I was entertained from start to finish. Had I come to IMDb and seen the rating of 5 I might have skipped it, but I saw the movie before I came here- lesson learned and advice to others. It's fast paced and there is always something happening. I really was not bored at all during any part of the movie. There are many things I can criticize about this movie, and I can understand the points other posters have made, but the bottom line is that it's just a movie. It's how I passed a couple of hours this Sunday night and that's all. When I want real excitement all I have to do is open the paper and read about all the crazy things happening in the world. So, I enjoyed it and I recommend it to others who like these kinds of movies.

I had to kill some time today so I went to the movies and everything had already started except Hannibal Rising. I was about to go back home when I decided to take a chance. How many Hannibal movies can they make? Another one? Those were the questions that went through my mind.

I only saw the first hour but it was enjoyable. It is a story about the events which shaped Hannibal's life and made him what he is. You will find yourself liking Hannibal and feeling sorry for him. You will see a child that suffered through some bad experiences and how he grows up into what we know him as. Don't be fooled, this movie is not a slow paced bore. There is plenty of cool action to keep you from falling asleep. I rate this movie worthy of a seeing at the movies and not on DVD. See it now!
