Few films that, when finished, make you think about their dimensions and philosophies.These are films whose writer has excelled in highlighting the weaknesses of the human psyche, and discussed a hidden perspective of the human self that we are trying hard to disown or envelop it in the cloak of loose urbanization.
Now we are in front of a film rated on IMDB is 7.2 out of 10. But from my point of view, without exaggeration, I think it deserves the full mark and well deserved! Why? That's what we're going to talk about in this review.
The story of the movie
The film is based on a novel by the famous horror writer Stephen King, of the same name. It starts when the sky roars violently one night and throws a tree close to David Drayton's country house.
But while he is in the store, a strange fog of unknown creatures that eats humans is sweeping through the city. The hero and his son, along with dozens of other superfunders, are trapped in the shopping mall, trying to stay safe from the frequent invasion of these abominable creatures. But Acidom peace between them? Isidom the safety of those creatures? Or will their safety last for themselves ?! These are questions you will answer with the toughest answer that will settle in your bed after you finish this film.
Impression of the story
Space creatures and strenuous journey for survival is not it? What is special about this traditional plot with similar pillars in which all movies and novels? Okay, let me tell you what's special here. But before I have to warn you, there's a big burning here for the story.
I believe you to say, at first everything was normal, some calling their Lord for salvation, others guarding their children in silence, others committing suicide so that they do not suffer more. What attracted my attention was the dramatic rise in Mrs. Carmody. In psychology, there is a psychiatric syndrome called “God complex,” in which a person finds himself a god in everything he does and is the only one in his field. That, the lady has a slightly less intricate knot, that she is the new messenger of God in the earth, and bears his teachings to those who have lost the way of guidance to enlighten their cloudy path to the Supreme Garden of God. But have you stopped there? of course no!
Stephen King here indirectly explains how the tyrant was made, how to make him persist in conquering slaves, and how in the end he put an end to his tyranny. That, the lady saw that people were terrified, and the monsters outside were attacked with fixed deadlines, and accordingly she began to make the monsters still sleep - in their exact dates - coupled with the offering they offered them, just give that person to eat, It is spiritual and carries the word of the Lord. These figures at the beginning do not know that they will be role models and sanctuary, and that they will become very powerful and bass only later, hence the control of matters, and this was reflected in the look of horror that had its divisions when it called the army officer of Judah, who learned the secret of everything that happened and denies that he has a role In it, one of them killed him, and in turn took control of the situation and ordered to throw the monsters to eat and lick his sinful blood, all for the sake of atonement. Atonement for what? Of course, for the sins that you have been inspired to commit against the Lord, against yourself and against all humanity!
Characters:
The characters in general were too many, but it can be said that the writer and screenwriter focused on the character of the hero, and the character of the woman's spirituality. In addition to some of the few figures in the middle that play the role of balancing forces between this and that, the character of the hero tries to support all other characters until they all reach a solution to that tragedy, and on the other hand focuses on his poor son and his wife who does not know what happened to them, and the spiritual woman was in The word of God was first published peacefully, but when she came to power she began to assert her control.
Acting: The Mist
Thomas Jane played a difficult role in playing the character of the hero.He had to be a compassionate father and a firm man at the same time, a role that relies heavily on movement and the reincarnation of the man of a thousand solutions, and the genius of this actor is summed up in the scene of the end, which we will talk about. About in the tail of the review. Besides the humble representation of the other staff members of the main actors or personalities.
Music:
It is the true music that has come to grips with the end scene, and the philosophical significance of the film is firmly entrenched in the mind and heart of the scenes that many films cannot reach.
Finish: Special impression (warning spoilers)
Now five of them are sitting in the car, the fuel is completely out of them, and the fog surrounds them on every side. What are the moments and death comes in the most painful and cruel, so why not end our lives here and now? But we have only 4 shots. Do not worry I will take care of myself and kill all of them, and his son with them, and then sat to empty everything in his chest since the beginning of all this, and went out to fog creatures asking for salvation! But the most severe trauma comes when army tanks enter it and behind them vehicles carrying survivors of this massacre! Seconds separated his son's life from death! Everyone's life and death! He did not be patient and killed them all to live with guilt throughout his miserable life. The strength of this end is that the end of the thing does not have to be rosy, that everyone lives in peace and love and ends up doing well.
personal opinion
The Mist definitely deserves the full mark, and a masterpiece buried among thousands of current works. I strongly advise you as soon as possible, there is a lot waiting for you.
