girl with the dragon tattoo

The stacked girl with the dragon tattoo against some impressive competition. Tom Cruise Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol is a clear winner, surprising to a great extent. The fourth entry in the popular action franchise, helmed by JJ Super Geek esque villain favorite since the Abrams pulled the last batch, at $ 26.5 million over the weekend. Robert Downey Jr. / Jude Law Victorian bromance flick Sherlock Holmes: The Game shadows distance of the race in second place, with $ 17.8 million. But what about the dragon tattoo? $ 13 million.

Ouch.

Says Jeff Bock of Exhibitor Relations,

    "For the first time from $ 13 million during the holiday season is equivalent to a piece of coal, especially for the film to reach the length of this fanfare than that."

He was right. All the ingredients were there. Stieg Larsson bestseller, even after his death, the source of the material published. Trent Reznor Karen O "Immigrant Song" cover. The film adaptation of the former Swedish achieved $ 104 million worldwide. David Fincher. Rooney Mara. Daniel Craig.

Why?

Perhaps because it is not what you want the masses this time of year. The girl with the dragon tattoo the progress of the intellectual rather than adventure. It offers a postmodern ethics in the traditional values ​​rather than a holiday. Instead of humor, and news of joy, and we are treated to film the graphic rape and violence against women.

Back to Facebook:

    "The theme is very alarming and stubborn at the end of the day, as we saw earlier this fall with the engine, these films are not relevant in many cases with viewers, especially during the holiday season."

I saw the film yesterday. Performance by Craig and Mara was particularly stunning and magnetism. The film industry, and mood, aesthetic, (hell, the opening credit sequence), a beautiful and haunting, even when crossed into a terrible movie (and believe me, any time of the year, and some scenes were too graphic). Which is an excellent adaptation. It's just the wrong time for that.

But he bounced back from Venture worse. One does not question his credibility as a director or to see the file. Critics have been taken with the tower, even if it were not the masses. A little film no one has heard from ever called Fight Club sits on the throne of the Kingdom of the worship of the situation.
