Movie Info
A violent, effects-heavy science fiction adventure, Judge Dredd depicts a nightmarish future in which overcrowded cities are terrorized by brutal gun battles and policed by "Judges," law officers who act as judge, jury, and executioner. Sylvester Stallone stars as Judge Dredd, a punishing enforcer with an unswerving dedication to law and order. Little does Dredd know that a nasty villain (Armand Assante) and a corrupt Judge (Jurgen Prochnow) are plotting to take over the city and plan to frame

The movie, by the end, practically seems intent on destroying itself.
Top CriticA thunderous, unoriginal futuristic hardware show for teenage boys.
Directed without inspiration by Danny Cannon from a stupid script by Michael De Luca, William Wisher, and Steven de Souza.
This slam-bang Stallone vehicle never quite delivers what its confident, fizzing visuals seem to promise.
Although it is full of noise and fake firepower, Dredd simply lies there on the screen until the final scenes.
Usually engaging and sympathetic, Stallone is blank and tongue-tied here, an immovable slab in the midst of 95 minutes of gunfire, explosions and Gothic excess.
'90's Stallone action movie guilty of nonstop violence.
It stands no chance of being mistaken for a good movie.
If it can't stay true to the title character, it at least delivers a little modest popcorn fun to those willing to lower their sights.
Feels more like the Adventures of Sly Stallone: Future Warrior...
A diffuse, uninvolving star vehicle aimed at saving Stallone's box-office viability manages to display most of his weaknesses.
A bomb; I dread having to ever see this turkey again.
Isn't helped by Sylvester Stallone's embarassingly awkward performance.
Um personagem sem carisma em uma história sem sentido.
Not as worthless as it looks ... but close.
Feh!!!!! Sly sucked. The comic book sucked worse.
For a good laugh, check it out; for good action, look elsewhere.
