RE: "The Girl Who Kicked the Hornets Nest": Thank God it's over . . . .

My wife had read all 3 books. We had rented the 1st movie, then streamed the next 2 from Netflix. Subtitles were not distracting. First book introduces us the Lisbeth, but she isn't the center of the story. She is the point of the next 2 stories and your reaction to the actress and the character will color your opinion of the films.

I thought they were OK...probably would not have spent money to see them in the theater. But at home they were ok. My wife thought the movies were reasonably faithful to the books.

Best,

Ross
