“I’M FROM WATERLOO, WHERE THE VAMPIRES HANG OUT!!!”
Very entertaining. The weird hair of all cast members contributes to a “we don’t even belong here” sensibility that permeates the story. Great performances, and Johnson just really knows how to give a movie propulsive energy.

Red Dragon 2002
Not particularly bad, but not particularly good either. It’s almost like it’s too procedural, with nothing at its core other than the case itself. Mann and Demme are pulling particular threads within the text, where Ratner is merely presenting the text. It’s oddly bland and boring.
