Review of Red Dragon

Red Dragon (2002)
7/10
Take a bite out of crime
6 April 2003
"Red Dragon", a prequel sequel (or something like that) to "Silence of the Lambs", keeps Hannibal (Hopkins) in his cell while it pushes an FBI Agent (Norton) and a new whacko cannibalistic nemesis D. aka "The Tooth Fairy" (Finnes) into the spotlight. The film is seems somewhat more contrived than it's trio of siblings and may be somewhat the lesser member of the family. Nonetheless, it features lots of star power, solid stylistics, a hook at the end, and dovetails neatly with "Silence...". Recommended for Hannibal fans, cannibals, and those into flicks about psychos killers. (B)
