It was a made for TV movie afterall. I agree with this mostly. The books divide nicely. The first, more of a mystery. Second, more action. Third, more intrigue. I found the movies decent but fairly flat and am looking forward to the remake. I didn't like that the Millennium magazine + Erika character pretty well a tiny subplot. What was almost most interesting is that the two main characters are really only together in the first book/movie and then apart the rest of the time.

the "free-wheeling" sexuality that was part of the books and gave them a kind of modern, Swedish sensibility--Erika was part of that equation-- wasn't represented fully in the films...I worry that Hollywood will probably oversensationalize things...I'm betting these humble Swedish films will be the best we can expect of any cinematic representation of the these books...hope I'm wrong
