*Good special effects.
*The last 13 minutes or so were great. The movie's finale includes a fantastic sequence designed to look just like a FPS game. Not to mention, having the Rock turn into a villian and the other guy become a hero was a great twist.
*The music score/soundtrack is awesome.
The Bad Things
*A very weak adaptation of the computer game. The story line is totally different. There are no scary demons and there is no Hell, just a bunch of ugly zombies on a martian base (albiet, the movie tried to keep up with the demonology by having people turn into demons; it is somewhat interesting).
*The movie itself has a weak filming style. It is very forgetable (save for the last 13 minutes) and indistinctive. I found much of it dull and boring.
Overall, this is like a B-rated flick with good special effects and it just happens to share the title of the computer game. I believed that "Doom" could have been promising as a movie, but this film falls short with its dull photography and uninteresting story. Only the ending is worthwhile (and the soundtrack, if you like metal).
The video and audio quality are good, and the disc has a few featurettes. The unrated version has one or two extra featurettes as well (I'm not sure what makes it unrated, though). June 20, 2008

hunts the search and destroy team sent from Earth.
The acting isn't the best and the idea is pretty much
like a lot of other ancient civilization archways to
other planets( you don't need a spaceship set or time getting there).
The reanimating zombie idea of an infectious gene transmutation
virus isn't very pleasant either.
Not the best sci fi movie... May 4, 2008
