The Girl in the Spider’s Web, 2018.

New filmmakers, new actors, hell, this new Dragon Tattoo story comes from a new author (David Lagercrantz), even if the opening credits (far less stylishly mood setting than the brilliance David Fincher accomplished with his overall worthy but noticeable step down remake of the first film within the original Swedish trilogy) snakily try their best with smooth wording to make audiences think they’re watching something adapted from one of the excellent Stieg Larson novels.

And while I can’t speak for the talent of the book writer penning the fourth chapter in this series (I’ve never read any of the novels in all honesty, but have seen every film), Claire Foy is a talented up and comer (in terms of film, anyway, as she is apparently remarkable on the television series The Crown) and Fede Alvarez somehow made a reimagining of The Evil Dead that was as female-empowering as it was outlandishly gory. Ignoring whether or not all of these new ingredients justify continuing the franchise, it’s hard to deny that some eye-catching names are attached to The Girl in the Spider’s Web.

It’s a stain on everyone’s resume.

The Girl in the Spider’s Web opens with a pair of young sisters playing chess, where one of them is soon prompted to enter the bedroom of their father, a cretinous, disgusting, and vile human being. He plans to sexually molest one of them (and generally appears to be a horrible person) but not before a child Lisbeth Salander risks her own life backing out of a second-story window, falling to the ground in hopes of escaping the clutches of such abusive and traumatic upbringing.

It’s a dark, but perfectly fine setup for some inevitable personal drama and a sibling rivalry, further exploring such pertinent material in the #MeToo era. Unfortunately, the sisters are given surface value personalities and not much to work with acting-wise; it’s never a good sign when a villain says “why did you never save me” and your reaction is “good point”. Lisbeth (Claire Foy) does give a reason, and a believable one at that, but it’s also hard to take seriously in the context of this preposterous and boneheaded thriller where hacking is treated like a magic trick and male characters walk through snowy landscapes despite breaking lower leg bones. Logic has been lost.
