The original Swedish version and the author being from that country seems to capture the story much better. He wrote a trilogy and all three were made into movies in Sweden, only the first one was made here. The author has died since these films became big.
If you get the original 2009, you'll have a choice of foreign language with subtitles or the actors dubbed with English. Set it on the foreign, and just read along. It's really a great film.
2009 Swedish version (very good)
2011 American version (not so good)

Agree that the Swedish version is much better.
