movie comparison
The two movies that were chosen for review and comparison were Man Hunter and Red Dragon. These two movies were the same story line and based off each other, Man Hunter, being the first of the two.Overall these two movies are far from being the same. One of the biggest differences is the how the story flows. In the beginning Man Hunter, the story starts off without saying anything about how the FBI agent knows Hannibal. As the story progresses we find out that he has a deep hatred for Hannibal but uses him for ideas in his knew case. This is very different as compared to the newer Red Dragon. In the Red Dragon we find out right from the beginning how it was that Jack Graham, the retired FBI agent, meets Hannibal. This of course was a vicious attack on Jack Graham. What the director does in Red Dragon is gives us an idea for why Jack Graham is set out to get this next killer. We can feel his passion for the murdered and can feel his deep sense of attraction for the murderer. We are lead in to the life of the retired FBI agent; we can look through his eyes and see out into the world of what surrounds him. Another difference that was noted throughout the movie is the character's them selves. We
Hopkins is very easy going and very precise with every detail throughout the movie. Even through these two movies are based off the same novel we have found many differences. We think that because Hannibal is what this movie surrounds, Hopkins makes the character very sophisticated. In Red Dragon the villain is a man that doesn't have as great of a look but you do get to look farther into the man himself. It was our conclusion that the younger FBI agent wasn't able to portray a more aged and weary officer that they try to make him out to be. Not only because they were re-making a prequel but also because of the content. We feel that because of this it is implied that Lecture is a man well studied, and that what it would take to be able to commit the crimes he did and help solve new murders. This pulls in the viewer even more, making the viewer even closer to the character. You also find out a lot more about his child hood and why he turned out to be such a psycho. Also, we found that the villain in Red Dragon isn't as believable as in Man Hunter. We pear into the world of two men who hold no mercy for the human sole and go out and commit ridiculous pre-meditated murders. This is with the man known as Hannibal Lecture. The director lets you see his struggle within himself over who to kill. Red Dragon also has one more significant difference in the character field.
