So I saw it a few hours ago and I have to say it was somewhat disappointing. They did not follow the storyline of the game but they still used the story they made up pretty well. It helps explain a lot of things. The movie could have been a lot better had they stuck to the original storyline.

Action: Poorly developed and when it happens it is usually in short sequences. It's understandable because of the enemies that they are dealing with but they could have had combat in more interesting ways. The combat toward the end was a lot better but it still wasn't very entertaining.

Acting: It didn't feel like the actors were actually going through what their charactors were. It killed the entire mood of the movie.

Graphics: Everything was believeable and they did not hold back on the gore. It's the one thing I rate as above average.

Charactor Development: Everything that you find out about the personalities of the man charactors happens fast and early. This really isn't a problem because it's not what the movie is about.

Camera Work: eh... Could have been a lot better. I really don't know how to describe it.

Plot: Even though they changed it from the game, it still explains what is going on very well. IMHO if the plot was similar to that of the game then the movie could have been made a lot better.

Horror: It's all screamers. I still was paranoid when I got home though.

My rating: 6/10

I went to see it. I enjoyed it. It wasn't the best movie ever, but it was cool...sadly, I felt like the oldest person in the theatre. I swear, I think I was the only one there who didn't think that Doom was a video game from roughly one year ago.

I thought the part with the nano wall and all the mutators trying to get through was cool.

Don't be dissin on the Super Mario Bro's movie.

I didn't think the original Mortal Kombat was that bad.


I'll still end up seeing it because I want to see how they did the first person camera angles.

I automatically assumed it was gonna be crap...i mean almost all game to movie, movies suck...

ie.

Mario Bros, Street Fighter and Resident Evil...Mortal Kombat was good, however Mortal Kombat: Annahalation (Sp?)  was pretty bad...i am missing a bunch i assume, but you get the point

The night the Dungeons & Dragons movie came out in theatres, my brother and two of his friends (all of them major nerds, mind you), went to see a movie...

They refused to tell anyone what movie they were going to see.
