Oldman, as usual, is fantastic, playing Mason Verger, a reclusivemultimillionaire who is Lector's only living victim. Verger, who is hideously disfigured from the attack -- his face looks like a half-digested meal -- has offered a$3 million reward for Lecter's capture, and has a nice littledinner party planned for his twisted guest of honor. Despite hisacting skills, Oldman's Verger ultimately comes off as a cartoonish villain, someone more befitting a Batman movie.
