Doom

Poster for Doom

Based on the legendary first-person PC Shooter, this sci-fi horror stars Karl Urban and Dwayne Johnson as members of a Space Marines unit sent to investigate the mysterious events in a research facility on Mars that has ceased all communication with scientists. What the squad discovers is a monstrosity that their vast firepower may not be able to hold back. Co-stars Rosamund Pike and Deobia Oparei (who would go on to co-star with Urban again for 2012’s Dredd).

IGN

Easily the best videogame-to-film adaptation yet.

The Washington Post

A good movie version of a video game as opposed to, say, an actual movie.

Boston Globe

The only way this movie becomes any fun is when it stops impersonating a game and simply becomes one.

Seattle Times

(A) surprisingly clever imagining of one of the most popular video games of all time...

Chicago Reader

The Rock's ungainly performance is somewhat alleviated by Karl Urban as a crew member and Rosamund Pike as his twin sister...

Variety

Videogame geeks and LAN-party enthusiasts everywhere, prepare to meet your Doom -- because it's really not all that bad.

Time Out

If gaming is about playing, why would a gamer want to watch movies like this?

The Guardian

Charmless and brainless.

Sydney Morning Herald

I kept expecting the "Game Over" message to flash up, but it never did.

Roger Ebert

Doom is like some kid came over and is using your computer and won't let you play.

Hollywood Reporter

There's so little to go wrong that those who like their entertainment mindless and violent will find little fault.

Empire Magazine

What might have made for exciting action scenes tend to become mechanical exercises in first-person-shooter monster-blasting.
