UnowPriceless hyped garbage

Kinley This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

susiewicket This is the real Dredd. This is the single-point focus, straight ahead, nothing but the Dredd, Dredd. And with a totally cool sidekick. His opponent is just as perfectly done. Everything with this movie is right. Bravo!

lukem-52760 DREDD is absolutely BRILLIANT!!! One of the greatest comic book films ever MADE!!! This movie is dark & gritty & full of danger,this is the real world of Judge Dredd captured perfectly on screen & it's BEAUTIFUL.Dredd is played perfectly by the EXCELLENT underrated KARL URBAN & he is the best Dredd we will ever have!!! Urban plays Dredd like a pissed off angry as hell CLINT EASTWOOD mixed with the take no crap brutality of CHARLES BRONSON & he's fantastic to watch. This is Urban's best movie & best performance.No need to go into all the story as hundreds already have so all I'm gonna say is this film is AMAZING!!! if you like brutal sci-fi films like the first ROBOCOP (1987) or MAD MAX 2 (1981) or even ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK (1981) you will love this movie!!! DREDD is trapped in An ultra violent crime infested city Tower block with his new trainee & have to fight their way out & it's AWESOME

James_Denton One of the most underrated movies in the last few years, Dredd provides an action filled escape from reality by taking you inside the walls of Mega City One, to the ruthless streets & blocks policed the men & women of the halls of justice... The Judges!Directed by Pete Travis, this is a superb film showing how action films can and should be done. Unfortunately, the film tries to make use of 3D technology with the aim of giving a more immersive experience for the viewer and although 3D technology (in film) is now defunct, this doesn't detract from the action sequences in anyway.Karl Urbans performance as Dredd is spot on and fans of Judge Dredd will not be let down.. a calm, resolute, stern and weary character that accurately portrays what years of bringing justice to the streets of Mega City One would feel like.The storyline is relatively simple too, and closely resembles the Indonesian film The Raid (another excellent film). Detractors of Dredd might feel it stole the plot, but Dredd was conceived first and all similarities are most likely down to pure coincidence. If you haven't seen this film, then add it to the top of your list as it's a must!!Here's hoping they eventually make a much deserved sequel with Karl Urban reprising the role.

blrnani If the 1995 film hadn't catered to Roy Schneider idiocy - he managed to be even more irritating than the Joe Pesci character in the Lethal Weapon films (though to be fair to him I believe it was Sly who wanted more comedy, failing to appreciate the dry humour of the comic book series). As I only know the comics superficially, I appreciated this film as an actioner and there's no shortage of that, although the violence may be too graphic for many audiences (eg: we see a person hitting the ground after falling over a kilometer through the air). What gave it more depth was Dredd's rookie partner, whose use of her mind reading powers was not only a powerful tool in their fight for survival but enabled her to empathise with many of the bad guys who would otherwise be regarded as disposable street trash. I hope there are sequels, as there is plenty of ground to be explored and the topic of failing justice is topical, given the way the courts are overloaded with delaying tactics and lack of staff to handle the volume, which in turn gives the advantage to those who can afford to wait for as long as it takes. There's also the issue of law enforcement playing by rules coming up against criminals who don't abide by any rules whatsoever. And of course there's the whole notion of quick justice, dispensed by individuals who are judge, jury and executioner; a level of power that may be efficient but has enormous power to corrupt. But in a world where many people feel the power has swung too far the other way (how often do we hear the lament that only criminals seem to have rights?), pulling it in this direction is an attractive proposition that can be healthily explored in the cinema.
