Red Dragon (2002)

The Best Psycho-Themed Movie Ever

Stars   :  Anthony Hopkins, Edward Norton, Ralph Fiennes
Score  :  7.5 / 10

 

The most of movie fans must have been heard the title of this movie and I'm sure a lot of them have watched it. Yes, this film is part of the trilogy adaptation from the novel by Thomas Harris. Those movies are The Silence of the Lambs (1991), Hannibal (2001) and Red Dragon (2002). But if sorted by the story, the first is Red Dragon, The Silence of the Lambs and the last is Hannibal. Because I've never watched them, so I chose to watch Red Dragon first. Will Graham (Edward Norton) is an FBI special agent who was investigating a series of murders. The murder was very cruel because the victims were found dead with some of body parts was lost. Will has a pretty good imagination skill. He suspected that the killer had eaten the victim's body parts.
