Glad it was good! Bill and I have read it too and we're looking forward to seeing it! Thanks for the mini review!
Stealing your thread for a moment...
We were going to see the Mist this weekend but randomly ended up at the movies and it wasn't playing for another hour so we saw Bee Movie instead. I wasn't expecting a whole lot and had actually gotten sick of all the hype. But Bill really wanted to see it, and he loved it.
I would say it was OK.. far from great but not bad either. If you have children, then go it. It doesn't have as much "older humor" as Shrek and the like does, although there is some. But overall I think it will appeal to chilren much more, since they can understand it a little better.
(I won't bother with a summary since I am sure you've all seen the trailer a thousand times.)
There are a lot of big names voicing all the main characters, my favorite being John Goodman! And if you were a fan of Seinfeld you'll hear a few familar voices as well.
Of course, expect a lot of children if you go! There were tons of little ones when we went but once the movie started they were very well behaved, it kept their attention for the whole 90 mins.. which is usually a good sign!
