That's funny, because Rosamund Pike's parts are easily the most watchable in Doom.

Several times she and Karl Urban nearly elevate it to something more interesting, before jump scares or weird camera cut-aways return it to being predicable sci-fi action horror.

I find that Doom is the exception that proves the rule - If Rosamund Pike is in something, it is probably at least watchable. (Sorry Doom movie fans. It didn't work for me.)
