Synopsis

Set in a future where America has become a dystopian wasteland, the story follows the rise of Ma-Ma, a former prostitute who has become a powerful drug pusher with a new and dangerous substance, seeking to take control of the city. The only force capable of stopping her is an elite group of urban police known as Judges, who serve simultaneously as judge, jury, and executioner, enforcing a harsh and immediate form of justice. Even the highest-ranking Judge, Dredd, finds that dismantling Ma-Ma's operation is more complicated than anticipated in this action-packed adaptation of the long-running comic series.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

A crew of 48+ credited

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.

Box Office

2012 · Box office

📉 Underperformed — grossed 0.8× its budget

Why 2.5×?

Cinemas keep roughly half of every ticket sold, and a wide release’s marketing often costs about as much again as the film — so a movie needs to gross around 2.5× its production budget just to break even theatrically. It’s a rule of thumb, not the studio’s ledger (home video and streaming come later).
