A couple of days ago I wrote a mini-review about two game-based movies. In about three weeks another movie based on a game is released. This time the classic pc game "Doom".

According to the trailer the movie uses the first-person view a lot and by doing that it almost looks like the game is running on a TV instead of you watching a movie.
The plot is also very similar to the game one. A reseach base on Mars sends out a distress call and a group of heavily armed Space Marines is sent out to investigate.

Movies based on games are usually bad movies (An exception in my opion is the Resident Evil movies - see the blog entry from Sunday) and this movie will most likely get bad reviews from critics. One good thing though, it's R-Rated and that means that the scenes with violence (probably many when we talk about doom) won't be cut.

The movie is directed by Andrzej Bartkowiak (Species & Thirteen Days) and premieres in the US 10.21.05. You can find more Doom pictures, trailers and more info at the official homepage.

In Doom, Rosamund Pike plays Dr. Grimm (See Pictures above). She's been in movies like "Die Another Day" (As the swordfighting Miranda) and in Pride & Prejudice together with
Keira Knightley. Rosamund Pike is born in London 1979. Read more about her here.

As I will be traveling this weekend I end this weeks blogging with a Rosamund photoshoot. Enjoy and remember... Please click on my sponsors. Thanks.
