The film drops significantly when characters act foolishly to advance plot points, then recovers when the sisters finally confront their shared trauma.
The film starts promisingly with Lisbeth's vigilante introduction but struggles in the middle act as reviewers found the plotting clumsy and characters acting irrationally. The emotional peak comes when the sisters confront their childhood trauma, though the ending feels rushed compared to previous franchise entries.
