The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo Free Online
An intrigue fueled slow building thriller, "The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo" is a refreshingly different take on the "whodunit" crime genre. This Swedish movie has loads of great cinematography, taking advantage of the beautiful Swedish country side as well as framing the eerie story. The principal characterizations are quite well suited by the cast who fit naturally in the roles they play with great realism. Like I have already noted this is a much different presentation as compared with American filmed crime thrillers. Even though this obviously has a well-funded budget it is grittier and less commercialized thus lending a realism over glossiness. The music score also adds quite a bit of ominous darkness.
I guess if you want to be overly critical you could punch a hole or two here or there, but I think this story comes off so most all viewers will ignore any inconsistencies in favor of the mysterious pieces which, eventually, add up, but not too fast – keeping the viewer invested and hoping to figure out how it may all end.
Though graphic at times, it isn't "porn-horror", "The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo" is a dark story where the unsettling pieces fit. I am fairly certain it will not be released in the US, but if you can see it do so as it is a well crafted and executed drama.

Dr. Martin Harris (Liam Neeson) and his wife Liz (January Jones) arrive in Berlin for a biotechnology summit. Upon arriving at their hotel, Martin realizes he forgot his briefcase at the airport. He takes a taxicab driven by Gina (Diane Kruger), but on the way to the airport, the cab crashes off a bridge into the river after narrowly avoiding a refrigerator that falls off a delivery truck. Martin is knocked unconscious upon impact, but Gina saves him from drowning before fleeing from the scene. On Thanksgiving day, he comes to at the hospital after being in a coma for four days.Martin returns to his hotel, only to discover that his wife who proclaims to not know him, is with another man who says he's Dr.Martin Harris.
Unknown has a tremendous premise and a great actor in the lead role, Liam Neeson. However, this film did not succeed and the main reason is because of its execution. The plot is, in fact, quite interesting, there's quite a bit of action and the acting is pretty good. And I must say that the twist was not at all what I expected and it will be extremely difficult for anyone to predict it.
Having said that, the way all these bits were put together did not make a very good film. It has a lot of potential but it never really reaches and ends up being a very mediocre thriller. Much inferior to Liam Neeson's last action thriller, Taken, for instance.

The premise basically is ripped off from five or so movies. But with that being said you don't notice that. The film is dark and creepy. What was confusing is the time period in this movie really can't be placed. It seemed like current time, but then all of the props were from the 1980's. There were a few things that made this movie actually kinda creepy. The dark abysmal setting and the old women was just strange. She made the movie much more watchable. Without her and this movie would have just been terrible. The main actress was OK enough. Wasn't bad at all and kinda hot. The music in the film made me like it more. Creepy and unobtrusive. How it should be in my opinion. I wouldn't go out of my way to recommend it but not that bad of a watch if you are into creepy films.

"The Prestige" is a great tale of rivalry, obsession, revenge and sacrifice. The unpredictable screenplay has many twists, disclosing unusual situations and hooking the attention of the viewer until the very last scene. Christopher Nolan, after the masterpiece "Memento", offers another excellent movie for the cinema lovers, better and better than the Oscar winner "The Departed". The amazing dispute between the outstanding Christian Bale and Hugh Jackman is supported by the extraordinary Michael Caine and a wonderful cinematography. My vote is nine.

Promoted as a Drama, Mystery, and Thriller, Dream House dragged on with a bit too much drama, it lacked enough mystery, and it drastically fell short to even qualify as a thriller on today's cinematic standards. The acting was on par with most A-list movies, but the delivery of the storyline left you feeling disappointed upon the ending of the movie. You will find yourself waiting for a twist and turn to occur at numerous times in the movie only to be disappointed when the scene changes and the movie continues to roll on to the next act without a noticeable climax to the scene that just passed. As a thriller, you will experience more suspense and fear by looking at the promotional marketing for this film than you will ever experience by actually watching this movie.
I'm giving this movie a 6 out of 10, due to the fact that the storyline actually had a lot of potential, so I actually wanted it to be good. Also, the acting was very good and the movie was only about 90 minutes long, which did help a lot since it did drag on at times. Other than that, it wasn't very thrilling, some scenes tended to seem noticeably unrealistic, and the lack of suspense during the movie, left you eager to just get to the end of the movie.

All Good Things" provides a fine example of the potential weaknesses in drama projects based on real-life events. The first two-thirds of the film has a strong script coupled with excellent performances, direction and cinematography, all working harmoniously together to tell the story of a doomed love affair between David and Katie Marks. David is the eldest son of the patriarch of a wealthy and politically connected NY real estate family. His charming facade conceals a fragile interior damaged through witnessing the violent suicide of his mother at a young age. He desires to live a simple life with the warmhearted, uncomplicated Katie, but his controlling father forces him to work in the part of the family business that hosts Times Square prostitution rackets. The internal and external pressures undermine David's stability, and the couple's marriage deteriorates into mutual distrust, substance abuse and physical assault - followed by Katie's suspicious disappearance.
The last third of the film is a mishmash of dramatized news reports and court proceedings, blended with dubious speculations and melodramatic faction - leading to a disappointing conclusion that reeks of lawyers supervising the screenplay. Ryan Gosling and Kirsten Dunst play the two lead roles with sensitivity and skill, but their efforts can't save a film that leaves one shrugging one's shoulders at all the manipulative theorizing.

Such films like this should be enshrined in museums, simply due to the fact it destroyed the entire genre of mystery films. While this film was unique and captivating, no other mystery will ever accomplish this sort of cult status, single handedly shaping a genre. While most mysteries try to shock you too often with twists and even more twists, it turns out to be overkill. This film encompassed such ideas with flair and originality, which is probably the reason Brian Singer is sticking to sci-fi action films. Only Memento and The Game are the only recent mystery movies worthy enough to stand beside this film. Sadly, Singer has somewhat sold out by doing the X-Men movies, but I guess trying to make films like this would be too taxing. This film will always bring a smile to my face when I watch it with someone who hasn't seen this movie. A good viewing every time I watch it, the new special edition DVD is awesome.
