Exactly. Stallone’s Dredd should still hold it’s head high(ish) alongside the other films you mentioned that give us that vibe.
It’s not the best of them, and it’s not the worst (insert obligated loving “Super Mario Brothers” jab here). If nothing else, we don’t have that many films in that genre, and it’s a fun one.
Stallone’s Dredd nails the campy retro future vibe, and is a pretty fun watch…as long as we’re not expecting a faithful comic adaptation.
Ironically, it’s a film made better by the existence of Urban’s Dredd. The worst offense of Stallone’s Dredd was that - at the time - there wasn’t a faithful adaptation of the comic, and it wasted a chance to make one.
Now that there is one, I can enjoy Stallone’s version guilt free!
