I love this movie!

When I first saw it back in the mid 90's I was like "meh" (like everyone else). But I've seen it around 10 times since then, and each time I see it I love it a little bit more.

I think Stallone, Assante and Sydow was great. It had a great big score, great old school effects and I really like the whole look of the film. The whole thing kind of reminds me of the original Star Wars trilogy, but with Stallone.

I'm not a big fan of the comics and I thought this movie wasn't too bad either. It still gives a bit of a charge.🐭

Funny, it has grown on me as well. When I saw it the first time, I remember I was disappointed, but now I realize it is actually surprisingly good.

It's far from the perfect Dredd movie but it's better than some people make out and certainly not a terrible film.

Yeah, I found it more entertaining then 2012 dredd. Great production value too.

Dredd showing his face notwithstanding, I'd say it was quite faithful for the most part to the original comic.

I agree Jar! I was kind of shocked when I saw such a low rating on here, this movie is NOT just a 5.4 flick. I mean it should be a 6, at the very LEAST. I personally gave it a 7.

Okay, just don't try to think this best represents the character its based on.

I'm guessing it is very different from the source material. I had some Dredd comic books when 25 years ago, and have played all the video games. But haven't really formed an opinion on the character based on that. So I just like this as a Stallone/Sci-Fi movie.
