Review of Doom

Doom (2005)
7/10
Trouble on Mars...call in the Marines.
20 April 2006
Warning: Spoilers
Computer gamers get your freak on. Doom explodes on the silver screen. In 2026, there is a frantic call for help from a research station in the Nevada desert on Mars. Something has gone wrong...communications have faded to white noise. A special team of mercenary Marines led by 'The Sarge'(The Rock)and John Grimm(Karl Urban), armed to the hilt, get the mission to quarantine the research station and adjoining archaeological dig. Found alive is Grimm's sister Samantha(Rosamund Pike), a researcher trying to download important info before it gets destroyed. Lurking in the dank and dark are huge creatures killing at will. After losing most of the team, the heavy artillery is brought out and DNA is splattered in every possible direction.

Special effects are great. Uncensored gore, raw and stomach turning is riveting. Rapid and abundant gunfire from awesome weaponry is highly effective. Also in the cast: Ben Daniels, Richard Brake, Robert Russell, Razaaq Adoti and Yao Chin.
