The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo films have become afflicted with "franchisitis" - they've become weaker by the sequel. This is primarily due to its switching (and choice) of the actress who plays heroine Lisbeth Salander: Noomi Rapace brought fiery originality to the role, Rooney Mara weakened it by her wooden presence, and now Claire Foy ... with all her acting competence, I'm uncertain what she's brought to it. And the story (not written by the original trilogy's Stieg Larsson) adds an evil sister, numerous impossible situations, and a warning: this franchise is far from over.
