Anyone who went to this movie and didn't like it is just stupid. Why are you in the theater at all?? Did you see the commercial and expect Dances With Wolves? The majority of us knew we were about to see a crazy action movie and that's exactly what we got! A 10 all the way. See it Anyone who went to this movie and didn't like it is just stupid.

People who gave it a 0 should get their heads torn from their bodies with a jagged, dull, diseased sword and the firm grip of a hot, battle-hardened woman!…Expand
This is a highly underrated film. Brilliant storyline, fantastic actors and I only wish they'd do a sequel!

It's all about gore, violence, boobies, and a very cool, punk-rock sacrificial dance-number. If that's not your cup of tea than don't bother. If it is, get a bucket of popcorn, leave your criticism for the real world, and have a blast!
While undeniably stupid, Doomsday is actually kind of fun, if you're willing to look at it that way. The film is hardly meant to be taken seriously, anyway. Lose yourself in its absurdities and just enjoy its half-decent action sequences.

This was an exciting movie. However, it lacked inspiration, good acting, and depth. I enjoyed it but I would never see it again.

It started off so promisingly. It had the potential to be absolutely fantastic - the premise was brilliant. But then the moment they arrived in Glasgow it turned into a shambolic display of idiocy, excess, and one of the worst Mad Max rip-offs in history. Where's the bitterness? The It started off so promisingly. It had the potential to be absolutely fantastic - the premise was brilliant. But then the moment they arrived in Glasgow it turned into a shambolic display of idiocy, excess, and one of the worst Mad Max rip-offs in history. Where's the bitterness? The social and political issues that should have been there but weren't? I'll tell you something, it's blindingly obvious that Neil Marshall is English. And hasn't the vaguest idea of the resentment and anger that exists north of the border even WITHOUT a viral apocalypse. Is it possible for an entire society to be out-of-character?…Expand
In three words; Staid, Pedestrian and Mawkish. This weekend was the first opportunity I've had to see my 11-year old son in three months.

This weekend was the first opportunity I've had to see my 11-year old son in three months. This film seemed as though it could deliver but failed miserably. This is an hour and a half that I will not get back with my son. Aggressive, dull and monotonous load of junk. Whoever bothered to pump money into this rubbish must have been thrown to the ground during infancy. DO NOT WATCH THIS!!!!!…Expand
