Having enjoyed the movies then their DVD versions I was surprised to discover this extended pack and had to compare it with the cinema and single-disc experiences.
These extended versions of the films are the original TV productions with much of the storyline retained, giving you far more depth to the story and the motivations of the characters, plus additional plotlines to flesh out the entire story.
This is an extra two hours of film and I strongly recommend everyone to choose this over any other current offering.

These extended sets at last make sense and are now close enough to the massive tomes by Larsson. I found the whole program captivating and the length was the least of my worries. It is a complex story and it takes some concentration to remember who is who. No familiar faces from American or British cinema to help! The Swedes have done a great job here. Tak! This is a thrilling package that will have most people on the edge of their seats. The sound is excellent and even the English dub has been done with taste to retain the essential Swedish feel. No Texan drawl or Yorkshire slang here. The picture in part one was a bit soft but got better as the rest of the tale progressed. There is no comparison with the original cut releases, this is the set to get. I had only one minor grumble: It would have been even better if the option to run the two parts together without the exit and enty sections had been available. This would have been easy with seamless branching. The paper packing got a hard time in the mail, I would have preferred a standard slim-line box. Excellent value.

The Girl trilogy
The three film were great, and a great watch, not every ones cup of tea, as none of the actors were main stream.

Better than Hollywood version
This is awesome (and I hate that word). The original Scandinavian version is 9 hours long, conveniently cut into 6 one-and-a-half hour episodes, two episodes on each disc. Read more
