This film is superior in every way to Silence of the Lambs, Hannibal, Red Dragon, that other prequel about Hannibal Lector when he was young + any television show that's ever been made.
Actually, this is one of the best movies of all time, plus it's directly in such a distinctly stylistic and slick manner.
Red Dragon was almost a shot for shot remake. Almost as bad as the Psycho remake in the 90s, except with primarily red and warm colors rather than with cool blue colors. Brian Cox was a better Lector than Anthony Hopkins. William Peterson was a better Will Graham than Edward Norton.
The Manhunter / Red Dragon story is far superior to every other story in this series because there are subtle supernatural elements since Will Graham is clearly a psychic empath, even if it's not explicitly stated, and there are occultic elements of "The Toothfairy" Francis Dollarhyde too.
This movie should probably be considered one of the greatest movies of all time. I bow to my knees and suck this movies dick. I worship it. This is a truly great film.
Jesus Christ man, everyone in Hollywood is Jewish. You can't be serious in suggesting that because someone is Jewish their movies should be disregarded as "good" or "great". For fuck's sake, you'd basically just be watching Mel Gibson movies until the end of time. And I think Mel Gibson movies are great, esp Braveheart, but they might get old if that's all you have.
And I don't even like Jews man. I mean I get the frustration, but holy shit.

>This film is superior in every way to every other Hannibal Lecter adaptation
Yeah, no. It's got its charm but it's got plenty of clunkyness and certain dated stuff in it and doesn't really manage to bring some voracity to the movie like Fiennes did in Red Dragon.

Based. Why do so few realize this? Brian Cox as Lecter is a hundred times more intimidating than Hopkins. Hopkins is like a cartoon character. Lecter in this movie was able to get Will's address and direct the Tooth Fairy to kill him despite being in a maximum security prison.The believability of that scene made it much more frightening than Lecter wearing some guy's face as a mask or somehow convincing a guy to swallow his own tongue.

For more Mannkino see Thief if you haven't, it and Manhunter are better than Heat IMO and those three are far better than anything he did since.
I like Collateral some too but I always skip the beginning with Jamie and treat the end of the club scene as the end of the movie.
Lucas Scott
