a5c7b9f00b In the vast, post-apocalyptic metropolis of Mega City One on America's east coast, the only law is provided by the Judges of the Hall of Justice - cops with the power of judge, jury and executioner. Most feared among these law-keepers is the ruthless and implacable Judge Dredd (<a href=">Karl Urban). More and more of the inhabitants of Mega City One are addicted to a drug that alters the brain's perception of time: Slo-Mo. While assigned to train and evaluate Cadet Judge Cassandra Anderson (<a href=">Olivia Thirlby), Dredd is called to investigate a crime in Peach Trees, the notorious high-rise slum tower controlled by former prostitute-turned-drug-lord, Ma-Ma (<a href=">Lena Headey) and her clan. The Judges capture one of the clan's senior members and Ma-Ma locks down the tower, leaving Dredd and Anderson with a choice: escape the slum with their prisoner or climb to the top of the tower to capture Ma-Ma and judge herwell.
In a futuristic world, rampant with crime, an experienced police officer is teamed up with a psychic rookie, and they both get trapped in a huge building complex with no communication or help possible from outside, by a large drug gang who is after their lives.
"Dredd" is an incredibly violent and satisfying action film with a sprinkle of humour to break up the gun fights. I know you might still have a bad taste in your mouth from that Silvester Stallone flick, but this one will make you forget all about that. This film is exactly what it wants to be. The characters are simple, but effectively put together. Dredd (Karl Urban) is an immovable pillar of justice that wields a pistol. The villains he is pitted against are scum of the Earth and need to be eliminated. Does that sound like too little substance for you? Don't worry about it because we've got Dredd's rookie sidekick Anderson (Olivia Thirlby) and a memorable, well written villain in the form of Lena HeadeyMa-ma. Once we have our characters set up, I was excited to see them in a plot that is just like our titular character; straight to the point, with no nonsense or fat to trim. You've got great action, action that is even more exciting because it's set to an awesome electronic score. I saw the movie in 3D and I have to say that looked pretty good too. One minute I was laughing at how awful and over-the-top violent this future is, the next I was genuinely cringing at the bloody mess that's made out of the thugs pitted against our heroes. It's a great time at the movies and you'll be eager to see another installment because this is a lot smarter than your average action movie, even if the plot isstraight forwarda bullet to the head. (3D theatrical cut on the big screen, September 25, 2012)
I am so glad this movie found some love once it hit home video. I was worried that it's poor box office returns might guarantee the end of what could be one of the best potential action/sci-fi/comic franchises. But now, there's still hope. DREDD was criminally under- recognized when it finally made it to theaters, making back only a quarter of its budget before being booted from screens. I've never read the 2000 A.D. comics from which Judge Dredd was spawned but I've always had a passing interest in the character and the world he inhabits. I've read a bit about it all online but, wisely, passed on the 1995 version starring Sylvester Stallone. When the character made his return to the big screen with DREDD, I knew better than to pass on it and the positive early buzz only made me that much more excited. The hype paid off with a killer action film that easily cracks my top ten films of 2012. Judge Dredd is an agent of law enforcement in Mega City One, a post-apocalyptic dystopia when millions of America's remaining inhabitants are crammed within it protective walls. Crime is rampant and the city's Judges are its protectors. Given the power of judge, jury, and executioner, it is the Judges' duty to dispense justice and rid Mega City One of its worst. As the movie opens, Dredd is assigned a rookie officer, Anderson (Olivia Thirlby), to assess in the course of their daily rounds. Not your average Judge fare, she was progressed through the program because her mutant psychic abilities might be of use. Her first mission under the guidance of Dredd: a call from the Peach Trees mega-block regarding three murders. Unfortunately for Dredd and Anderson, Peach Trees is under the rule of drug lord Ma-Ma and they've wandered into a death trap when Ma-Ma puts the block on lockdown, demanding her minions eliminate the Judges.<br/><br/>DREDD is unapologetically awesome; a full-on, no-holds barred action film that refuses to pull its punches to cater to the PG-13 crowd. For that alone, it earns my respect. The violence here is brutal and graphic. Bullet hits are bloody, bodies are dropped from immense heights to splatter at the bottom, and people are eviscerated. Ideally, I would've loved for much the violence to be done practically because squibs will hurt more to watch than CG blood any day but I suppose it was probably cheaper to patch a lot of the bloody bullet strikes in digitally. It can be pretty glaring at times too, but I'm willing to forgive the movie and it's decision to go with quantity over quality. There is a lot of action here. From the time the movie opens on a drugged up car chase, the movie kicks into gear and never lets up. There wasn't a single point that I found myself bored. And Karl Urban perfectly embodies the role of Dredd. A man of few words and a permanent sneer, he's cold and calculating and has no problem executing criminals on the spot without so mucha flinch. It did take me a bit to acclimate to his costume, particularly the helmet. But the helmet is the character's defining feature and it didn't take long for the whole character to come together. Urban deserves the opportunity to make Judge Dredd his franchise and bring the character back for future films.<br/><br/>Olivia Thirlby is Anderson, Dredd's recruit. Absolutely beautiful and seemingly fragile, she comes offthe last sort of person who should be tossed into an urban war zone. But Anderson is a psychic, a mutant from the outskirts of the city where the radiation from outside the walls gave her a power that the Judges believe might be useful in the field. Anderson is a perfect foil for the cold-hearted Dredd; she doesn't quite have the heart for bloody field executions and doesn't believe every encounter necessarily end in death. Dredd and Anderson's target at the top of Peach Trees megablock is a former prostitute turned drug lord, Ma-Ma. Ma-Ma is played by the beautiful Lena Headey, though you would barely recognize her through the scarred, meth-head style of her character. She can do deranged sociopath surprisingly well and Ma-Ma makes for a pretty cool villain. DREDD is a remake that no one was really waiting for but, now that it's here and it's been done so well, I know I'm hoping the series continues. DREDD is one of the best action movies of the year; I love it's full-blown violence and the gritty future it's set in. My fingers are crossed that we get further chances to dive into the dregs Mega City One with Judge Dredd.
If there's a serious disappointment, it's the villain. Ma-Ma, despite being played with over-the-top zest by Lena Headey, isn't a very impressive foil for the mighty Judge Dredd, even when she calls for "back-up."
In the walled city of Mega City One in a post apocalyptic future America where crime is out of control. Judge Dredd (<a href="/name/nm0881631/">Karl Urban</a>), a tough cop who is a member of an elite police force called the Judges, is assigned to supervise the 24-hour training of incompetent rookie Cassandra Anderson (<a href="/name/nm1880888/">Olivia Thirlby</a>) who happens to be a mutant with telepathic abilities. Dredd and Anderson go to the apartment building "Peace Trees" to investigate an incident, but the building is soon sealed off and taken over by the evil and psychotic Ma-Ma (<a href="/name/nm0372176/">Lena Headey</a>), leader of a clan that is manufacturing a narcotic called "Slo-Mo". Ma-Ma declares that she won't allow anyone to leave until both Dredd and Anderson are eliminated. With communications cut off and no help from other Judges, Dredd and Anderson are forced to take on the Ma-Ma clan themselves and the Peach Trees apartment building soon turns into a war zoneDredd is determined not to let anything stand in his way and to bring Ma-Ma to justice. No. This is an original film based on the Judge Dredd character from the British comic 2000 AD and is unrelated to <a href="/title/tt0113492/">Judge Dredd (1995)</a> (1995), which is adapted from the same source. In the 36 years that Judge Dredd has been appearing in comics, his face has never been shown fully. Most fans agree that never showing Dredd's face helps to make Dredd a personification of justice; he's not just a citizen with a normal face, he's the law, and the helmet is the only face he needs. The faces of Dredd and his clone Rico are shownyoung boys in the story The Return of Rico (Case Files vol 1), and the face of their clone Father, Fargo (to whom they should be identical), is shown in Dredd Angel (Case Files vol 8). In parts of The Dead Man/Necropolis (Case Files 14) Dredd's face is shown in full but is obscured by horrific injuries. The Lawgiver from the 2012 film is voice-controlled and its grip has a DNA reader that causes the gun to explode if anyone but the owner attempts to use it. It fires the following types of rounds: (1) Full Metal Jacket, (2) Incendiary, (3) Hotshot, (4) Armor-piercing, (5) Stun, (6) Hi-Ex (High Explosive). In the comics, the Lawgiver has a dial allowing different types of ammunition to be selected and a palm-print scanner in the grip that causes the gun to self-destruct if anyone but the owner tries to use it. It fires 6 types of ammunition: (1) Standard, (2) Ricochet, (3) Heat-seeker, (4) Hi-Ex, (5) Incendiary, (6) Armor-piercing. Later stories have added various extra bullet types, including a stun gun feature, tear gas rounds, "Exorcist Bullets" designed for supernatural foes, and electronic tracker rounds. Before throwing her through the window, Dredd states that he doubts the range of the transmitter would be greater than the distance between the receiver attached to the explosives and the ground floor. His theory is proven correct when she hits the ground and the LED on her wrist goes from green to red, but the bombs are not activated.Open to interpretation. One is that Anderson hands Dredd her badge and walks off convinced she's failed her assessment but Dredd has actually passed her. The implication is that, whilst Dredd is convinced that Anderson has what it takes to be a judge, he leaves it to her to decide if she wants to be. The last scene shows Anderson carrying a helmet and a new gun walking towards the bikes, suggesting she has learned of Dredd's evaluation and decided to become a Judge. Another interpretation is that Anderson chooses not to become a judge,she hints at beforehand when she frees the hacker. Anderson hands Dredd her badge indicating her resignation and Dredd says, "She's a pass", using the meaning that she passes on the opportunity to become a Judge. She is seen walking away from the scene, and Dredd returns to the Hall of Justice on his motorcycle alone. Yes. Most of the movie is shot in 3D, using RED MX, SI2K, and Phantom Flex highspeed digital cameras, however it also contains some elements that were converted to 3D in post production. The song used in the original theatrical trailer for Dredd is the Skream remix of La Roux's "In For the Kill". The song playing during Dredd and Anderson's raid on the slo-mo den is "Poison Lips" by Vitalic. When the Clan's Techie, played by Domhnall Gleeson, is observing the monitors the song playing is Matt Berry's "Snuffbox" from the TV series of the same name. All other music heard in the film itself is the work of the film's composer, Paul Leonard-Morgan—whose original soundtrack album can be found on iTunes or Amazon. Anyone wanting to know more about the history and psychology of Dredd should seek out Brothers of the Blood and the collected epic Tour of Duty (collected in two books, subtitled The Backlash and Megacity Justice); which both centre much more on the character of Dredd himself and his relationship with the city and his job. Both books give new readers the background necessary to get the most out of Origins—by Dredd's creators, Wagner and Ezquerra—which explores the events that shaped the creation of the city, the justice system, and Dredd himself. Readers seeking Dredd stories that reflect the gritty tone and themes of the film, should seek out The Pit or Total War, the latter of which is a spiritual successor to and continues many of the themes explored in the classic Dredd story America. Tour of Duty covers similar territory to the inter-judicial conflict and mutant prejudice of the film (Anderson is a mutant), and Mandroid depicts Megacity Onethe kind of place that crushes the humanity of its citizens in the same mannerthe film. Anyone interested in the character of Anderson, featured in the film, can get some background in the series of reprints called The Psi Files. The Apocalypse War (found in The Complete Case Files vol 5) is probably the best of Dredd's epic adventures, and is written and drawn by Dredd's co-creators, John Wagner and Carlos Ezquerra,is the superb Judge Death epic Necropolis (Case Files vol 14). The Dredd tale which most readers agree represents the best combination of story and art in the strip's history—and which offers a much darker, more sophisticated view of Dredd, Megacity One and the Justice System—is America, by John Wagner and Colin MacNeil; a story whose focus is on the lives of ordinary citizens under the totalitarian rule of the judges, and in which Dredd essentially plays the part of the villain. Dredd first appeared in the second issue (or "prog"they are known) of the weekly British comic 2000 AD published on 5 March 1977. Judge Dredd's weekly adventures are collected in a series of volumes knownThe Complete Case Files (currently 23 volumes). Although there's lots to recommend in Dredd's early output, including classic stories suchThe Cursed Earth and The Day The Law Died in volume 2, these early volumes are a sometimes less than ideal place to start reading because of their uneven narrative tone and art style. The Complete Case Files 3 through 5 are, by common consent, the point at which the strip overcame its growing pains and turned into something really interesting—and they make an ideal jumping on point for new readers. The characters of most interest to new or casual readers seem to be Judge Death and the Dark Judges, whose first appearances are drawn by Brian Bolland and can be found in The Complete Case Files volumes 3 and 5, and in the utterly superb full-colour epic Necropolis, which is reprinted in Case Files vol 14 and is written and drawn by Dredd's co-creators, John Wagner and Carlos Ezquerra. They also appear in volume one of Judge Anderson's Psi Files, in a story which servesa bridge between their appearance in volumes 5 and 14 of The Complete Case Files. The origins of Judge Death are explored in volumes called Death Lives and The Life and Death of Judge Death. The rights holders, DNA films, are no longer actively pursuing the idea of a sequel. In an interview dated 17th December 2014, producer and screenwriter Alex Garland told Sci-fi Now magazine:<br/><br/>[Dredd] manifestly didn't worka theatrical release, particularly in America, or in fact anywhere outside of the UK. DVD sales are all very well, but you are still talking to people about them handing over a lot of money for a film that's happened twice and has not worked in their terms either time. The character has too many positives to be abandoned forever, but its going to be someone else at some future point who restarts it, who has another crack. It will be a different group of people, at a different point in time
