Anticlimactic

To be honest, before watching this film, I read the introduction, but I am still looking forward to it.

At the beginning of the film, workers committed suicide by jumping off the building. This shot was quite classic. .

However, the plot clearly felt a little powerless and lacking focus. The director wanted to express a horrible atmosphere, but also wanted to express humanity's resistance and helplessness to nature. The scene looked a little pale and lacked new ideas.

When I watched it, I kept comparing it with similar movies, "The Mist", and found that it was still much worse.

Especially in the ending part, it doesn't feel like the handwriting of this director who has filmed the sixth sense. . .
