excruciatingly bad
24 December 2009
An excruciatingly bad picture which manages to deprave its celebrated hero to the point of raising suspicions over the filmmakers' bizarre intentions. After the movie is 10-minutes-old yawing sets in at a by-the-numbers typical revenge story, Gaspard Ulliel as Lecter acts as if he's suffering from hemorrhoids, and the movie's revelation that Hannibal Lecter was tentatively trained in kung-fu martial arts has definitely got to be an in-joke; and a bad in-joke for that matter.

Badly conceived, badly made, badly directed, badly written, badly acted and badly thought of being done in the first place. "Flawed" is not the word.
