...quietly nuts with her desperate vitality; the turn won her a Hong Kong Film Critics award. Back in the West, she copped a less prestigious prize--a Razzie nomination for worst actress--when she played an Inuit activist in Steven Seagal's On Deadly Ground. In that and Judge Dredd, she was just fabulous-looking furniture...
www.music.sony.com/Music/ArtistInfo/JudgeDredd/index.html Cop Land made Stallone an acteur, but a site from this sci-fi nightmare (describing Dredd as "judge, jury and executioner") is a blast of Sly's past. Can't he sentence this ugly memorial to death...

Alas, director Danny Cannon hasn't the skill to make majestic melodrama plausible. As for the facetiousness, Rob Schneider sweats arsenals of ammunition as Dredd's sarcastic sidekick. But the effect is redundant since Sly is his own comic relief. By now Stallone has become a symbol for all that is goofy and grandiloquent in Hollywood's live-action summer cartoons. The hormone that courses through his movie veins could be called preposterone...
