“..Travis allows us to revel in amoral spectacle. Yes, it's bad for you, but that's what makes Dredd the hero the comic book film needs now, most of all..”
by Simon Abrams [Village Voice]
“..still slick and accessible enough to attract new ones, Dredd 3D feels like a smart and muscular addition to the sci-fi action genre..”
by Stephen Dalton [Hollywood Reporter]
3 of 4

“..not much of what Dredd has to offer is new or groundbreaking, but the fusion of familiar elements generates a smartly-paced, suspenseful 90 minutes that's a vast improvement over the 1995 film..”
by James Berardinelli [ReelViews]
4 of 5

“..it's charmingly diabolical..”
by James Rocchi [MSN Movies]
Review rate : B+

“..is the rare remake/reboot that's actually far superior to the original..”
by Laremy Legel [Film.com]
“..grim, gritty and ultra-violent, "Dredd" reinstates the somber brutality missing from the U.K. comicbook icon's previous screen outing..”
by Geoff Berkshire [Variety]

ERASED :

“..engaging and enjoyable thriller, enlivened by a sharp script, pacey direction, solid action sequences and strong performances..”
by Matthew Turner [ViewLondon]

THE ENGLISH TEACHER :

“..is an affable if familiar high-school comedy populated by bright pupils, badly behaved teachers and amateur theatricals..”

JACKIE :

WHITE FROG :

HE'S WAY MORE FAMOUS THAN YOU :

“..the farce is so light on its feet that it's buoyant..”
by Sheri Linden [LA Times]

REVENGE FOR JOLLY! :

“..I suggest you pass and maybe grab it from Redbox or VOD or something..”
by David Cantu [CinemaDeviant.com]

THE GREAT GATSBY :

“..a hugely elaborate, well-cast adaptation of an American classic that will provoke every possible reaction..”
by Todd McCarthy [Hollywood Reporter]

PEEPLES :

“..Tina Gordon Chism keeps the innocuous class-meets-crass jokes bubbling, and the actors are amiable, but Peeples often seems to want to turn these characters into benignly goofy role models. Maybe that's why the basic comic collision never explodes..”
by Owen Gleiberman [Entertainment Weekly]
