Judge Dredd (1995)
http://uk.imdb.com/Title?0113492
Directed by Danny Cannon.
Writing credits John Wagner(characters) and Carlos Ezquerra.
In a dystopic future, where urban areas have grown into megacities that cover entire coastal regions, Americans are ensconced in mega-cities which protect them from the desolation of the world outside. The peace is kept by The Judges. This elite group who upholds "The Law" is police, jury, and executioner all in one. Judge Dredd, the most formidable and revered of the Street Judges, is convicted of the murder of a snooping reporter. With the help of Rico, a prisoner who he himself convicted, Dredd sets out to clear his name while leaving a trail of destruction, snappy catch-phrases, and dazzling special effects in his wake.
This was suprisingly good. It was the only video in the shop that I hadn't seen at the time. I'm not a Stallone fan but this was entertaining and funny. Judge Dredd comic-book fans don't like it because Judge Dredd is meant to be over six foot high and well built, and Stallone is only 5'8" tall.
