this movie is now in my top 5 of all time

Rating: 9/10 (3 August 2012)

i really enjoyed this movie. just watched it for the second time since it was released. i can honestly say it is imo the best film adaption of a novella i have ever seen. the acting was just outstanding, and the horror, while tame by today's standards of goreporn. was genuine and suspenseful. i cant recommend this movie highly enough. everything just works. the ending and subplot of where the mist came from is even better then the original novella. a must watch for king fans. while the cgi does indeed not age well it is sparsely used and in fact to great effect in some instances. this is not an effects movie. it is a character movie and a what would you do kind of movie. i have seen a lot of crap made out of books to movies, and this is just above the cut. if your thinking of getting it in any form, do so. if you don't like it i will give you a dollar.
