A team of space marines known as the Rapid Response Tactical Squad, led by Sarge (Karl Urban), is sent to a science facility on Mars after somebody reports a security breach. There, they learn that the alert came after a test subject, a mass murderer purposefully injected with alien DNA, broke free and began killing people. Dr. Grimm (Rosamund Pike), who is related to team member Reaper (The Rock), informs them all that the chromosome can mutate humans into monsters -- and is highly infectious.

Critics Consensus

The FPS sections are sure to please fans of the video game, but lacking in plot and originality to please other moviegoers.

The Rock's ungainly performance is somewhat alleviated by Karl Urban as a crew member and Rosamund Pike as his twin sister, a doctor on the project.

If gaming is about playing, why would a gamer want to watch movies like this?

What might have made for exciting action scenes tend to become mechanical exercises in first-person-shooter monster-blasting.

The Post NZ

Characters keep disappearing and reappearing without explanation and comic moments and moral messages - don't do drugs, genetic tampering is wrong - jar against the action backdrop.

Some of it is good enough to make viewers momentarily forget that all of this is based on a video game series.

Doom somehow takes a game about demons from Hell invading a military base on Mars and turns it into a boring and cliché-ridden film technically devoid of demons entirely...

The movie is alright with some action sequences but this is supposed to be based off a video game who's moto is "Rip and Tear" and so maybe they thought the plot of Doom was dumb, that's no reason the change it entirely because if you only used the guns and monster designs, just name the movie differently and call the guns and monsters something else.

Doesn't really follow the game at all, and the game isn't all that complicated. DOOM enemies are from Hell, not a lab test for extra chromosome. Decent enough of an action movie, just not a good DOOM movie. Gotta admit though, the Pinky reference and Carmack (Tribute to John Carmack) was pretty cool.

This movies pretty cool 😎 👍 but it is nothing like the 90’s games. Hell baron should be hell knight and the BFG is too small. For me it was just the little things but if you have never played the games, it is a fun sci fi movie. 🍿
