If this movie had been stand alone, I would have enjoyed it more. If it were about some random person... not Hannibal Lecter. I cannot imagine THIS Hannibal growing up into the Hannibal from SOTL. I can't fathom it, not even for a moment. I liked the mystery of why Hannibal turned out to become what he was. I wouldn't have ever put this story behind him. As "hott" as people seem to find Gaspard Ulliel, there is NOTHING quite as amazing as Anthony Hopkins in the role. I chalk the OP's enjoyment of the movie up to immaturity and a fascination with bright shiny objects. For those of us who were infatuated with SOTL Hannibal, I don't think many would agree that this line of events make any sense.
Vice, Virtue. It's best not to be too moral. You cheat yourself out of too much *life*.
