I thought this movie was totally great. But I must warn you though, you should really read the book then see the movie. It's not a necessity to enjoy the movie but it will help you understand it a little better. It seemed that splices of the necessary scenes to help you understand what was going on were left out when the script was written. Of course this would have made the movie significantly longer. I think for the Florence scenes you really have to have an appreciation for history and Italy for that matter. Of course many people were bored during these scenes. Myself included at a few points. The Florence scenes had me wishing for the climax. As a previous person commented about asking why, I honestly just have to say READ THE BOOK. You will know why then. And it all really won't seem like "an episode from Tales From the Crypt." If you read the book and still didn't understand, well then I pity you. The script managed to weave humor into the plot very well. Tony Hopkins played Hannibal Lecter once again very well. But this time round I think the screenplay was trying to make you dislike Dr. Lecter more than the first. And for me it succeeded. I honestly didn't like him at all. But in the book I was rooting for him. All in all this is an enjoyable film. Don't let the ones who were disappointed by the fact that they were going in for "The Silence of The Lambs 2" but got "Hannibal" a film that can stand on its own and doesn't need its predecessor instead.
This is an interesting comedy I'm willing to watch. It isn't the funniest thing I've seen, but it is definitely better than most of the comedies NBC has churned out. It is worth a try and hopefully NBC won't go on another cancelling frenzy in the near future. In my opinion this show is worth your time. There are a few laughs.
This movie is indeed a wonderful movie. We had to watch this film in a Journalism Class. I wasn't expecting much from it, but oh how I was wrong to expect so little from this great movie! Farrah Fawcett is excellent in her portrayal of the woman photojournalist Margaret Bourke-White. This is a very well done movie. If you are given the chance to watch this movie, don't pass it up! You will be truly entertained from beginning to end!
