The movie, by the end, practically seems intent on destroying itself.

Owen Gleiberman, Entertainment Weekly
Rotten

A thunderous, unoriginal futuristic hardware show for teenage boys.

Todd McCarthy, Variety
Rotten

Directed without inspiration by Danny Cannon from a stupid script by Michael De Luca, William Wisher, and Steven de Souza.

Jonathan Rosenbaum, Chicago Reader
Rotten

This slam-bang Stallone vehicle never quite delivers what its confident, fizzing visuals seem to promise.

Geoff Andrew, Time Out
Rotten

Although it is full of noise and fake firepower, Dredd simply lies there on the screen until the final scenes.

Caryn James, New York Times
