I give it 4 for violence (they dodged good stuff with an 18A rating? WTF?) and 3.5 for plot/story.
SPOILERS BELOW, TO AN EXTENT. READ AT YOUR OWN RISK
We know there's no mention of Hell in the movie, except as the ramblings of a madman. The imps don't shoot fireballs. There's only one Pinky demon, and that one you can see coming from the first 10 minutes. In reality, the worst part was the overly-long FPS-style camera work when the acting and the tension was actually carrying the movie quite nicely. It's neat for the first 30 seconds or so when you're like "Cool! Just like Doom 3!" And then it gets boring for the remainder of the time.
Overall, not sure if it merits landing in the "I bought it" collection, but it's worth seeing at least once more at home.
