	The 11th Hour Web Magazine - Movie Review - Hannibal
		There is no reasonable reply to any of these questions, and that is the glory of Hannibal, the novel that finally stated who the true hero of this sick and sordid tale was.
		The story of Hannibal is morbid, decadent, at times very depressing; Hannibal Lector, the man, is attractive, charismatic, and it is the collision of these two sentiments that claimed Clarice as well as fans of the novel -- and now, the movie.
		Walking down the streets of Florence, Hannibal's true nature is never detected in his unremarkable guise; Starling, on the other hand, always attempts to strive away from her unremarkable background and upbringing.

	Hannibal (2001) Movie Review - The Hollywood News
		Hannibal also lacks the emotional and psychological core of Silence of the Lambs, substituting it for visual flare and buckets of gore.
		The climax of the picture (which is in keeping with the novel) is silly bordering on absurd, but I had fun with it.
		Hannibal portrays a much bleaker look at the world than Silence of the Lambs did.

	Cinephiles Discussion Forums: Hannibal, compared to the book
		Also in Hannibal the novel, Harris makes very complex characters such as Macon’s bodybuilding sister Margot and he had mason mutilated in a way that it would be impossible to use on film without animatronics, which he probably knew would look fake.
		In the novel Hannibal, unlike in SOTL, most of the plot links the events together with memories and thought of the characters, where it would need an extremely good script writer to portray such as Hannibal’s past, his sister, his involvement in WW2, and - what I find amazing - his ‘memory palace’.
		Hannibal was 563 pages in paperback, which I’ll tell you is nearly impossible to squeeze into a 2 and a half hour time slot.

	Classic-Horror Review of Hannibal (2001)
		Hannibal is a sequel to Silence of the Lambs by way of continuing the Hannibal/Clarice Starling storyline.
		Hannibal is more horror than its predecessor, and it not as concerned with getting into its character's heads.
		Whether this was deliberate (in order to prevent anyone from ever wanting another novel in the series) or not is a point of debate, but the fact remains that the movie is based on what is generally considered to be a shoddy source material.

		While historical novels by their nature are of course permitted to take liberties with embellishing facts and details, I don't think this should be at the expense of actually changing known facts.
		Although I applaud Leckie for writing a novelization of Hannibal in the first place, in my opinion he misses the opportunity to do it full justice, which is a sad disappointment.
		Hannibal correctly foresaw that his people would eventually be swallowed by the Romans, and therefore decided to go on the offensive.

	Flipside Movie Emporium: Hannibal Movie Review
		Gone is the attention to detecting techniques, the desire to understand a killer's mindset, the terrifying thrill of the chase.
		Though it tries hard, Hannibal lacks the emotional power of Silence: the former film had the strength to truly terrify us, but the latter rarely becomes more than mildly engaging.
		The film has plenty of good elements, to be true, but at the end of the day, it simply can't escape the long shadow of its predecessor.

	Hannibal Movie Review by Anthony Leong from MediaCircus.net
		Though "Hannibal" never comes near the lows of the more dubious entries of the 'serial killer thriller' genre (such as "The Watcher"), it is rather pedestrian in how it handles its two beloved characters.
		Instead of focusing on the psyche of Clarice, as well as her riveting mental and verbal spars with Hannibal Lecter, which gave "Silence of the Lambs" much of its emotional resonance, "Hannibal" is your by-the-numbers catch-the-killer-before-he-catches-you type of story, with complexity of its heroine being reduced to a two-dimensional tough-talker with a gun.
		Taking place ten years after Hannibal (Hopkins) left the sly telephone message that he was 'having an old friend for dinner', former FBI-superstar Clarice Starling (Julianne Moore of "Magnolia", stepping into Foster's shoes) is an agent under fire in the aftermath of a botched joint FBI and DEA takedown that results in five fatalities.

	Hannibal - Movie Preview
		It was, of course, an adaptation of Thomas Harris’ bestselling novel, Hannibal, a follow-up to The Silence of the Lambs.
		But Hannibal is not really a sequel to Lambs: it is more of a re-examination of the previous film’s now-legendary central character, Dr Hannibal Lecter, a figure who has entered modern demonology alongside Dracula and Nosferatu (many of whose tastes he shares).
		Given the success of the original novel, which was turned into an Oscar-winning film by Jonathan Demme in 1991, there was obviously a lot of pressure for a sequel.

	Horror Movie Review \| Hannibal (2001) Anthony Hopkins, Julianne Moore
		Hannibal opens with a violent and bloody marketplace shootout involving Clarice Starling and an FBI Task Force versus a drug dealer and her gang.
		The novel "Hannibal" was not about Starling fighting termination by the agency she loves so much, or being crucified by the media and her bosses.
		Hannibal the movie didn't see it that way, and although the "love" angle between Lecter and Starling is approached, it's never developed, and the movie resorts to gratuitous bloodletting and an absurd ending that had no reason to be except to segue into yet another sequel, something Harris has no intentions of writing.

	Pride of Carthage : A Novel of Hannibal
		Towards the beginning of the novel there appears reason to fear that the characters, particularly the brothers of Hannibal, will prove to be two dimensional.
		While this novels considerable heft may give readers pause, those who find a spark of interest from this review will surely find a fire to continue burning within them after the first fifty pages or so.
		Hannibal's family is masterfully depicted, each great in their own regard but living under Hannibal's shadow in differing ways.

	The Pride of Carthage by David Anthony Durham - A Book Club Reading Group Guide/Discussion Guide (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Tracing Hannibal’s bloody odyssey from Iberia to the gates of Rome, the novel explores not only the visceral brutality of combat, but the subtle nuances of loyalty that sustain the family he leaves behind and the complex motives that drive his most indefatigable soldiers.
		Hannibal is ultimately revealed to be battle-weary, lovesick, demoralized, and peace-seeking; does the author present this shift as a disintegration or as a deepening of character?
		Hannibal’s story concludes with the theme of forgiveness, as he makes his slow, painful progression back to his wife after five long years away.

		Anthony Hopkins is extraordinary as the cannibalistic psychiatrist Dr. Hannibal Lecter, virtually entombed in a subterranean prison for the criminally insane.
		We are unnerved when Hannibal Lecter first meets Clarice Starling in the dungeon of the prison, where he confesses that he once "ate a man's liver with some fava beans and a nice chianti".
		Although Hannibal may not have been nearly as good as the first I still thought Ridley Scott did a great job of directing it and The Silence of the Lambs was also very very good and had great acting all around.

	David Anthony Durham - An interview with author
		I was fascinated by the exoticness of Hannibal's war, by the bravery and barbarity of ancient battle, by the notion of such a titanic clash of African and European powers.
		I believe you'll find the Hannibal of this novel to be a complex character composed from a variety of known facts and imagined possibilities, a person more interesting than either the villain or the hero that some camps wish to reduce him to.
		Hannibal's mother, Didobal, is a wise older woman who knows a great deal about the trials of war and fate of nations.

	Red Dragon
		When "The Silence of the Lambs" hit the streets in 1991 Hannibal the Cannibal (Anthony Hopkins) was propelled to icon status as one of filmdom's most recognized villains.
		Anthony Hopkins, as Hannibal, is the main draw for audiences to "Red Dragon." Even though the story is a prequel the '91 flick, little has been done to make Lecter seem younger.
		The first Hannibal novel has a lot of flash but not the substance that made "Silence" such an instant classic.

	THE CINEMA LASER DVD REVIEW-- HANNIBAL
		It may not be what fans of SILENCE (or the novel HANNIBAL) were expecting, but the film supplies the necessary shocks, thrills and chills that movie audiences look forward to.
		Anthony Hopkins is back in the shoes of Hannibal Lecter and seems to enjoy playing the character with a bit more relish than he displayed in the preceding film.
		MGM’s DVD edition of HANNIBAL looks and sounds terrific, so anyone interested in owning their own copy are going to be delighted by the quality of the presentation, as well as the abundant supplements.

		In fact, the novel by Thomas Harris that the movie is based on is a rather compelling piece of modern fiction, and it tells a fantastic yarn.
		This story, as told in the novel Hannibal, is a story of two themes: relationships and seduction.
		Hannibal is a much more surreal film in some ways than its predecessor, taking its setting in the timeless, enchanting city of Florence, and the dusky, ethereal hills of rural Virginia.

	Hannibal : film review
		Based on the 1999 novel by Thomas Harris, Hannibal is a fairly accurate adaptation of its literary source, which means that the problems that plagued the book also haunt the movie.
		Ten years have passed since Dr. Hannibal Lecter (Hopkins) escaped from custody, ten years since Clarice Starling (Julianne Moore, replacing Jodie Foster) interviewed him in a maximum-security hospital for the criminally insane in the hope that he could help her catch the serial killer known as Buffalo Bill.
		While she attempts to track down Hannibal's whereabouts (via the Internet) from the basement of the FBI, another cat-and-mouse game involving Lecter is unfolding in Florence.

		Clarice is unluckier: in the novel's action-film-like opening scene, she survives an FBI shootout gone wrong, and her nemesis, Paul Krendler, makes her the fall guy.
		Hannibal may be mad, but in this brilliant, bizarre, absurd novelAas in the public eyeAhe is also hero; and so, at novel's end, in flest humor, Harris bestows upon him a hero's rewards, outrageously, mockingly.
		The novel may be one of the reasons Jodie Foster turned down $20 million to reprise the role of Clarice, but the movie ending differs dramatically from the novel.

		I love HANNIBAL the novel, which is a fantastic piece of gothic fiction, and, probably because if that, the movie version lets me down.

		Hannibal is set 10 years after The Silence of the Lambs, as Dr Hannibal "the Cannibal" Lecter (Anthony Hopkins, reprising his Oscar-winning role) is living the good life in Italy, studying art and sipping espresso.
		Hannibal is not just a gore-fest sort of film, but a fascinating study of Florence's underbelly, and of course an articulate and suave cannibal.
		I think the one mistake that was made in 'Hannibal' was that too much of the film was focused on Hannibal Lecter and seemed determined to keep Starling and Lecter apart where as the first film was so amazing becuase of their interaction.
