This is what I thought of it:

it was a good movie, but without the elements of the game, it didn't seem like doom. the plot ended up a lot like Resident Evil, which isn't supposed to be a red hot poker in the eye, but I'm just saying we've seen it all before. as said, there haven't been enough movies that has that plot.

However, the reason for not having the hellish theme is valid enough. It's a risky world out there, you make one wrong move and you're gonna get sued. Too many lawyers in this world. you may think that people aren't going to be offended, but it only takes one doofus to crash the party.

But many good things could have come of keeping Hell in the picture. for one, it would have been less cliche and may have added enough excitement to break the Video Game to Movie "curse" if you want to call it that. there would have also been more opportunities for the monsters...Revenant/Cacodemon/Lost Soul/Cyberdemon anyone? as well as the monsters flinging exploding balls of ectoplasm. who can't like that.

Although it was a generally good movie, it just didn't live up to the name of Doom.
