Well, thought I'd post this as we rented a few movies this weekend; Hannibal, Dracula 2000 & Gattaca.
First off, disappointed in Hannibal, although I loved the soundtrack, it was as I had heard, especially at the ending... very 'Hollywood'. Nothing like the book of course, they mixed certain things with the wrong characters and I personally would have liked to have seen Clarice & Hannibal as it was in the book at the end.. flitting around the world having fun. Oh well...
Dracula 2000... won't say the ending in case you all haven't seen it, but to say the least, surprised at what the ending showed the 'true?' Dracula as being. LOL, wonder how they came up with that idea. Typical sexy vamps, New Orleans... during *Gasp* Mardi Gras! And your typical Blood-Sucking. Effects were... well, I have seen better and I still say.. Hammer Films did the best renditions of 'Dracula'. Gotta love those films. :)
Gattaca though, very good movie, again, loved the soundtrack, but story was different and we enjoyed it. Recommended to see and I will pass along that recommendation to others.
