Movie #351 ........................."The Girl Who Played with Fire"

Movie #351 "The Girl Who Played with Fire" was more violent than the first one, more intense, more confusing, I would think, for people who haven't read the book. Gee, I read all the books and I was confused from the start. It's those darn names and places. They left A LOT out --- like the whole opening of the second book --- and I really missed all the texting that I remember went on between the two leads (where was all of that?) and lots of characters (They didn't introduce any female cops, weren't there a bunch of them, at least Modig, Bublanski's assistant? --- I think she was there, but named I think once) Another thing missing was all the smarts Salander always uses to get info............missing. She shows up and the viewer assumes she looked up all this stuff, but missing in film --- I guess it wouldn't be so interesting to see someone messing with the computer (just look into our windows now and you'll see two (what looks like ) sedentary people plucking away at the computer), but film people are creative --- they could show some of it. So I guess I was a bit disappointed --- I really, really liked this book ---- almost as much as the first (sorry, I liked the serial killer storyline (as gruesome as it was) in the first book) But the cat and mouse chase I still liked in this book and some of it was here, but there were just too many unanswered questions, and don't even bother with this if you haven't read the book. uh uh~ no way~
