Which Judge Dredd movie is better?

The 2012 version is a way better movie. Gritty in a cool way and very well-directed.

I do have kind of a soft spot for the Stallone movie though. It's a guilty pleasure of mine, because it's so dumb and has Max von Sydow in it.

I didn't like the main villain in the new one, at all. She's a TV actress and it showed.

You can't beat that Stallone and Rob Schneider combo.

They are both fantastic in the way that Batman & Robin and Batman Begins are both fantastic

I prefer the old one.

It had spunk

and moxy.

The Law!

Both are fun to watch. Only one of them is a good movie.

The sidekick in Dredd annoyed me

Both. The new one is really fucking good in the sense that it's so well done, gripping and entertaining. It's real high quality action with a compelling tone that makes you wanna watch til the end.

But the old one is, to me, a classic. Seeing the Rambo guy play a stone cold future street judge blew my mind as a kid, and the movie's atmosphere was very different to me.

You want a new beginning? I AM THE NEW BEGINNING >:(

Both are good in different ways, but I think Dredd is a genuinely great film. I think it shows a commendable amount of restraint in scope and story. It's nice to occasionally have a movie where the stakes are personal and the course of the story doesn't twist all over the place. Simple can be enough if executed competently. It almost felt a bit John Carpenter-esque in that regard.

Both. But the first one has a special place in my heart, for being awesome.

The first one. Dredd was well made and gory, but it wasn't as fun. If it ever gets a sequel I hope they loosen up a bit.

I think they're both good. The first one is pretty stupid though, but in a way I enjoyed.

I think both are better....

@strainedeyes: Well the source material isn't particularly fun in the sense of the first one, I admittedly haven't read too much Judge Dredd but judging by what I have it's pretty consistently bleak in a lot of ways most of the time (apart from him ultimately defeating whatever he is up against) The idea for the sequel was apparently going to talk more about the origins of Dredd, not sure if that is through flashbacks or it's just going to be a straight up prequel though.

Diane Lane in her prime as Judge Hershey.......... Talk about gorgeous, damnit I couldn't find any good pics ><

I LOVE DREDD 3D (2012) IT'S BEAUTIFUL. THE BEST 3D! THE BEST!

The other one's a great kids introduction to a slightly mature action film. I think the reviews for the old one were a tad harsh.

The first one. I got pretty bored halfway through the second one, the slow motion stuff though was pretty cool...

@dudeglove: You forgot Rob Schneider in the trashcan robot. Or was that in Demolition Man? I get scenes from the two mixed up sometimes cause Stallone and Schneider are in both.

You don't know how to use the three seashells?

The new one, not even a contest. As a huge Stallone fan, I think that one is pretty terrible.

@eidderf: I dunno about that. I read some of the early Judge Dredd comics, and it was pretty goofy. At one point Dredd goes to the moon to be a sheriff or a marshal or something and it's basically the Wild West.

I really liked the new Dredd. The old one is amusingly campy, but I think the new one is a better movie.

On topic The new one was great. i think this is probably the first movie reboot which have enjoyed.

The 2012 Dredd film with Karl Urban is arguably the single most underrated film of last year. It's a damn shame that it didn't perform better at the box office.

Won't vote because I've never seen the first, although my dad told me it's terrible. However, I did really enjoy the 2013 Dredd and would love to watch it in 3D sometime. I would love another one, the slow-mo effects were awesome.

I love the first one because it is so bad. I loved Dredd, especially because I went in expecting to hate it

I really wish that they'd make a sequel to Dredd. Probably not going to happen though.

Came in to say this, loved that movie, damn shame there's no sequel in the works

I like the older one quite a bit. Seen it more than once even.

But that new Dredd. Hell yes. Those slo-mo shots! The ruthless unapologetic action. And some fine performances too.

Couldn't agree more, even though the film destroyed in the home video sales on DVD/Blu-Ray. Karl Urban definitely needs another chance to shine and if he doesn't, cast him as the new Batman!

Dredd is perhaps one of the best action films in recent memory. I mean it is basically a crazier remake of The Raid, but that doesn't effect just how FANTASTIC that film is.
