NINE CRITICS FROM STARPICS CHOOSE "THE MIST"

How joyful I was to read from Starpics magazine No. 742 (first January 2009) that nine film critics choose THE MIST (2007, Frank Darabont, A+) as one of their most favorite films of 2008!!!!! There’s also another critic called Chatchai in Starpics, who wrote that he is not very impressed by THE MIST, but THE MIST left something in his mind and he couldn’t help pondering about it for many days.

These female twin critics/filmmakers also choose HORTON HEARS A WHO as one of their most favorite films, and made an interesting observation that the men in three films (HITMAN, MAX PAYNE, QUANTUM OF SOLACE) deny (or are not ready) to have sex with
Olga Kurylenko.

It's alright that you cut THE MIST off, because your list in Starpics is still great and very different from other critics. Your list helps make the overall Starpics lists more interesting, by including such film as EAT, FOR THIS IS MY BODY. :-)
