The movie is now finished and is pure garbage. It has nothing to do with the game anymore, they rewrote it entirely. It is not on mars. The monsters are caused by a virus, hell plays no part in the movie. and the Space Marines are a no show, it is S.W.A.T. that saves the day. It sounds like another battlefield earth to me, crap.
