The Mist
flat flat flat! - moviebuff
I was really looking forward to seeing this and was greatly disapointed. It is dragged out with a depressing ending that basically falls to the earth from a not so very high precipice. A shame because I like Thomas Jane but this was not his finest hour. Wait until it comes out on DVD and watch once.
