Yep.

OK, OK so I'll give you a bit more to go on here.

The story - well read the book, as far as the veiwer needs to know, Hannable is back, and he wants lunch.

Performance:
Hanable - Well - better than exspectations
Clarise (spelling?) - Much better than Jodi - trust me at lest she does not sound like she's passing water every time she puts the southern accent on...
Ray Liota gives his only good performance since Goodfellas - he is the creap of the peice.
Finally - well have you ever seen Gary Oldman give a bad performance, well, no then, shut up - he is great - if not a bit unrecognisable in the makeup.

I'm not going to give any plot spoilers - please just take my word for it that you will be better off knowing only the following.

The is not a Thriller - like Silence of the Lambs - this is a modern Horror that is akin to a slasher movie or one of the Italian directors Argento's style pieces.
Scott directs the scene with a loving eye - keep it up lads - have the Scott brothers really ever let us down with a badly directed movie?

It is a bit gory at times so take your handbag if you want to hide - or your boy friends arm/shoulder.

Thats it. Don't go ruining it for yourself by finding out too much - it would be like watching the Usual Suspects know who Kevin Spacey is...

I dissagree with some of the things said in this opinion. 1/ I read the book then saw the film; the book is great, the film ok. 2/ New clarice: how could anybody justify swapping jodie foster for a 'ginger'?
