I just finished watching Doom so I figured I would start up a thread to see what people think of the movie.
Overall I thought it was a pretty decent adaptation from game to film, certainly better than films in the past. They kept a lot of the atmosphere the same as Doom 3 in the UAC facilities. You all will notice things like screens and key cards and even window shutters from the game. It felt like you were in the Doom universe for the most part. It did get a bit ridiculous at parts and the story was of course awful compared to the game. I will not spoil the story for anyone aside from that it is much different than the game's story. Acting was average, there were annoying characters that didn't help the movie, and there were some over the top fight sequences, quite a few actually. A tribute to the God himself, Carmack, of course is in the movie, which I thought was a nice addition, some will think it is stupid and cheesy, but I thought it was good. Anyways, the last 30 minutes of the film was uhhh..... I'll leave it at "uhh". Anyways, post your thoughts guys.
