excelent stayed true to the book altough it was mising some things but there were alot of thing aded in
borring ever.........
fab! Ralph was brilliant and Emily Watson, superb, to say the least. Anthony Hopkins, as Lecter, had witty lines. Dark humour gave the edge as well. although some devices were cliched, they still worked, mostly because i wanted to believe in human goodness (hope), and i think the scheme of the movie was capitalising on that.
It kept both my wife and me on the edge of our seats. We enjoyed discussing the plot and characters after the show. Head & shoulders ahead of Hannibal and the tie-in to Silence of the Lambs was great!
Red Dragon is a very well done, entertaining movie with very fine acting by everyone involved. Same story but difference take from Manhunter, another very fine movie. I had high expectations and was not dissapointed.
Ummm (number 2)...it was already a trilogy. Red Dragon was made into Manhunter about 15 years ago, so, technically, Hannibal was the end of the trilogy.
a disgrace and no where near the audacity of silence of the lmabs. shame on hollywood for trying to squeeze in another trilogy in our already overflowing remake culture
Umm...in the book, Hannibal Lecter WAS a sideplot. Of the trilogy, only in "Hannibal" has Lecter been the main character. In both Red Dragon and Silence of the Lambs, he is contacted by the FBI to provide information on other serial killers. That`s why I could never understand teasers like "the beginning of Hannibal Lecter`s reign of terror" and other such things. It`s not about him!
Not enough scenes with Hannibal! He was like a side plot. I was disappointed.
Ralph Fiennes is amazing!
