In this world that can only be described with swear words

"New Special" is much more engaging than "Special", both from the conception of the story and the more mature special effects technology. Of course, the bloody scenes are also more disgusting than their predecessors. In a world like the movie, where only swear words can be used, perhaps only violence can be used to give weak creatures the scattered expectations of life in their hearts.
It is almost unimaginable that an action Western film does not have personal heroism, and the hero Dred is naturally an undisputed positive hero. And the heroine, Andersen, is actually an obscure hero. Dredd is the representative of the law. He is unselfish and cruel in dealing with crime. However, if there is only law to check and balance a city and a country, as the black female prefect said, "the city is out of control", so "it needs her." (Anderson’s) help”, and this Anderson, obviously, is human. Facing a family that lost her husband and father due to being tried, she would feel guilty; facing evil and stubborn criminals, unlike other special police officers, she cleverly used non-violent means to obtain evidence of crimes; Civilians are reluctant to investigate... Even Dred, who has always been ruthless and ruthless, was finally moved by her and changed his decision that he could not pass the SWAT examination. In this specific environment, such heroes often have to pay more and face more dangers. Maybe most of them are behind the scenes, but they are more great and selfless, paying more for the stability of the "city" and for the harmony of the "city" Infuse life and vitality.
At the end of the film, the falling scene of the crime boss Ma-Ma is one of the large-scale special effects scenes of the film and a representative of its special effects design. In the two-minute special effects rendering, falling from the top floor of the 200th floor, due to the specific plot design, people are accompanied by colorful diamonds, passing through the clouds and mist, and flying freely. . This is probably the only true display of the soul of the tragic figure Ma-Ma in this life, and the ending is probably her only relief. It is worth exploring that this group of shots is processed with multiple short shots, although it can better render the atmosphere of the bad environment, but if a group of long shots is used, I wonder if it can increase the tragedy of the fate of a character like Ma-Ma.
In addition, there are many wonderful special effects sections in the film to feast your eyes on. Of course, it was mentioned at the beginning that the bloody scenes are also unsightly, and I hope some audiences will pay attention.
