Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
Ezmae Chang This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
Brenda The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
Cissy Évelyne It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
mohammadjh92 I am a bit confused, there were alot of contraversial things happened, a group of humans locked up in the store surrounded by mist that was full of supranatural creatures, death was waiting the ones who go out.How on earth they chose to go out? They have good supply in the store, if human get in such situation its logical to stay until get rescued or ran out of supply, then its logical to go out, they went out risking everything, going blindly to nowhereThe second thing, they noticed that the unstable religious lady was starting to affect others by her ideas, why they let her do that?! They could've threatened her to throw her in the mist if she keeps doing that.Wha about the end! They suffered all the way for the sake of survival then just by running out of the gas its over! Make no senseWhat really make things understandsble is that all the weird choices represent the wrong choices that people may take when they face danger, the people in this movie made the bad choices and the end represents the awful result of thier decisions.
MartinHafer There are a few important warnings I have about this film. It's incredibly violent and at times pretty gross...so exercise caution before watching it. Additionally, the character Mrs. Carmody (Marcia Gay Harden) will likely offend many religious people. The story is set in a New England town. A weird mist descends on the village and a group of people are trapped inside a grocery store. When a teen tries running from the store to get help, he's torn apart by a multi-tentacled monster....but only a few people see this happen. A Some of the rest of them don't believe the story about the tentacle monster in the mist and make a run for it...and disappear. Soon, regardless of whether the rest of them believe or not, they believe SOMETHING god-awful has occurred....and gigantic evil bugs begin attacking. And, it only gets worse...thanks to human nature which takes an awful situation and makes it so much worse....including a weirdo religious nut who VERY quickly (too quickly) develops a cult-like following. What's next? It only gets much worser!I like the angle about human nature tearing the group of people apart...this is the best aspect of the movie in my opinion. However, a few of the characters (particularly the amazingly unsubtle Mrs. Carmody) are ridiculous and over-the-top. Subtle, it sure isn't! Additionally, after a while I simply got tired of seeing the violence and ugliness...especially since it goes on for more than two hours. I must admit, this is NOT the sort of picture I normally watch....and it's very likely others might enjoy (?) the film more than I did. Thoroughly unpleasant, albeit a bit thought-provoking when it comes to folks reactions to the menaces.
cdub-94048 I honestly don't know why this movie has good ratings. This movie is filled with poorly written characters, bad acting, and moments that will make you literally laugh out loud because of the ridiculousness.SPOILERS BELOWFirst, Drayton as a character is beyond illogical. He constantly and repeatedly abandons his only child in order to play the hero. He willingly gives his child over to absolute and complete strangers. Towards the end we get a half hearted "sorry" from him but they idea that a father would abandon their child constantly when in a disaster scenario is ridiculous unless Drayton is a sociopathic character. He also never seems to care at all about his wife who is all alone. He makes a break for her at the end but that's the first we see him care about her.There is little to no support for the reactions of the characters. They all decide that the mist is evil and shouldn't be entered well before anything bad happens to prove that they shouldn't enter. Basically a bunch of shoppers just freak out over some fog. They happen to be correct but until multiple bodies pilled up, any normal human would not react how they did.Most of the characters break out in rash and illogicao anger to manufacture drama. Maybe the book is good but don't waste your time with this film. Incredibly poorly written and a laughable "horror" movie
Galaxian The movie is very good up until the end. The ending of the movie is so idiotic and illogical that destroys whatever you watched up untill that point. It saddens me to give such a low score to such a good movie.
