Having read the novella by Stephen King, I expected the usual ponderous, over digitalized, and invasive music that usually accompanies most horror... lms. What I saw though, was an incredible depiction of emotional class warfare coming out during a serious, supernatural situation of the highest magnitude. For me, this was a metaphor for the world and the armageddon that awaits all of us. The interrelationships of the characters was exemplary, and Marcia Gay Harden's Portrayal of a female Jim Jones was right on point. As am afficianado of the horror genre, I found this film to be many cuts above the majority of them. Full Review

Very good movie. Kept you on the edge of your seat as to what was going to happen next. The plot and acting was very well done.

the mist is how a horror should be made: mind over matter. the plot is very focused on how evil can trick innocence into doing unpredictable things... nd misjudging the bible. the ending was very shocking and is is full of terrifying monsters and enough gore and violence to keep you entertained. but how this movie was made is for people to know how evil wasn't the monsters, but us ourselves. to see the true mind of Stephen king, see this.

What a horror film SHOULD be - dark, tense, and punctuated by just enough gore to keep the viewer's flinch reflex intact.Full Review

What is surprising is how he (Darabont) rebounds from his weak, awkwardly compressed opening to produce one of the scariest King films since Stanley Kubrick's "The Shining."Full Review

The Onion (A.V. Club)
There's a grim modern parable to be read into the dangerous effects of the gospel-preaching local crazy lady Mrs. Carmody (brilliantly played by a hellfire Marcia Gay Harden) on a congregation of the fearful.Full Review

While it's riveting throughout, The Mist is a bit bloated.Full Review

More thought-provoking than frightening. Its stubbornly cynical attitude makes it worth watching, more than the monsters or the impenetrable mist (which looks spewed from a fog machine) engulfing a small town in Maine.Full Review
