Red Dragon (2002)

Keep in mind I read all three books and loved them. I thought they did an excellent job of translating the 3 books to the screen. Red Dragon, as opposed to Manhunter, was much more true to the original story, and very well made.

The cast of actors they pulled together for this film was a true feat of genius. They couldn't have done a better job. Anthony Hopkins hasn't lost his edge a bit. The charaters truley came to life, and put on one hell of a show.

Very disturbing film with some grisly images and a great climatic ending. I was grasping my pillow for dear life. (and I already knew the ending more or less)

Rating: B
