A few things are quite good about this movie: photography, special effects. Acting is sometimes very bad though and you'll have trouble to believe either in Hannibal the so-called monster, who looks more like a current teenager with a hormone problem, or in the bad guys that made Hannibal into a monster, with their fake accents and contrived evilness.
Anyway, the worst thing in there is probably the story, a typical, boring revenge routine with a twist of cannibalism. I almost stopped it 3 or 4 times but watched it to the end, mostly because of Gong Li.
Tomas Harris has written very good stuff in the past (think of "Red Dragon"), but I suggest he retire and enjoy his savings, because he's only writing crap now. About the director, I won't say a word because I'm a nice person, after all.
