So much going in this movie along with a fantastic audio score. We have a typical american town and there is a weird mist which has descended upon this town. And there are mysterious creatures in it. Group of citizens are caught in a departmental store and whoever ventures out in mist gets eaten.
Acting is decent by most of the people. Thomas Jane, Laura Holden and Toby jones steal the show with their amazing panic ridden acting.
And yes end is tragic and sad. It really takes toll on viewers and Thomas Jane outperforms himself in that last segment. Its rather sad to see the helplessness of the civilians and -Host of Seraphim- soundtrack chills you to the bone.
Only contradictory element here is that those mist creatures are powerful gigantic but do not crush that departmental store under their foot. Its kind off illogical but thats fine I guess.
Steven spielberg has produced a masterpiece with this movie and a must watch for suspense thrillers.
