A great Psychological Thriller

Rating: 9/10 (18 September 2004)

This is one of the all time great police thrillers. Anthony Hopkins portrayal of Hannibal Lecter is absolutely flawless and engrossing. It's fast paced and relentless from the moment it begins. This movie is also a first for having a female lead role. We get to see how Clarice Starling reacts in a "mans" world, which indeed the FBI and law enforcement in general were at the time of this films release.
My Recommendation
(*) - Must see in theater / Must own
( ) - Rental
( ) - Borrow it from the poor sap who paid for it
( ) - I wouldn't use this to prop up a wobbly chair
