I skipped this one on general principle --- Maybe I shouldn't have.
I am not a fan of remakes, especially iconic movies. It just seems every time Hollywood runs out of a good idea and goes back into the reel vault for a remake, the new just never lives up to the old. I guess, IMHO, you can up date the CGI but you cant update nostalgia. Given that when Dredd 3D came out, no way I was going. However according to Movies Online, maybe I missed out.
" DREDD 3D is shot in 'real 3d' as I am calling it meaning it was not done after the movie was made as a gimmick to simply fill seats. On top of that the 3D in DREDD is not the focus of the film. It is apparent that when the director Pete Travis and the screenwriter got together the focus was on the story and not how are we going to toss 3D projectiles into the audience every 15minutes.
DREDD is a remake of the 1995 movie which starred Sylvester Stallone. That film for me is one of the best b-movies ever made and was a fun campy take on the iconic character. Peter Travis the director of this new take on Judge Dredd has brought in a new story and a new Dredd but also managed to up the ante when it comes to not just the story but the look, feel and level of violence. When I think DREDD I do not think stunning cinematography but I do think violence and destruction. Pete Travis managed to combine them all which has resulted in a highly polished movie for fans."
