DREDD

• 3/10
  THE RAID - 8/10

This movie made Judge Dredd(1995) look like crap
Corrected it for you ..
Jk , anyway Raid Redemptions story wasn't all good , it had some well choreographed actions seens though.
The nut cases are coming .. the nut cases are coming ..

I liked both Raid 1 and Dredd, imagine that.
Both had similar premises, but were different enough that you can appreciate both for their own merits. Dredd I felt like it had a bit more story, better characterization and better acting. While Raid had more intense and OMG type action scenes. Dredd also focused a bit more in introducing the audience to it's futuristic world while Raid kept it in a run down building in Indonesia.

I enjoyed Dredd a lot more than this movie
the action here was good, that being said, it was the only good thing about this movie
the action wasn't realistic at all though, laughable at times (the guy keeps fighting like superman with a piece of glass in his neck, really?)

dredd is more entertaining and less mindless.

Dredd wasn't crap but it's not half as good as some people pretend it to be.

It did resemble Dredd, but a little more extreme. However, they were similar yet very different movies, so I give them both 8/10 stars.

Nah, actually this movie made me want to watch Dredd again

I thoroughly enjoyed Dredd; we have the futuristic sci-fi premise, Karl Urban and Lena Headey, and it was in 3D. Call it racism or xenophobia if you like, but I had zero interest in a movie about an Indonesian drug bust.

This made many action movies look like crap.

Sure
The Raid
had some great fight sequences, but for me
Dredd
was a lot more entertaining and stylish, and it was great to see an independent action sci-fi movie. I expected
The Raid
to be awesome on the level of
Kill Bill
or something in terms of awesome martial arts sequences, so I was mildly disappointing.

Hey, I liked BOTH for different reasons. Liking both movies?! Now imagine that
Been a long time, comrade.

dredd was crap the raid rocked

Movies are also full of acting, but ideally people in them aren't supposed to look like they are acting. The same goes for choreography in martial arts movies.
Mind you, this is more of a general statement, because the fight scenes in the raid totally rocked and were very convincing. But obvious staging and obvious choreography
can
ruin a martial arts movie for fans of the genre, the Tony Jaa movies are a good example of that. Nice acrobatics but everything looks like a stuntshow in a movie park.

THATS WHAT MARTIAL ARTS MOVIES ARE: highly choreographed.im not a big martial arts fan but this movie and the raid 2 rocked my socks off..rama has to be one of the best cinematic creations of the last years the raid 2 which is roughly 2 and a half hrs went by like 90 minsnot a single boring scene/moment! the raid blew my mind.sorry im highly enthusiastic about this movieim not that way usuallybut this movie highly deserves the recognition!
dredd was also excellent! one of the better movies of the reboot/remake era
iiIii__ojo__iiIii
now thats what i call treason

I hated this movie. This movie was beyond boring. The action was too scripted. It was to the point it was anti-climatic. I felt like I was watching a karate demonstration, not fights. Far too rehearsed looking.
Give be Dredd all day every day.

Both are good but I actually like Dredd better

Agreed . the raid has better action scenes and storyline than Dredd.

APOLOGY accepted!

Hardly. Both movies were awesome, each for different reasons.

Arthur, I agree you.

Dredd 3d was so much better than this film. This was unfortunately cheap looking and the cgi was so attrocious it completely ruined any cool action. Dredd had a unique style and visuals, this was just repetitive and plain with a stupid plot in which no-one gets injured even after having their head pounded into the floor 5 times in a row. It was entertaining enough, but to say it is better than Dredd 3d like it is some obvious fact is just ludicrous. This is honestly an incredibly over-rated film, 7.6 is ridiculous. Dredd had interesting characters, every character in the raid was boring, even the insane villain managed to be uninteresting.
