Another Garbage Film (may contain spoilers)

Rating: 1/10 (28 November 2007)

This is just one more in a long list of bad movies made in the past 10 years. Who noticed the writers were on strike when they've been on strike for the past 10 years?
This movie had all the reflections of a psychopathic society. The overly religious woman was exactly like the religious idiot in Silent Hill and tons of other movies with one dimensional characters.
Actually every character in this movie besides the little short guy with the gun was one dimensional and worn out. I felt he had a little more to him because he came across as sincere, made a real effort to live, and had a skill that was unexpected. I imagine that most of the people who like this movie are young people who didn't grow up during times of great movies.
And the end? Talk about no ability to problem solve. My thoughts are "why are all the characters in movies, cavemen these days?" I mean, western culture is always pumping up the "superiority of man" and yet western art reflects a species who barely try to survive tragedy and usually don't. I wonder how we ever made it this far being as weak as people are in films these day. But more importantly as weak as writers imagine people to be.
I mean really... can't figure out a solution? ... kill yourself. Can't make sense of the situation? ... kill other people. Scared to die? .... Get delusional.
What? Who raised these people? Oh I forgot, it's just a movie, but wait... someone wrote it.
I'm also sick of not being able to watch a thriller or horror movie anymore without religion being thrown in. It is starting to feel like an brainwashing attempt. I knew this movie was over as soon as the woman started spouting a bunch of religious messages and people were actually listening to her and letting her continue.
I thought about commenting on the things in the "mist" but they were just too stupid for me to waste time on. Seems like they were really only there anyway, to lure you into a religious brainwashing session.
I found myself desperately wanting to watch a movie, skipping past the religious monologues to get to the "meat" of what was really happening and wanting for those people to make a real effort to survive.... Never happened.
