Based on the best-selling, and thoroughly enjoyably fast paced, novel by Stieg Larsson. The film adaptation has been a box office sensation all around Europe and is sure to have you on the edge of your seat throughout this powerful action packed thriller. Dan Brown was never this good.

With the help of the enigmatic, and darkly secretive, computer hacker Lisbeth Sander, they begin to discover the shocking truth that lies behind the influential Vanger family.
