Plot:
After a brutal thunderstorm pounds a small town, the residents discover a malevolent mist hangs over their homes, killing anyone who remains outside. Trapped in a grocery store, a band of survivors mu...( read more

I was disappointed when the slimy creatures showed up. It would have been a lot scarier if it had just remained this unknown "something" in the mist...
Here's my take - I thought it was good BUT I have issues with the ending. I think the idea was good, I like the idea of it. The end was good but I didn't like it. Does that make sense? If not, then it will when you see it. And you should see it.
This movie was cool, but really goddamn annoying. They totally overdid the whole George A. Romero people-not-getting-along shit. Other than that constant annoying bickering crap, it was ok. Oh yeah, the ending is the stupidest ending I have ever seen. All-in-all this movie could have been better in my opinion.
Frank Darabont adaptation of another Stephen King book The Mist doesn't even come close to either The Green Mile or The Shawshank Redemption. The plot is overused and some of the explanations given for the events taking place are absolutely absurd and to top all that it has one of the most depressive ending of all times.
loved that ,as ever in STEPHEN KING, the scary thing wasn't 'the other' but how man reacts to it. less would have been more.

I do have to say that I was not a huge fan of this movie. It was alright, but there were things that could have been redone. The book is a lot better and I prefer that ending. This ending did nothing for me. As far as the "crazy lady" that was a huge idea of the story, she is meant to be hated, that's the point. I think if Stephen King had more of a hand in the making of this movie it would be better.
To me this is a typical Stephen King movie/book when the concept is basically a simple one and then it is hammered over and over again. These instant-characters who basically come out of a cartoon. I don't care about the special effects so that is not my complaint.
The characters go to the next door drugstore but can't get to the car that is visible from the store window? "Hey, who owns the 2004 Scion"??
The "heroes" go through what they do, only to allow themselves to be shot because they run out of gas? Then the tragic emergence of the Marines 5 minutes after the guy kills his son? C'mon. This seems like a f-you from Stephen King seeing what people will swallow.
Oh. I forgot to say, I hated this film.
It's a very well thought story about where desperation may lead you in times of criciss,I was shocked how quicklly people turned one against the other and how they were listening to all that bullshit from that fake prophet,seeing that pour souldier getting stabbed to death kinda remined me of Jesus on he's last road on this earth.And that end....left me speachless I think most of us whould have done the same.This movie wasn't made to be extremly scarry or to be a huge hit in the box office,but was made to show the hidden dark "otherside" in our human mentality.
Did anyone besides me get the prophetic references (not in what the Bible lady said, but in the events of the movie themselves)? It parallels a lot of what it says in the Book of Revelation in the Bible.
p.s. I agree with what barbadosx said, also.
To everyone who goes on about the monsters weren't that scary or whatever - the monsters weren't supposed to be the scary part! What humanity is capable of is supposed to be what chills you, and this movie - delivers! And brilliantly, too.
I loved the scary parts of this movie that would be the only reason i'd tell people to watch it but I hate the ending that tops my list of awful endings. Also the characters are terrible most of them are real stupid I think there just supposed to be crazy but no. I thought even the main charcter Thomas jane plays was bad. He leaves his kid alone most of the film and in the end you all know what he does... I'd like to say so much more but i'll end up typing forever...
This is the kind of movies that should be in the MCT test cause one's appreciation or dislikes, shows how much they really understand movies.
Whoever says this is crap doesnt understand movies at all. Its not a great film, but it is as good as it could be.
Don't bother renting/watching this movie. Read the book. If you insist upon watching the movie, stop when the start to drive away cause the ending really ruins this movie!
can I give this a 0 rating when I see it on tv for free? It's nothing more then a rip off of the fog and there was nothing scary about that so why would I want to see this piece of crap just because Seven King wrote it?
BOOOOOOOOOOOO Bad Taste King.
