Movie Haiku:Disappointing remake of the Swedish adaptation of part one of Stieg Larsson''s phenomenally successful trilogy about a crusading journalist & his multi-talented research assistant. Alas, despite Fincher''s whiz bang technique the energy feels forced from outside instead of exploding inside out, & Mara playing "Lisbeth Salander" looks like someone dressed up for Halloween.
