After seeing the very low score from IMDb and seeing that The Rock was nominated for the worst actor I had the lowest of expectations for the movie. I had played DooM3, the video game the movie was based from, and I didn't like it either. So, I was prepared for 100minutes of pain.
Well, the movie just sucked me in. A wonderful mess. Something I had never seen before, really. It is similar to Resident Evil (1, not 2). But this one has faster action, cooler actors and better effects/scenes. At the end I was very impressed how much I had enjoyed it.
Karl Urban excels. Rosamund Pike looks like a mistake here. And the Rock... well, he has got to be my favorite crazy-head.
I'm not a 14yrs old video-gamer. In 99% of the bad movies I totally agree with the IMDb voters. But DooM is nowhere near as low as the average says. Its a movie that at least deserves respect for being different. And if you are willing to experience new things and are tired from all those Oscar winners, you'll appreciate DooM.
PS: Its not a 10, more like an 8. But I want its rating to go higher.
