Oh no! No no no no no no no no!
You did NOT just take off your helmet.
Unforgivable.
Review by Matt Singer ★★ 3

Not quite as bad as I remembered, but not much better. And whoever thought this material needed wacky comic relief at all, much less wacky comic relief in the form of loudmouth Rob Schneider, should be banned from filmmaking.
Still there's some '90s comic-book production design par excellence buried beneath the cheese, and this version isn't *that* far removed from the much better 2012 DREDD with Karl Urban. Plus, I have a hard time totally hating a movie that features a Judge Dredd costume designed by Gianni Versace that includes an enormous metallic codpiece, and a final fight that takes place in the crown of the Statue of Liberty and includes the line "I'll be the judge of that."
Review by ScreeningNotes ★★ 2

"I'm the only one that ever liked you."
"I'll be the judge of that."
I decided to watch this because I'm writing a paper on the 2012 Dredd and thought it might be interesting to see the differences, and boy are there a lot of differences. I don't know anything about the comics, but I get the feeling that when Rob Schneider interrupted Sylvester Stallone and Diane Lane's heartfelt discussion about Dredd's feelings to inform them that he fixed the microwave and made popcorn, fans might have felt slightly betrayed. Somewhere along the line in production, some genius decided it would be a great idea to add in some comic relief, and what could have at least been a campy…
Review by Dawson Joyce ★★½

As a goofy dumb fun slice of sci-fi shoot-'em-up junk food, Judge Dredd admittedly doesn't fail to entertain, with its top-notch visuals and (mostly) enjoyably over-the-top performances, but as an adaptation of the beloved comic book character of the same name, it completely falls apart, neutering the source material's gritty tone and satirical elements to make way for jarring and obnoxious comedic relief, in particular the insufferable Rob Schneider.

This film has two serious problems:
1) Rob
2) Schneider

"Judge Bitch!!"
Review by Fredrik Fyhr ★½

Plays like a Verhoeven movie that didn't get the ironic part; Stallone and Assante have an unintentionally sublime panache worthy of Riefenstahl. The fact that Dredd is a sadistic mass-murderer in a fascist society is like a hilarious elephant in the room that the movie never adresses.

Review by mgluciano ★★★½

Even though this movie didn’t do the bet I still had a fun time with it. It had a fun sorry and some entertaining action sequences. It makes to be a great action sci-if movie overall.
Review by Chris Patt ★★½ 2

Nowhere near as good as the 2012 Dredd but I suppose it was about 20 years prior!
Stallone is always a badass!

Uhh-emm-thuh-luh!
Review by Kale Scale ™ ★★★

It's a lot of dumb fun with over the top acting and pretty good set design really the only problems are that we don't get enough helmeted Judge Dredd and that Rob Schneider as usual is unfunny and annoying

LLAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWW!!!
Review by TROG2049 ★★★½

Judge Dread sits below demolition man, fifth element and starship troopers. The catch, Being on that list is a high honor.
Opens beautiful but That beautiful captivating dystopia tightens and gets boring give or take a few scenes.
Still it’s awesome.
