Was this a good film? Or should I say, would this be a good blind buy? I loved all the Doom games. I remember the original SNES version, red cartridge, yeah, those were the days.

It didn't exactly light up the box office grossing about $44 million worldwide (including a 72% drop! its second weekend.). I'll rent it, but it looks like something I'd watch only once.

It is NOT a good blind buy, IMO. If you have 90 minutes with nothing better to do than jabbing your eyeballs with a ballpoint pen, then it is worth saving your eyesight and renting it.

The Rock was a fine wrestler and everything but seems to me that all his movies aren't exactly very good or make much money.....oh well I guess he's gotta find a niche somewhere.

I didn't think Karl Urban would have gotten cast billing ahead of The Rock. This reminds me of "Bad Boys" and "Bad Boys II". Martin Lawrence is named first, and then it's Will Smith.

What's with the choice of color on the cover? Isn't Doom...supposed to be dark?
Also, what gives with this fullscreen only bullshit for the rated version?
