A remarkable thriller

Rating: 8/10 (14 April 2020)

This is without the doubt the one of the best thrillers that I've ever seen, the soundtrack and the camera angles especially when they are closing up on a character face really creates tension and the movie keeps you on the edge and intrigued of what's coming next the whole time. The direction is outstanding and really good. The acting is also top-notch especially Anthony Hopkins and Jodie foster, both well deserved Oscars! About the plot itself I consider that the visual experience is better than the plot and I personally figured out what the serial killer was intending to do before it was even revealed, that doesn't make the plot bad but I think the story wasn't as great as the visuals, it was a pretty interesting one but not worthy enough to be portrayed as masterpiece like many are doing. There are a lot of actions and scenes in this movie that set an example and where copied by a lot of recent movies so in a certain why this created a precedent.
It's definitely worth to be seen but I was expecting a deep story with great visuals, it got the second aspect but one the first one didn't pleased as much as I was expecting
