Movie Reviews of Doomsday (Unrated Widescreen Edition)
Movie Review: Neil Marshall + Rhona Mitra = my favorite movie this yr
Summary: 5 Stars
I have seen this movie about 26 times. Am I crazy, maybe I also saw Juno about 20 times.
Anyway,
I love female fronted action and science fiction movies. I love Sigourney Weaver's Ripley and watch all the Alien movies all the time.
Anyway I like Mila Jovovich ok and the other female heroines like Pitch Black's Radha Mitchel.
However, when I saw this movie Doomsday. Rhona Mitra totally blew me away. I mean she was tough, but also had such acting range. Like when fighting when she had the upper hand or had an idea for an offensive attack she would have a little glimpse in her eyes. Basically I could just watch her portrayal of Maj Eden Sinclair and just think she is the best action heroine suited for that movie and rivals Sigourney Weaver. While I feel Sigourney Weaver had great range in the Alien movies especially Aliens, Aliens 3, and Alien Resurrection. Maybe Rhona Mitra doesn't have quite that range but for me she made this movie awesome.
I mean I saw Rhona Mitra on the show the practice and didn't think much of her other than she was very pretty. But, this movie makes me really excited about seeing her in the new Underworld movie even though I am not into those. I feel she would be better than Kate Beckinsale for me I feel Kate is to stuck up.
Anyway the the movie Doomsday.
It is basically to me a good against evil movie. Not this grey the bad guys sometimes do good and the good guys sometimes do evil, but in this respect and old fashoined black and white drawn lines movie.
Now it is very violent. I mean cooking a person and eating them. In battle cutting of an arm and the head of an enemy. A rabbit is shot and explodes by a sentinal gun. A axe goes into the head of an enemy. An ultraviolent but cool car chase. A person being shot in the face with a shot gun at point blank range. A persons hand being cut off because it is attached to a brief case, they were already dead though. Cutting a guys throut. You get the point. But, I still feel it is good against evil so other than the rabbit there is a point to the violence.
The special effects, costumes, cinematography, and music were very good for I think 15mil dollars but may have been pounds they spent for the movie. Anyway the music is really good I did a review for the soundtrack. It is the only soundtrack I own.
Anyway I loved the movie as well as Neil Marshall's other movies like Dog Soldiers and another really voilent but good one the Descent.
I feel if you like action, scifi, good versus evil, and kind of like wierd indie alternative movies you may like this one I did.
