"The Girl in the Spider's Web" has some of the worst character decision making I've ever seen in a movie.


I understand that movies aren't going to be totally realistic, but the decisions of some of the characters were just too ridiculous for me. First off, Lisbeth is supposed to be this incredible hacker who managed to hack into the NSA and steal the firefall program, but she didn't mask her IP address. Really? Someone with the ability to hack the NSA didnt know to mask their IP address?Then there's the guy with the hole in his face. A vicious gang dismembered his face, and he doesn't even hesitate to give the journalist information about them. If a highly sophisticated crime syndicate turned my face into swiss cheese, I wouldn't give out any information about them to God himself, but this random journalist walks in and he just starts spilling the beans.Then there's the fucking kid. He saw his father get killed and an hour later after getting saved by Lisbeth, he stops in the middle of a parking garage while they are looking for a getaway vehicle and stares at a Lamborghini. Really kid? You just saw your father get murked an hour earlier, and now youre mesmerized over a Lamborghini? And lisbeth actually steals it. Instead of taking the nondescript suv, which would have come in handy considering its winter in Sweden and there's a psychotic gang hell bent on finding and murdering them, she actually takes the flashy, low to the ground, sports car.Then the kid answers his cell phone at the secret hideout because the caller id showed it was his dad calling. This kid is supposed to be a fucking genius, and he actually believed his dead dad was calling his cell. A genius kid should have realized that the bad guys had his dad's phone and were trying to track him. I really don't understand how Lisbeth lost at chess to this kid without realizing it.Then there's the journalist guy. This guy is desperately searching for the identity of the man trying to kill Lisbeth, and he's getting nowhere, until his lover walks in and mentions that the guy is probably Russian. Then all of a sudden, he grabs a framed magazine from the wall and smashes the glass and turns exactly to the page where the guy's picture is. Really man? It never hit you that it was the same guy featured in your magazine, but knowing that he was possibly Russian is was instantly tipped you off?I haven't even talked about the dumb scenes like the guy who snapped his leg in half and somehow is still able to walk through the forest with only a limp.TL:DR This movie is dumb. via /r/movies http://bit.ly/2Wc8KnS
