Review of Red Dragon (1965) by Daniel H — 29 Mar 2013

This action/ thriller is interesting, and the performances are good. The characters are somewhat interesting and the cinematography is ok, but really it is the narrative that is lacking. The music is much too heavy handed in places and Ralph Fiennes is over the top in places.

Overall a rather pulpy story, that is the style of the genre. The film has some interesting subjectmatter, but character motivations and internal psychology go unexplored.
