Review of Doom (2005) by Tim W — 22 Sep 2014

"Doom" the videogame was adapted into a film structured as a ride with one long hill. As you get the film playing, you're boarding. When the film starts, the ride starts going through the exposition portion of the plot without accelerating through sharp curves. But when the thrills of the hunt starts, you're now on an hour-long ride towards the top of the first and only hill. Then a fresh element for a videogame-based movie popped up that videogamers will love like how rollercoaster riders love going down a steep hill of the ride. But then the ride went back to a similar mode to going through the exposition portion: going through the boring climax. And finally when the film was literally brightening up after the events that'd happened, the ride went back to the boarding area and wait for any more riders.

Videogamers will actually find this a fun movie to really enjoy, while moviegoers will find it little with a nice cast trying to act cool with military tactics (and some occasional humor). But the gores are typically the problem under the violent category that's unappealing for everyone, next to some character developments going wrong ways. (B-).
