I personally loved this movie. Though I wouldn't recommend it to everyone. If you're a fan of the movies I'd consider it worth your time. Though at times you lose the true Lecter feel, it was very g... ood. At first I only thought the movie was ok...then it grew on me. (Plus I loved Rhys Ifans as Grutas) It was very entertaining to watch the transition of a little boy into the cannibal we know and love today. So despite all the bad reviews on this movie, I really enjoyed it. Full Review

I thought that the story that made Hannibal was very touching. I felt pity for him throughout the film. They portrayed him extremly well when it came to his humanity and how he lost his empathy for hu... mans. Sad as his past was, I don't think I would have acted any differently. This film helped people relate to the issues of personal suffering and the desire for justice.I hope they keep Gaspard Ulliel in the following epics as Hannibals career in psychiatry continues.He was also extremly handsome and captivating. I felt like I was there. Excellent job!! Full Review

This movie's poor rating is well deserved due to its ridiculous screen play about WWII Nazi's and the Holocaust. It detracts from the Hanibal theme, bizzare as it is, and sends the story in another ab... surd direction.Was the director, producer and writer trying to justify why Hanibal eats people, or recount the horrros of WWII and the Holocaust? They blended two unrelated movie themes together and neither one worked.Save you money and pass this clunker by. Full Review
