IMDb plot summary: Living in exile, Hannibal Lecter tries to reconnect with now disgraced F.B.I. Agent Clarice Starling, and finds himself a target for revenge from a powerful victim.
Directed by Ridley Scott. Starring Anthony Hopkins, Julianne Moore, Gary Oldman, and Ray Liotta.
This has none of the intelligence and elegance of Silence of the Lambs, preferring instead to lean on grossness for grossness' sake. It's an adequate cheap horror that would have been better as a standalone not trying to stand on the shoulders of a much better film.
1 star.
