Watch the Original
A dreadful attempt at remaking Manhunter.
Almost every scene is copied, with an attempt to make it more sinister by darkness and Anthony Hopkins overacting.
The film fails completely.
Edward Norton is completely miss-cast.
A complete disappointment.
If in doubt view the original.
Hopkins is unmissable as ever
Yes, it's very different from Silence of the Lambs - the peerless psycho drama about a serial killer.
But actually this film has every bit as creepy a villain as Silence (Ralph Fiennes), and the who-dunnit-ness is fascinating.
Hopkins as ever is brilliant and if you like him, or you thrillers, or you like Silence of the Lambs, you won't be disappointed.
