More action than previous, nice fight sequence. At the end, the song Hannibal begins to play is the first of the Goldberg Variations (Bach).
This is notable because the best part of Ridley Scott's film of "Hannibal" (which was pretty awful) was the opening sequence of surveillance tape of Hannibal set to the Goldberg Variations. Boom.
Apparently I have to throw in a few more lines here so I will just note how weird an assertion it is that this takes place in the same universe as the other Bryan Fuller TV shows.
First of all, the piemaker would make some seriously Titus Andronicus pies here; second of all, he could just wake someone up and they'd say Hannibal! Although if that means we will get a Jewel Staite (Wonderfalls) sighting then I'm in.

This is one of the worst films I have ever seen in my entire life.
I snuck into it because I didn't want to chance spending money on it.
I don't want to spend more time talking about it because that would waste more of my life, which I apparently value more than the people who worked on this movie.
Terry Gilliam should find a pretext to sue him for the insulting "Brazil" references. That's like having a Martha Graham routine referenced in a chlamydias prostitute's lapdance.
Scott Glenn once said that Vertical Limit was his most fulfilling movie experience...so there's obvs something wrong with him...the rest of these people, especially Jena Malone and Carla Gugino, have to think a little harder about their position in life.
