Sarge: -because Carmack’s condition is that he’s dead.
This movie is beyond great
Bhris H That quotable was 🔥
He loses his shit and it's AMAZING!!
I thought it was pretty good. I've seen it more than once willingly.
This is one of my favorite movies tbh.
This movie is like the perfect movie to watch while drinking
We don't need a Metal Gear movie because the games themselves are basically 80% movie
James Wright yea they are damn man
True
James Wright Don't play MGS4 without popcorn
Metal Gear Solid: The Movie: The Game II Premium Edition
yeah but then you wouldnt need a ps2, ps3 and ps4 to play them all
I'll admit it : I like Doom. Like, really. With all its nonsense cheesiness, and the always freakishly awesome Karl Urban.
Same!!
It is a badass horror film! I do not understand why people would hate something similar to Predator (1987) or Aliens (1986) as Chris Stuckmann said. I just accept it gratefully.
@@GioAtero because it's adapted from a game that's not a schlocky action horror thing and turned exactly into that. Don't get me wrong, the Doom 2005 movie is still an okay watch... Just without the DOOM name. Check out the Doom review by Possum Reviews, you'll know.
Let me make this clearer: this movie is more budget Resident Evil or Dead Space (keyword is budget) than Doom. Doom is about fearlessly running around with guns and hunting demons down in cold blood. That's not what this movie is. Furthermore, some people like to put down the argument that Doom games have no lore (as if this movie has a lot of lore that makes any sense in the first place). That's blatantly wrong. The last two Doom titles have enough lore both in visual and text form that you could write several books on them and still keep everything interesting
Retronite DOOM (2016) & DOOM: Eternal (2020) did not exist back in 2005, just DOOM 3 (2004), which was an action-horror title. I do not know why people narrow their acceptance, there is enough variety and quality for all, and the film is to date the best DOOM adaptation. If you want the filmic adaptation from the new virtual simulators; maybe you must take a look over DOOM: Annihilation (2019). It turned ugly! Worst than the one I love.
@@GioAtero I watched a review on D:A before I watched the first Doom movie so yeah I know about it. Both of the movies suffer from the same issue, I'll be honest. They made Doom seem more horror than badass. I'll let the first Doom movie get away because... Yeah Doom 3 was the latest installment of that time so it kinda made sense and the monster designs were fine (still doesn't excuse the lazy and cheesy writing and the fact that they replaced demons with scifi monsters). But if universal had learnt anything from that experience, they'd get the director who made Hardcore Henry and make a 2 hour long movie about killing hell spawned demons, and not fucking D: A
imdb:
Dwayne Johnson was offered the lead role of John Grimm but chose the role of Sarge because he thought it was more interesting.....
That's a typical Dwayne Johnson mind. he probably thought Sarge is a powerful character where he can play himself lol
@@v-trigger6137 he only played himself for half of the movie the other half he got angry when his squadmate sister the girl scientist was hiding something then he was aggressive & angry for the rest of the movie.
@@v-trigger6137 & not that's typical dwayne johnson.
He tried to pull an Arnold there picking the bad guy thinking it would become famous lmao
@@nerdygameraddicts861 lmao he himaelf said he picked the role because they give him that choice
We already have a good Doom movie. It's called Hardcore Henry.
Asuna Yuuki Didn't know there were demons in Hardcore Henry
Asuna Yuuki first movie to give me a headache lol
So, because it's in first person, it's DOOM? I didn't know Hardcore Henry took place on Mars and in hell with demons.
BIG BOSS Neither the Doom movie.
Pretty sure that is crap because it's not based off the damn video game, and I'm pretty sure if I looked up the plot it has no aliens as villains.
Also it's about 1 damn character while Doom like Navy Seals or Alien is about multiple characters.
So nope Alien or Aliens is way damn closer than its so damn far from the ballpark Hardcore Henry
"But it just has the Rock as a monster, so that is a major plus for anything"
Not really, remember The Mummy Returns.
BTW I thought that the FPS scene was amazing and it made the movie for me when I saw it. For me it was FPS scene = amazing, Final fight = decent, everything else = shit. That FPS scene with that music was pure gold.
Edit = I just re watched that scene and I remembered the music to be way better. So after re watching it I think that that scene is good, not amazing but good. But if you mute it and watch it with the Doom theme music it might be amazing.
I member the Scorpion King... Ugh...
Ahhhhh the rock when he was still human size... good times.
Where's that Gods of Egypt hilariocity you promised us?
Jonathan Sefcik up ur ass lmfao 😂😂😂😂😂😂
spade2187 eh.... ha?
I actually enjoyed that movie. It was bad and the CGI was an eyesore but it was entertaining as a movie should.
WHAT THE EFF, GOD OF EGYPT IS AMAZING, ITS LITERALLY ONE OF MY FAV FILMS FROM 2016, MY GOD IM SO OFFENDED
spade2187 Did you just laugh at your own joke and spam the "😂" emoji?
I can safely say that this is a guilty pleasure of mine hah.
JoeAXE Cleave thank you ffs
Basic Thuganomics yeah same with me man, straight up go out of my way to watch this, just a fun little sci fi that shouldn't be called DOOM but i enjoy it a lot
Basic Thuganomics and my favourite flick is LOTR so
Ditto
JoeAXE Cleave same
29 blinks I actually counted
I went through the comments just to see if someone did lol
I was gonna like your comment but I mean...I can’t 😂
Its 32 times slow it to .25 speed
this is a huge guilty pleasure for me.
Mugh Hungus you could say it's HUMOUNGUS
Ren Outlaw no it's muhungous
patriarchy
yes
Did you just sexually harass me?
"Doom is like some kid came over and is using your computer and won't let you play." - Robert Ebert
They made a DOOM movie without Doom Guy or anything related to Hell
HundredJono So it's also a Resident Evil movie rip off too. A virus that infects people and turns them into monsters. Except for the main character, who instead gets super powers.
This was based on Doom 3, not the original Doom. at it says in the Doom 3 wiki.
and still it has nothing to do with doom 3
jose miguel briceño -yeah even though the monsters here almost looked like in the actual game.-
Only The Pinky and IMP, tgats where The simmilarities end
In case you missed it, The Rock's character starts going evil because he touches the infected monkey blood after they kill it in the vent. I know, they could just have him go crazy and wouldn't be much different but the idea is he is infected like all the scientists.
Also the reality of the suggested ending is kind of horrifying - both characters who survived are going back to Earth carrying the virus that makes people either demigods or horrible monsters. So...yeah.
Good observation. I always thought he was always kind of a bad dude, just hid it well or never was in a situation like this that made him have to show it.
cause he touched infected blood doesn't mean that infected him lol touching obviously can't infect them, it most likely would have to enter their bodies and blood stream, idk where you got that from lmao plus what sense would it make from them to bite him on his neck by the end of the movie if he was already infected early on?
@@Dre-yd2xh yeah the rock gets dragged away when the squad meets up near the end & the rock comes back from getting dragged away he comes back infected so it was never monkey blood.
He was already a douche before the monkey blood
I'm 5 years late, but didn't he get bitten on his neck after the fourth wall break scene of "I'm not supposed to die!"?
Arrow Seasons 1 and 2 use flashbacks very efficiently as a core feature of the show.
SeerSmashChannel Yep, love the first 2 series, and now it's crap. Oh well, at least we the Flash!
OITNB also uses them excellently.
Batpod05, much better than Season 4.
doom is better than house of the dead
Luis Diaz ain't sayn shit
doom is not even a "so bad its funny" movie. its just not an A+ movie thats all. Weird pick IMO.
anything is better than house of the dead
Luis Diaz yes i can watch that every month . for the rest my life
Doom movie is better than AssCreed movie.
Compares two ENTIRELY different quotes.
"If it breathes, kill it." Meaning everyone and everything that is alive here needs to be executed.
To
"If it bleeds, we can kill it." Meaning it isn't immortal, we have a fighting chance...
What???
While I also think the meaning is different, the sentence structure coupled with other similarities in the movies does make the impression of Doom copying Predator. It's a one-liner, of course, but they could have phrased it differently.
@@laszlobencebari8677 Its actually a standard villain trope. "If it breathes, kill it." It was specifically there to help establish the Rock's character is now the villain. Like the movie isn't good, but its suprising how many people don't understand this movie.
@@Lowlightt Sure, but there's also the obvious pussy joke reference as well which lends a lot of credence to the idea that the, "if it breathes, kill it," line is a reference to Predator, not to mention the similar line delivery.
The Rock looks skinny in this..
Kieran Fitzpatrick this was a long time ago
+Kurtis Jemison Gr8 Deb8 M8
Kieran Fitzpatrick You're obviously not very bright.
+Kurtis Jemison Please elaborate....
Kieran Fitzpatrick Are you really that stupid? You must be trolling.
"A simple game that broke some new boundaries". WHAT?! That is a massive understatement, my friend.
Glad I'm not the only one that thinks that. Like what the hell, I thought Chris was supposed to be a gamer
Zanemob graphics were top shelf at the time, first stages of 3D imagery behind only spear of destiny which wasn't as complete, smoothest combat at the time. Blood and guts you rarely saw in games up until that point, etc.
@Zanemob Say that in 1993.
Yeah you can tell he’s too young to have enjoyed any of the Doom games, Wolfenstein...or Duke Nukem. I enjoyed the movie and it knew exactly what it was. Could it have been better? Sure but I was 13 when Doom came out and we used to play death match and team battles on LAN in after school computer class!
@@zanemob1429 you clearly don't know much! Watch retroahoy's video on Doom if you are interested to know what you're missing. It's a lot!
I watched the "hell" outta this movie when I was like 15.
Sam Salem lmao "hell"
Heh, heh... You said "the"!
Heh, heh... You said "the"!
It would have been nice if "Hell" was even in this movie.
Dark Tenka Instead, we only get Heck.
Welcome to Heck.
am the only one who actually enjoyed this movie?
Aaron Buenaventura It was ridiculous and i had no expectations going in, but i did like it a lot
Aaron Buenaventura no there are others in the comments who say they liked it.
amber lopez whatever makes you sleep at night honey
It wasn't good, but it was VERY entertaining to watch and laugh at
Did you enjoy watching it or did you think that it was a good movie?
"Wait till you get home (to start cutting yourself)" - Chris Stuckmann, 2016
I actually somehow kind of liked this movie. idk why... just did
Love the Hilariocity series - great stuff! If you haven't seen the Uwe Boll ( the name that strikes fear in the heart of all movie lovers) Far Cry movie - it's definitely worth as an Hilariocity addition - brace yourself!! All the best , Toby
i dunno... i really liked this movie despite everything lol
John Leguizamo is from Colombia not Puerto Rico.
Christian Garcia he’s half Puerto Rican
By the looks of it Assassin's Creed will need a Hilariocity too
Miguel Moniz I don't think that movie will be funny bad
Not really, it just looks generic and boring.
it was boriiiiiing
Miguel Moniz assassins creed takes itself too seriously to be a hilariocity
This movie is definitely based off of Doom 3. The dark lighting, the attempt at horror, less of a focus on action, I'm getting a lot of Doom 3 vibes.
I did not hit her its bullshit I DID NOT...oh hi Mark, this intro is priceless
5:56 Fun fact, the actor who plays Goat, the one who cuts his arm after taking the Lord's name in vain, is Ben Daniels the same actor who played the main priest, Father Marcus on the Exorcist tv series and he was also in Rogue One as General Merrick too. Awesome review, Chris, I LOL'ed.
10:16 DUDE I AM SO FUCKIN' DONE LMAO
Right!!! .. I lost my shit at this part .. well done .. almost meme worthy.
Dark Tenka I'm sure this is on its way to vine lol
I actually enjoyed this film, but then again it's been a while since I've seen it.
Ew, wtf, where did that Doom footage come from? A Super Potato Entertainment System?
There's actually a Super Potato Entertainment System?
Rebel Flame 😂No.
Here is how to make a good doom movie. Recast the rock and have him shoot and rip hellmonsters in pieces for 80 minutes straight.
I expect my writer paycheck in a few days
apparently ASSASSINS CREED is awful. It's over. There will never be good video game movie. Dammit. It was the chosen one!
tropicAces The last two I'm having hope for are the Mortal Kombat reboot and the Gears of War movie in production
Cabe Man I'm hoping the Lara Croft reboot is good.
I'm kinda hoping Gears is a noire-esk movie like SIn City.
tropicAces for me The last of us movie is the chosen one, whenever they start production...
Tyler CEO NFGxFSUxInc. no even if it is good the fan base will hate it
Doom & Super Mario Bros. I honestly don't mind them, still better than House of The Dead.
I counted 32 blinks. Was I right?
oh?
I was 4872.7 blinks off.
I still loved this movie.
Bro this movie is based on Doom 3. Not the other Doom games.
Wait Chris is sitting on a chair? I always thought he was standing up. Everything I know is a lie!
I, thankfully, always thought he was sitting down. So this has strengthened my faith
Jack Healy Take the blue pill and it'll be as if u never found out about Chris sitting down.
Something tells me that Chris just isn't that short....
The Silent Observer He's actually 6'4
I guess Chris has never heard of Doom 3. Though I wish the makers of the movie had played it -.-
take a shot everytime Dr. Carmack blinks
The "I'm bettin' he didn't have a very good day" is one of the best line deliveries I've ever seen. That was phenomenal.
4:10 When he talks about movies falling into traps about science mumbo jumbo. Who the F doesn't have at least some idea what archaeology, genetics, and weapons research is? In the second scene he shows they are clearing checking for anything out of the normal, as they scan for elements. Perhaps they don't want to breath in Chlorine, I wouldn't.
4:43 Calls clearing sectors "sneaking" I guess you watch any military movie of them clearing rooms in a house "sneaking" . This just shows a limited understanding of how a trained military organization would handle going into an area with numerous rooms and the forewarned knowledge that something is amiss in said area.
9:55 Bio Force Gun (for the movie, not elaborated on)
11:23 The Rock or Sarge didn't go crazy or nuts. He is the commander of the mission and he didn't kill The Kid for no reason. The kid disobeyed direct orders and then after being told again said no, Sarge couldn't have someone like that down there with him while they were clearing the area of potentially infected people that could fuck up the whole surface.
(He says the creature comes so no one has to explain the kids death, but in the scene shown the rock states the kid died for not following orders)
12:18 He says that our protagonist is just given an injection. For some reason Chris Stuckmann never seems to acknowledge C24 or the dig site from where all of this mess comes from.
13:20 The whole story is about C24 and the Mission to obtain the data and come back clean. Our protagonist can clearly see that the Rock is infected now and can't let him out of the Quarantine zone now as the infection would spread if he did. Once that fight b/t Reaper and the Rock was done, the story was mainly done. It would of been nice to have some scenes with Reaper getting a debriefing after the F fest but the goal at the start was achieved.
The story wasn't hard to follow. The only big tech mojo was the Ark and the BFG as we have no real understanding of how they work, but that's not story killing. Since we know the Ark came from the civilization before. (the ones in the ruins)
Ima go watch me some doom!
Divine Linker Why would do that to yourself?
Divine Linker Yeah me too!!!
On my ps4 with a controller
9:58 speaking of that my friends and i found the book and change it to 'Big Fucking Garbage' instead. I know is childish but we died laughing
Is it really that bad that I kinda like this movie?
Nah. You're good, since Doom:ANALhilation exists now
@@MauZangetsu
Oh good. Phew.
Actually there playing around in the beginning isnt as bad as it seems since they thought they were going on vacation not active duty
doom is a guilty pleasure movie
The Divergent series for the next Hilariocity?
Both are unholy pieces of crap
I think this movie is Hilariocity material if it was trying to be serious. But I just rewatched and with memes like "If they were so smart, how come they're so dead?" and "i'm not supposed to die" I realize now the movie is a parody! And its genius like that haha.
Maybe you could do a re-review along with the new doom annihilation movie.
I just watched this review, haven't seen the movie or a trailer or anything, and I'm already convinced this is a movie I want to watch! Looks pretty good! Especially for a movie that came out in 2005. And if you've ever played the original Doom games, you know it's all about gratuitous pleasure/horror, story comes second, if at all.
And does anyone ever comment how good looking Chris is? Anyone..no...just me.
My favorite scifi isolation style movie is deff Pandorum. I love that movie (even though it didn't do well when it first came out). Also, I wish the Doom movie was more so how it is in the game (portals on Mars and the moons of Mars that basically unleash Hell/Inferno on Earth). Then Doomguy space marine just blasts his way through it all!
@Judge Dredd Yeah I agree. I actually think it's a pretty decent movie in regards to building suspense too. I deff felt trapped on that ship with them, haha.
I am not saying this movie is the best but his review and unfunny jokes actually making me support this movie. Any movie can be made illogical if you wanna hate it so bad. Last scene after the main guy got the serum was badass.
Is he doing video game movies because of Assassin Creed?
15:17
AcousticMaster104 did you watch the video
Granted, Dwayne was infected by the thing when he got taken through the wall. That's why he goes insane. I was disappointed that they didn't take advantage of the one interesting sci-fi element in this movie when killing Dwayne "Demon" Johnson, because they had plenty of time to do it: splitting him in two via the portal thing because nothing comes back from that kind of crap. insteade, he's ended by something as lame as a grenda, and he doesn't even swallow it. Biggest letdown in the film.
3:59, the word quarantine will never feel the same
Nice original comment
this movie's plot could've been very simple: a facility was testing some sort of teleportation device and they accidentally open a portal to hell (but they don't even need to mention it was hell). Then a whole bunch of demon creatures pop out of the portal and kill almost everyone. The ones who weren't kill got possessed and became zombies. The Rock's team picks up a distress signal and they go to the facility to check it out then they come across Rosamund Pike's character and she helps them since she works there. I don't even play the game, I just made that up with my little knowledge of it that i picked up from wikipedia.
Do a hilariocity review of Looney Tunes: Back in Action
LASTOLYMPIAN agreed
Well flashbacks are better than text scrolls. Or narration xD
or a brick wall of exposition o3o
It feels like the guy at 1.55 is trying to send a Morse code message with eyes
Raise your hand (aka like this comment) if you also want to see that Legend of Zelda movie made eventually.
Kate's Katering I'd like to see a Legend of Zelda movie directed by Guillermo del Toro or Peter Jackson.
Kubo and the Two Strings kinda is but seeing how video game based movies are I'm not sure.
I'd say Legend with Tim Curry And Tom Cruise is more of a Zelda game.
Nah would rather see a movie about the legend27 cos he keeps kicking ass
All of the rocks movie belongs on the hilariousity list. So does Kevin hart movies.
J Nguyen I'd agree with some of the rocks movies... But I think a good portion of them are legitimate good movies
J Nguyen I thought Faster was pretty good
YES!
Maybe it’s just me but it’s one of my favorite video game movies 🤷🏾♂️
8:59 “Friday night - 2:30 in the morning”. Hahahahahah lol nice one mate👍🏻👌🏻😂😂😂
Wait, have you ever seen The Rock NOT play The Rock? Cause I haven't. Just watched this at 2am and you're right, it is the perfect time. Enjoyable enough movie for what it is although they could've made Karl Urbans character cooler when he became superhuman but actually, in saying that he did beat a monster Rock so maybe he was cool enough. Fun flick that wasn't as cheesy as I thought it was going to be.
Also, I think it's a shame Urban hasn't really been able to find any really good parts, action or otherwise as he's a good actor but hasn't won the Hollywood lottery unfortunately.
This is one of my guilty pleasures I'll be honest.
Mine too XD
RedLightning007 same lol
The movie isn't that bad and that one scene was awesome.
yea I'm with you on that
I saw this movie when I was a kid and loved it and still do for some strange reason
the "best" part of this movie, is when The Rock says "I'm not supposed to die."
🤨
Nope, semper fi motherfucker...faithful to the Corp John.
But let’s be real. Doom: Annihilation made this movie look like an Academy Award Winner
> Let’s be real.
> Isn’t.
They just had to call the second movie “Annihilation” like another little bad sequel we all know 😅
I completely agree. I actually liked this movie. I was very involved with the Doom franchise. Lots of great memories playing this game linked up with my friends....in the 90's. I still watch this movie. You don't see the Rock as a bad guy very often. Star Trek Voyager had him as a mean alien fighter but other than that, he's usually a good guy.
@@ICARUS_I “MORTAL KOMBAT!”
You are God damn right
I mean... DOOM could make for an awesome movie if done right, even when it was a much simpler game.
Also it really feels like aliens because it was based on doom 3... not a good choice in retrospective
Just make it like John Wick. They kill his rabbit, not knowing they fucked with the wrong guy, and he wages a one man war against the legions of Hell. That sounds fucking amazing.
progste I agree. Look at The Raid or Dredd, both of which had a simple (if similar) premise and they were awesome.
Wolfenstien The New Order would be an easy and great adaptation.
Personally i love this movie. Yes it's cheap and cheesy but it is definitely fun.
Agree!!! I liked this movie.. it was fun!
Doesn't belong in Hilariocity
I will say one good thing about this movie - Karl Urban certainly looks the part for Doomguy.
And to those who say this movie has nothing to do with the games, consider this: the backstory of the original Doom game involves Doomguy being sent to Mars as punishment for assaulting his commanding officer, who was killing innocent civilians. The end of this movie involves Karl Urban fighting his CO, who was killing innocent civilians.
Now that doesn't necessarily make this a *good* movie, but it's an interesting connection.
You are a great movie critic Chris, But where is Super Mario Bros hilariocity review!
The Dance Party up ur ass!! 😂😂😂😂
spade2187 hey spade, Kiss my ass and get a life!😂

spade2187 Original Jokes okay got one, Yo momma's so fat, that when she fell, no one was laughing but the ground was cracking up!
"Doom was a simple game that broke a few boundaries and people were impressed by it"
Talk about a understatement. Doom invented the FPS genre along with it's little bro Wolfenstein 3D.
Dude Wolfenstien 3D came several years before DOOM
@@thedeepfriar745 several years? if my math is correct, from 1992 to 1993 it is only 1 year....
@@thedeepfriar745 the first fps was maze runner.
Quake and Doom
Originally Wolfenstein was released in 1981 by Muse Software. and it is considered to be the prototype of stealth genre
~the main problem for me with this movie was - it wasn't doom, it was a rehash of resident evil . . .
THANK YOU!!!! :D
Movie: people sneaking around trying to avoid the monsters
Actual Doom: a really badass man running around and shooting everything
Yep
it was supposed to be based off doom 3
Will Huey yeah but they didn’t do a good job of it and I think they should’ve looked at more source material than just that.
At least the recent Doom reboot is badass as hell.
+Cory Baxter
And it's glorious.
Sinon Asada (the drum noise they use when someone says a pun)
Brian Scalabrine fuck yes
Brian Scalabrine It is a testament to all that is BRUTAL and awesome about videogames. A true landmark title for past,future and present fans of this series AND genre. All hail DOOM in all it's iterations and glory
Velociraptor516 AKA HJM (cringe) That game needed to happen...no franchise is perfect and this one needed it's flaw. that flaw is DooM 3
A Doom movie without the doom marine is like a Bond movie without James Bond.
Karl Urban was supposed to be him. He turns into a perfect god-like half-angel demon killer at the end because of the injection that changed his genetic makeup which turned everyone else into demons. Subtly hinting that his girlfriend is an "angel" too with the imagery.
Samoutuomas wrong true doom marine will rip and tear , make all the demons his bitch without some performance enhancing drugs...
ozzy syd
Well, not in Doom 1-3...
Samoutuomas it's his sister not his girlfriend
Ryan Jenkins : Oh yeah...makes more sense too. Been a while since I saw this film but got an unrated version of it on DVD when it came out.
There is a reason for The Rocks transformation. You were probably bored and missed the main plot point of the movie.
They were performing super soldier experiments. Its similar to the Captain America serum from the comics. Add that to the list of stuff they copied. They modified it, but its essentially the same thing. It draws out what's inside of you. If you are good, (Carl's character) it turns you into a super human. If you are evil, (most of the space marines) it turns you into a monster.
Also, the monsters are able to sense if you are evil. If you are evil, they infect you with their mutated suckers that basically has the serum in it. If you are good they try to kill you without infecting you. The Rock's character was infected by a creature early on and hid it from the others. That's the reason for his transformation; both mental and physical.
Yeah those fuckers had the audacity to make a plot on super soldier serums 10 years before the captain American movies. How fucking dare they? Or anyone else for that matter
Yeah, it's always kind of weird if a reviewer complains about something when it's so obvious they didn't pay enough attention. That bit is so super obvious in the movie ... I also think they did a fairly good job with the characters, yes a lot of them had easy identifiable quirks, but you also had a lot of interactions between them that fleshed them out a bit.
Like the Seargent, they introduced him fairly well, yeah it was shirtless scene but they gave him that tattoo for a reason, just like the instructions he got played into how he was affected. That explaination scene about the legs, well there was more to it, but I guess complaining about a tiny flashbacks is more important than paying attention to what is going on ...
Ignorant Phuck
I said COMICS not movie.
Depends what comic you read. I don't think the original was a serum. Updated comics and related media (such as the 90's Spiderman cartoon) had it as a serum.
Dude that's exactly what I said, i've seen this movie multiple times through years and its pretty damn clear that chris wasn't even paying attention to the movie. This must be one of the worst movie reviews I've ever seen, I've watched this review TWICE and haven't found a VALID reason on why is as bad as he says it is, with his statements its pretty clear that he wasn't paying attention and some of them don't even make SENSE. I can write a whole essay on why this review is bad and another one on how this movie connects to the game pretty well, and you don't even need to overthink stuff in order to understand it you just need to know the games plot/universe and then watch this movie. This movie is definitely an above average film.
Rosamund Pike is so hot in this.
I think it's safe to say Rosamund Pike is hot in everything.
Everness I know, but people look better at times.
+Everness Especially Gone Girl
especially when she cut Neil Patrick Harris's throat and blood cover all of her body...fucking hot
+ZIZ Ng She looks great in red.
Carl Urban is ALWAYS the best character. It's just one of those Things, I Guess.
Well Lord of the Rings TT and RotK is pretty debatable, but other than that you're pretty much right.
And the chronicles of riddick movie.
Carl Urban is criminally underrated. he should be the next Wolverine
And hes a great country singer too....
Karl*
The BFG was a better doom movie.
+Kash Akinsade clever
+Kash Akinsade you get two shekels
Lol
+johnJG421 You mean Doom (2016) right?
Rip And Tear... UNTIL IT IS DONE
Wasn't the reason for the Rock going insane given?? It's alluded he's been infected by the C24 chromosome by this point, which basically overrides the weaker part of the good/evil side of your personality, mutating the people to whatever demon/angel they're inherently capable of being....or was that just my brain covering up for the movie subconsciously :3
njldst2007 you are 💯 correct. I have watched this movie quite a few times. I actually find it enjoyable as a check your brain at the door kind of movie.
Yes
no i got the same thing, doom is weirdly one of my favorite movies and i actually liked it for the most part
Yeah that was actually the whole theme of the movie. Good and evil is inherent. So... This review is like he never really watched the movie and just read about it through a poorly written synopsis.
@MR Esotericana because the movie didn't do a good job of portraying the plot. It's a shitty movie.
Doom was a game that revolutionized fps games forever. Hell, it was so revolutionary that Bill Gates even used it promote windows.
ohh i remember them old days running DOS mode to play /Doom2
Anirudh Menon well he's more movies than games so I'll let it slide that he didn't give it as much credit as it deserves
Christian Diaz I dont think the OPs statment was an argument but just a basic fact...not every response is deffensive.
Gates was using god mode though
Anirudh Menon
I actually like doom, it's a nice dumb movie to watch
agree. its a typical dwane johnson movie. turn your brain off and just enjoy ^^. i liked the ego shooter scene really much
Dude after Assassin's Creed I don't think you want a Metal Gear Solid movie
Kate B don't worry we still have the cutscenes
If all cut scenes from all mgs we would have a timespawn of the lord of the rings trilogy
As stupid as it is, I have hope. The director actually cared and talked to Kojima. He even made all of his crew play the games at his house.
As someone who just recently played all of the Assassin's Creed games I think the movie was good.
AC was just awful... The only hope i have is that Uncharted fan movie. If that got made into a full movie it could be a good movie.
What's wrong with Assassin's Creed?
The guy who the made the movie Hardcore Henry should have made this movie
He’d make an awesome Mirror’s Edge movie.
Come on Chris, the fps part is the best bit of the movie :p
Gotta be honest, I like the Doom movie. Its my so bad its good movie. At least for me. I know its bad, but its just so fun to laugh at.
I don't think Doom is that bad
YES!! i love the Doom movie too!!, i wish they made... a better one, learning from all there mistakes, but a summer bluckbuster!! Wow!!! i wanna see that!!! Value Production! Value Script!
It's almost like, it's such an atrocity.... its hilarious 🤔
*mind explodes*
Likewise.
It definitely has a “Guilty Pleasure” vibe. I enjoy it
"It was his first mission!"
"But it's not gonna be my last!"
I literally keep rewinding that part and laughing!
Honestly, they missed so many tricks here. No Doom Guy, no iconic demons (Lost Souls, Cacodemon, ect), no double-barrelled shotgun, not even a modern homage to the iconic E1M1 theme. The lack of care or love for the source material is what puts me off this movie, they just really missed some easy wins that wouldn't have been hard to pull off. A descent into literal hell would've been an amazing climax, much more than Johnson and Urban squaring off. Imagine Doom Guy fighting a Cyberdemon in the literal depths of hell, that'd be metal as fuck and hilarious fun.
yes!!!!
Wait until you see doom annihilation
Supposedly they were trying to make Karl Urban’s character doom guy. But they never made it clear enough
Karl is the doom guy. It goes POV at the end
Sneaking around while fighting demons is the antithesis of what Doom is all about
Iroquois Plisken Like I said....
Ben Wasserman yes but it doesn't make for an interesting movie...watching them endlessly wander around isn't cinematic, wandering around in a video game is because it's necessary, practical!
Ben Wasserman only doom 3. Doomguy doesnt sneak
Richard Desmond then maybe Doom wasn't the best video game to based this movie off of.
They're not even demons. They're closer to mutants. Movie would've been better with a bigger focus on action, with a few fireballs flying around.
HOW VERY DARE YOU!
The Doom Film is a masterpiece in every way.
Araneatrox no
Araneatrox the Doom movie doesn't the most important of the game, the demons
He’s probably joking guys calm down
Who else would LOVE a well-made *Dead Space* movie? Simple premise, some originality in the plot, recreating the isolation, suspense and curb-stomping action on the Ishimura, Sam Raimi on necromorph effects, David Lynch directing?
I don't know if I'd want *2-3* made as films though, maybe adapt the ending to this so it can be more conclusive without being left open for sequels? Now, the big question: *Who should play Isaac Clarke* (Gunner Wright, duh)*?*
*#TwinkleTwinkleLittleStar* ⭐
As much as I'd like this to happen, there's no doubt they're going to completely wreck it, lol.
Keith I'd prefer a Bloodborne movie.
doctor deepwater Not necessarily, depends on who's in charge. I know it's easy to assume the worst about game-based films, but some admittedly are better than others.
Ridley Scott could do well if he understands the source material and listens to fan feedback. Necromorph effects alone would be terrifying if well-balanced between practical & CGI, I'd bet on Raimi to deliver any time.
The story would focus on the best elements, prioritizing survival while lessening the Unitology subplot. The Ishimura itself would be the star (especially in the anti-gravity).
And like I said, they can adapt the ending to solidly conclude Isaac's story. Maybe have a necromorph Nicole kill him on the escape ship after he destroys the Hive Mind?
This would be similar to the game but with Nicole appearing physically. Isaac can find her body after the revelation that she'd killed herself and carry her aboard (they had a scene like this in the *Downfall* prequel).
Sounds like you have a good plan there, sir! Dead Space certainly has a solid plot that would make a pretty marvellous film, given the chance for greatness.
On a side note, any good game-based movies to recommend me? Most of them I've seen are awful, so it'd be nice to get a few suggestions to change my perspective on it.
doctor deepwater There are no masterpieces, per say, but some have had decent to exceptional quality in terms of story, characters, or portraying the game lore. My top recommendations would probably be:
*Wreck It Ralph* (technically not based upon a pre-existing property but still a game-focused movie that references several well)
*Resident Evil: Degeneration* (cg animated)
*RE: Damnation* (also cg)
*Silent Hill* (good effort put into recreating enemies, effects and music from the game, plot is okay, AVOID the sequel at all costs)
*RE: Apocalypse* (live-action, some cool fight scenes and Nemesis looks awesome).
"The Scene" is amazing, I love it! It's one of my favourite movie moments ever
Is there any video game movie that's actually good?
Wreck it Ralph and Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World don't count as they aren't video game adaptations, but instead tribute to video games.
EDIT: Ok, I got answers in the comments and there are movies like that out there. Thanks to everyone who replied and liked this comment.
Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children, Resident Evil: Degeneration, Resident Evil: Damnation, and Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV.
Thank you, I might check some of these out.
+Blaze The Movie Fan keep in mind they are all animated
Blaze The Movie Fan mortal combat
Gabrihel, well I agree with you on one thing, Warcraft is an awesome movie.
Man, Predator is such a good fucking movie. I don't blame them for ripping it off to be honest.
I don't think I would even call this a "guilty" pleasure. I honestly like this movie. It never takes its self seriously. It's a lot of fun. It's an old fashion monster movie.
bob roberts Yes, thank you ,honestly
yeah it took a few watches for it to grow on me and while it's far from a masterpiece it's also not bad enough to be a Hilariocity imo ...my main issue would probably be that there isn't more Doom lore in it but judging it on its own it's not bad and unlike some movies that are supposedly better i can watch this one numerous times and not get bored of it
I like Doom. It could’ve been better but I appreciate that it doesn’t try to be something it isn’t. It knows exactly what it is and just goes with it. Like you said: the Rock turns into a freaking monster. And Karl Urban is always awesome.
I hear they are making a reboot. I think it would be hilariously fun if it was all filmed in first person like Hardcore Henry was. Especially if they can keep the nuttiness.
Tbh, I love this movie. It's sort of a guilty pleasure for me.
Slimie one of my favorite movies and one of my favorite video game movies and games
