Doomsday

Doomsday

Now if you could perform a turn in the road using horizontal and vertical gears. Doomsday is written and directed by Neil Marshall, the chap who did Dog Soldiers and The Descent - and it's one of those cult movies that most people who've seen rave about. Personally I was just about hanging onto it until the final reel, when the wheels fell off and it turned into Mad Max in the style of Charlie's Angels - and not in a good way. If it had taken the mickey out of itself, this would've been perfectly acceptable, but it's a little too straight-faced to carry that off. In essence, Scotland has been closed because of a virus/zombie type thing, much like 28 Days Later, then it turns into Escape from New York before going Mad Maxy at the end. If you're feeling particularly tolerant then you might love it, but remember to expect the absurd.

I enjoyed this film: 3/5

I think the average moviegoer will enjoy it: 4/5

Testosterone Satisfaction Rating: 3/5

To enjoy this film you should: have a keen sense of tongue-in-cheekitude.

 

Doomsday was released in the UK on 9th May 2008.
