Yes,revenge is a dish served cold,but not like this,this is Arctic level cold,or rather the 'Snowpiercer' type nuclear winter cold.Too much awesomeness is packed into one episode. A very intense season comes to an end with the fireworks of this finale episode. Hannibal,since its very first episode has been appreciated for its the dark nature of story telling,albeit slow,the story really picks up pace in the second season,accelerates to a breakneck pace somewhere in the middle of the second season and just explodes into smithereens at the end. The result is,oh so fantastic. Alright,let me draw some comparisons here,for the people who watch Game of Thrones and not this show ,this episode is on par with 'Rains of Castamere' and 'The Lion and the Rose' in terms of shock value,and let me add this too,Hannibal is,to put it simply,is THE serial killer,who makes Dexter look like a circus clown. To end this review,when you begin to watch Hannibal,remind yourself to watch 'Silence of the Lambs' occasionally.Although,Sir Anthony Hopkins was rather brilliant in his portrayal of the eponymous serial killer,Mads Mikkelsen is on his way and is coming rather close to being known all over the world for his performance as Hannibal.
