The book received a 76% from The Lit Review based on 30 critic reviews and the consensus of the reviews being," The final book in the Millennium Series picks up where the last one left off in terms of story and quality. In order to understand it you’ll need to read the others, but the whole trilogy is worth the time and effort."
Review aggregation website Rotten Tomatoes gave the film a score of 53% based on 125 reviews, with an average score of 5.8/10, the consensus being, "Slow and mostly devoid of the stellar chemistry between its two leads, The Girl Who Kicked the Hornets' Nest is a disappointingly uneven conclusion to the Millennium trilogy."
