Did the ending piss you off?


I actually got so angry. I get that "not every movie can have a happy ending bla bla bla" but that was just unbelievably unnecessary and dumb. The fact that it wasn't a happy ending isn't what annoyed me. What annoyed me was dumb decision making. That's just not what he would do in that situation. Just off everyone THAT quickly? It goes against human nature. And then the military rolls in and we're left thinking "YOU IDIOT OMFG!"

It would have pissed me off if most movies end like this. But they don't.

Something that isn't conveyed in film is supernatural dread. It's very possible the Mist had a psychological impact on humans that you can't perceive watching it on camera.

Totally agree! It was just stupid and predictable.

Moment it happened I knew that big “twist” was coming. Ruined an otherwise great film.
