What is it about David Fincher that makes film critics luv him so? He always does films about sociopaths and usually has some ultravi sex scene, but most of the time it's a brooding exercise in storytelling. Sure, sure, Fight Club, Se7en, great films - the remake of Dragon Tattoo, well, it was just a remake which I liked at first but then decided later it was just a remake, and Social Network, I just watched that to see the credits ;-).
Rosamund Pike is up for an Oscar for this. Yea, she's really good in it and reminded me a lot of Emily VanCamp in Revenge. But the film is ruined by Ben Asschin. He's terrible. I'm still mad at him for ruining Jennifer Garner. This is a long film, longer than it needs to be, and the first few plot twists are very predictable. Maybe the rest were too, but I got tired of working at it. It's not a bad film, enjoyable even, except for the fact that Asschin has way too much screentime. It should have all been about Rosamund.
