The remains of the day 1993 trailer

Unlike the first movie which brought the audience into the film to be a participant in trying to piece together the clues and find out what is going on, this film makes the viewer passive. We dont work with the film, we simply see the twists and turns happening followed by expository dialogue while we shrug our heads. The violent scenes in The Girl Who Played with Fire mostly appear as if people are just moving their arms while grunting instead of appearing like a real fight. There is a scene in the film where two men are fighting inside a building and they simply follow the choreography of a fightthey reenact what a fight should look likeinstead of fighting naturally. They attack people with their arms while grunting every few seconds while their face remains emotionless. The fight scenes are certainly not convincing and there is even a use of slow-mo when falling from a fall, thereby making the fighting appear even less realistic. The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo seems as if the storyline, characters and actions are just going through the motions instead of having us buy into the manipulation that what is happening is real which is something necessary for all movies to achieve in order to succeed. There are one or two scenes of violence and shocks that do work and there is a line that Zala says to his daughter that did manage to put a lump in my throat, but there arent enough gripping moments in the film. The plot concerns a murder mystery where an editor was murdered because he was about to expose sex trafficking and one of the ring leaders the remains of the day 1993 trailer him to prevent this expose from being leaked. The answer to the mystery and what leads to it isnt interesting. One of the best parts of the first film was seeing Mikael Blomkvist Michael Nykvist and Lisbeth Salander Noomi Rapace working together and seeing the dynamics of their relationship. Unfortunately, Mikael and Lisbeth are separated through most of the film and for some reason neither of them is as interesting to watch as in The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo. I liked the characters of Mikael and Lisbeth and the audience felt some compassion for them, which this film doesnt have. Not even the bad guys in this film are menacing and interesting. Georgi Staykov as Alexander Zalachenko says mean things but isnt an interesting character and doesnt come across as evil enough. Zalachenckos henchman, the big, strong blonde man is also bland. There is no bite to any of the people where we are interested enough to care about the story. As uninvolving, uninspired, with dull characters and a story filled with plot holes and a lack of credibility, the movie does have its share of good lines, such as after a man is beaten up and taken to the hospital the remains of the day 1993 trailer visits him and asks how he is feeling. Wonderful is his expression. Another good scene is when Mikael goes to one of the pimps and tells him about the expose he is going to reveal about him and his illegal business. Dont you realize that this is going to ruin my life? the pimp says to Mikael. Yes, Mikael responds nonchalantly; then the two of them just stare at each other blankly as the scene ends. Unfortunately, there are too few good scenes in the film. I was really looking forward to The Girl Who Played with Fire, but the film underachieve and lacks the excitement, bite, originality, and well-drawn characters of The Girl With the Dragoon Tattoo. This film is strictly going through the motions. The first film seemed to care about what it was making and didnt let the success of the novels the movie is based on remove any artistic integrity.
