In a post-apocalyptic future, the world has become an irradiated wasteland, and the remnants of humanity are crammed into massive, violent mega-cities. Mega-City One is one of the largest and most dangerous, sprawling across the eastern seaboard of what was once the United States. Here, the only force standing between order and chaos is the Hall of Justice, home to the Judges—law enforcers who act as judge, jury, and executioner.Judge Joseph Dredd is one of the most feared and respected of these enforcers. Known for his unwavering commitment to the law and his brutal efficiency, Dredd has made it his mission to rid Mega-City One of crime, no matter the cost.The 2012 movie Dredd follows Dredd as he is tasked with evaluating a rookie Judge, Cassandra Anderson, who possesses powerful psychic abilities. Their mission brings them to Peach Trees, a massive 200-story slum tower controlled by the ruthless drug lord, Ma-Ma, who is responsible for the production and distribution of the highly addictive drug, Slo-Mo. Slo-Mo slows the user's perception of time to 1% of normal speed, creating a dangerous and disorienting high.When Ma-Ma locks down the building, trapping Dredd and Anderson inside, the two Judges must fight their way to the top, battling Ma-Ma's heavily armed gang along the way. As they ascend through the levels of Peach Trees, Dredd's relentless pursuit of justice is put to the test, and Anderson's abilities prove to be invaluable.Dredd ultimately confronts Ma-Ma at the top of the tower, administering his own brand of justice by forcing her to experience Slo-Mo while plummeting to her death. Despite the harrowing ordeal, Dredd remains stoic and resolute, passing Anderson on her evaluation and continuing his unyielding war against crime in Mega-City One.
