A look at the untold personal story of FBI agent Clarice Starling, as she returns to the field about a year after the events of Le Silence des agneaux (1991).
If the series wants to avoid winding up on the slab it's going to have to offer a more satisfying quid pro quo than the fleeting rush it gets from echoing the sounds of "Silence."
The story of Clarice Starling has already been told spectacularly well. This new adventure isn't bad, but it also can't rewrite our memories of its superior predecessors.
[Clarice's] circumstances and emotional state are fertile ground for some great character explorations, but so far, it's getting obscured by cases that could be a lot better, and a format that isn't pushing any boundaries.
It makes business sense to build a series around Clarice, but not much more than that. In the current atmosphere, the show seems an outlier and tasteless.
Clarice is not going to rival the film that spawned it but on its own, low-stakes terms, it's a damn sight better than expected, a show born from Silence that warrants plenty of conversation.
the series is an appropriate sequel to The Silence Of The Lambs... But in order to reach the artistic heights the Hannibal TV series did, Clarice will have to step out from Silence Of The Lambs's shadow.
Despite its mimicry of the nightmarish visual vibe of Bryan Fuller's adaptation Hannibal, [Clarice] ... devotes itself too much to cramming the sprawling strangeness of this world into a tidy procedural.
