Not quite the movie Silence of the Lambs was. Dr. Lecter lost much of his elegance and charm in this movie. I felt like the movie played too much... e an action film which wasn't what I was expecting or wanted after loving Silence of the Lambs Full Review

It's unmissable, flaws and all, because riveting suspense spiced with diabolical laughs and garnished with a sprig of kinky romance add up to the tastiest dish around.Full Review

Hannibal lacks the rounded emotional elegance of ''The Silence of the Lambs'' (that was a great film; this one is merely good).Full Review

Entertainment Weekly

The continuing saga of one of contemporary literature and cinema's most fascinating villains, as played once again with exquisite taste and riveting force by Anthony Hopkins.Full Review

''The Silence of the Lambs'' was a classic; Hannibal is only a good movie of its type.Full Review

Boston Globe

A carnival geek show elevated in the direction of art. It never quite gets there, but it tries with every fiber of its craft to redeem its pulp origins, and we must give it credit for the courage of its depravity.Full Review
