The Mist - 1/2 / 10.
Terrible acting - terrible delivery of mediocre lines. Unrealistic plot themed loosely threaded on survival but ends up feeling much too character-oriented, and the characters were too weak.
The special effects could be called decent - they would have fared better 10 years ago. However, that is considering if Starship Troopers hadn't come out.
I was disgusted at the end of the movie. Frank Darabont, you're a terrible person. Dimension Films is also a terrible company for stepping in - Darabont was trying to sell this movie, and specifically this ending, for 10 long years. There's a reason nobody else wanted it, Dimension. It's because it personally went and broke every fucking bee's knee from here to Gibraltar.

Damn, I really wanted to see this too...I read the Stephen King story a long time ago and I loved it so I was excited for this...I guess I shouldn't be anymore.
