In the crime-plagued future, the only thing standing between order and chaos is Judge Joseph Dredd (Sylvester Stallone). His duty: police the violent metropolitan sprawls that crowd the decaying earth, and kill criminals on the spot if necessary. The tables are turned, however, when maniacal ex-Judge Rico (Armand Assante) frames Dredd for murder. But, as his opponents soon discover, not even a prison sentence can stop Dredd from doling out his signature brand of justice.

Critics Consensus

Judge Dredd wants to be both a legitimate violent action flick and a parody of one, but director Danny Cannon fails to find the necessary balance to make it work.

The movie, by the end, practically seems intent on destroying itself.

A 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.

...Don't listen to the doubters, with a great aerial chase scene, lots of cool guns and gadgets, and a 30's serial vibe, this Judge Dredd is above the law when it comes to mindless fun....

Accomplishes numerous visual feats, from the gruesome makeup effects for the denizens of the Cursed Earth to the flying car chases across the neon cityscapes.

The movie is really good up until the middle, but after that it gets not so good and feels very disjointed. It's not a bad movie, but it's definitely not one you should watch first.

Going back watching this movie 30 years later you realize its not that bad. Much better than the crap holly wood gives us these days. Dread blows Supergirl away that's for certain.

This isn't a bad movie; it's a misunderstood film. Could be a lot worse, Stallone makes his suggestions in the film. It contains a Rob Schneider impersonation of Stallone and Armand Assente does a good version of passing as Judge Dredd's brother or the actor Sylvester Stallone's.
