The Mist (2017)

What A Let Down
13 April 2023
I was looking forward to watching this . I am a huge Stephen King fan. I have read the short story , which is great , and the movie is excellent .

But , this series I must say, is so bad . First of all the acting ...Who cast this ?, because as far as I can see , half of the actors in this simply cannot act . Or, maybe it is because of the awful script , which is my second gripe .

Next , the actual characters themselves . I can honestly say that I did not like one single character in this, especially Eve and her daughter Alex, what a bland , boring duo , expressionless and annoying , I just wanted the mist to swallow them !!!

The back stories of all the characters were dull , and uninteresting. I just felt , while watching this , that I would have been very happy for the whole lot of them to be killed off as quickly as possible .

I hope that Stephen King did not give this his seal of approval .

Oh , and one more thing , there were no monsters , the writers decided not to include them for some wierd reason , I mean, after all that is the whole point of The Mist .

A big let down , and I am not surprised at all that it was cancelled .
