''The Millennium Trilogy'' is a series of Swedish thrillers starring Creator/NoomiRapace and Creator/MichaelNyquist, adapted from ''Literature/TheMillenniumTrilogy'' by the late Swedish author and journalist Stieg Larsson.
In ''The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo'', disgraced journalist Mikael Blomkvist, facing financial ruin in the wake of a libel case, is offered a lifeline when reclusive businessman Martin Vanger hires him to investigate the mysterious disappearance of Martin's grandniece Harriet several decades earlier. To find the truth, Blomkvist must navigate the dark corners of Vanger's family history, but thankfully, he is assisted by Lisbeth Salander, a brilliant young hacker with some dark secrets and a deep, seething hatred for rapists and sexual abusers.
In ''The Girl Who Played with Fire'', two of Blomkvist's colleagues are murdered, and Salander appears to be the main culprit. Blomkvist would really like to talk with Salander, but she is busy dodging the police and trying to avoid confronting her dark past. Meanwhile, both Blomkvist and Salander find themselves in the crosshairs of a deep and sinister conspiracy.
In ''The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest'', Lisbeth is on trial for murder while still recovering from life-threatening injuries, Blomkvist is searching for ways to help her, and the conspiracy launches its final moves to save itself.

!!This series contains examples of:
* AbortedArc: Janne Dahlmann, one of the ''Millennium'' editors, takes a payoff to feed info to Wennerström. When Malin discovers it, she and Erika decide to keep him on in order to feed disinformation. Except they never actually do it, and it's not mentioned again until Erika fires him at the end.
* AdaptationDyeJob: The ''Dragon Tattoo'' movie depict Harriet as a blonde, while the book has her as a brunette [[spoiler:who dyes her hair blonde when she goes into hiding.]]
* AdaptationExplanationExtrication: There was some complaint that, the couple times Blomkvist is shot at, he keeps his calm as though he were James Bond instead of a civilian journalist. The thing is, Sweden had compulsive military service until 2010; the book goes into a small amount of detail about Blomkvist's experiences in the armed forces.
* AgeLift: Creator/MichaelNyqvist and Creator/NoomiRapace were both older than Mikael and Lisbeth are in the books.
* BondageIsBad: Changed between books and films; it's bad in ''Dragon Tattoo'' [[spoiler:when Bjurman ties Lisbeth up and rapes her]], but Lisbeth freely lets Miriam tie her up gently when they meet in ''Played With Fire''. In the ''Played With Fire'' movie, Lisbeth all but states that you would only be into bondage as a top if you were a sadistic pig and a rapist, but at the time she is talking ''to a rapist'', so it all evens out.
* BookEnds: In the Swedish trilogy - the first lines of ''Dragon Tattoo'' are spoken by a reporter for SVT - a very pregnant Alexandra Pascalidou in a NewscasterCameo, who's reporting on the outcome of Mikael Blomkvist's libel trial. She makes another appearance (significantly less pregnant) close to the end of ''Hornet's Nest,'' this time reporting on [[spoiler: the newly exposed Secret Section within Sapo.]]
* TheImmodestOrgasm: Not a classic example in that there's no wailing or screaming, but in the film Lisbeth is very audibly enjoying herself the first time she and Mikael have sex.
* PragmaticAdaptation: Many of the characters have been changed from the books to the films for the sake of brevity. In addition many subplots were cut. For example in the book Lisbeth leaves Mikael because she catches him with Erika and is heartbroken. In the Swedish films Erika and Mikael do not have a physical relationship, instead Lisbeth simply leaves Sweden because she is afraid of falling in love. This happens less in the first American film, which is a few minutes longer (Mikael and Erika's physical relationship has been restored, for example), but still appears occasionally. The Mikael-Erika relationship does appear in the uncut TV version, though.
** TheFilmOfTheBook hits most of the high notes, but simplifies a few matters for the sake of streamlining the plot. Henrik's offer to give Mikael evidence about Wennerström and his buying a stake in ''Millennium'' are left out, as is Mikael's daughter being the one who figures out the "Leviticus" references, and Anita is killed off [[spoiler: instead of being Harriet's helper]]. Some events in the timeline are shifted around as well, and the various ''Millennium'' employees have maybe five minutes total screen time.
** The change to ultimate fates of Anita [[spoiler: and Harriet]] were done mainly [[spoiler: so that the producers of both films could avoid the extra expense of going to Australia just to shoot two scenes.]]
* ProductPlacement: The movie is filled with this for Swedish companies, including an almost gratuitous promoting of SVT, the public service channel. There's a rather perverse ValuesDissonance to it since Larsson was a noted communist and it's highly unlikely he'd have approved. There's also a bit of a TakeThat to SVT in the book, when Mikael buys a small TV with a rabbit-ear antenna (to pick up the broadcast channel SVT) for his stay in Hedeby. His neighbors invite him over to their house if he ever wants to watch anything on ''real'' TV.
* SpotlightStealingSquad: While the original books have Blomkvist and Salander as equal protagonists, the [[TheFilmOfTheBook Swedish movies]] go out of their way to make Salander the star. Her weaknesses are cut back (most notably her social awkwardness), portraying her as less of a flawed human and more of an invincible force of nature. Blomkvist suffers in that his intelligence and journalistic competence are lowered in order to make Salander more intelligent by comparison.
* VomitIndiscretionShot: Employed to rather distressing effect after [[spoiler:Bjurman forces Lisbeth to give him oral sex for money.]]
