The other "Lector" films are silly. This shouldn't be compared to them.
Maybe a nit to pick here or there but it is truly a mesmerizing film: story-wise, visually, technically, and musically. It's simply a pleasure to watch every few years.
If you are looking for something to watch one night, turn off the lights and the damned phone and give this a watch.
