Better pace Phil since her character and Michaels needed less screen time to develop with introductions out of the way. I don't wanna spill any spoilers by accident so I'll shut my trap. You wanna borrow the DVD? You don't have to wait y'know

Thanks, Jack. I got it on streaming video on the web. Same site I saw the first one. Better pace...Sounds more exciting! I should finish the movie by tomorrow.
Did not like the second one (..played with fire) much at all. Lost the most interesting part of #1 which was girl's relationship w/reporter by keeping them separate most of the movie, and basically devolves like the first into 'just another psycho killer' flick. Only thing that elevated the first to me above standard grisly fare was the relationship as noted and the two lead performances, Naomi Rapace particularly.
There were two significant characters I found all too formulaic. Okay I'm shutting my trap now. Lemme know when you watch it Phil! My lip is bleeding.
Outside of the central relationship, I think the whole thing(s) is formulaic, so it really comes down to style of the storytelling and performances. And I find the style more workmanlike than inspired.
We'll see what Fincher does with the American version.

David Fincher is on tap to do it. They wanted to cast Naomi Rapace but she turned them down.

Don't know about the lead, but great cast otherwise. Would be surprised if Daniel Craig wasn't excellent as the reporter. The writer, Steve Zaillian has an oscar or two I think.

why would they want to do a remake of this film which is only 2 years old?
It reminds me of that lame movie out of England two years ago called Death At A Funeral. No sooner than a few weeks out of the box office the same titled movie showed up with all African American actors. What gives with stuff like that. And if no Noomi Rapace what's the point of seeing it

At an average cost of $75m or so a pic, Hollywood has become entirely risk adverse. Decisions are made on modeled predicted domestic returns and overseas appeal (already tested and known in this case) with an eye always toward creating a 'franchise', which this would be.
As an aside, if you haven't seen it, check out 'Layer Cake' with Daniel Craig. It's the movie that secured him James Bond, and it's got the best opening 15 min. of any film I saw in '05. The rest is great too.

If the opening is better than the first 15 minutes of Caino Royale, I am going to have to take a tranquilizer before watching it
I thought the opening of CR was by far the best of "any" James Bond Film and I have seen them all starting with Dr No
Just finished the movie, Jack. You can unseal your lips now. LOL
Is there still a part 3 to this?
