She's back. Lisbeth Salander, the waif who can out-fight, out-smart and out-hack any guy in the Universe, is at it again. In the second installment of the late Stieg Larsson's "Millennium Trilogy," she takes on the man who wounded her both mentally and physically, creating the flawed and wounded gal that fascinates both readers and movie-goers.
Lisbeth not only plays with fire in this movie — also the second in the series — she plays with guns, too, ones that shoot bullets and others that stun. And she also fiddles with the minds of everyone unlucky enough to shamble onto her path. And that includes journalist Michael "Fucking" Blomkvist, who spends most of the movie ten paces behind her.
"Fire" clears up some of the questions that remained at the end of "Dragon Tattoo," but not all. For that we need book and movie No. 3.
