I saw Hannibal last night and I have to say it was the worst film I have seen in the cinema since I can remember. It is a travesty to the memory of Silence of the Lambs with under written characters, no subtlety, a skewed narrative which fails to efface moments of transition and a lot of down right silly moments. I wept for Lector and Starling. They have taken the characters and poohed on them from a grand height. Oh yeah and Ridely Scott was totally the wrong director to choose. Over produced and overly violent for the sake of it. The only saving graces were Anthony Hopkin who hams things up but is still watchable and Julianne more who struggles with a bad script but manages to maintain some integrity.
Frankly it was doomed to failure from the start, with all parties involved seeing pound signs before their eyes before a good story.
Another sequel to add to the 'Must miss' list.
