Yes, you know what I'm talking about. Dredd 3D. (Fruity language alert). It is fucking brilliant.
Not in a long time has a film let me walk out of the hall buzzing. Everything about it was electrifying. The 3D special effects, the banging sound track and the brutal violence. This is not your normal Hollywood cop-out to a comic book hero. This is how it is meant to be. The first 18-cert film in a 2 years.
If you are a non hipster, middle age guy (girl) who knew 2000 AD as they grew up in the 80s then you will adore this as an adult. It is apocalyptic, brutal, sexy and everything that is base in you that you daren't admit. You'll love and hate Ma-Ma as much as you do Dredd. You'll do it to Drum and Bass.
Just go see it. Show these people we don't need washed down, sanitised, perfectly packaged, happy ending, taste a little bit of sick in our films.
You are numbed by modern day TV and film. Go see this and take a cold shower. You'll come out the same as I did, refreshed and grinning from ear to ear.
Then spread the word.
on the back of this review I would like to book you for babysitting duties.Is it a prerequisite that the child must remain unconscious throughout?
ReplyDeleteDredd says,"The child must be unconscious. Safety first citizen"
