Storyline

The continuing saga of Hannibal Lecter, the murdering cannibal. He is presently in Italy and works as a curator at a museum. Clarice Starling, the FBI agent whom he aided to apprehend a serial killer, was placed in charge of an operation but when one of her men botches it, she's called to the mat by the Bureau. One high ranking official, Paul Krendler has it in for her. But she gets a reprieve because Mason Verger, one of Lecter's victims who is looking to get back at Lecter for what Lecter did to him, wants to use Starling to lure him out. When Lecter sends her a note she learns that he's in Italy so she asks the police to keep an eye out for him. But a corrupt policeman who wants to get the reward that Verger placed on him, tells Verger where he is. But they fail to get him. Later Verger decides to frame Starling which makes Lecter return to the States. And the race to get Lecter begins. Written by rcs0411@yahoo.com

Hannibals Return
14 February 2007 | by (United Kingdom) – See all my reviews

This was a good sequel - Hannibal returning brought me goosebumps once again with him out of jail at large..Thats bloody fun to me having a serial killer missing for 10 years and returns caused by an old patient of his wants revenge.

However - He gets Clarice involved the dangerous game where she has been looking for him for a long time since after shooting Buffalo Bill. One thing is I wasn't too sure about Moore as Clarice - She was good, but we all like the same actress to play the same person in the story's.

Anyway - Gary Oldman as the villain was superb..evil, twisted and absolute rich..

Good Sequel Indeed!! "Your brother smells just as bad as you do" - Hannibal Lector
