DOA: Dead or Alive

Awfulness, pain, and discomfort all at once

Oh dear god please may I be stricken with blindness before seeing this one again. First I have to say the cast was good, this could have gone a unique way and created a cool plot with multiple story lines and just made it interesting... alas the Director and Producers must have said, it has to be exactly like the video game but will less plot, oh and throw in DOA Beach Vollyball for good measure.
I first saw this movie a year before it was released in to the USA... so it has been out for over a year, and then a few months back they decided to release it in the US. Ok so far off to a bad start. Well their next blond ambition must have been to think that it would go up nicely against Pirates of the Carribbean: At Worlds End. Yeah that was a brilliant move as well. To keep a long story short I've seen this movie in the theaters as well because one of my friends hadn't seen it and desperately wanted to... so we watched it, and of the 6 people in the theater that night exactly 0 had paid to see this craptacular movie.
The script was so awful that I can't see why anyone would honestly say yes to working on this movie, unless they were being paid an obscene amount of money. Secondly it has Eric Roberts in it... that alone should tell you that it will be terrible.
So let me tell you that if you want to be stupified as to why anyone would partake in such horribleness, as DOA: The movie please by all means watch it... laugh at the fact that the girls moan with every move they make... why?.... I don't know and even though I didn't pay for the movie I wanted my money back.... or at least the money from some sucker that did pay to see the movie and didn't ask for a refund.
Oh and if all of this wasn't enough, they decided to make DOA: The Movie: The Game.... this is just one giant inescapeable ball of suck that is just getting worse with every decision. How this movie was made without the help of Uwe Bol I have no idea.
