Mikael Blomkvist, publisher of Millennium magazine, has made his living exposing
the crooked and corrupt practices of establishment Swedish figures. So when a
young journalist approaches him with a meticulously researched thesis about sex
trafficking in Sweden and those in high office who abuse underage girls,
Blomkvist immediately throws himself into the investigation.
Presented in 1080p utilizing the AVC codec (at an average bitrate of 18Mbps),
The Girl Who Played with Fire offers a reasonably proficient visual
experience despite the presence of several less-than-ideal nuances. Beginning
with a discussion of clarity, the film contains a reasonable level of depth and
precision during the well-lit sequences, but there's an unfortunate drop off in
the consistency of fine object detail during nighttime shots. Part of the
problem lies in subpar shade differentiation that plagues such sequences,
leaving shadow details underdeveloped and lacking in definition (a perfect
example is the lesbian sex scene around the 20 minute mark). The other part of
the equation is a dependence on orange and yellow lighting in most of the darker
shots, which rarely expose every detail caught by the indirect light.
Unfortunately, these intricacies in the visual presentation temper my enthusiasm
for what's otherwise a fairly strong transfer, which is a shame when you
consider they're merely stylistic choices on the part of the filmmakers. Though
I never saw the film theatrically, I believe what we're witnessing on the
Blu-ray presentation is a faithful portrayal of the cinematographer's
intentions.
Moving away from the weaknesses of the low-light sequences,
there's not much to complain about. Color accuracy appears natural and unaltered
in daylight scenes, there's no edge enhancement to speak of, and we find enough
subtle film grain to eliminate any suspicion of DNR application. All in all,
this is transfer that does a lot of things right, but fails to break into the
upper echelon of high definition potential.
Those who've read my prior review of
The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo may
recall my suggestion that viewers move beyond the presence of two lossy tracks
and give the Blu-ray a chance. Apparently that was then, and this is now. I'm
not sure what changed in my viewing of
The Girl Who Played with Fire, but
I continued to find elements in the Swedish audio presentation that required the
added benefit of a lossless offering. For example, listen to the car chase
sequence around the midpoint of the film, when Lisbeth's boxing instructor
pursues a large van down a crowded city street. Combining the rumble of a
shifting engine with the whoosh of cars flying by, the sequence has the makings
of an adrenaline-infused kick to the jaw, effectively breaking up the more
cerebral moments in the film. Instead, the effects sound decent enough to remind
us of what we're missing, but fail to place viewers directly in the heart of the
action. This essentially translates into a presentation that shouldn't
necessarily be labeled a disappointment, but barely deserves a passing grade
(which is mostly earned through reasonable vocal clarity and adequate volume
balance in the dialog).
Though I sampled the English dubbed option, I
found the voice acting a bit weak for my liking. I can confirm the technical
quality is on par with the Swedish language track, but would recommend viewers
stick with native language if at all possible.Blu-ray DVD Movies Disc - The Girl Who Played with Fire Features
