The Girl in the Spider’s Web combines thrilling espionage with deep character exploration. Claire Foy delivers a compelling performance as Lisbeth Salander, bringing fresh depth to the character. While the film’s pacing occasionally falters, its gripping action sequences and complex villain make it a worthy continuation of the Millennium series. Some critics felt it lacked the originality of its predecessors, but it remains a solid watch for fans of the genre.
