As faithful a rendition as can be. I read the 2000 AD comics when they first hit the newsagents and had it delivered with my Beano and Dandy. I marvelled at the sinister diversity that was Mega City One and the range and complexity of characters depicted. Dredd cut through all the chaff, dispensing Justice in an aloof, cold, severe and supremely efficient manner. I always felt a pang of fear, even empathy, for the poor misguided perps who thought they could carry out their unlawful actions un-judged.... fools! Forget the other film. Dredd is dread, he is here, Mega City One is here, prepare to be judged.
Pros well paced, great story, great actors, faithful rendition of the comic, great style
