Good story, maybe. Bad execution, definitely.

Rating: 3/10 (19 March 2008)

Now, I've always liked horror movies and I very much like Stephen King's creation, I haven't read the Mist book, but the movie is a bad adaption of it for sure.
The story is a mix of Silent Hill, Half-Life and Lord of the Flies which doesn't have to be a bad thing, but the movie is just so predictable, yes even the beloved ending, I mean how didn't someone see that.
The choices characters make in the movie are mostly stupid and just make the watchers angry by looking at the arrogant roads characters take to solve problems and the time to figure out obvious. I'm sure it makes perfect sense in the book, but the screen writing isn't done well enough to make the watchers really believe.
The acting isn't all bad, again it's the screen writing, I mean who talks/thinks like that? Unlike I did, I suggest to people who haven't seen this movie to read the book instead.
Overall score: 3/10
