The Mist es un film inspirado en una novela de Stephen King, si hay algo que me agrada en los pocos films que he visto basado en este autor es lo muy Lovecraft que pueden ser varias de sus tramas y este film bebe mucho de ese tono con horror dimensional que al menos en mi caso percibo.
Cuando vi el film para nada sab铆a de Lovecraft, vengo a saber de el en a帽os muy recientes al buscar videos sobre misterios en la Ant谩rtida y cuando tuve conocimiento de algunas de sus historia, record茅 este film as铆 como IT porque las criaturas me las imagino as铆 como las veo en estas pel铆culas.
Unas impresionan mas que otras pero hay una de ellas que aun hoy veo la escena y quedo maravillado ante su representaci贸n art铆stica, no soy fan de monstruos con tent谩culos pero el que veo en este film del cual hablare mas en zona de spoilers se impone totalmente porque es imaginaci贸n pura hecha realidad y bien llevada a escena porque se le da todo el protagonismo para que se imponga como si de un dios se tratara.
The Mist is a film inspired by a novel by Stephen King, if there is something I like in the few films I've seen based on this author is how very Lovecraft can be several of its plots and this film drinks a lot of that tone with dimensional horror that at least in my case I perceive.
When I saw the film I didn't know about Lovecraft at all, I came to know about him in very recent years when looking for videos about mysteries in Antarctica and when I got to know some of his stories, I remembered this film as well as IT because I imagine the creatures as I see them in these films.
Some impress more than others but there is one of them that even today I see the scene and I am amazed at its artistic representation, I am not a fan of monsters with tentacles but the one I see in this film which I will talk more about in spoiler zone is totally imposed because it is pure imagination made reality and well brought to the scene because it is given all the prominence to impose itself as if it were a god.
El film conquista solo con el nombre, ese elemento que no tiene raciocinio como La Niebla y de ella nace todo un terror que envuelve a los personajes, me agrada esto, el usar la naturaleza como algo de donde nace el terror, no es nuevo porque en s铆 nuestros antepasados tem铆an y adoraban a este tipo de fen贸menos que ahora muchos de ellos sabemos que son pero en situaciones de incertidumbre como la que se narra en el film, es donde nuestro cerebro vuelve a ser primitivo y tener miedo a la naturaleza.
Vi el film a帽os despu茅s de haberse estrenado, su propaganda capto mi atenci贸n por el hecho de que tiene varios actores los cuales salen en The Walking Dead, en especial por la actriz Laurie Holden la cual me parece muy atractiva y en este film luce espectacular, esto es un detalle que puede interesar y no pasara desapercibido si eres o fuiste fan de la serie TWD.
Hay un personaje, es el que mas me agrada porque la veo es muy real llamada Carmody interpretada por Marcia Gay Harden porque su forma de actuar es la que muchos tomar铆an si estuvieran ante una situaci贸n llena de incertidumbre como la presentada en el film.
The film conquers only with the name, that element that has no reasoning as The Mist and from it is born all a terror that surrounds the characters, I like this, using nature as something from where the terror is born, it is not new because our ancestors feared and worshiped this kind of phenomena that now many of them we know what they are but in situations of uncertainty as the one narrated in the film, is where our brain becomes primitive again and be afraid of nature.
I saw the film years after it was released, its propaganda caught my attention by the fact that it has several actors who appear in The Walking Dead, especially the actress Laurie Holden which I find very attractive and in this film looks spectacular, this is a detail that may interest and will not go unnoticed if you are or were a fan of the TWD series.
There is a character, is the one I like the most because I see her is very real called Carmody played by Marcia Gay Harden because her way of acting is the one that many would take if they were facing a situation full of uncertainty as the one presented in the film.
Es de analizar este personaje en quien ahondare mas en la zona de spoiler y se que si ven el film, ella llamara totalmente su atenci贸n para mal porque la van a detestar con todo su ser pero en mi caso me agrado, me da una perspectiva honesta de que suceder铆a si de verdad sucediera una situaci贸n ligeramente parecida al argumento presentado y que nuestra historia demuestra ha sucedido, sus soluciones son demenciales pero en el pasado de la humanidad esas soluciones fueron ejecutadas y refleja que la ignorancia lidera en situaciones de caos.
Tiene dos puntos a criticar donde un personaje por obra y gracia del guion sobrevive para generar un poco mas de drama en el protagonista y que la decisi贸n tomada por los personajes al final del film no la veo coherente con su actuar, si se genera mas drama, eso es indudable pero yo veo a los personajes, lo que han vivido y pienso fueran hecho todo menos eso.
The Mist es un film sobrenatural lleno de personajes en donde cada uno brilla a su manera, tiene su momento de relevancia en lo que se nos quiere contar, ese ente sobrenatural que agobia el cual es niebla se merece 8 chiquitos de 10 porque si que me veo envuelto por su misterio, las criaturas algunas me gustaron y otras no tanto pero algo es seguro muchachones, ese final es de portada apocal铆ptica.
It is to analyze this character who I will delve more in the spoiler area and I know that if you see the film, she will totally call your attention for bad because you will hate her with all your being but in my case I liked it, it gives me an honest perspective of what would happen if it really happened a situation slightly similar to the argument presented and that our history shows has happened, its solutions are insane but in the past of humanity those solutions were executed and reflects that ignorance leads in situations of chaos.
It has two points to criticize where a character by grace of the script survives to generate a little more drama in the protagonist and that the decision taken by the characters at the end of the film I do not see it consistent with their actions, if more drama is generated, that is undoubtedly but I see the characters, what they have lived and I think they would have done anything but that.
The Mist is a supernatural film full of characters where each one shines in its own way, it has its moment of relevance in what it wants to tell us, that supernatural entity that overwhelms which is fog deserves 8 out of 10 because if I get involved by its mystery, the creatures some I liked and others not so much but one thing is for sure guys, that ending is apocalyptic cover.
Inicia zona de spoiler para mencionar esa escena y personaje que mas me gustaron.
La escena que me deja estupefacto frente al televisor es la que ven como portada de esta rese帽a, ese momento en que la criatura gigante con tent谩culos aparece es aplastante, veo la escena y pienso es el fin de la humanidad, el Dios de la destrucci贸n ha hecho acto de aparici贸n en este Apocalipsis, esto es lo que pienso cuando veo ese poderoso momento del film.
Una nota para aquellos fans de Star Wars es que s铆, esta criatura es muy semejante a los caminantes imperiales, yo tambi茅n la vi as铆 y tal vez por eso tambi茅n me impacto mas porque es de mis favoritos.
Carmody me agrado, le da vida y maldad al film, si la odias a mas no poder es porque el personaje cumpli贸 totalmente su prop贸sito. Mencione es muy real porque el fanatismo religioso es as铆, ignorante totalmente y un evento as铆 f谩cilmente lo pueden asociar con un Apocalipsis, ellos piensan as铆, la vehemencia les ciega y en su af谩n por tener la raz贸n y que las escrituras se cumplir谩n, caer铆an en este tipo de actos absurdos como sacrificar personas, as铆 ha sucedido en la historia y si algo tiene por naturaleza el ser humano es el ser muy f谩cil de influenciar y ella es del tipo l铆der.
La primera critica que mencione anteriormente, la mujer interpretada por Melissa McBride que sobrevive al final porque el guion as铆 lo indica, en lo que veo argumentalmente esa mujer no dura ni un segundo viva luego de que sale del supermercado basado en las otras muertes que acaban de suceder.
La segunda critica es que los personajes al final deciden suicidarse, lo veo totalmente incoherente, ya haz luchado tanto, si es verdad que haz visto cosas horrorosas pero el modo de lucha, ese af谩n por vivir no puede disiparse tan f谩cilmente y menos ante la calma, no hay monstruos cerca para justificar el asesinar por misericordia para decirlo de alguna manera.
En lo que veo de verdad los personajes pienso sobreviven y si me saca un poco de film que tomen esa decisi贸n tan radical en un escenario tan tranquilo, si pasaran d铆as, semanas lo comprender铆a el perder la esperanza pero veo supervivientes que a pesar de ver monstruos siguieron adelante sin p谩nico para poder vivir.
Dedicado todos y cada uno de mis post y videos a mi perrita llamada princesa que la llam谩bamos chiquito que ya no est谩 con nosotros pero desde el cielo ver谩 que su existencia SI fue valiosa y lo m谩s hermoso que existir谩 en mi coraz贸n y alma.
Start spoiler zone to mention that scene and character that I liked the most.
The scene that leaves me stunned in front of the TV is the one you see as the cover of this review, that moment when the giant creature with tentacles appears is overwhelming, I see the scene and I think is the end of humanity, the God of destruction has made an appearance in this Apocalypse, this is what I think when I see that powerful moment of the film.
A note for those Star Wars fans is that yes, this creature is very similar to the imperial walkers, I also saw it that way and maybe that's why it also impacted me more because it is one of my favorites.
I liked Carmody, she gives life and evil to the film, if you hate her to no end it's because the character totally fulfilled its purpose. I mentioned it is very real because religious fanaticism is like that, totally ignorant and an event like this can easily be associated with an Apocalypse, they think like that, vehemence blinds them and in their eagerness to be right and that the scriptures will be fulfilled, they would fall into this type of absurd acts like sacrificing people, this has happened in history and if something has by nature the human being is to be very easy to influence and she is the leader type.
The first criticism that I mentioned before, the woman played by Melissa McBride who survives at the end because the script indicates so, as far as I can see from the plot that woman does not last a second alive after she leaves the supermarket based on the other deaths that just happened.
The second criticism is that the characters at the end decide to commit suicide, I see it totally incoherent, you have already fought so much, yes it is true that you have seen horrible things but the way of fighting, that eagerness to live can not dissipate so easily and less before the calm, there are no monsters nearby to justify the murder for mercy to say it somehow.
In what I really see the characters I think survive and if I get a little film that take such a radical decision in a scenario so quiet, if they spent days, weeks I would understand losing hope but I see survivors who despite seeing monsters went ahead without panic to live.
I dedicate each and every one of my posts and videos to my little dog named princess, we called her chiquito, she is no longer with us but from heaven she will see that her existence was valuable and the most beautiful thing that will exist in my heart and soul.
