![]() Now that she sits at the top, she controls all the gangs, sex, and drug runs, and if things don’t go her way, you’ll simply end up dead.Ī lot of the film has similar elements to that of The Raid. Ma-Ma is a ruthless slum lord who was able to oust three gangs who were fighting for control of the Peach Trees. Little do these two know, the Peach Tree apartments is a 200-story slum controlled by one defaced prostitute called Ma-Ma ( Lena Headey). So she chooses a crime involving three murders at the crime filled slums called Peach Trees. As part of her evalutation, she must find and judge a crime scene. She tasks Judge Dredd ( Karl Urban), a top ruthless sour-faced Judge, with evaluating rookie judge Cassandra Anderson ( Olivia Thrilby), whose mutant ability allows her to read a purps mind. So the Chief Judge ( Rakie Ayola) decides to use mutants to tip the scales in the Judges favor. So the government creates the Judges, an elite group of law enforcers who act as judge, jury, and executioner. Crime is always high, law enforcement cannot meet the demands, and the public is always in fear. Anything inside of Mega City One is a hazard to one’s vitality and anything outside of it is scorched to nothing. The film is set in a post apocalyptic world now known as Cursed Earth. The film is based on the very popular British Comic Book of the same name. During those 95 minutes of blood splatter, drug use, and one-liners, we get the Dredd that we never saw in 1995, a Dredd that everyone has been waiting for. He gives fans and moviegoers a reason to believe that Dredd belongs on the big screen. And that’s where director Pete Travis comes in. 17 years later, the film is still looked at as one of the worst films in Hollywood, but fans of the comic wanted to see a proper interpretation of the property. Any hopes of there being a continuation of the Dredd film franchise virtually went up in smoke when Danny Canon released his take on the character back in 1995.
