Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest, The

After being shot three times while defending herself from her scarred, abusive, Russian spy father (Georgi Staykov) and crazed half-brother (Micke Spreitz ) and recuperating at a Swedish hospital under the care of a kindhearted doctor (Aksel Morisse) in this powerful, riveting, convoluted, gritty, superbly written, well-acted, 148-minute final installment of Stieg Larsson's Millenium trilogy (that is, The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo and The Girl Who Played with Fire), a caring journalist (Michael Nyqvist), a magazine editor (Lena Endre), and her lawyer (Annika Hallin) help gather evidence against numerous guilty parties(Lennart Hjulström, Jan Holmquist, et al.), including a prominent psychiatrist (Anders Ahlbom), when the mohawk-wearing, revenge-driven, victimized computer hacker (Noomi Rapace) goes on trial for attempted murder in Stockholm.
