The Mist Reviews
There is the obvious threat of what lies in the mist, but the story delves into several different sources of dread, such as fear itself, superstition, mistrust, and helplessness.
Wears its love of old-school monster movies on its sleeve, delivering a B-movie with a committed cast and frightening creatures.
An entertaining B-movie that leaves quite an impression thanks to its memorable ending. [Full review in Spanish]
Because Darabont's not shooting for Oscar gold this time around, he's able to ease up on the pedal of self-importance and deliver an old-fashioned "B"- style genre flick.
Nuanced and deeply layered, The Mist proves itself not only to be a well-crafted horror but an example of the true power of adaptations.
Overall, The Mist is a terrifying example of fantastical nightmares coming to life, and the human monsters that crisis can make of us. The acting is on point and the design is a spooky delight. The end will have you screaming.
This might be one of the most horrifying visions of an apocalyptic event I’ve seen in a movie, one that truly feels like it could happen, well, at least the human element. I feel pretty confident the otherworldly insect mist stuff won’t happen.
The Mist suggests that human nature represents an abysmal void filled with fear, and when tested, it transforms people into monstrosities of unimaginable horror.
A major box-office disappoint that continues to deserve fan love.
I thought really worked -- there's some great horror elements in The Mist.
This drastically altered adaptation of Stephen King's novella features vicious creatures, recycled characters, and a forfeiture of satisfaction for unpredictability.
...those who can stomach [The Mist] are likely to walk away with one of the most memorable monster movie experiences they have ever had.
A solidly entertaining, intelligent, suspenseful and gutsy journey.
All in all, it's a pretty hateful film whose nihilism resounds perhaps most sharply in the twist ending.
H.P. Lovecraft's Cthulhu mythos has long been one of King's guiding influences, and Frank Darabont's adaptation of The Mist honors that relationship while also working as a 21st-century political parable.
The last 30 minutes play like a dismissive ambush, leading to a final scene so utterly misguided that I wanted to hurl obscenities at the screen.
Frank Darabont presents a movie with one of the most pesimist and hopeless endings in cinema history. [Full review in Spanish]
The Mist is a creature feature in which the monsters are almost incidental, but the panic and fear-mongering that comes with the territory is what ultimately causes the most chaos.
The Mist has a lot of the elements to be one of the great horror films, but it never quite puts it all together. It's still very good, but a few missteps keep it from ever being more than that.
