Peach Trees is a 200 Floor mega-structure housing tower, the block is home to more than 75,000 citizens & is Notorious for its crime rate.
Whilst investigating a homicide with rookie Judge with a powerful psychic ability legendary Judge Dredd (Karl Urban) becomes the Target of a vicious and violent Hunt by the Ma-Ma clan when she put the tower into Lockdown!
Karl Urban's portrayal of the comic book Legend and his decision to remain faithful to the character made this movie one not to miss and although the box office was not as successful as it should have been, it has become a cult Hit with audiences all over the world.
Dredd is dark, gritty, well thought out, with a great plot fantastic action and gave us a dredd who doesn't remove his helmet.
Highly recommended.

Set in a future where the entire East Coast of the United States has become one crowded metropolis....
The show follows Billy Butcher (Karl Urban) as he recruits a team of people who have bern wronged by Superheroes. In The Boys universe, the superheroes tend to not care so much about callateral damage, and honestly, most of them are douchebags (think Captain Hammer from Dr Horrible's evil singalong blog) .
As we learn more about their word the show not only becomes an obvious satire on superhero culture, but the our society as a hole. The religion episode, is one that really stands out as not being afraid to take shots.
The effects, mostly work pretty well, and nothing was bad enough to take me out of the escapeism. The acting is a bit all over the place, but Karl Urban really commands the screen.
It should be said that this is not for everyone. It is one of the mist graphic (non horror) things I have ever seen, and if you're not used to it you may find yourself checking out early. If you can handle the violence, it's worth it

The cast was great, and I hadn't really heard of any of the actors, aside from Karl Urban, Jack Quaid, and Simon Pegg.
Eight episodes were sufficient enough for me, it did drag a little in the beginning for me. But, that cliffhanger was NOT COOL. Thank god they're already filming season 2!

Superheroes who on paper are the model heroes, but behind closed doors are a bunch of needy over powered arseholes. Oh and Starlight is stunningly beautiful, oh and Karl Urban is amazing, oh and the Superman clone is more like Brightburn ( OMG I need to review that as well!!) and just everything! Just watch it. If you have had enough of goody two shoe heroes watch this
