Dont judge me because I sin differently than you.
If you want it sugar coated, dont ask me what i think! It would violate TOS.

I didn't like how they changed the ending and I feel like a lot of the plot twists that were present in the book were absent in the movie. Anyway, the overall story is still amazing and everyone should read the series!

I got the books with high hopes, but frankly, I disliked them.

I would have enjoyed the first Swedish movie better had not I been trying to read the subtitles on my mother's small TV and having to explain things to her throughout the movie. IIRC, the second Swedish movie left out a major plot point in the beginning, which kept me guessing during the book.

I would like to see the American version(s).

The film clarified the characters who were dense in the book.
