Oh wow! A movie for Druggies. Not quite, Morons will probably get a kick out of it. But you would need to have no brain, to laugh at this piece of garbage. The acting makes one long for Plan 9 from outer space. I have seen better movies starring Hulk Hogan and Paris Hilton. That's how bad this is. Critics like to jump on the bandwagon and claim oh it's great to try to look hip. When really they are well past there sell by date and so is this movie.

There are far better movies in theatres, avoid this movie like the plague.

1 out of 10, but truly it deserves a minus.

Well i have played various versions of the game and none of them seem to resemble anything that appears in this movie. Well apart from a scene shot in the first person. In fact this appears to be a clone of the first Resident Evil movie. Except nowhere near as good. The movie is mostly in the dark, so why it needed a $70 million budget is beyond me. The Rock is fine as the SGT. And Rosamund Pike is an appealing scientist. But Karl Urban lacks any kind of charisma, to be effective in the main role. Maybe thats due to The Rock being just about the most charismatic action star around.

However the movie is full of zombies disposed of in the usual way. So the movie is full of clichés and has no identity of it's own. Maybe it would be better to make original films, instead of from computer games. Doom was never anything more than a shoot em up in hell. Hell does not appear, which is very strange. Even the creatures are poor. This lacklustre movie gets a 3 out of 10 A Total Waste of Money and Time
