It's a decent, mindless action romp, but really nothing more. I think what ultimately dragged it down for me was the massive usage of CGI blood. It simply takes you straight out of the action. The many slow motion scenes got pretty old too.

Plus side, Lena Heady, Karl Urban and Olivia Thirlby all did great.

6/10.

It was decent, but when the simplicity of an argument is not supplemented with details, when they dont decorate a script with some touch of originality of some sort, we find a flat film, more mediocre than powerful, more video game than anything else.

Karl Urban was pretty awesome, and kept his helmet ON! lol

I give it a 5/10

I agree with you guys.

I wasn't a huge fan of the visual style in the film and aside from the first, the slow-mo scenes were pretty lame.

I'm watching it for the first time now and I'm finding it to be amazing but I'm not thru yet maybe I'll sour to something towards the end, if I rated it now though it'd get a 9/10

l think l was one of those who said it was the best movie of 2012 in an earlier post...and l stand by that statement! ln a year of bland sequels and pointless remakes, Dredd came out with all guns blazing. l was unfamiliar with the character before this movie. Hadn't even seen the Stallone flick, and l still haven't...but l do love the shit out of this movie!
