Great movie. The book is even better!George Bailey
What I didn't like about this movie was Brooke Smith's acting.... 9.8/10cubesofspinach
Sir Anthony Hopkins is a god among mere mortals.Shidan
It's amazing how every time I watch it, I end up enjoying and liking it even more.Even though there're some films I probably like more, this is the one I go back the most, I usually watch it at least once every year.
I don't write about my favorite movies, because I think whatever I say I couldn't do them justice, and The Silence of The Lambs is one of those cases. One of my favorite movies and (in my opinion) one of the bests.

Sir Anthony Hopkins pretty much set the new standard for modern cinema when it came to creepy serial killers or really any mentally disturbed villains thereafter. This thriller will stick with you for a while and raised the bar for thriller movies to a pretty high level.Dieguito
Anthony Hopkins in his best and most known performance. A great movie.BENtoTHEchen
wow, unlike anything made nowadays, actually scaryGeorge Bailey

This is one of the scariest movies I have ever seen! Doctor Hannibal Lecter is the scariest moviecharacter! The entire movie I was really curious about how it was going to end. And if they were going to be able to catch Buffallo Bill. That guy is also very crazy! Jodie Foster and Anthony Hopkins give their perfomance of a lifetime in this very scary but interesting thriller.saveferris

Ted Levine's Buffalo Bill is creepy, disturbing and completely off his head, but, at least he gives us a glimpse of humanity; Anthony Hopkinsās Lecter is something else entirely. He is something animal, something completely monstrous. He is something akin to the Big Bad Wolf crossed with The Bogeyman, and all in the guise of an extremely measured, polite and respectable human being. Terrifying and brilliant.Siskoid
Remains the King of thrillers and is SO memorable (and so often parodied) that I could hardly forget any of its plot points. Well, that's not true, actually. The Hannibal Lecter stuff is unforgettable, sure, but the Buffalo Bill case itself wasn't necessarily as imprinted on my brain. What struck me most this time around was the direction. The camera keeps placing us on the other side of conversations, making actors talk directly to the lens and involving us, peering into us like Lecter and Clarice both do. It's cleverly done and can be disconcerting, especially considering the psychopaths involved. No matter how well Jonathan Demme does (or Jodie Foster, for that matter), the day ultimately belongs to Anthony Hopkins, a depraved villain you somehow end up rooting for, particularly during his clever escape from prison. Not because you want him to kill anyone, but because he's earned his freedom through sheer intelligence. That said, it's too bad that freedom led to the cheesy grand gignol that is the sequel, Hannibal.Showing items 16 – 27 of 27
