Rating: 10/10 (27 September 1999)

Undoubtedly one of the best films ever made complimented by numerous exquisite facets,Hopkins performance is unforgettable.His acting talent is used to what may be its full extent(I can never tell with him)and the evil psychopath is so well conveyed I almost forget that he is actually bad,I am almost endeared to him and found myself cheering him on.Only the scene of his escape demonstrates the insanity contained within the small unimposing figure who is capable of such violence and brutality.I simply cannot fault this film and to those who also share my love for this you can go to the Roger Ebert website.Why?you might ask,well while Mr Ebert gives a generally positive review his criticisms are ridiculous.
