A
lot could've gone wrong in Red Dragon, but the
movie exceeds expectations. Replacing the acclaimed Manhunter
as an "official" entry in the Hannibal Lecter
trilogy, this topnotch thriller--the second adaptation
of Thomas Harris's first Lecter novel--returns to the
fertile soil of The Silence of the Lambs, serving
as both prequel and heir to the legacy of Lecter as
portrayed, with mischievous menace, by the great Anthony
Hopkins. Familiar faces and locations reappear (along
with Lambs screenwriter Ted Tally) as Lecter
coaches FBI profiler Will Graham (Edward Norton) in
tracking the horrific "Tooth Fairy" killer
(Ralph Fiennes), whose transformative killing spree is
inspired by a William Blake painting. By dutifully
serving Harris's potent material, Tally and director
Brett Ratner craft a suspenseful film worthy of its
predecessors, bringing Hopkins full circle as one of the
cinema's all-time greatest villains. With overtones of Psycho
and a superb supporting cast, Red Dragon succeeds
against considerable odds!!

Bonus Features:
Into the Mind of Hannibal Lecter
- 4 Sub-Sections:
1. Hannibal Lecter’s FBI Case
File - This constitutes of approximately twenty
five pages of text in an FBI file style format
covering not just his vital statistics and his life
before and during the phase of time Red Dragon is
shot in, but beyond that into the timeline of
Silence of the Lambs and Hannibal. A few spoilers
for those who have not seen all three films yet.
2. The Criminal Profile
of Hannibal Lecter- (hosted by John
Douglas – an FBI Profiler) - This eight minute
featurette goes into how Douglas does his work and
how he got into this disturbing role including
mentioning that he once interviewed Charles Manson.
This FBI job comes across as quite harrowing as he
actually does try to get into the mind of the killer
and victim including talking about what made
Hannibal a cannibal.
3. Anthony Hopkins as Hannibal
Lecter - In it he compares Lecter to the
“Bogeyman” and in that, his popularity stems
from peoples enjoyment of being scared. While
chatting about his character he also talks about the
way he prepares for the role in, as he always does,
reads his characters part of the script a whopping
two hundred and fifty times aloud. Apparently there
is no mystic significance to this; he is just “a
little bit obsessive”. Includes a very short
look at the character.
4. The Life History of Hannibal
Lecter - A Timeline From Childhood to Present
Day.
Commentary
by Director Brett Ratner and Writer Ted Tally
