FBI agent Will Graham, the man who captured Hannibal Lecter, is now looking for a new killer, The Toothfairy. Two families have already been killed, so Will Graham goes to the one man who might be able to help him stop the killer, Hannibal Lecter. Based on the book 'Red Dragon' which was also made into a movie called 'Manhunter', Red Dragon stays a lot closer to the book than Manhunter.
Anthony Hopkins returns as Hannibal Lecter and does a great job at making this character seem very smart but also a little insane. Edward Norton FBI agent Will Graham and is great in the role. Ralph Fiennes plays 'D' (I can't remember the full name but one of the characters refers to him as D a couple times) and he is excellent in the role and I must say it is some of the finest acting I have ever seen. Emily Watson is also in the movie and she does a great job as well.
The writing and directing are really good but the start of the movie is a little slow. Danny Elfman does the music and it's wonderful and sets a really eerie mood.
Red Dragon is my choice for best movie of 2002. Fans of the series will enjoy the movie and it's a lot better than Hannibal. The cast and the great ending make this a must see movie.
