You can't destroy anyone except movies!

After watching "Doom", my first reaction was that I was fooled. No, it should be said that when I saw Ou's "rock" suddenly turned into a monster and turned into a big BOSS, I was finally completely disappointed with this movie.

During the promotion of the movie, the film company has been talking about Ou's big "Rock", so Ou began to be naive and imaginative. The big "Rock" is carrying a high-tech heavy weapon and is on the Mars base with incomparable majesty. The monsters were beaten and pissed, kneeling and begging for mercy. The tall and mighty image in the "Mars Menace" and "Evaporation of Honey Order" by the uncle (dead Waxin) who became the governor will finally be beaten by the "Doom" played by the big "Rock".

Who knows, I overlooked a detail, the bald image of the big "rock" doesn't look like the protagonist in the game at all. Therefore, when the movie progresses to the point where the "rock" suddenly turns into a monster, I sometimes feel helpless and fooled. In fact, as long as anyone who has played the game knows, the protagonist in the game is not a bald figure with a "rock" in it, but the hero of others has the standard soldier head that was popular in Vietnam when the old beauty fought, so in the movie , when all the comrades in arms were killed by monsters because of the need of the script, the very obscure one with the hero hairstyle in the game (Karl Urban) suddenly jumped out and announced to my bull B: boy, I'm not dead yet, because I'm the protagonist! What? Did you mean "rock"? Haha, I'm about to flatten him!

"Rock" is not a heroic protagonist, although it is very disappointing, but let's not be discouraged. Besides, "The Rock" has also acted as a villain, and the "Mummy 2", wherever you put it, is a classic commercial film. Let's just focus on watching this movie.

But this movie is also frustrating to watch. The beginning is okay, the monster appears, the doctor escapes, and the horror effect is sufficient. Well, something happened, wait for our hero to appear. So, "Rock" and his comrades appeared quickly, and immediately ran to the Mars base to perform a rescue mission. Moreover, they are very high-tech, but unlike other sci-fi films, they don't take a spaceship, and they also sleep in a dormant cabin to go to the Mars base. Da Hu Da” was sent to the Mars base. Although some comrades vomited after arriving at the destination, how could I not enjoy watching all this? Refreshing, it is rare to have such a neat sci-fi horror film in recent years.

However, from here on, the screenwriter and director of the film suddenly started to have trouble with me. I know that I secretly downloaded the film online to BT, which is very wrong for the development of the film industry. The movie was smashed. From here, the movie began to develop towards B-level sci-fi movies. "Rock" and his comrades, led by the hero's sister, a beautiful scientist, began to enter the area below the Mars base where the accident happened. Below, it is underground anyway, and the general horror experiments are in such places. As a result, the scene of repeating "Alien 2" began to appear, and the underground experimental base was not as big as "Alien 2", but it was very similar to "A House of Ghosts" a few years ago, as small , The low-end decoration facilities have a good fight. You said that a sci-fi movie made in 2005, the overall sci-fi props and facilities are not as delicate and detailed as "Alien 2" more than ten years ago. What is going on?

Of course, some people may jump out and say that the entire movie environment is set to conform to the atmosphere of the movie, and the two films are not the same film, so how can they be confused? Well, that makes sense. Then I'll keep watching.

"Rock" and his comrades held guns in the dark and gray experimental base for a while, and the unfortunate doctor appeared at the beginning of the film. Look at him tearing his ears hard. She had been bitten, so the beautiful scientist approached him without hesitation, dragged him, and continued the experimental investigation. She was not afraid that the unfortunate doctor would bite her a few times. By the way, the director must have told her that she was the only woman. The protagonist, and she won't die in the whole movie, that's why she can be so bold.

The later development was even more expected. The monster finally appeared to reveal the true face of Mount Lu. It looked like the pursuer in "Resident Evil", and it also spit out long insects. It is a bit like "Alien", it can be said to be a monster Deformed, pitiful, monster of monsters. Some unfortunate supporting characters were bitten, and later they started to turn into monsters, but it didn't work. Until the end, when Ou's "rock" was bitten and became the big BOSS in the movie, the movie was almost over.

There is also a scene in the movie that is similar to the first-person perspective in the game like "House of Death". The main purpose is to increase the game feel of the movie. The lens is very cool and exciting. It can be said that the whole The best part of the movie is here. Monsters keep appearing, and the protagonist keeps shooting wildly, which makes people want to play this game. But it's just as powerful as "House of the Dead," and the incongruity and inexplicability of embedding this part of the scene in the film is fully expressed.

Finally, the battle between "Rock" and the heroic protagonist can only be described as a sloppy ending. The battle before and after did not exceed 10 minutes, and there was nothing exciting, not even the destroyed props. Not even The Rock's The Scorpion King. I don't even have a place to scold me. It's a disappointment in disappointment, a failure in failure.


Halo~~~, is this the long-awaited $70 million annual game movie blockbuster? To be honest, it can't even compare to the already infamous "Resident Evil". It cost 70 million US dollars. It hired a few stars and made many advertisements. In the end, it could only be compared with "Resident Evil". B-level movies like "House of the Dead" and "Haunted House" are comparable. Its screenwriter and director should really buy a tofu to go home and smash their heads!
