I saw Lambs during its original release and thought it was pretty good. Having seen it again recently I did still enjoyed it but not quite to the extent I did originally. One thing that didn't hold up was Foster's performance. She still does fine but it did feel a bit forced at times. Her concerns regarding her background and the flashbacks seemed slight this time around. The wrap up regarding Buffalo Bill character seemed a little convenient here. As for the dialogue it still mostly worked but some of it did come off as trite and while not exactly dated, just ordinary. Despite some shortcomings The Silence of the Lambs is still a solid thriller worth checking out.
