Lawless 6/10
I really want to punch that twerp in the face

Killing them softly
Nicely acted but meh 6/10
It's that face she keeps pulling isn't it? I can't describe it, but if you know what I mean, then you know what I mean.
What did you find that they got wrong?
Watched The Departed on Blu-Ray for the 20th time. Still as good as when I first watched it. 10/10
Hah, quite possibly![]()
What did they get wrong?
The City, law masters, uniforms and general look of the citizens, I think Stallones version did a far better job of portraying megacity 1 as it appeared in 2000AD, I did however love the fact that it was Anderson's assessment, kind of made the film for me, well that and the fact of the various Chpper, Kenny and other graffiti dotted around.

That's a little unfair, considering it was an independent production made over 15 years later that the Stallone blockbuster for under half the budget (not inflation adjusted). IMO they spent the budget where it mattered and made a decent movie that didn't try an over-reach itself.
I'd really like to see what they could do with a pile of cash as regards a sequel.
Not really. You said "what did they get wrong?", had you said "what could have been improved?" I'd be all for it.
Comes off as a slating, which is more than the film deserves.
Maybe you should have taken the time to read that I was answering a question put to me and that it should be intimated from the fact that I didn't emphasize those issues initially that they were minor, unlike my dislike of Headley.
Dredd, not sure what to make of it to be honest, they got so much wrong and yet so much right, reckon I'd have liked it more if it hadn't had Lena Headley in it, really don't like her for some unexplainable reason.
