And the scariest thing about Dredd is... it wasn't about a big incident, it was about an average day the Judges have to face. One of the few movies that uses CGI and 3d effects efficiently and to their fullest. Really wish they had made the sequels.

How this movie hasn't received a sequel is beyond me... this was one of the best action movies I've ever seen.
The actor playing Dredd took a lot of guts playing a character knowing he won't be getting any fame as his face is hidden. I guess at least he got paid good in the end, he had no problem with it.

He had no problem with it as he was a 2000ad reader as a kid. He understands that Dredd's face is *never* seen. Even when injured (or a different character - that actually happened!!! A badly burned character swathed in bandages turned out to be Dredd; out in the Cursed Earth). I think Urban insisted on it lol

Yes! Been hoping you would go into this after watching your Dredd v Predator videos.
The way Karl keeps that snarl/scowl on his face throughout the whole film is great. It's a great film.
This was an absolutely brilliant rendition. So sad it bombed. Insanely underrated. We need more.
Karl Urban is one of my favorite actors!!

Zen RD Your mixing two stories together. Necropolis is where The Dark Judges, aided by the Sisters of Death, use their infernal powers to take control of the Judges and MC1 before systematically ‘Judging’ (ie killing) the citizens. “The crime is life. The sentence is death”. Whereas Judgement Day centres on a Necromancer called Sabat who uses the planets own power to reanimate all the dead of the earth as zombies. Both stories are mind blowing.

What an awesome movie! I really wish there will be a sequel. I’d also like to see the Batman/Judge Dredd graphic novel be adapted to the big screen. Great video, thanks!
I really liked Karl Urban as Dredd. The newer Judge Dredd was a perfect representation of comic book Dredd come to big screen. That drug Slo-Mo was intense. Great film!

Death, Fear and Fire are the three that I remember. I think that the fourth one was called famine but I'm not sure. They reasoned that as crime was committed by the living then life itself was a crime! Needless to say they preside over a dead world! They were repeat characters and were some of Dredd's most dangerous foes, especially as they couldn't be captured or even permanently killed. I'll have to dig out my Dredd year books and read the story again now. There was a follow up story where Dredd and Anderson actually went to their dimension to try to destroy them.
Wait, what?! They're undead judges??? Can you do a vid on that in the future? It kinda interesting heheh :)

During the 80's 2000ad ran a Dredd story which was an analogue of the Four horseman of the apocalypse. Four death judges came from another dimension where it was observed all crime was committed by the living and therefore made life a crime punishable by death. it has been revisited many times in the UK comic 2000ad where Dredd is still the main comic strip character.
Best line of the film.. "What happened?" "Drug bust. Perps were uncooperative."
Karl Urban Frickin nailed it.

Dredd was so good in 3d at the theatre, probably one of the best uses of 3d in movies, made the slowmo and shoot-out scenes really pop i've watched it multiple times at home and in my opinion 3d on the big screen is the best way to watch it

Yes, absolutely right. Due to my schedule at the time, I was unable to go see Dredd 2012 in theaters, but did later order it at home on cable. And I immediately regretted not seeing this astonishing film on the big screen. Scenes like the minigun scene, or Mamas last flight. I did order the DVD right away. I later viewed an interview with Carl Urban where he stated that DVDs were selling well due to word of mouth and the film gaining popularity later. It rightly has its loyal fanbase, of which I am a member. An amazing movie that stands on its own. Great commentary, well presented.
i like these videos, cuz it helps me understand things i didn't catch watchin' em the first time.

I loved this film! I'm a big fan of the comics and I really appreciated this stripped back film that got to grips with the basics. It didn't have the budget to do Mega City One justice (no pun intended) so it focused most of the action in a Mega City towerblock. Actors and actresses were fabulous! I could tell that there was a lot of love behind this. Very nice review of one of my favourite films! Many thanks!
This movie is outstanding and one of the best comic to film adaptations I've ever seen. I can't sing its praises enough.

Judgement time, what a awesome film.
If there were no courts just one person that acted as judge jury and executioner in each city, would the crime rate decrease out of fear of the judge or would it increase from people trying to make an example out of the judges?

This is the first I'm hearing of Judge death and dead world. That sounds awesome. I would be interested in your impression of The Dark Tower books.
Even though there's little story to this movie, I enjoyed every moment. I was entertained from beginning to end. Under rated movie
The final fall and music was epic.
Dredd is a masterful film. It's a mixture of dirty harry, training day. As a a kid who grew up reading 2000AD this is everything I could have wanted. I agree about the 3D as this put me off and I didn't bother watching at the cinema. When it came out on dvd I was like OMG. This is brilliant. I fully support this style of cinematography, storyline, characterisation for a series. Keith Urban is PERFECTLY cast as Dredd. Dredd is Clint Eastwood as dirty harry. I'd love to see all the other storylines drawn in, the dark judges, drawing out the wasteland etc.
