It doesn't quite touch the same standard as silence of the lambs, but it is a good sequel all the same. With a lot of new characters to indulge in and the setting of Italy provides a great cultural backdrop to Lectors extravagant taste.

I must say that after watching "The Silence of the Lambs" I expected more form this one. I was so captivated by Hannibal Lecter and his mind and way of analysing others. And besides, Anthony Hopkins is more than perfect for this role. But however, about the movie - I can definitely say that it was interesting for me. This hole chasing between FBI agent Starling and Dr. Lecter was so good... BUT some moments were too much for me and this is the only reason for my rating. The scene with the brain was too much... and not only this one. "The Silence of the Lambs" was the perfect psychological thriller, without being disgusting.

This sequel of "The Silence of the Lambs" is well done, with this time an Hannibal Lecter always played by Hopkins, who is at the center of the film. He's in Florence and lives a "normal" life, if I can say this, while Agent Starling tracks him. With an involved atmosphere, Ridley Scott shows us a monstrous Hannibal but this time, more physically whereas in the first opus, it was the psychological that was put forward. This is good sequel to Silence of the Lambs which deserves a good 7/10. Hannibal the Cannibal.
