However, not all American adaptations are horrible. David Fincher's "Girl With the Dragon Tattoo" is a prime example of how to produce a foreign film for American audiences.

I would argue that I actually prefer it to the Swedish version of the film, mostly thanks to Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross' glorious musical score and Rooney Mara's performance (and tattooing abilities).
