What´s the plot?
25 years later and the country they left behind is now their only chance of survival.
In ‘Doomsday’, a lethal virus spreads throughout a major country and kills hundreds of thousands. And to contain the virus, the authorities brutally quarantine the country.
25 years later, it’s back and so an elite group of specialists is urgently dispatched into the country (still quarantined) to retrieve a cure by whatever means necessary.
‘Doomsday’ stars an all star cast including Bob Hoskins and Malcolm McDowell as the bitter leader of the quarantined zone.
If you liked either ‘I am Legend’ or ’Resident Evil’, you’ll love ‘Doomsday’.

GREAT

I know that the reviews for this have been pretty mixed but I really liked it.
It's a great "Switch off and watcvh it film". It doesn't need thinking about and is full of action. Went with my boyfriend and we both enjoyed it.

A delight

I appreciate some of the negative reviews on the Odeon website for this movie and I can see where the comments are coming from. But I went to see the movie knowing almost nothing about it . And the film was a total delight.
There are weaker parts to it but the whole picture adds up to a great film.And a British one at that, I mean set in Britain with British actors. The film was an adventure movie in some repects and adventurous in its creation, and I think it delivers.

Doomed for Doomsday

Far too much gratuitous violence with little plot or suspense. There are too many films like this out there just now and this is one of the worst.
