This is the Judge Dredd movie that we always wanted, that we never imagined we could ever have. I cannot fathom how it got made. How the writer and director had this vision, and how it made it to the screen intact. Such a thing so rarely happens in the movie biz.

I'm dying to see another story set in the same world, with the same sensibilities brought to the film, but giving us a different, larger view of Megacity One, its residents, and the Judges. I'd kill for that. But I don't want to see it happen because it can't be done again.

If someone made another Judge Dredd movie and tried to make it "like Dredd", they would just screw it up. There would be mistakes and missteps. The tone would be off. The story would have gaps. The acting would be trite. The dialog would ring hollow. The guns would feel fake.

SOMETHING would be done wrong. And even if the result was okay, even pretty good, it would stick out like a sore thumb next to the bottled lightning of the first one... and it would be just another sequel from the Hollywood sequel factory. How could it possibly be anything else.

I feel like I could walk through this movie minute by minute, and in every single minute point out a dozen choices made by the writer, the director, the actors, the cinematographers, the editors, the effects team, the set crew...

... and for each choice explain several different ways they could have gone, and how in EVERY SINGLE CASE they made the RIGHT choice. It's just that good.

It's not my favorite movie. I don't like it as much as I like Blade Runner, or Princess Bride, or Ghostbusters, or Pulp Fiction, or various others. But in some ways, it's a *better* movie than each of those. And it was aiming to do something that none of those did, and it DID it.

I will happily watch this movie again and again, and rejoice that we have it to watch. I hope you liked it too. /f
