I agree. The original Swedish Film was very good. Noomi Rapace was phenomenal. Not sure why there needs to be an American Remake (even though Fincher says its not) when the original was only 2 years old. Seriously, does Hollywood even know how to be creative on its own anymore? Remakes, Reboots and Sequels seem to be the majority of blockbusters nowadays. Not surprised they remade this film so fast because of the proven track record the original film had. Hollywood did the same thing with "Let the Right One In" Okay, I'm getting off my hipster movie podium now.
