This is the 3rd in the Lisbeth Salander series with a new actor as the heroine each time. For this outing, Claire Foy plays the advanced hacker and revenge stalker. Faced with a device that leads to nuclear destruction (yawn), she embarks on a complex mission to deter the culprits. While this is more like a spy thriller, it still has some cool sequences and inventive shots. On the other hand, much of the character’s distinctive qualities from the first outings has been replaced with her superhero status, while some of the exploits rely too much on coincidences that stretch credibility. Still, it was mostly entertaining and visually fun.
