thinks lisbeth is written as sucha cliché with the whole everyone-who-has-a-piercing-or-tattoo-is-a-miserable-mysterious-bitch-thing and i have never been as embarrased for my country and DONE in my whole life when swedens probably worst actor (he isn't even an actor omg) paolo roberto appeared. - DirectorDavid FincherStarsDaniel CraigRooney MaraChristopher PlummerJournalist Mikael Blomkvist is aided in his search for a woman who has been missing for 40 years by young computer hacker Lisbeth Salander.
- DirectorTomas AlfredsonStarsKåre HedebrantLina LeanderssonPer RagnarOskar, an overlooked and bullied boy, finds love and revenge through Eli, a beautiful but peculiar girl.they changed too much about the oskar character and it felt so narrowed down. should have been a 3 part á 1 hour mini series instead, i missed a lot of great parts from the book.

movie: 8 - DirectorReza BagherStarsMax EnderforsAndreas af EnehielmJarmo MäkinenTwo boys grow up together in the town of Pajala during the 1960s. United by rock'n'roll music.the book is more or less exactly like the script to the movie, only one chapter that falls away so it's really no need to read it if you've seen it. when i was 15 (when it came out) i would have given it 8/10 but now 6/10.
- DirectorJames MangoldStarsWinona RyderAngelina JolieClea DuVallA directionless teenager, Susanna, is rushed to Claymoore, a mental institution, after a supposed suicide attempt. There, she befriends a group of troubled women who deeply influence her life.omg compared to the book this movie is PURE FICTION! i mean, they couldn't even give the characters the right hair colour, not even such a small detail was accurate.
i DO love the movie and the book but i don't get how you can make a movie from someones biography and change everything in it, whats the point with filming it in the first place?
just feels like a complete lack of respect towards susanna and her REAL life story. - StarsJonas KarlssonFrida WesterdahlPer SandbergFredrik lives in a beautiful house, with a wonderful wife and their lovely children. But what's going on in the house? What's the matter with Fredrik? Why has his family turned their back on him? The Man Below the Stairs is based on Marie Hermansson's novel with the same name: "The Man Below the Stairs".i really don't get the ridiculously low vote, among the best ive seen from swedish television. sickenly creepy book and series. give both 8.5/10
