Hannibal is an 18 or over film and you can see why when you watch it. Not for those who are faint hearted. It stars Sir Anthony Hopkins, Giancarlo Gianni, Gary Oldman and Julianne Moore. Hannibal begins after Dr. Hannibal Lecter (Sir. Anthony Hopkins) escaped from the asylum in Baltimore to Florence, Italy where he has become the one of the curators of the Palazzo Vecchio and has learned to stop eating human flesh all the time. But his cover is broken when cop Rinaldo Pazzi (Giancarlo Giannini) will turn Dr. Lecter over, for reward money, to his old patient, Mason Verger (Gary Oldman). Mason is a person more twisted and evil than the doctor, because Dr. Lecter made him cut his own face off with a piece of glass and feed it to his dogs. It also caused him to be paralyzed and be on a respirator, which furthered his anger even more. But FBI agent Clarice Starling (Julianne Moore) finds out about Mason's evil plot to feed Dr. Lecter to a bunch of man-eating hogs and will do anything to make sure that Mason doesn't succeed. I do think it was a shame however that Jodie Foster did not continue to act the part of Clarice Starling but Julianne Moore did play it off rather well anyway. This is certainly not to be viewed while eating your dinner, it may make you feel quite queezy and the end has a nice twist.
