Reviews provided by RottenTomatoes
Robert K. Elder, Chicago Tribune: Despite some solid moves against viewer expectations, Doom ultimately embraces the cliched doom of all video game movies. Read more
Ted Fry, Seattle Times: There's never a dull moment in this surprisingly clever imagining of one of the most popular video games of all time, especially considering that the murderous mayhem and extreme bloodletting that are its hallmarks remain intact. Read more
Richard Roeper, Ebert & Roeper: The performances are awful, the action sequences are impossible to follow, the violence is gratuitous, the lighting is bad and I have my doubts that catering truck was even up to snuff on this project. Read more
Bill Muller, Arizona Republic: The only downside is that you can't use cheat codes to reach the end of the movie. Read more
Wesley Morris, Boston Globe: The only way this movie becomes any fun is when it stops impersonating a game and simply becomes one. Read more
Marc Bernardin, Entertainment Weekly: It's pretty clear by now that characters in sci-fi movies have never seen a sci-fi movie. Read more
Victor Godinez, Dallas Morning News: Doom ain't Shakespeare. But it's not bad. Read more
Chuck Wilson, L.A. Weekly: [I] wonder how the respected cinematographer Andrzej Bartkowiak (Prizzi's Honor, Terms of Endearment) came to direct such muddled, derivative crap. Read more
Gene Seymour, Newsday: ... shows less human dimension than the new Wallace and Gromit movie. Read more
Elizabeth Weitzman, New York Daily News: Not only do we rarely get to participate in the fun -- fun being the chance to watch demon guts splattered across the walls -- but there's barely any to be found. Read more
Roger Moore, Orlando Sentinel: This isn't worth turning off the PlayStation to go see. Read more
James Berardinelli, ReelViews: It's unfathomable how many times Hollywood has struck out in attempts to convert popular video/computer games into movies. This is the kind of misfire that reinforces negative stereotypes. Read more
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times: Doom is like some kid came over and is using your computer and won't let you play. Read more
Peter Hartlaub, San Francisco Chronicle: It takes someone who has actually played the game to explain what a colossally bad idea the Doom movie -- and most films that use video games as source material -- was from the start. Read more
Colin Covert, Minneapolis Star Tribune: Too often Doom is mindless entertainment minus the entertainment. Read more
Jennie Punter, Globe and Mail: Doom has some good jolts and action sequences, and never takes itself too seriously. However, watching the squad roaming around the dark corridors and sewer system of the research station starts to get repetitive. Read more
Malene Arpe, Toronto Star: This movie proves that the best place to enjoy a video game is in your living room with a cordless precision controller iron-gripped in your sweaty hands. Read more
Maitland McDonagh, Time Out: If gaming is about playing, why would a gamer want to watch movies like this? Read more
Justin Chang, Variety: Videogame geeks and LAN-party enthusiasts everywhere, prepare to meet your Doom -- because it's really not all that bad. Read more
Drew Tillman, Village Voice: Yes, Doom is a bad movie but you already knew that. Read more
Desson Thomson, Washington Post: A good movie version of a video game as opposed to, say, an actual movie. Read more
