Sorry man, I just don't go to the movies anymore. I think the last one I saw was Iron Man 2, and that was because a friend wanted to see it.

Judge Dredd is an antihero. do not pass go, do not collect 200 creds.
But now I am going to look for it and watch it, valid opinions; best opinions.

As a bad idea to give you attention as it would, the guy before me said something about it's poor theater sales.
Once you start getting older, and actually work full time job(s), it becomes harder to keep up with what is coming out/playing, as well as your inclination to going to the movies drops as well.
Nothing " 2 kool 4 movies" about it.




Hell, I didn't even see the Hobbit films recently, and I saw the three LOTR in the theater. Also saw all three Matrix films. Yeesh. Saw the first one at a midnight showing though. Was pretty awesome.




There any movies out or coming out this year that would be worth the prices tickets are at now?

Dredd owns, got shafted due to coming out at the same time as The Raid which had almost the exact same plot.

the funny thing is that dredd was made before the raid but they got released at the same time

I went into this movie really expecting nothing more than a subpar superhero flick. But then I popped some :catdrugs:, gave it a chance and holy poo poo was it an intense experience. If you missed it in theaters it's really the next best thing.

Dredd was some of the most fun I have had at a movie theater in years.

OP did not mention one of my favorite scenes, baiting a dozen or so gang members and then setting them on fire

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LiQoN1-Ks6Q



I was already loving the movie up until this point, but the shot where you see the flames reflected in Dredd's visor as he looked impassively at the destruction sealed the deal for me.

It's the closes thing to an 80's action film we've seen in years, and I mean that as the highest complement.

I liked how Anderson didn't follow some dumbass arc where she made Dredd have a heart at then end or something. Instead she's all like BLAM BLAM BLAM by the time the final showdown started. That was cool.
