In the future, America is a dystopian wasteland. The latest scourge is Ma-Ma, a prostitute-turned-drug pusher with a dangerous new drug and aims to take over the city. The only possibility of stopping her is an elite group of urban police called Judges, who combine the duties of judge, jury and executioner to deliver a brutal brand of swift justice. But even the top-ranking Judge, Dredd, discovers that taking down Ma-Ma isn’t as easy as it seems in this explosive adaptation of the hugely popular comic series.

In my opinion this movie was a great follow-up to the old movies with Sylvester Stallone and Carl Urban did a great job as well as Olivia Thirlby and Lena Headey.
This film is excellent. The characters, story, setting are all incredibly engaging. The camera-work is stunning. This was obviously a labor of love. Sadly, I never really heard about it when it was first released. I noticed some Youtube clips, and went out and found it on DVD. Blew my mind so much the first time, I had to immediately watch it again. Reminded me a bit of the first Mad Max film, and the first Robocop, but I liked it even better than both, and that's saying something. Definitely needs a sequel, hopefully with the same main actors (Dredd and Anderson), same writers, and same guy directing the camera work. This film is a work of art--a masterpiece.
This is a film that does it's source tremendous justice, judge, jury and executed perfectly. As much as I didn't really mind Stallone's Judge Dredd back in the days where camp was par the course, this truly does redeem the franchise as far as films go.
Perfect story and directing. decent effect. bloody and intense. non stop action. the director,writer, main actor and producing company Should have made a Dredd 2 a while ago,its already been 6 years .... An incredible Action futuristic movie, up there with Robocop, Alien .
