45. Dredd 3D

Phew! Dredd 3D is great! Not amazing or genre defining, but most definitely a lot of fun along with a brilliant central performance by Karl Urban as JD himself.

The tight focus is an asset as it centres on the Dredd and Anderson's relationship - it's really Anderson's movie as Dredd is just the blunt instrument dispensing LAW (with added violence) while she is trying to learn the ropes.

On the downside I was expecting some tighter dialogue (it's all 'fucks' and no 'drokks', AD fans) and perhaps some more carefully choreographed actions sequences rather than the 'lets fire lots of big guns into the walls they are behind' style sections. To be honest though, this does only happen once (although it does go on a bit).

Overall though it is the Dredd film you've been waiting for! Now I'm off to buy one these.
