Title: Its Just Not The Same
Product review: Hannibal has an entertaining story line, but when compared to its predecessor, Silence of the Lambs, it just doesn't stack up.One problem is that Anthony Hopkins acts too much like Anthony Hopkins and not the evil Hannibal Lecter we met in the first movie. This movie just isn't dark enough. It has the requisite gratuitous violence, but not the creepiness.Silence of the Lambs made me feel uncomfortable. It was eerie and dark throughout; the movie had a sombre tone. That tone is missing in Hannibal. Dr. Lecter seems to have lost some of his pizazz in this movie.It could have been better, soooo much better, but it isn't. Rent this movie, don't buy it. It is worth watching if you've seen Silence of the Lambs.
