Review

Season 2 begins with an exciting sort of preview of an eventual climactic battle then proceeds to pick right back up where season 1 left off.



If you're unfamiliar with "Hannibal" it's easily one of the more remarkable series currently around and has the distinction of being the only, domestically produced crime drama that rivals BBC's iconic "Sherlock" for sheer sophistication both intellectually and aesthetically. British actor Hugh Dancy (special agent Will Graham) possesses a presence and intensity that could easily carry a series on his own however the addition of Laurence Fishburne and Mads Mikkelsen dials up the dramatic intensity three-fold. I watch lots of scary movies (probably too much) and this little show from NBC is so adept at maintaining a prevailing atmosphere of dread combined with an added element of suspense, punctuated by moments of full-on lurid horror that it always leaves me a little shaken after each episode. Many have remarked on the exceptional cinematography displayed in Hannibal and it's this aspect, supplemented by a typically eerie music score and the fact the show is never lazy, careless or trite which all serve to set it apart.



This season represents some dynamic plot shifts as lines are being drawn while other relationships deepen, dark secrets are coming into the light and an even more insidious killer is on the loose all of which challenge viewers to stay on their toes. So if you're looking for mindless entertainment then find some reality shows but if you're in the mood for legitimately mature and psychologically provocative drama then check out Hannibal Seasons 1 and 2. :o)
