“If it weren't for a little lady named Lisbeth Salander, and her creator Stieg Larsson, Americans might forever think of Sweden as a Socialist utopia, famous only for flat-pack furniture, universal healthcare, and ABBA. In the second film adaptation of Larsson's Millennium trilogy, which has sold a whopping 7.2 million copies worldwide, actress Noomi Rapace reprises her role as Salander. This bisexual, kickboxing, motorcycle-riding, cyber-punk heroine is hell-bent on exposing the most powerful men in Swedish society as the villainous sex offenders Larsson imagined them to be. Rapace spent seven months training for the role with a Serbian boxing coach, and is a terror and delight to behold as she wipes that smirk off Sweden's face.”

Landmark Theatres says:
In the highly anticipated second installment of the Millennium Trilogy, Lisbeth Salander (Noomi Rapace) is a wanted woman. A researcher and a Millennium journalist about to expose the truth about the sex trade in Sweden are brutally murdered, and Salander's prints are on the weapon. Meanwhile, Mikael Blomkvist (Michael Nyqvist), Editor-in-Chief of Millennium, will not believe what he hears on the news. Digging deeper, Blomkvist unearths some heart-wrenching facts about Salander's past life.
