Default DOOM, The Movie.

That girl is hot, beyond a doubt. As for the Rock, i won't spoil the movie if you haven't seen it, but this movie has an interesting twist.

NOt a twist as in "awhhhhhhh, i get it.." But more like... "WHat the F*&#?"

It wasn't too bad, made you kind of jumpy at times.. i kind of want to play the game now and watch SAW II as a result.

I actually really enjoyed the movie... The main background music reminded me a lot of the music in the original game (or was it Doom II) in the last level...

I think it was a great movie...VERY entertaining, and keeps you interested the whole time. The twist was VERY cool

Movies are supposed to be a good time... they have evolved into "visual stories" that can teach a lesson or make you think about something, but at the bottom of it all they were always meant to be fun and a way to kill time.

With that mentality more people would enjoy more movies....more (meaning theyll like the movie they see better, )

Exactly!! That's what I've been trying to say. What bothers me is when people go into a movie like "Pitch Black" (which I too enjoyed...hell, I just about enjoy almost all the movies out there) and come out disapointed with the "acting", "script", "lack of 3 dimensional characters", "story arc", "pacing" ...well...again...what exactly did you expect??!!

I work for the movie industry btw, so technically I should be a little more picky, but part of enjoying a movie is to just sit there and not have to think about the real world around you.

why would anyone expect this movie to be "high art". you come to the movie expecting no intelligent dialog or great acting. It's just a shoot-em-up movie. how can you be disappointed.
I'm not going to see "Shindler's list" and complain that it has no humor.

I expected nothing...and got less..

Lets see, he finds the BFG, and shoots it twice?

He is carrying it, plus 3 other guns that weigh probably 400lbs, no problem

"We gotta get out of here!" "Ok, just wait for 20 seconds while I explain this to you"

"Stay here!" ok, where did she go, and why was she hurt?

The lights work, yet they never turn them on, hell, he even closes the blinds!

The aiming was worse then TBS on a saturday afternoon

They leave one guy with no legs to protect the ark, the gate to earth with a handgun and a grenade? no no, we don't need any backup

I feel ripped off for having seen it, like I was taken.

The people behind this movie should be embarrased, as much as I am for paying to see it

Dido. I got more than I expected and am perfectly happy. I feel sorry for those that expected more.

I'm with Mindcore. They had all the "fixings" to make a much better movie. It looks like the editor should be shot and, just maybe, they should have had SOMEONE working on continuity.
