Had somehow never seen this. Anthony Hopkins and Jody Foster are fantastic in this. Are the sequels/prequels worth watching or is there a decline in quality?

I’d say Hannibal is a different type of film. So it is worth a watch regardless of its connection to the first one.
Red Dragon is a middling copy of the first one but when it came out it was fun watching and revisiting Lector and his cell and to see all the actors that returned.

Technically a prequel, but a good watch, try Manhunter. It has the first appearance of Hannibal. A very different movie, though. Early Michael Mann film. Hannibal is not played by Hopkins, but Brian Cox.

Additionally, I'll plug the TV show series remake from a decade ago with Mads Mikkelsen as Hannibal. Gruesome, but fantastic.
Well, yeah, it was certainly entertaining, lol. Don't watch it with your kids or parents though. It might be uncomfortable for some people... The dominant/submissive thing gets a bit icky at times IMO.

I didn’t care too much for it, not the worst but def not that good
I started watching it on the plane while heading back home from New Orleans. I didn't manage to watch the last 20 mins. It was a quite interesting format for a movie.
