Synopsis: Olduvai Research Station is a remote scientific facility on Mars where something has gone terribly wrong. All experiments have ceased, and communication has failed. The few messages that do get through are less than comforting. It's Level 5 Quarantine, and the only souls allowed in or out are the Rapid Response Tactical Squad (RRTS) - hardened Marines armed to the teeth with enough firepower to neutralize any enemy - or so they think. The researchers at this Red Planet station have unwittingly opened a door, and all hell has broken loose. A legion of nightmarish creatures of unknown origin lurks in every corner and stalks the countless rooms and tunnels of the facility, killing what few people remain. A hellish zoo of demons, Imps, Barons and Hell Knights has taken over Olduvai. And they're not giving it back without a fight. Sealing off the portal to Earth, Sarge (Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson), Reaper (Karl Urban) and their mercenary team must use every weapon at their disposal - and some they find along the way - to carry out their orders: nothing gets out alive. Unfortunately, these things never go as planned.

My Review: Saw it first day first show and the goregasm & action rocked! Things move on very slowly during the first half of the movie, but the main juicy part begins after the interval... For all those who have played the game Doom, will be taken aback by the first person perspective action... it is just too good... highlights the whole movie... the way Reaper moves with his gun shooting anything & everything that comes in his way... and the best part of this is when he wrestles a bullish monster with a chainsaw! And yeah, Rock, he's a perfect action hero after Arnold for sure. But he's not the one who comes out alive! Coming to the actress, Rosamund Pike is like so indifferent and calm thoughout the movie... makes you wonder what's going on inside her head... but she's damn hot! All those who are fanatics of Rock or the game, I'd suggest its a must-see!
