Red Dragon movie comments

Date: 2007-03-04 10:27:35 User: Gerard Most of the film is spent making us fear the villain, fascinating us with grotesque details of his carnal appetites and bloodthirsty behaviors. Then, when the villain strikes, the music and camerawork treat the villains adoringly, setting them up like gods. The heroes are more like tour guides in a ghastly exhibit. Thus, the result of such storytelling is not a redemptive examination of the nature of evil, or any kind of insight. We are merely left exhausted, battered, and a little nauseous. There is no excitement or exhilaration related to overcoming the villain. After all, we know Hollywood's going to invent another devil as fast as they can to take the place of this one.   You have to register to leave a comment...   Back to the Red Dragon movie download page
