craigoxbrowJames Bond is her sidekick.
She's about four times more awesome than necessary to resolve the plot (and subplots) in The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo. In complexity terms it's a bit like dropping Batman on an unusually nasty episode of CSI. Which may be why she doesn't actually join the main plot until halfway through.
Not having read the books, I was prepared for the almost unrelenting grimness of the subject matter and some of the events, but not for the horrible-but-minor-origin-story-ness of Lisbeth's first subplot and the "uh, really?" daftness of some of the plot twists.
Still a great intro sequence.
Trailers: Young Magneto versus sex addiction, Liam Neeson Versus The Arctic Circle (having already defeated Paris and Berlin he needs a larger target), MIB3 looking a tad out of place, Clint Eastwood versus J. Edgar Hoover, and Steven Spielberg, Loki, Sherlock and a horse versus the Kaiser. None having any of the "gotta see this opening day" factor of the trailer for above.
