In a stellar cast led by Thomas Jane with the outstanding Marcia Gay Hardin in one of her best, albeit horrible portrayals, others here bring people to life we all know and perhaps are in our own lives. As The Mist moves into town, these folks are trapped in a grocery store - a brilliant location for the setting of a couple days in a horror film - all kinds of personality comes to light and all kinds of ways to face down the demons, both inside and out of each person. As things grow worse our band of merry humans must decide how they'll deal with the death waiting outside and the growing panic within. NO SPOILERS here, the ending is pure King and if you've made it this far in the film, it'll leave you considering your own life and others and what you would do in ways that are thought provoking and fear inducing. But brilliant.
I am not the kind of fan of "horror" that likes the blood and gore kind of stuff. I'll watch it, but I much prefer the intelligence of thought provoking. I feel its grip can be far more intense and far deeper than "simply giving us blood and gore." That's not to say I won't watch that kind... and there is some solid gore here, don't worry. It's that I like the observations around thoughtful horror - it's far scarier and more real.
This is a great date night movie, rainy afternoon, or even that scare-you-to-death fun of horror. The Mist is pure King at his and it's finest.
It was a good movie until the end. It has one of the worst endings in the history of movie endings. If bad endings ruin a movie for you, this will make you feel like you wasted not only the last two hours of your life, but also the rest of your day as you anguish over the ending. And then you'll be dying to tell people how horrible the ending is, but you know you shouldn't, because either that will make them not watch the movie, or ruin the shock and horror that you want them to feel at the end because you hate them.
Four stars though because it's a cool movie and I don't want to do it dirty since the terrible ending was on purpose.
This movie achieves some of that...
The good: I cared about the characters and was with them in some of the more tense moments. It had obligatory jump moments and enough thrills that it was worth watching for the general fear about it. I'm also going to mention the "end" here as a positive, even though I have it in much detail in the bad below... how is that you may ask? Because while I do not like the ending at all, for reasons below, I do think it was shocking enough that people would talk about it for years to come after seeing it. In that regard, it's probably a success thing... read on to see why I ultimately don't like it.
The bad: the claustrophobia was almost completely absent. Perhaps it's the way the setting was filmed/framed? It just did not have this "closed in" feeling that the story did. (My memory of the story anyway) The store somehow felt bigger than the story made it feel.. I don't know, that may be nit-picky. The fear created in the story was also there, as mentioned in the good above, but it is largely overshadowed by the nihilistic, hopeless way they ended it. The story ended with an impossible hope, but it was still a thread of hope. It had questions that were never answered. In a bid to tie things up neatly, the ending (to me) just sucked the life out of all the stress (Fear and tension is only there when there is a hope...) and left this bitter taste that wrecked the heart of the characters that I cared about. It really reversed the hope those final characters were walking in. I hesitate to call it Godless, as it's not a Christian movie at all... but the way one of the characters (mis)represents God so much early on, demanding blood from them, the lack of any counter-point to that anti-Christ stand was obvious, but to end it the way they did (which was not how the story ended) pretty much validated this anti-God tone. The story was a more even-handed approach to how we need hope to keep going and how that hope is the opposite of what those zealots were walking in.
Overall, the movie is worth watching. Nothing I've said here should stop that. The ending is certainly controversial, as any google search will show you... some of you may love that shock. For this movie, I was not one of those that liked that smack to the face. King himself (I believe) loved the new ending, so there is that as well. Take it for what it's worth, it's still a decent thriller movie to see.
