Editorial Review:
Description: Big-screen superstar Sylvester Stallone powers this nonstop action hit that's loaded with amazing special effects! In a time when all-powerful and coldly efficient 'Judges' act with the supreme authority of both the police force and legal system, Judge Dredd (Stallone) is the most feared law enforcer of them all. But when a former Judge (Armand Assante -- HOFFA) hatches a sinister plot to overthrow the government and eliminate the Judges, Dredd is framed for murder! Get ready for an explosive action-adventure thrill ride as Dredd does whatever it takes to restore justice!
Amazon.com: Judge Dredd is one of those movies that doesn't have a brain of its own, so it can only rip off a lot of ingredients from other, better movies. It's a mishmash of Blade Runner, Total Recall, and The Road Warrior, with a dash of Star Wars tossed in for good measure. As if that weren't enough, it's got Sylvester Stallone, who seems to be the only one in the movie who's in on the game and knows it's all a sci-fi scam. Like The Fifth Element a few years later, Judge Dredd depicts a futuristic megalopolis packed with crowded vertical overgrowth and rampant commerce, where anarchy reigns supreme. Violent 'block wars' are fought by lawless citizens with machine guns, and Judge Dredd (Stallone) is one of the city's heavily armed policemen, given free rein to judge and execute the perpetrators of violence. But Dredd himself is subjected to judgment and swift justice when his own gun is identified in the murder of a prominent TV reporter, forcing him to do whatever he can to clear his name. Diane Lane plays his partner in crime-fighting and romance, and Rob Schneider provides juvenile comic relief as Dredd's streetwise sidekick. Impressive special effects are on vivid display, and the movie's fun for what it's worth. Lower your expectations and you just might enjoy it. --Jeff Shannon

Rating: - Cool
A lot of action, good movie to be a old school...Sylvester Stallone and Armand Assante could pass for brother they matched them up good...Rob Schneider is so hilarious..
Rating: - Low grade sci-fi shooter
This has some very entertaining moments but overall it's a mess. There are some great sequences and good special effects, but this is a very sloppy film.

Rating: - Seriously... Worst. Movie. Ever.
Everything about this movie was terrible. I am one who was familiar with the Dredd comics and could therefore appreciate the setting/costume/design/etc.
That all said... there is no justification for this film. Everything was terrible. Stallone - terrible. Schneider - terrible. Special effects - terrible. Plot twists - terrible (that moronic band of cannibals? Jesus.). That stupid robot - terrible.
In all honesty, this could be the worst movie I have ever seen. ... Read More
Rating: - Not a bad film, quite entertaining!
I remember seeing this in 1995, & liked it, but like one reviewer pointed out, the press & critics ripped it apart, I had not seen it again since & caught it a while back again & really got into it again & had a hard time trying to figure out how this one could do so poorly in 1995 & "The Fifth Element" with Bruce Willis two years later in 1997 could do so well, both films are almost identical in terms of visuals & a futuristic society, only the storylines differ, my only ...
