The Mist: One of the Best movies of the decade, do you guys agree?

[danikerhino]

One of the best movies I've seen ever. The special effects weren't that good, the whole movie was basically at a convenient store, there are barely anyscenes of the monsters...these things initially kept me away from the movie. I thought "oh, just another corny flick". But the story is amazinglynovel-like, with a good amount of morals, emotions, and realism. It truly dissects the human physique in the face of desperation and vulnerability and showshow the people acted in different ways to the situation that was put upon them. If you haven't seen this movie, then pick it up immediately.

 

[extraordinary swag]

I did DIE laughing at the ending though

While I think it was one of the more slept on movies of the decade it MIGHT make my top 50.

Something is wrong with your brain if you think this is one of the best movies ever, or even one of the best of the decade. Its barely worth renting. It wouldbe nearly unwatchable if it wasn't for Thomas Jane. If you're curious, catch it on HBO or something, when there is nothing else on.

nah i agree. one of the top 75 movies in my opinion of the decade. wouldnt say its anywhere near my top 25 but def on it.

I dont think I hated a character as much as I did in this movie. The audience reaction to her fate was one of the best reactions out of an audience iveexperienced

 

[uptown roamer]

This movie was horrible, IMO...

[fac3 tak30v312]

The ending is what makes this movie ...... but the acting of that guy from Hung makes my ears bleed ..... while that dryness and emotional awkwardness worksfor Hung ...... It completely ruins this movie for me except for the saving grace of the ending

 

[fraij da 5 11]

You have got to be kidding me.


Mark Walhberg couldnt have even made this movie one that i would put in the "good" category.

 

[crossisom]

I liked it, but it wasn't one of the best.

I almost stood and applauded when that preachin !+$ woman got murked out.

 

[eghckk]

The ending ruined the movie for me. Possibly one of the worst endings in the history of movies.

you basically just used bulletnotes for the same sentence lol

and you make it sound mad bleh. You missed out a lot including how people in the store start taking sides. The character development is pretty great.

[djaward]
