Description
A team of space marines known as the Rapid Response Tactical Squad, led by Sarge, is sent to a science facility on Mars after somebody reports a security breach. There, they learn that the alert came after a test subject, a mass murderer purposefully injected with alien DNA, broke free and began killing people. Dr. Grimm, who is related to team member Reaper, informs them all that the chromosome can mutate humans into monsters -- and is highly infectious.

Key opinion
The consensus on the 2005 Doom film is that it functions as a competent, high-energy action movie but fails as a faithful adaptation of the source material. While viewers appreciate the cast and the unique first-person sequence, many are alienated by the replacement of the game's iconic hellish, supernatural lore with a generic sci-fi virus plot.
| Adaptation | The film succeeds as a standard, high-octane action experience but is widely criticized for its lack of fidelity to the Doom video game lore. | |
| Acting | Dwayne Johnson and Karl Urban provide charismatic, professional performances that effectively anchor the film's squad-based dynamics. | |
| Cinematography | The brief, innovative first-person perspective sequence is a standout technical achievement that captures the spirit of the game. | |
| Screenplay | The screenplay is viewed as a generic and contrived 'zombie-mutant' story that sacrifices the franchise's signature demonic mythology for uninspired science fiction tropes. | |
| Pacing | The film's pacing is described by some as tight and effective for an action piece, while others find the narrative development linear and increasingly unengaging. |
