      • Frankly speaking, this movie is only average at best. It's as middle-of-the-road as a '90s-era comic book movie gets, and it's better remembered for its overacting, bad attempts at comedy, and childishly simplistic politics than its action. It's also for those exact same reasons that Judge Dredd makes for a great accidental comedy.

  2. Dec 17, 2015 · Someone argued that 1995’s Judge Dredd starring Sylvester Stallone as the Judge, or ‘The Law’ himself was a, ‘so bad it’s good‘ type of film (to borrow a phrase from Jack Gooding). Having read around on the film bloggersphere, others have called it: ‘one of the worst films ever made’; ‘a huge flop’; ‘a cult classic’.

    If there's one thing that Judge Dredd's comicsare known for, it's violence. The Judges' Lawmaker and the variety of visceral execution methods they offer is just the tip of the comics' bloody iceberg, as the Judges' enemies include cannibals, mutants, robots, equally brutal Judges, and more. Without exaggeration, every fight turns into a bloodbath....

    Judge Dredd's comics are anything but subtle; the Judges are monuments to overcompensation, the Dark Judges are literally evil made flesh, and Mega-City One is a satirical microcosm of Western society's (primarily Britain's) problems. For all its faults, the 1995 movie actually got this aesthetic right. In the movie, the Judges and criminals look a...

    Judge Dredd is an amalgamation of many comic arcs, but it's basically a buddy-cop comedy starring the straight-faced Judge Dredd and his unwitting sidekick Fergie. Together, they clear their names and oust the Justice Department's corrupt elements. If not for its dystopian setting, Judge Dredd would be just another cop movie. RELATED: The Mask: 10 ...

    Mega-City One is one of the most extravagant cesspools seen in comics, and Judge Dredd successfully broughtit to life. The city looks and feels as crowded and corrupt as it should, and everyday life is given glimpses to make the city feel more lived in. The movie even went beyond the city, briefly showing The Wastes and mutants during Dredd's exile...

    Since it takes place in a world that barely survived a devastating nuclear war, the Dredd comics are unsurprisingly bleak. The most readers could hope for in terms of levity was unapologetic black humor, which was often delivered sarcastically or violently. Judge Dredd himself being a no-nonsense lawman is part of the joke that is his dying world. ...

    If there's one thing the 1995 movie has over Dredd,it was exploring life in the Justice Department. The Department's inner workings and hierarchy were detailed before Dredd was accused of murder. Additionally, its structure and key figures (e.g. the Council Judges) played important parts in Dredd's ensuing trial and Rico's overall plans. Thanks to ...

    Momentarily ignoring its source material, Judge Dredd can stand on its own as an action-packed vehicle for Stallone. It's basically a more imaginative Demolition Man that traded its satiric wit for wackier ideas, like the cannibalistic Angel Gang and a main villainwho's also Judge Dredd's cloned brother.

  3. This movie is unbelievably cheesy, and I don't remember it being this bad. Through all the cheesy lines, poor plotting, Rob Schneider and horrible (but funny) line delivery, this one was a cringy sit. But it made me appreciate the 2012 version so much more.

  5. Judge Dredd Reviews. ...Don't listen to the doubters, with a great aerial chase scene, lots of cool guns and gadgets, and a 30's serial vibe, this Judge Dredd is above the law when it comes to...

  6. It certainly gets points for the set design, practical effects and Max Von Sydow but the script became such a mess it's hard to defend, especially since the 2012 on nailed the titular Judge so perfectly.

  7. Jun 30, 2020 · But it was 1995, not 2020, so this Judge Dredd had Sylvester Stallone in the helmet — a helmet he kept taking off — countless reshoots, and a wacky supporting character played by Rob Schneider. If you haven't seen it, you can probably guess what happened.
