    Fun action with some good acting and attractive waifu. That's enough to make anyone who isn't a giant comic nerd to like it.

    because the stallone film was campy as fuck, so it needed a serious counterpart. also the author said karl urban nailed dredd's character perfectly, and not just because the helmet never came off.

      He's never read them. Shill tactic to get people talking about the IP so they can announce some shit new woke-wanked version from Amazon.

      Not him and I disagree with him too but they did steer clear of the old 70s sci-fi pulp look that the Stallone film grabbed with both hands. Ironically that film was a lot closer in that it had almost all the elements of the first comic stories, Rico (who is in like one comic), the ABC Warrior cameo, the Angel Gang, the Judges conspiracy although weirdly choosing to make Judge Griffin the bad guy instead of Judge Cal, the one who usurped him. The old comics were pretty goofy and that's okay. But I think the 2012 film made the right choice being more serious and adapting it well for live action grounding it in a more simple straightforward siege film.

    Love both versions of this character, possibly like Stalone a little more because of the kino one liners.

      I think Dredd is overall the better movie, but Judge Dredd is more fun, and if I had to sit down and watch one right now, I'd go with Judge Dredd.

        i also want to watch judge dredd right now but only because i watched dredd last week and haven't seen JD in a few years

        there's also some fan edit floating around the internet i've heard about, called the brutal beta cut, supposed to be better.

    The stallone version got the goofyness right.

    I've read damn near every comic with Dredd in it and this was a pretty good adaptation. Cut some of the fat out from the original comic but kept the core parts of the character unlike the stallone version.

    It's a 50 year old IP at this point, with different writers and artists, along with side stories and a DREDD universe with their own takes on Judge Dredd.

    Some of it is cartoonish, some is too British, some of it is KINO and some is too dystopian.

    this movie was amazing, the soundtrack and cinematography was awesome and I watch it once every year.

    It's a shit rippoff of The Raid, which is a highly superior movie.

      Didn't Dredd go into production before The Raid? It was the insistence of converting it to 3D that delayed the release until after that movie came out.

        yea dredd started production in late 08 after a few script rewrites and was already in filming by the time evans finished his script and started filming the raid.

        Dredd was in production before the raid. So. Shut the fuck up.

        Dredd was a completely different movie before ripping off the Raid, nice try though.

        Judge Dredd finally ends up on the wrong end of a gun and what does he say? Wait? Wait for what? Wait for me to change my mind?

            I just love how angry he gets when dredd says wait. He took it as a personal insult that this judge who has been hyped up to be the best of the best has the nerve to tell the guy who bested him to wait. He almost killed dredd with his angry speech alone

      I agree, but it's still from the late 00s-early 10s, where everything is gritty and tacticool with a sepia filter. If it was in production during post-2012 capeshit era it would have looked closer to 2000AD

    comics were pretty wacky from what I've read (up to the 90s now). had aliens and space cities and super heroes and austalia city and a nuke war with russia city. silly laws upheld (no comics). now it's pretty grimdark (90s yeah haha) and iirc the political cucking comes at some point
