kdr_a Whole a film, I couldn't watch it without disquiet. The camera shot him is brilliant. Though he was just up righting and looking, his pathology made me get goose bumps in Craris's first meeting scene with him.

pointhalf Sweeping a feat at the Oscars that only two other films have ever accomplished, The Silence of the Lambs keeps you on the edge of your seat. Literally. Or hiding under a blanket and a bowl of popcorn. The characters instead of making an eye line between each other often talk straight into the camera where you automatically are put in an uneasy seat. The intensity is directed right at you. And the story becomes more immersive. A perfect once in a lifetime combination happened when you get spectacular acting, writing, and directing all in one 2 hour time block...it still gets my heart racing. If you haven't seen this movie, I recommend it to anyone seeking a mental thriller. Perhaps once deemed gory in the early 90's, but by today's standard the film sits pretty tame but again mentally thrilling. There's no "boo" in this film. But you still might be brimming with fear by the third act. Enjoy movie lovers.

cathylr Anthony Hopkins and Jodie Foster are absolutely perfect. A must be seen.

vantuilproffessional I thought that the acting was done beautifully and put together nicely, me being a fan of lots of cinematography and film this was nicely played out
