Since I don't think you mentioned it: "Pinkie" is another Doom reference: It's the name of one of the enemy types in the game series. Namely, the big pink monsters, who turn invisible in later levels.
Just want to toss out that names like "the Destroyer" are totally names marines, soldiers, etc would use. Also, you don't give yourself your nickname. Everyone else decides it for you.
I have a soft spot for this film. It's dumb of course, but it's an inoffensive sort of dumb with occasional moments of wonderful black humor, as you outlined. By the way, thank you for liking my dinky Lovecraft video. It was a pleasant surprise. :)
In Hardcore Henry they also didn't entirely CG on an actors arms, they used go-pro's for the majority of the film. *(in the grenade launcher scene they did technically CG it)*
I also have a soft spot for this film.. tbh you could just remove the title and it'd be any other sci-fi esque in space shooter, but I give the movie the credit of trying for the most part. As well as the actors going through real mock military training in preparation.. despite the small mishap with the "hoo-rah" vs "Ooh-rah"
This is probably one of the better video game movies out there. I own it and have watched it many times. It's just an easy, fun movie. But I'm not super familiar with the game, so I can watch this without comparing the two.
This is one of those truly great, terrible movies I can't help but enjoy. I mean, Karl Urban squaring off with the Rock? Funzies. Also, "They're marines, Sam, not poets." I always thought the implication there was that there monikers were picked for them by their comrades, like kids in school. It would go some way to explaining ones like The Kid and Destroyer, which as you rightly point out, would be really daft ones to pick for yourself. It might also explain why Portman doesn't have one, since he's such a fundamentally unpleasant piece of shit, any moniker would inevitably be pointless.
honestly, this is one of my all time favorite films. as someone who has recently fallen in love with Doom 3, i absolutely adore this film. yes the film isnt absolutely perfect but goddamnit i absolutely love it. great special effects, great music, great action, creepy atmosphere, fun characters. whats not to love about this film?
"Isn't absolutely perfect" for the Doom movie is about the most hyperbolic understatement one could possibly contrive. Just an empty statement through and through.
I actually have a copy of the movie I got it from my local library and it has on the disc a demo of the latest game in the franchise at the time my favorite game in the franchise doom 3
I've seen far worse and less entertaining movies receive higher ratings and more success at the box office. I personally love this movie. It's a guilty pleasure mostly but still fun and entertaining. The movie itself would have been better in the hands of a capable director. It had some pretty good ideas which would have served better as its own movie and great special effects. The action scenes were pretty well done. A better director and having its own identity as opposed to being tacked onto a release of a popular game would have made a great movie.
I guess this movie was Doomed from the start. Leaving the audience in a bad mooD This pun was so bad that before I finished typing it the first time, RUclips crashed.
So I'm contemplating which DeusDaecon review to watch next just before this Doom review is ending. It's late so I don't REALLY want to watch any more horror but I hesitantly choose The Ring review in my head anyway. I go to lift my pointer finger (iPad) to press that thumbnail and what happens ? Yup, The Doom review rings and DeusDaecon answers the phone and the voice on the other end whispers "seven days". To which I smile and begin to share my experience.
I honestly think the movie would've gotten less flack if it wasn't a video game movie. It's a generic story but without the comparison it's a very serviceable one. I actually liked some of the characters and was even rooting for Sam/Duke as they had good chemistry together. The thing with the selecting only certain people to infect was also something I really liked, given how they had shown "irratic behaviour" in the people that would turn beforehand. Like the guy closing the door, Goats religously motivated cutting, Pinky's reaction to witnessing a horrible murder etc. Then there is also Destroyer with his over the top nick, yet he himself is shown an okay dude who can be a badass fighter who I was rooting for ... Those were neat little touches and I think despite all the BFG fetishising even Sarge was forshadowed okay. BTW I think he took his order with the "exterme prejudice" or what they called it as a licence to get the BFG because despite his normal behaviour, underneath he was a bit of a trigger happy meathead. Not saying it's the most epic writing but it flowed good and I really love this movie. Then again I never got into the old Doom games so it didn't offend my fan sensibilities :D
I guess in the future military there are no grooming standards lol. Good on you for the hooah/oorah accuracy. This Army Sergeant appreciates that. Love this channel
The only thing I can think of right now that throws me off with this movie is Goat. If these creatures can choose to infect those who are truly evil then how can Goat be infected? I mean Goat is similar to Reaper, both choosing to die rather than mutate into these creatures. Yeah Goat was infected with the tounge, but it doesn't makes sense as to why him, and not the guy who died on the toilet. Seems like their deaths and/or places would make better sense if they were switched, but that's just me. Whatever the reason as to why, it's still my favorite video game movie, and it's a fun review as well.
Looking back at it today, plus with how damn popular The Rock is now, it's actually kinda interesting and cool seeing Dwayne in a villian role for once. Even if it only really comes out in the last part
6:44 ( i talk back to reviews) but when you mentioned the recorded scream i said 'huh just like event horizon' the at 6:50 you mention it yourself. if that dude needed to be known by 'the destroyer' 'destroy ya/destroya' wouldve sound cooler imo.
code-names aren't decided by the person who has it usually, further more code names are usually given due to an event. An example is a British tank battalion had a tank that wen by tank 6. Tank six had an oddly large amount of "failures to fire" in a single engagement so everyone else in the battalion began to call it "malfunction 6"
"Malfunction 6" isn't an official call sign though, Tank 6 is the call sign, and regardless of how when or who gave/aquired the call sign, I still think its pretty ridiculous to have a "Destroyer" on a search on rescue team.
Unofficial substituting "Big Fucking Gun" for BFG goes way back before this movie to the earlier games themselves (and is one of the few moments I mildly appreciated back when this trife came out on video) buuut I'm sure many have brought that to your attention by now. :)
I do love the subtle foreshadowing when they are in the helicopter and Reaper and Sarge are talking, then when they are 60 seconds out the lights go out and the red one come on and Sarge looks demonic.
I love how this movie based on a video game about Space Marines finding a gateway to Hell tries desperately to be a bad "Alien" rip-off when the original plot of the game was vastly more interesting. If this film was going to try and rip off any space horror film it should have ripped off "Event Horizon". At least then it would have been closer to it's source material and not such an abysmal bore.
IAmTheUnison i find it ironic since the original Doom game was suppose to be an Alien video game but was changed at the last minute to demons since the deal didn't go through.
Yeah these guys would have been discharged a long time ago especially Portman and goat Portman because well he's peddling drugs and goat because he's self-harming
I know the film is shit and was rightly hammered by the critics, but it's one of those films I really like watching. A bit like Ghost of Mars in that aspect. Dumb fun.
I think you meant lewis and clarke, a correction i severely apologise for making, because i love the idea of lois lane and superman on the event horizon.
the funny thing about 29 palms is the fact that it is a dead end post that is considered to be the place marines get stationed when their career is about to die
I've always thought that the nanowall was a bit of a mini-portal, connecting walls that were pretty much far apart. But it's been a while since I've seen Doom so I may be wrong.
It's odd how, despite being a gross pervert, Portman is probably one of the least stupid characters in the movie. He recommends calling for reinforcements when things start to get bad, he points out how their only way home could be destroyed by Sarge's orders, and while this last one is done under less than smart circumstances, he actually tries to call for help when things go from bad to worse. Granted, his decision to do so while completely alone was very much a stupid one, but he at least was able to recognize that things were going to shit faster than his homicidal and psychotic superior officer.
Good comment. As brash as he is, he has a lot of good lines. Glad someone else noticed. Also that actors performance was more more than a memorable than the rest of the supporting cast
ziljin it could be that there simply isn't a mirror. The actor just appears in another room and we see him through a hole in the wall, like in one of the early adaptations of Jekyll and Hyde
Honestly, it's when Grimm becomes an overpowered badass and starts shooting stuff in first person that the movie finally becomes enjoyable. The whole point of the Doom franchise is that you're a badass marine with a shit ton of guns kicking the ever loving crap out of the demon horde. When the movie is trying to be like Doom, it actually succeeds. The problem is that it happens way too late in the movie and most of it is just a dull, generic action/horror flick. I absolutely love the last 20 minutes of Doom...the other 1 hour and 4 minutes can rot in hell...pun kinda sorta intended.
Why the hate for this movie? I don't get iiiiiit 😩 its the same thing with Resident Evil. I did not play doom, but i did play just about all REs. And as a fan of the resident evil games, I did not riot when the movies werent anything like them. So I would think others are like me to immediately disassociate the movie with the games when there are no connections and just watch the movie , only critiquing it on whether its good or not. Which Doom is. 🙂👍🏽
first of all the if someone is selling a movie on name recognition then whether it does justice to the name and the fans its trying to take money from, is inherently significant to talk about, and secondly yeah resident evil is nothing like the games but if you think thats the only problem with it, holy fucking shit i want to live under your rock.
+Diego Hernandez Hard to say cause I've not seen enough of it but it seems like a call back to the classic doom games of old, Which is a very good thing.
i actually thought this movie well ok now don't get me wrong as a fan of the games it got some aspects right but changing the story from a portal to hell to mutants is just well stupid i would rather watch a doom movie with demons then mutants but that's just my opinion
A nice common misconception: complicated genetic makeup = more advanced, better etc. Lifeform. It only shows a species's age as in how many mutations and iterations it has gone through so ex. Ferns of all things have a lot more chromosomes than primates.
25:09 you should have also mentioned that elite trained special forces soldiers or whatever don't resort to hand to hand combat just to fight man to man lmao, that scene was way too dramatic to take seriously
I actually really like this film but I’m willing to bet that’s because I didn’t really see it as DOOM, I saw it as inspired by DOOM, on top of that I happen to like the 3 main actors, Karl urban is always a win, I love the Rock in most films even if I don’t like the rest of the film (and any guy that’s willing to take the mic out of themselves as much as he does gets brownie points from me) then their is the female that I sadly don’t know the name of but is really really talented (or she really is a psychopath and just keeps getting hired to play that type of character and so dosnt need to act?) I think if you went into this film expecting DOOM that could be enough to spoil it for you but me personally I hear based on a video game and instantly grown as I know that it won’t be anything like the game it’s based on (MK1 been the only exception to that rule)
I think they over characterized the Marines tooooo much in this film, pretty much you only need Sarge, A Scientist, and Doomguy. Every other Marine/worker in the film is expendable in my opinion. Also how hard is it to just say the monsters are Demons from hell instead of doing this bioengineering plot? Demons coming outta an excavated hell portal is perfectly fine. It's DOOM, you don't need *That* much characterization, just a badass marine to watch Slaughter the hordes of hell and *Rip N Tear* his way till the Devil himself is shitting bricks.
I thought the movie was good but I'm guessing that's because i was like 10 when I saw it and I thought it was badass, I saw the movie again as I grew up and it's still cool but not as much, maybe my nostalgia or something tells me it's still good
Potatoes have 24 pairs chromosomes.... Chromosomes do not increase the power of an organism, it generally is a gauge of how long the genus has been around. For example Great White Sharks have 82. If a human has 47 Chromosomes they will have downs syndrome, not super powers.
The only thing I didn't like about this film was The Rock. I get the feeling that if he hadn't been in it then the film would have been so much better. He was a pointless character and the ending made his purpose in the flick even worse. Great score though, I have a soft spot for anything loosely related to PWEI.
Bro bashes the everloving shit out of most movies, usually comically so, misacknowledges that at some point, people started making movies poorly on purpose... I know you're aware, you intellectual!! Admire it!!
Good movie really.. but they should have made it canon. They had a good cast and everything, disappointing to see it become it's own stemming from the games. I don't think it would've been that hard to stick to the original shit.
true also I subbed to u like a few days ago and already loving your videos also I found a nice reference from a nice adbridged parody of DBZ thanks to your wishmaster videos so thanks Also would you mind doing a final destination 5 review
I'm glad you're enjoying the videos thanks for your support and yes i will be doing final destination 5, i just have a few patreon donator review requests to do first
the 5th movie hellraiser: inferno? a remake of what exactly, I'd love to know who said that cause they sound like the biggest moron who ever lived, not to mention the fact that hellraiser 5 was a generic horror movie script adapted into a hellraiser film, making that claim complete bollocks.
I’d would prefer to play it then watch it frankly, since making this video I’ve found that video adaptions are wholly unnecessary in my opinion. video games and movies/tv shows are different mediums they’re better off separate.
Deusdaecon Reviews well then it could be based on an electrical feild it emits, or how it sends you to mars like an arc of electricity between two metal orbs, but it would have been up to the movie to explain that
Honestly I think this movie is at least passable as a video game film, and pretty good for it's own kind of thing. I would have preferred that they actually opened the gates of hell on Mars instead of this mutate chromosome thing. But over all it's not really hurting anyone and it's stupidity isn't to bad. The atmosphere works pretty good, and I can't say no to Dwanye Johnson's fate in the movie (Do not like the guy). As for the Nanowall, it makes sense a bit. It's a wall, not a door. You can't really 'open' it.

The first person shooter section is actually the best part. Because the movie said to hell with it, let's have fun.
I think it worked better in the Nathan Fillion Uncharted short.
Since I don't think you mentioned it: "Pinkie" is another Doom reference: It's the name of one of the enemy types in the game series. Namely, the big pink monsters, who turn invisible in later levels.
code names aren't chosen, they are earned
Just want to toss out that names like "the Destroyer" are totally names marines, soldiers, etc would use. Also, you don't give yourself your nickname. Everyone else decides it for you.
I also thought that the names in the Doom film were all fan nods. Common handles, other characters/demons and people who worked on the games.
I was about to comment this. Not only do you not get to pick it, but often, you get them for reasons you aren't exactly thrilled about
@@Randerson2409 Right? I'm not even going to repeat what my nickname was. Just know it'd only be used for the comedic character in a war movie.
I have a soft spot for this film. It's dumb of course, but it's an inoffensive sort of dumb with occasional moments of wonderful black humor, as you outlined.
By the way, thank you for liking my dinky Lovecraft video. It was a pleasant surprise. :)
+leadvendor Not a problem it was a very well done video, and you addressed the racism thing that many people gloss over.
Did you think that the FPS-camera view worked better when it became the whole of Hardcore Henry?
In Hardcore Henry they also didn't entirely CG on an actors arms, they used go-pro's for the majority of the film. *(in the grenade launcher scene they did technically CG it)*
I also have a soft spot for this film.. tbh you could just remove the title and it'd be any other sci-fi esque in space shooter, but I give the movie the credit of trying for the most part. As well as the actors going through real mock military training in preparation.. despite the small mishap with the "hoo-rah" vs "Ooh-rah"
I wish they would have called it something else considering it has nothing to do with Doom other than the BFG.
That cast tho: Dwayne Johnson, Rosemund Pike, Karl Urban, other character actors I can’t think of
This is probably one of the better video game movies out there. I own it and have watched it many times. It's just an easy, fun movie.
But I'm not super familiar with the game, so I can watch this without comparing the two.
I love your reviews, you're so underrated. Seriously, You deserve atleast half a million subscribers.
Thank you I really appreciate that.
I fucking love the gundams you have in your background
This is one of those truly great, terrible movies I can't help but enjoy. I mean, Karl Urban squaring off with the Rock?
Funzies.
Also, "They're marines, Sam, not poets."
I always thought the implication there was that there monikers were picked for them by their comrades, like kids in school. It would go some way to explaining ones like The Kid and Destroyer, which as you rightly point out, would be really daft ones to pick for yourself.
It might also explain why Portman doesn't have one, since he's such a fundamentally unpleasant piece of shit, any moniker would inevitably be pointless.
He's Portman because he's a Man who belongs stuffed in a Port-o-potty.

This is still one of my guilty plesure movies. The mid 2000s action movies were all grey and gritty i miss seeing those with my dad
That doesn't sound like a pleasure you should feel guilty about, enjoy it, like what you like, nothing wrong with it.
Also John carmack himself said he liked the movie
Been watching your film reviews late at night as I'm having problems with sleeping so thanxs for entertaining me late at night !!
happy to be of service.
What is the song at the start I really like it.
Look At Me by Die! She Said.
Thanxs dude gonna look it up now thanxs

I mean, who WOULDN'T want to get their hands on the BFG? Did you see how he was eyeing it?? It was like Elsa with the Holy Grail in Last Crusade :D
I always took it as Arc, as in an arc between the two planets.
This movies problem is being called Doom. If it was just “Marines vs Monsters in Generic Science Place” it would be much better.
That's the problem with a lot of movies that are really 'adaptions in name only.' Godzilla (1998) and Starship Troopers come to mind.
I was so disappointed with starship troopers. Again it’s not a bad movie by itself but if you’ve read the book it just doesn’t compare.
Yeah these guys would have been discharged a long time ago especially Portman and goat Portman because well he's peddling drugs and goat because he's self-harming

The BFG was actually named the Big Freaking Gun in the newer series of the game
I've always thought that the nanowall was a bit of a mini-portal, connecting walls that were pretty much far apart. But it's been a while since I've seen Doom so I may be wrong.
No its literally just a wall that you can walk through it would be weird for them to have portal technology when the ark is so mysterious and unknown.
That's... so dumb. Like, layers upon layers of stupidity. I'm speechless.

FPS ending was epic
Pinky is also the name of some monsters in the game
Any chance of a review for the 2nd movie?
Don’t torture him with that ‘thing’.
A nice common misconception: complicated genetic makeup = more advanced, better etc. Lifeform. It only shows a species's age as in how many mutations and iterations it has gone through so ex. Ferns of all things have a lot more chromosomes than primates.

Better than that straight to dvd film

Does anyone know what Mac actually says to Pinky?
funny how he uses the chainsaw on the pinky demon, considering it's not very effective at all in the game (Doom 3)
Is this a Director's Cut of DOOM? The naked woman scene wasn't in the Theatrical Cut.
I actually really like this film but I’m willing to bet that’s because I didn’t really see it as DOOM, I saw it as inspired by DOOM, on top of that I happen to like the 3 main actors, Karl urban is always a win, I love the Rock in most films even if I don’t like the rest of the film (and any guy that’s willing to take the mic out of themselves as much as he does gets brownie points from me) then their is the female that I sadly don’t know the name of but is really really talented (or she really is a psychopath and just keeps getting hired to play that type of character and so dosnt need to act?)
I think if you went into this film expecting DOOM that could be enough to spoil it for you but me personally I hear based on a video game and instantly grown as I know that it won’t be anything like the game it’s based on (MK1 been the only exception to that rule)
You leave Richard Brake alone!! He rocks :)
I think they over characterized the Marines tooooo much in this film, pretty much you only need Sarge, A Scientist, and Doomguy. Every other Marine/worker in the film is expendable in my opinion.
Also how hard is it to just say the monsters are Demons from hell instead of doing this bioengineering plot? Demons coming outta an excavated hell portal is perfectly fine.
It's DOOM, you don't need *That* much characterization, just a badass marine to watch Slaughter the hordes of hell and *Rip N Tear* his way till the Devil himself is shitting bricks.
7:20 I don't see the ID software logo
If they were so smart how come they're dead?
bfg = Big fucking gun
At least it's not Annihilation
I thought the movie was good but I'm guessing that's because i was like 10 when I saw it and I thought it was badass, I saw the movie again as I grew up and it's still cool but not as much, maybe my nostalgia or something tells me it's still good
Sarge was corrupted by evil
I don't see the Id logo.
7:29 poor pitt bull
Thought the same thing, and I have a white Pit Bull so it feels sadder
Potatoes have 24 pairs chromosomes.... Chromosomes do not increase the power of an organism, it generally is a gauge of how long the genus has been around. For example Great White Sharks have 82. If a human has 47 Chromosomes they will have downs syndrome, not super powers.
Arc for the pseudoreligious parts of the movie
Big. Fucking. Gun.
The only thing I didn't like about this film was The Rock. I get the feeling that if he hadn't been in it then the film would have been so much better. He was a pointless character and the ending made his purpose in the flick even worse. Great score though, I have a soft spot for anything loosely related to PWEI.
I don’t see the Id logo reference.
well unless you play doom 3 and see the beating heart style ID logo, you’ll have to take my word for it.
Is it ok that I actually love this movie?
Yes its perfectly okay
Bro bashes the everloving shit out of most movies, usually comically so, misacknowledges that at some point, people started making movies poorly on purpose... I know you're aware, you intellectual!! Admire it!!
Good movie really.. but they should have made it canon. They had a good cast and everything, disappointing to see it become it's own stemming from the games. I don't think it would've been that hard to stick to the original shit.
This gives me SCP vibes
I was disappointed that the BFG was completely useless.
doom best video game movie adaptation cuz its a movie on its own
yeah its a movie in its own right, but its nothing like the game making the "adaptation" part irrelevant.
true also I subbed to u like a few days ago and already loving your videos also I found a nice reference from a nice adbridged parody of DBZ thanks to your wishmaster videos so thanks
Also would you mind doing a final destination 5 review
I'm glad you're enjoying the videos thanks for your support and yes i will be doing final destination 5, i just have a few patreon donator review requests to do first
okay awesome and on the site I watched the hellraiser stuff the 5th movie was stated as a remake xD
the 5th movie hellraiser: inferno? a remake of what exactly, I'd love to know who said that cause they sound like the biggest moron who ever lived, not to mention the fact that hellraiser 5 was a generic horror movie script adapted into a hellraiser film, making that claim complete bollocks.
It's the guy from games master with a fake yank accent Dexter fletcher man he's awful
For a good video game adaptation you want "house of the dead"
I’m gonna assume that’s a joke
I liked the short 1st person shooter segment - now if they would have done a full movie like that....@@deusdeaconReviews
I’d would prefer to play it then watch it frankly, since making this video I’ve found that video adaptions are wholly unnecessary in my opinion. video games and movies/tv shows are different mediums they’re better off separate.
@@deusdeaconReviews wing commander 3 the interactive movie in the game was better then the wing commander movie.
Is it Ark, or Arc?
I believe its arc with a c
Deusdaecon Reviews well then it could be based on an electrical feild it emits, or how it sends you to mars like an arc of electricity between two metal orbs, but it would have been up to the movie to explain that
I think it's A.R.C. Advanced Research Centre, or something like that.
@@arwanrhys5186 that does make sense in terms of the organization
Honestly I think this movie is at least passable as a video game film, and pretty good for it's own kind of thing. I would have preferred that they actually opened the gates of hell on Mars instead of this mutate chromosome thing. But over all it's not really hurting anyone and it's stupidity isn't to bad. The atmosphere works pretty good, and I can't say no to Dwanye Johnson's fate in the movie (Do not like the guy).
As for the Nanowall, it makes sense a bit. It's a wall, not a door. You can't really 'open' it.
An Aliens rip-off. Not entirely unfun-- with added R.Pike.
