But despite the audience-building challenges Fuller sometimes throws in the path of his monster, it's hard to hate him. Jan 14, 2019 | Full Review… Debbie Day TheWrap Top Critic The meal being served is different, but the chef remains the same. And viewers need not fear what Hannibal cooks up next. Jun 4, 2015 | Rating: B+ | Full Review… Ben Travers indieWire Top Critic On every level, Bryan Fuller and the team behind Hannibal are elevating what we should expect from network television. Jun 3, 2015 | Full Review… Brian Tallerico RogerEbert.com Top Critic Hannibal enthralls the viewer's aesthetic sense with its stunning photography, sophisticated use of imagery, and breathtaking beauty while at the same time threatening to steal away our soul, dragging it deep into the void. Jun 2, 2015 | Full Review… Tirdad Derakhshani Philadelphia Inquirer Top Critic The precise and surgical control Hannibal has always exercised is starting to unravel and it's exciting to see how his downfall eventually unfolds. Jun 5, 2015 | Full Review… Maggie Serota Observer Top Critic Thanks to some sharp dialogue pleated with myriad meanings, Mikkelsen and Anderson enthrall just as much as the show's usual histrionic, CGI-addled murder-as-performance-art setpieces. Jan 14, 2019 | Rating: 5/5 | Full Review… Greg Cwik New York Magazine/Vulture Top Critic This is a wonderful, beautiful, and captivating plummet into madness. Jun 22, 2020 | Full Review… Jeremy Jahns JeremyJahns.com 'Twas the most deliciously warped love letter ever written by a horrifically, beautiful mind. Jan 14, 2019 | Full Review… Cindy Davis Pajiba It might as well be on the silver screen at a film festival for the level of auteuritsm on display. If you aren't watching, you're missing out. Jan 14, 2019 | Full Review… Laura Akers Den of Geek The degree to which Hannibal is willing to withhold answers and meaning while still managing to present a thoroughly engrossing show from week-to-week is refreshing. Jan 14, 2019 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review… Kayti Burt Den of Geek Its boldest, most ambitious, and most novelistic [season] yet, though it runs the risk of becoming too caught up in its own aesthetic. Jan 14, 2019 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review… Allison Keene Collider In this, Hannibal remains beautifully consistent as one of the most poetic shows on television. Aug 6, 2018 | Full Review… Joshua Rivera Business Insider View All Critic Reviews (47) Audience Reviews for Hannibal: Season 3 Sep 16, 2020 ''A great experience in horror thriller. Very mental, artistically darker than noir. Unique. So imaginative and getting darker. I really got scared often and more than I expected.'' That was what I said for the previous seasons too. Super scary, extremely good. I wasn't too much into the second part of the third season which I feel more like an imitation of the movie. Also, I didn't get why 2 characters had to become lesbians. The first half of this season is great, the second half is good. Frederick S Sep 08, 2020 Great to watch and also relates to movies Mitch S Sep 05, 2020 amazing ending. the best tv ever, must watch!!!!!!! hila r Aug 17, 2020 This season was so freaking awesome I absolutely loved it so much, the writing is so much better than the writing of the shows nowadays. Jenneth C Aug 17, 2020 Fantastic in every single detail, the story just got better and the ending was so beautiful to watch I'm terrified about how much I liked that. kim s Aug 16, 2020 The entire series was unnecessary. It dragged along way too much. When you watch a show about Hannibal Lector you expect to see him, though it was more focused on the other "filler" killings Joshua F Aug 15, 2020 One of my favorite shows ever, it made me appreciate horror and see it in a different way, less scaring and more the essence of it (If that makes sense). In short, incredibly well-written show, beautiful scenarios, and ideas and the execution of these complex relationships and concepts is surpassing. Rislaine L Aug 02, 2020 This show finds a way to make gore into art. And that in and of itself is a feat. but good ol' Bryan doesn't just stop there. He makes each character into an art piece themselves. Creating a universe where good and bad are not necessarily different things rather they are almost blurred together. The plot remains engaging and not repetitive and there is no "true" villain. The color pallet follows the ever unreliable perspective of Will Graham's mind, as well as the camera angles — growing closer and more blurred along with him. This is of course in juxtaposition to other characters who are becoming more firm and unmoving their colors and angles growing brighter and almost hard to look at. The music choices as well as the visuals create a constant collage of messages that reveal just enough to keep you as confused as the characters you are seeing. This show will leave you on the edge of your seat and rewatching it proves to reveal even more every time. The only weak point in my opinion is season one where it feels like it is trying to be a cop show. Season two and especially season three really shows just how psychological and thrilling the mind of Bryan is. Lucille B Aug 02, 2020 WAHOOO CAN IT GET BETTER?! FUCK YES IT CAN!! WILL WILL GET BETTER?? PROBABLY NOT Nino T Jun 25, 2020 One of the weakest shows ever. Too bad for the actors who have a reputation of working for much better projects, first of all, Hugh Dancy and Laurence Fishburne. The movie is pretentious, disjunctive, bluntly stupid, with the never ending a la "philosophical" debates between Lecter and Will, with no meaning, and with very predictable "twists" of the script. Lecter could have been caught much more easily in Season 1 or 2 already, yet, the patrons of this project wanted to pile up more bloody scenes just for the sake of it. Was quite surprised to see a very poor performance by Gillian Anderson, thought it was just X-Files Dana Sculley role that made her play badly back then, but as a Bedelia, the "psychiatrist", who in Season 1 and 2 was yet mysterious, but by the end of the movie became so obviously a parody of her character that it became simply annoying, especially that manner of speaking through hushed whisper dying out in her throat every time she opened her mouth. Bad job, Gillian, shame on you. Also a very repetitive and cheap twist with that Japanese girl, a Lecter's devotee. So trite and so stereotypical. Emerged form nowhere and vanished din nowhere... Hallo? A line with the pig king was so boring too that I had to fast forward half of the movie with him and his sister. Oh my, what a waste of money spent on this. And time: was waiting for something to happen in a better line of the genre, like in The silence of the lambs, for example, but alas. A poor screen writing behind the movie.
