Movie Review : Doom - Page 2

Do not under any circumstance see this movie no matter how much a fan you are of either DOOM or The Rock. Don’t waste your money on this trite piece of crap. Don’t even rent it when it comes out on DVD. Wait until it shows up on ShowcaseAction or some other channel.

    Very well written review but not persuasive enough to keep me from making my own mistake. I, like you, am a FPS fan and need to see this flick for myself.

    At least I won't be able to say that you didn't warn me. :-)

    I keep telling myself that with more and more bad reviews, my expectation level will go down enough that I can enjoy the movie a whole lot. Well, at least a little.

    Ah man go for it. Just wasted money IMHO. I had very bad reviews keeping me from going, but last night I just felt like not going home after work, so I stopped by the theatre for time well wasted and instead just got some time wasted. But it gave me the opportunity to purchase Batman Begins at the local DVD store =)

    Is something wrong with the tabling ? My article overshoots the white backgrounded cell?

    Fixed it. You had a div tag after the word "GOOD"

    I mostly went because I took my son and a friend, both gamers. I guess they liked it ok -
    and heck it was a night out and some stale popcorn for me, but still I must say - it was pretty bad. And I can take bad. I can take tons. When it comes to art, I usually say..'well they could do better than me'. In this case. I'm really not so sure.

    but The Rock, well I think he's capable enough. Too bad he had wasn't given anything to work with.

    The BFG couldnt save him from this.
