Hannibal

Not as scary as the Red Dragon, but just as thrilling and I do not mean the kind of thrills you get when going on the Merry-go-round. This movie was well made. The gore was a bit much, but it leaves you with the extension so you know there is a part three. At the end I wondered why he was so merciful to the FBI agent, was it that because she showed no fear it impressed him?

Hannibal

I enjoyed this movie very much. I believe Hannibal Lecter had a deep respect for Agent Starling, which is why he spared her life, to the point of severing his own hand in the process. I havent seen Red Dragon, and hope to do so soon, but I enjoyed both Hannibal and Silence of the Lambs.

Yes, I agree, however it seemed so unlike his character. In Red Dragon he sought to kill the agent that put him behind bars and this one he wants to dine? Maybe he appreciated her beauty - I really do not know.

Hannibal

I make my assumption from what I saw in Silence of the Lambs. Starling was a young, southern agent in training, who had a rough childhood, and through it all, was very smart and had a strong will. I think Hannibal sensed this, and admired it, and maybe even studied it. To kill her would have been the same as killing a beautiful weed that we admire; why do it if we can enjoy it's beauty?

Hannibal

Anthony Hopkins was great in this movie. He is an amazing actor.

I saw this movie so many times in Argentina. It was really good, it really make you think the misconception that people have about education. Just because a guy is a doctor, and very knowledgable about things it doesn't mean he cannot turn on to be a sicko.

Hannibal

I find the most interesting thing about Hannibal is that in the movie she cuffs him with a trick, yet in the book they run off together. They are very good movies, I remember seeing Manhunter years ago and thought it was amazing. Of course Silence of the Lambs I believe shocked everyone. Anthony Hopkins is awesome just to watch, whether a good movie or not.

Hannibal

Really? I guess that could be considered a spoiler for anyone who wanted to read the book, but it is also interesting because it really changes the end of the story. I thought the movie ending was more fitting (although I havent read the details in the book) but I could see him severing his own arm to escape without hurting Starling. Plus the scene in the plane where he is enjoying some leftover brain is just a classic! Oops, another spoiler!

But it's obviously that Hannibal has issues only with men, because I do not recall any of the movies where he directly attacks women.
