The Girl Who Played with Fire

Sweden

The second installment in this trilogy. Fast-paced, sometimes violent, compelling story and characters...this was an up-to-date thriller.

The lead actress - Noomi Rapace - dominates here even though her performance is mostly non verbal. The scenario of a small woman who has been horribly abused tracking down her abusers has great resonance and has been used many times. It still works.

Well done.
