Storyline

A couple lives in Paris with their daughter, who suffers from an incurable disease forcing her to live in an hermetic glass bubble. One day, a mysterious fog begins to spread in the Parisian streets, killing everyone that gets caught in it. The parents find shelter on the roof above the mist, but the daughter is still in her bubble in the now fog-filled flat. Her parents must now cope with the lack of food, power and information, but also find a way to get her out, since the bubble won't hold eternally.

Goofs

When Mathieus' air hose is burnt through, they don't consider trying to fix it (considering that they are in a science lab) or even breathing from the hose. They also don't think to take the bottle so they have a spare. And, they don't consider if the suits in the lab (several of which are available) might fit them, particularly Anna, who is not much larger than Sarah.

User Reviews

So so

The movie begins with an exciting and unusual accident . Audiences expect something strange happens like monsters and gaint creatures and so on. But we see a logic vision entire the movie. the storyline is vague. Why that happens? the smoke. where is it from? the story focuse on family ties and how the want to save their lives. I expect more unusul things. Anyway, That is not a bad movie. a middle-range movie movie. 6 out of 10 is good for the movie.
