I started to watch ' Hannibal ', already being a huge fan of that whole story. To be true I was a bit skeptical because I thought that there's no one better in Hannibal Lecter's 'skin' than Antony Hopkins.

Hannibal ' the TV show is a bit different 'opera' from that one we know, but this series is a beautifully made work and I highly recommend to watch it, especially if you're thriller/suspense and horror fan. And if you're a foodie. No mistakes here - 'Hannibal' is a perfect choice for a food porn lovers.

Few words about a scenario.

Forget about a classical storyline. The character of Will Graham, played in ' Red Dragon ' by Edward Norton, in ' Hannibal ' is a totally different man. Of course - he works for FBI, but that's the one and the only thing in common. 'Hannibal's' Graham is a very complicated and mysterious character, with a really painful gift. During two seasons, Will goes through a lot of strange, scary stories and discovers not only the nature of Hannibal Lecter but also - his own nature.

Mads Mikkelsen (Hannibal Lecter) is a really talented actor, and if you have seen at least one movie with him, you know what I'm talking about. Modern Lecter is not only a sick genius, spectacular psychiatrist, manipulator and, obviously, a serial killer, he's a gentleman, a very attractive and charismatic man, plays on music instruments and...he cooks awesomely.

But there's a one big moment, which I really adore in ' Hannibal '. I like it so much, that sometimes I literally say 'wow' invoice. That one thing is an aesthetic aspect of this TV show.

Hannibal ' is incredible, wonderfully, spectacularly beautifully made. Every single scene, especially connected with homicide, is an artwork. Someone, who imagined this has a really rich imagination. Wow, and wow again.

Music is written especially for the series, and this creates a unique atmosphere.

Oh, and the last one...

Hannibal ' TV series has a few things that I don't like. One of them is a few 'white spots' in the scenario and sometimes I wish the creators' group work more on a screenplay. But because of great cast, good dialogues (actually some of the quotes became really well-known), spectacular and unusual picture - I forgive all that little spots in the scenario and perceive this series as someone's fantasy.

It's only 2 episodes left until season 2 finale . And as I can see, the finale will be unexpectedly interesting and surprising.





And when Mads cooks something - I really want to cut those scenes and keep somewhere on a cloud. Because it's beautiful. A beautiful man prepares food (I'm trying not to think about Hannibal's cannibalism). About food, in ' Hannibal ' I'll try to say more in tomorrow's post. Keep reading:)
