The Production design, costuming and music scoring are all spot on for a Judge Dredd film but the casting of Stallone was just an epic fail and the whole thing stands or falls on that. When he gets off the bike and mumbles 'I am the law' I didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Rob Schnieder. Enough said.
The trailer is awesome though.
My fear for the new movie is that they've 'grunged' it up and it's directed by an anonymous shaky-cam hack and, as a result, will just blend in with the rest of the mediocre dross.
