15 Of The Most Ridiculous Films That Actors Should Be Ashamed Of
15. Judge Dredd
It’s ironic that a movie star like Stallone would be cast as the titular judge, as part of the reason the comic is so popular has to do with the fact that you never see Dredd’s face at any point.
So instead of making a movie that held true to the hardcore spirit of the orginal source material, Stallone instead opted to completely shun everything that was great about the comic (with the exception of the name).
Stallone’s “Judge Dredd” suffers from being an unfunny action comedy that is also not thrilling in any way. It came out right as special effects were evolving into CGI and other computer techniques, but it didn’t have effects that matched other hit movies from the time.
Stallone also didn’t quite understand what made Judge Dredd popular. He takes off his mask at the beginning of the film and almost never puts it back on again.
His accent also makes him difficult to understand, which leads to a film that is as confusing as it is dull. Dredd fans wouldn’t get another film based on the character for almost 20 years until the release of the film “Dredd” in 2013.
