(10/04/2002, p.35, Roger Ebert): "...[Ratner] does a sure, stylish job, appreciating the droll humor of Lecter's predicament, creating a depraved new villain in the Tooth Fairy, and using the quiet intense skills of Norton..."

| Pros |
wonderful acting, great storyline, excellent villains, first class production overall |
| Cons |
the ending was somewhat predictable. |
| Bottom Line |
Red Dragon is a winning performance that will keep the audience hooked until the very last scene. |

| Pros |
The film quality is better than the original |
| Cons |
Characters and actors playing them were dull, dull, dull |
| Bottom Line |
HO HUM. Maybe someone will remake Silence of the Lambs so they can keep making each of the Hannibal movies worse and worse. |

| Pros |
Anthony Hopkins, interesting ideas |
| Cons |
Direction, score, all the other actors, not suspenseful at all |
| Bottom Line |
A poor homage to Silence of the Lambs. Stay away if you can. |

Solid performances, nice compliment to Silence of the Lambs |
| Cons |
doesn't always flow, was wanting more Hannibal history |
| Bottom Line |
A pretty good suspense flick, especially if you liked Silence of the Lambs |

| Pros |
Anthony Hopkins, Edward Norton |
| Cons |
Things may be better explained in the novel. |
| Bottom Line |
I would have to recommend reading the book as well, but you certainly don't need to. |
