It seems the movie industry hasn’t gotten the memo that embargoes are meant to be broken. The movie news site, Thompson on Hollywood, reports that “Scott Rudin is pissed. And so is Sony,” because The New Yorker film critic David Denby reviews The Girl with the DragonTattoo, in the current issue, a week ahead of the Dec. 13 embargo.

He calls it a “a bleak but mesmerizing piece of filmmaking [that] offers a glancing, chilled view of a world in which brief moments of loyalty flicker between repeated acts of betrayal.” Just the thing for the holidays.

A new eight-minute trailer for the movie was released on Friday (see it below, or watch a high-res version free at the iTunes store). It opens on 12/21.
