The Making of 'Red Dragon' (2003 TV Short) User Reviews

This is less of an actual Making of than a simpleminded fluff promo piece on the movie "Red Dragon", featuring much more clips than any actual behind the scenes tidbits. I don't know maybe that was just as well since after watching the real documentary on disc 2 of the Red Dragon special edition, I really don't thing I would be able to take any more of that. But this VERY short piece still fails on pretty much all accounts and me just waisting more time simply writing about it is one huge testament to the fact that I'd review just about ANYthing. That can be very maddening at time, maybe it's an illness.

My Grade: F

The Making of 'Red Dragon' (2003)

*** (out of 4)

Edward Norton, Anthony Hopkins, Brett Ratner, Emily Watson and Ralph Fiennes are just a few of the people who are interviewed for this DVD bonus feature. If you're expecting a feature-length "making of" then you're going to be disappointed because this here is just a promotional video that is just trying to sell the picture. It clocks in at just under fifteen minutes and features the cast talking about their characters as well as their thoughts on filming. Again, this is basically just a promotional puff piece where everyone talks highly about one another but if you're a fan of the film then you should at least enjoy the interviews. There's certainly nothing great here but fans should enjoy it.
