Known and feared throughout the city, Dredd (Urban) is the ultimate Judge, challenged with ridding the city of its latest scourge, a dangerous drug called “Slo-Mo,” and the sadistic crime boss Ma-Ma (Headey) who is using it to take over the city.

Cover is terribly over-saturated for some reason. But hey, I'm still picking this up.

Absolutely incredible film, a shame that it didn't do so well. I'll be picking two copies of this up the first day, one for me and a friend. I recommend this to anyone who missed out on seeing it in the theaters (which is a large number of people

I'm still holding out hope for a sequel with the dark judges, but it will take a miracle in the form of crazy home video sales for that to happen.

Over-rated.
It was good... not great.
And the worst part is the plot was so generic that the movie becomes entirely forgettable.

@ fadersdream

@marvel72
They must have enjoyed it more.
I doubt they got more out of it, there wasn't that much to get.
Speaking as a 2000 ad Fan the pros and cons of dredd are he's a minimalist character. Instead of learning anything about the world he inhabits or the motivations behind characters you have a film about killing everyone in your way until you reach the top floor.
