I thought it was ok but nothing special and not actually very Megacity – it basically could have been anywhere and being JD was incidental.
That’s what I thought too. It was fine and all but…
1) Not enough ‘Future Shocks’ Demolition Man and Stallone Dredd did this better – although the tone was often a little off.
2) Megacity was a disappointment – just a current city with some more highrises. Would have preferred something much more cramped and blade-runner-esque. It didn’t benefit from the flyovers at all.
3) Spoiler – the bad judges shouldn’t have been used. There hadn’t been enough context to make it seem like a big deal. We saw more bad judges than good ones.
4) Not enough humour. Getting the grit/cheese balance must be hard though.
It would probably have to be a big budget lengthy TV series to do the comics justice. Get the Game of Thrones people on the job!
