A Quiet Place Day One REVIEW

[@Evmoss4462]

I disagree. I think this movie was about a woman taking control of her own mortality. I thought having the main character of a survival movie be a terminal cancer patient was a really cool, unique idea. Sure, it was sad but not bleak.

[@dervishhh4475]

Agreed. And it was about her grace and strength of character staring down the barrel of death. She even gained a follower in Quinn's character who clearly took one look at her and decided she was his best chance at survival. She had nothing to lose and didn't squander the opportunity to make her death mean something.

[@tjk3430]

A unique idea indeed. It made me care about this universe again. Maybe more than the first 2.

[@LightningLassTCB]

Agreed ❤

[@gabewalker7528]

100% agree

[@benjihudson2768]

Thought it was a clever idea in an apocalypse movie where the world is faced with its mortality and impending doom, to be given the POV of someone who has already faced that reality for themselves

[@GoodEyeSniper74]

"Why couldn't she be the final girl?" Why did she have to be? Sam's motivation throughout the movie was to go home. To literally (and figuratively) get pizza. Her arc by the end saw her coming to terms with what was happening to her, find peace with it, and go out on her own terms, whilst also saving someone who had in turn helped her. It's a beautiful story, and it's sad that you would rather just have a trope.

[@jorgeamaya6407]

Exactly!!

[@wordsinahandle]

[@allthingsinnanets1234]

It’s so rare to see Lupita in a role in which she gets to have a happy ending. I’m so ready for Lupita to do some romantic comedies after watching this film.

Would be an interesting change, but would be interesting to see who she would play opposite since she's spoken about cxlorism so much.

Agreed. I really don't understand Grace saying he "didn't understand the assignment." What assignment? It's not like the other two movies were idiotic Steven Seagal popcorn movies. They were low-key thrillers with suspense, where the main focus was on character interactions.

[@MsFated]

I was not worried about the cat. A cat has 9 lives but the fact that the cat didn’t meow once , I said no way 😂

[@M24071]

cats are very adaptive to their environment and the kitty learns about the danger of meowing plus he used up about eight lives lol

[@sovannalong7585]

actually cats meow to only human. they don't communicate with meow with any other creature. Meow is for cat to command human to get what they want. 😂

[@devanplayspiano]

Though I agree the film is sad, I think it’s fitting. It feels like the end of the world for these characters, because it kind of is. I felt that it was real, more than overly sad.

[@gabewalker7528]

I agree it was sad but I was surprisingly touched by how Eric found peace with the cat and sam. I loved their relationship and how they helped each other. And I thought the ending was appropriate for how everything went down. I left the film feeling at peace for all the characters which is rare for the film like this

A quite place has always been about hope and living. These two characters find that in this film. There's lots of feels, but if you are in touch with your own then you'll find the humanity depicted in this prequel.

[@Marvelhero24]

I actually think this movie was REALLY well done. There are some fantastic shots (I'm still thinking of the puppet show scene) and to me the film had many positive messages within, specifically with how sometimes people who have already given up find a reason to keep going. Their friendship was beautiful and emotional, and also a reminder that we are all humans trying to survive and that we must look after one another.

[@CHarr1991]

Just saw the film today, and I really enjoyed the movie! It is bleak, but I consider that a theme of the entire series. The multiple commentaries on communication are very nuanced, and each installment is ambitious in their own respects. Like others have mentioned in the comments, I appreciated the arc of Lupita's character. She starts the film thinking everything is sh!t (poem) but then after SURVIVING one hell of a day, getting that pizza and finding the totem of her father, the character went out with a bang (jazz song). I am loving this series of films; thinking about what new innovative ways the creatives can twist this idea is fascinating. Loved that she helped try to save those kids and she took on the lawyer as a stray. BRAVO

Love you girl, but I’m glad I saw the movie before this review. This would have ruined the whole movie for me. I thought it was amazing. It still had many moments when you are on the edge of your seat and terrifying you. Maybe because I work in healthcare and seeing a person choose their own ending has its own peace and beauty. I cried seeing her take her journey because it was something that made her happy. All the memories and all the feels. I think of all my patients who never get a chance to make peace and wish they could see something or someone one more time. Again I love you! You bring so much joy to my week. ❤❤❤

i made the decision to see this movie when I saw those two at the oscars. just looking too cute! unfortunately this movie was pg-13 and its summer, so the kids were outside and they were THE WORST in the theaters so I wasn't able to get truly invested in the quiet place atmosphere the way I was supposed to. I love lupita, so any time shes in horror I'm there.

[@WastedPo]

I just came back from the movie. While I agree it's sad, I found it sad in a satisfying way. Not in a "what were they thinking?" way. I also kind of disagree that the movie is more of a bummer than what people expected. I mean, going into this movie everyone KNOWS for a fact that the world basically ends, and that the crisis will not get resolved. It's inherently baked into the premise. I also don't understand this stuff about how the writer/director "didn't understand the assignment." The previous two movies in this franchise had a heavy emphasis on character. They were basically family dramas where the creatures were used as a plot device to highlight the character moments. This movie largely does the same. Or was the "assignment" here supposed to be a dumb action movie, even though that's not what the franchise has been about thus far? Edit: Also, the audience scores on Rotten Tomatoes have become utterly meaningless to me. It could be an authentic reflection of people's good faith observations, or it could just be an indication that a film drew the ire (or support) of various 4-Chan groups for totally silly, arbitrary reasons. It's quite possible that the middling Rotten Tomatoes average came from people who were outraged that a black actress was headlining the movie and that Hollywood is "shoving diversity down our throats."

[@justinharber]
