The Mist
Not To Be Mist ! - Keith
The Mist is a very under-estimated movie. You can tell by the shoddy special effects and callabre of actors that this movie didn't get a hollywood budget it so dearly deserves. If it did, it could have been MUCH better. The story is very intelligent. I never saw half of the plot coming, it twisted and turned like the tenticles lurking in The Mist. This movie, I believe, could have been HUGE if the main character was played by an A-list actor, i.e Dennis Quad or Jodie Foster (Yes, change the lead from male to female) and had more money on advertising and special effects. For one, I hardly heard of it whilst in cinema's. However, back to the review, it's a great movie that deserves your €5.25 from Xtra-Vision, and certainly better then most of the end-of-the-world stuff were given today. And if that can't entice you...wait till you see how it ends!
