Even the popcorn looked bored during The Mist.

Counted the jumpscares in The Mist. Lost count. Lost interest. Refunded the popcorn emotionally.

If exposition were a contact sport, The Mist would be banned for life.

The Mist should come with a complimentary pillow for when the third-act CGI soup inevitably kicks in.

[Spoilers] Can we discuss that absolutely baffling ending in The Mist?

Honestly, The Mist would be a tight 95-minute movie. Instead we got a bloated runtime padded with B-roll and lingering shots that add nothing.

The cinematography in The Mist is doing all the heavy lifting and it shows

Director clearly thought The Mist was deeper than it is. There's a difference between ambiguous and unfinished, and this leans hard into the second.

[Serious Discussion] Is anyone else completely checked out by the pacing in The Mist?

Everyone praising the The Mist performances must have watched a different cut. The lead is sleepwalking through this and the supporting cast can't save it.
