Hannibal Rising
It started with revenge.
In 1944, young Hannibal Lecter survives the horrors of war in his native Lithuania and spends the next decade hunting (and punishing) the men who hurt his sister. The fifth film about the famed shrink/cannibal traces his origins and explains to us why he turned out the way he did. Lecter remains an intriguing figure, but Gaspard Ulliel is not up to the challenge of doing him justice, and the longer his vendetta goes on the drearier it gets – with absolutely no surprises.
