Those who like thriller movies will be disappointed because it really lacks suspense. The question of how Hannibal became the ogre later on should be the main question the film aims to answer. But every person with a normal IQ can guess what happened in the cabin at the beginning of the film. The film loses the suspense at the beginning, and then it is just a running account of how Hannibal gets his revenge. Worrying about Hannibal's death is superfluous, because most people know that this is a prequel to the series. As a revenge movie, because its explanation of hatred is too simple, it is difficult for people to experience the feelings of the same hatred. All that's left is to see how Hannibal's hand-knife (more precisely, it should be called the mouth blade) enemy, but people who like this kind of film may be even more disappointed, compared to similar works with iron pipes running through their bodies and cutting their hands and digging their eyes. , "Young Hannibal" is too pediatric.
In fact, "Young Hannibal" cannot be made into the above types of films, and can also be made into a film that wins by plot. Sadly, it's even worse at this point. As a play principle, when the protagonist (that is, Hannibal) needs to achieve a goal (kill his enemy), the process must encounter various obstacles that prevent him from achieving his goal. Otherwise, it would become a story that Mrs. McDull told McDull: There was once a child who was disobedient, and one day he died. Of course McDull didn't like to hear this story that lacked the process and details, but he couldn't help it, because Mrs. McDull was a motherfucker. It's a pity that "Young Hannibal" and the audience will never change into this relationship, so the best way is to make up for the omitted process and details.
A French inspector is set up in the film to track down war criminals. This character is the obstacle designed by the film for Hannibal to achieve his goal, but it is difficult to find out what threats this obstacle character poses to Hannibal and what contribution he has made to the development of the plot after watching the entire film. And those poor fellows waiting to be killed, all they can do is get killed one by one, and can't even really threaten Hannibal's life once. In this running account movie, Hannibal seems to be on a slide, slipping to the end, ending his teenage career as a routine.
Hannibal was only a supporting role as Jodie Foster's skinny stature walked through the dark jungle. But Anthony Hopkins gave Hannibal a captivating charm, a terrifying ogre mastered in psychology, graceful and mysterious. However, as the supporting role became the protagonist of the series of movies - after "Silence of the Lambs", the movies "Hannibal" and "Red Dragon" with Hannibal as the protagonist were launched one after another, of which "Red Dragon" was filmed in 1985. There was a version, and it was revamped again in 2002 - Hannibal's mystery gradually faded, people's interest in Hannibal gradually faded, only Anthony Hopkins's chilling eyes Still struggling to support this series.
When it came to "Young Hannibal", the film didn't even have Hopkins as a life-saving straw. The young French actor Gaspard Uriel looks good, especially the dimples of a smile are very beautiful, but he is really not enough to support a movie, and Gong Li is not enough, maybe it is because he has played too many concubines, positioning one as elegant Madame Purple acted like that, and the critics were polite enough to say she was an excellent vase.
