7/5/2023 0 Comments Where to watch a quiet place 2Excited to watch the sequel next.Ī Quiet Place Part II is a damn good sequel that does everything the first movie did but aims bigger. It’s highly suspenseful, peppered with powerhouse performances and an accessible setting that is very easy to empathize with. This was an innovative film in a genre that has run out of ideas for quite a while. He has the character arc of a young boy having to grow up and face his fears to become the man of the family. Noah plays the brother whose innocence and heart offer the film its vulnerability. Simmonds is the deaf rebellious daughter trying to figure out her place within her family and trying to come to terms with the loss of her youngest brother while blaming herself for it. Millicent Simmonds and Noah Jupe play with their children who are mostly there to raise the stakes, every chance they get. Even without the dialogue, they somehow make you care so much about their characters. Emily Blunt and John Krasinski display and evoke genuine emotions as they portray parents that would sacrifice anything for their children. The scarcity of dialogue helps bring out the absolute best in the cast, as they have to act through their faces and bodies. The performances in this movie are phenomenal. It’s a beautiful and emotional journey that’s filled with thought-provoking themes and questions about humanity. At its core, this is the powerful story of a family healing after the loss of a child. From a pure storytelling stance, the movie paces itself perfectly as it drops us into its nightmarish world right away and focuses on the people living in that world rather than the specifics of that world itself. The visual effects for the sound-eating monsters are also terrific and creepy. There are no cheap jump scares or bloody violence in this movie, just a steady nerve-racking level of anxiety that keeps building. The sound comes on and goes silent at different times which induces terrifying amounts of tension and suspense. The idea to create a horror movie where the main antagonist is sound was brilliant and refreshingly original. I barely made any sound while watching it because from the very first scene, this movie drew me in and did not let me go. A Quiet Place is probably one of the most atmospheric movies I’ve ever seen.
