Review of Clarice

Clarice (2021)
9/10
I am beginning to smell a great recipe slowly simmering on the stove with Clarice
12 February 2021
Be patient folks. All good recipes are cooked slowly and we have to wait with great anticipation and some hunger pains as the smell of a good dinner wafts through our households before we get to taste any of it.

I for one liked this the pilot episode that aired on February 11th, 2021, which was used to outline who FBI agent Clarice Starling (Rebecca Breeds) is, with snippets exposed of what she previously went through with her first big capture and kill of serial killer Wild Bill before she is called back into front line action by her new boss Ruth Martin (Jayne Atkinson).

Clarice is struggling being in the field once again, and she has little trust of any of her fellow FBI agents, and especially her direct Supervisor, Paul Krendler, (Michael Cudlitz) who tells her in no uncertain terms, speak only when you are told to speak. It doesn't take long in this pilot episode for the bodies to start piling up and a new whodunit series is born. If viewers are expecting from this TV series as great a film as the 1991 film Silence Of the Lambs, then don't bother watching.

This one hour TV series has that required suspense, mystery and good writing that I believe will allow it to grow on us just like a new favorite home cooked meal that smells good and tastes even better.

I give it a delicious 9 out of 10 IMDB rating
