Movie Critique

Just back from the cinemas, after watching The Mist. To be honest, it gave me the impression that it was a very 'strong and solid' show, but I was kind of disturbed by a few things. I'm not really going to be a spoiler by telling what the show is about. But I'm going to give all you people reading a head's up, that the show is full of gore, and although I think I've seen worse, this was quite bad. But you know what, that wasn't the thing that disturbed me most. It was the ending, it was just too cruel an ending. As much as I have been rather disturbed by it, I would genuinely recommend the movie, do check it out.

Oh another thought about the movie just came to me. Another reason why it is so good? This was the first time in a cinema whereby the audience had developed such a big attachment to the story line, whereby the reaction to the movie was so big so much so that they all clapped when something (which we were hoping would happen) happened. Interesting.

I noticed something at the cinema. Anyone noticed the kinds of movies that are being released lately? To name them, shows like I am Legend, Cloverfield and now The Mist. They all actually involve story lines and scripts which talk about either the end of the world, or some invasion of the world. Now I didn't watch Cloverfield, but I'm guessing the story line just from the posters and preview. Hmm, kind of sad and freaky isn't it.
