→‎Other responses: Doug Walker isn't notable enough of a critic to get an entire paragraph dedicated to his opinion of the film. Plus, the Nostalgia Critic is a comedy show, and often exaggerates criticisms and aspects of the film for comedic effect, which makes it not serious criticism to be cited.
Line 122:
 
In 2021, [[Rosamund Pike]] expressed embarrassment for not familiarizing herself with the source material, commenting, "I feel partly to blame in that respect because I think I failed just through ignorance and innocence to understand, to fully get a picture of what ''Doom'' meant to fans at that point. I wasn’t a gamer. I didn’t understand. If I knew what I knew now, I would have dived right into all of that and got fully immersed in it like I do now. And I just didn’t understand. I feel embarrassed, really."<ref>{{cite web|url=https://collider.com/rosamund-pike-interview-doom/|title=Rosamund Pike Discusses Lessons Learned from the Failure of 'Doom': "I Feel Embarrassed"|first=Perri|last=Nemiroff|work=Collider|date=November 16, 2021|access-date=November 18, 2021|url-status=live|archive-date=November 18, 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211118095454/https://collider.com/rosamund-pike-interview-doom/}}</ref>
 
On August 8, 2018, Internet critic and comedian [[Doug Walker (comedian)|Doug Walker]] posted a review of the film on the Channel Awesome YouTube channel for his show [[Nostalgia Critic]], heavily criticizing it. Some of his complaints are: the movie's consistent lack of fidelity to the source material, the cliché and unlikable characters, with the Marines either acting uncomfortably perverted, getting high, and cutting themselves for saying the name of Jesus in vain, the sister scientist of the main character being very disrespectful when being protected, and the unengaging plot. <ref name="Doom - Nostalgia Critic">{{cite web |last1=Walker |first1=Doug |title=Doom - Nostalgia Critic |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lcTAqi0T1PY |website=YouTube |publisher=Channel Awesome |access-date=18 January 2023}}</ref>
