The Girl Who Played with Fire (2009)

7/10 | IMDb | Daniel Alfredson

The "Girl..." movies are pop thrillers about a reclusive introverted antisocial bisexual computer hacker with a troubled past. I like her for the same reasons I like the Suicide Girls. There's something sexy, I think, about girls who ruin themselves with tattoos, piercings and bad haircuts and who make out with other girls. I'm not sure that I like these movies for the reasons that I'm supposed to like them due to what I percieve as an apparent (and baffling) disinterest in Lisbeth on the behalf of the writers and directors as a sex object (though according to articles I've read Fincher may have corrected this) but I like them anyway.
