# It was the perfect comic book adaptation.
One of the people who came with us had no real sense of Dredd and his world, but thoroughly enjoyed it for what it was - a tight-paced, well edited, ultra-violent romp.

# The comparisons will always arise, but they're very separate beasts.
The premise for 'Dredd' was posted online in 2009, and production started in 2010. The filming finished around the same time that 'The Raid' went before the cameras, but post-production (on the slo-mo FX, mostly) took another year to complete, by which time 'The Raid' was already in cinemas.

I bought a copy of Empire, last week, and they did a piss-poor review saying that 'The Raid' was better because it got there first.
I've seen both films, and think 'The Raid' is something that any fan of action movies should definitely see, but 'Dredd' kicked it in the testicles, pissed all over it, then blew its brains out on the pavement and set fire to the remains.
