Judge Dredd: Review



Yea ok, I’m bored so I thought I would watch one of the best films ever made by man. When I couldn’t find it, I fired up everyone’s favourite incoherent “actor”.



Poor Sly, started out well with Rambo, then it pretty much went downhill from there. Tosh isn’t really a word I like to use. I don’t think it’s actually a word. I can’t really be bothered to fully talk about it, since it’s an old film now. Google it for the plot, if any. It does produce some laughs however but for all the wrong reasons. Sly’s embarrassing performance and twisted lip do entertain throughout and Rob Schieders awful “comic relief” appearance does bring a smile, but only when he is on the verge of being eaten by some wasteland cannibals. Unfortunately he is rescued. Oops spoiler.



There are also some serious plot holes. Namely where a vicious inmate escapes from a maximum security prison. How does he escape? Well by killing one man of course, within his cell. His journey out of the prison is a mystery, but he not only manages to escape but make it all the way to the Megacity, how? Who cares about those little details.

Rob Schneider makes an appearance right from the start and unfortunately until the credits finally roll. Never have a seen such an irritating, horrible specimen on film. Constantly whining and complaining through out, as you will see. Below are some of my favourite Schneider moments, in full colour, unfortunately I couldn’t find any soft music to accompany the pictures.

The music, ok. The action sequences, mediocre. The acting,stunning. And the plot? Pass. My favourite parts however is the extreme amount of cussing in this film. Words such as, fritz, futz, Holy Drack, Creep, scumbag and my favourite Holy Crud, are banded about with no regard for the kiddies. Its perfectly acceptable to have a robot pull someone's arms out, or a group of redneck cannibal’s (below) but the very idea of swearing. Outrageous.



Highlights? Sly Stallone screaming “I am the law” with his usual angled lip expression.


Downers? Rob Schneider. This guy is about as funny as a cold sweat, followed my shooting pains down the left arm.

There is also a romantic storyline but it’s so badly written and put together it never has a chance to blossom or even at best, interest the viewer. Either have sex or stop staring at each other like that, especially you “Hersh”.

Oh yea and it has one of the worst endings in movie history. Period. Watch out for that. A moment where our hero Dredd decides to do a James Bond quip as he is about to dispose of the main baddie. This however has the worst ever voice dubbing ive heard for a long while not to mention a one liner so poor, it makes angels fall from the sky every time its heard by another human being.

“Courts Adjourned”

I still watch this film today if I need to pass 10 minutes. I just skip to the funny parts, Sly talking or Rob just gurning at the camera. Always a joy.
