You've Gotta See Dredd — Essential Cyberpunk Movies

So how is it exactly that you’ve never seen Dredd? The re-make/sequel (it’s tough to say, it could be both) features Karl Urban in one of his many awesome nerd friendly roles. He’s the guy who has also been in the remake of Star Trek, The Lord of the Rings series, The Boys, Riddick, Thor:Ragnarok and RED when he did a great Stallone impression.

Dredd is the latest film based on the long running british comic book character published in the 2000 AD anthology comic.

The 2012 film featured the veteran Judge Dredd( but not THAT Judge Dredd) taking a rookie through her final ride along before graduating to a full-time Judge. Dredd’s grade at the end of the day would determine the future of Judge Anderson, who is a psychic and failed the aptitude tests by the thinnest of margins. Andseron, played by Olivia Thirlby, feels a little unbelievable in the world of Mega-City One. She is hopeful and optimistic in a pretty brutal time, but she comes into this test intending to prove herself to the seemingly stoic Dredd. In the end, she wants to become a judge and help make the world a better place. Her performance against the cold Dredd works.

The two of them enter the Peach Tree slum tower on an investigation. They quickly find themselves at war with seemingly the whole tower after the character Ma-Ma (Lena Headey) locks it down and explains that the Judges can’t leave alive for fear of bringing down her whole drug operation. Obviously by the end of the movie, Ma-Ma is dead, Dredd has saved the day. Anderson has kind of warmed his judge heart to earn a “pass” from him, even though she got her gun taken earlier in the film which should be an automatic fail according to Dredd’s own rules.
