"It puts the lotion on it's skin or else it gets the hose again".

Words that have passed the lips of movie buffs for the past seventeen years with such ferver.

Clarice Starling is a student of the FBI academy in Quantico; bright, sharp, and eager to succeed. Her idol, Jack Crawford, asks her to interview a famous serial killer known as "Hannibal the Cannibal" Lektor in the hopes of learning some information leading to finding a serial killer known as "Buffalo Bill" who likes to kidnap women, murder them, then skin them.

Hannibal Lektor promises Clarice the chance to succeed at her task by providing her with the information she needs to capture the killer, but only in exchange for a chance to delve into ... Read More:

Tom Hanks, Denzel Washington, a courtroom drama, a major social issue ... what could go wrong?

Well, let's start with the positives. A truly stunning performance from Hanks, and his Oscar was well deserved. It's worth watching the film just for Hanks.

Denzel Washington was ... okay. One of my favourite actors, Washington gave it his best, but the character written for him was rather drab. The energy and passion he was later able to bring to his character in "Crimson Tide" (where again, he was fighting for what he believed was right) simply wasn't possible with this script.

The courtroom "drama" was a serious let-down. Nothing happened! I wasn't expecting (and I wouldn't have wanted) some vital piece of evidence ... Read More:

The Concert was directed by the same man that did The Silence of the Lambs and Philidelphia, and for me this concert movie is his best work yet! I have shown it to people who have never heard of the band and they have gone out and bought copies. It is fantastic.

I saw this in the cinema first not realising it was an old film which was a good thing as I was seeing it not knowing what was going to happen but I found it really enjoyable with plenty of twists and turns in the plot. Denzel is hard to beat in the leading role in any film and this was no different.

'The Silence of the Lambs' is one of the best movies made in the nineties. Most memorable is probably Anthony Hopkins' performance as mass murderer Hannibal Lecter, also known as Hannibal the Cannibal. The first time we see his character is one of the creepiest moments I have seen in modern movies, which is almost strange since his character is in a prison cell at that time.

He is visited by Clarice Starling (Jodie Foster), another famous name in the movies. She, a young woman who is still at the academy to become an FBI-agent, is send by FBI-man Jack Crawford (Scott Glenn) who is on the case of Buffalo Bill (Ted Levine), another mass murderer who skins his young female victims. Crawford thinks Lecter can help with the case and uses Starling to manipulate the smart ... Read More:

The Hannibal Lecter series has proved to be something of a huge success with fans of the horror/thriller genre, although moreso in viewing figures than actual critical acclaim. The only film of the entire series thus far that is actually worthy of receiving any critical acclaim has already received it, and that film is "Silence of the Lambs". The 1991 follow-up to Manhunter (the original adaptation of Red Dragon) sees Anthony Hopkins replace and ultimately outshine the previous Hannibal Lecter: Brian Cox. And despite Brian Cox probably having a wider acting ability than that of Hopkins, it is the character of Hannibal Lecter in which Hopkins outshines Cox and with immense ease.

Hannibal Lecter remains in a high-security mental institution and is in this film first visited by Clarice Starling ... Read More:

Forget about watching the film in its entirety. It's like watching a screener made by someone sitting in the middle of the first row. Plus no extras, nothing. Very poor DVD.

Poor Jeff Daniels, his life will never be the same again! Everything that can go wrong does for him with a girl who does exactly what she wants. Quirky, unusual, tense in places funny in others, but what a sap! 7/10
