Trying something new today. I went to see Hannibal Rising last night and I have one word to describe the movie: SLOW. The story begins when Hannibal is a young boy during WWII. We find out what happens to his family and how he came to be the way he is, but we don't really have any more psychological insight than before. I was hoping to get a better understanding of Hannibal the man, but he spent the first portion of the movie silent.
There are a few gruesome scenes, but nothing like some of the others we have seen in this long line of films. And don't worry, there are plenty of years left that need to be covered.
The actor that plays Hannibal is a little odd, which I guess is ideal for the role. In some scenes he looks exactly like Matt Damon--which is nice for me. :)
Overall Rating: 2 out of 5
