A Quiet Place: Day One - Angry Movie Review

[@midnighthymn]

It was a good movie but I feel like it threw us into the “people trying to survive on their own” phase too quickly. The whole point of “Day One” should have been seeing humanity grapple with and try to understand what the heck these new creatures are, but the characters’ complete lack of curiosity regarding the aliens made it hard to feel that way.

[@MartinKusimo]

Well said. We didn't even see a single character who was amazed/ obsessed with the creatures or trying to figure them out (even if it cost them their life). This movie is set in New York, USA, and I don't think I recall a single person shooting at the aliens in order for them to learn that the aliens are practically bulletproof. I could go on and on...

[@jase276]

At this point, Cloverfield is unironically a better "what if" Day One than this film.

[@josiahsuarez5415]

It's pretty obvious they're blind when the nurse is in front of one and it doesn't attack him as long as he's quiet, when you're being hunted by anything it makes complete sense to logically just stay quiet. Doesn't mean they figured it out, it's just a reasonable thing to do.

[@takuid]

the bait and switch of "day one" lmao

[@BoglinZilla]

Half the scenes do this in the entire movie. No explanation at all for where all the people went that were in the theater. They're just gone suddenly. And after the nurse guy dies it just immediately cuts to another scene instead of showing how Sam got away from that situation... as a matter of fact there's multiple scenes where the monsters are right next to them and then they just disappear into thin air once the main characters are quiet for a couple seconds.

[@BoglinZilla]

I don’t understand the reason for this movie. They showed the initial invasion at the beginning of the second. When I called that out online for the trailer,someone tried explaining that this was going to be the whole movie this time. But , from what I’m hearing, they glaze over the invasion again this time. So wtf am I doing here? Why do I want to see this movie with these different characters?

[@Bakeman3000]

I feel the same way... if they just show a bit of the invasion, no finding out why they come or how the humans figure out to be quiet... then what's the point?!

[@Bakeman3000]

Granted, maybe humans never find out why the aliens come. So it's just a mystery.. but just feel like we need something different than just to be quiet or you die for a 3rd movie.

Watch and judge for yourself. I had never seen any QP movies and this one was pretty damn good. Sure a little silly tension building but I think you’d have to with how goofy the aliens look. But manages to keep it straightforward. Plus it’s a short movie. Made me interested in the first two movies

[@GCballer307]

Honestly the more I think about this movie the more disappointing it is. No further explanation of the aliens. No taking advantage of how insane the initial invasion would be in a setting like new york. Way too unrealistic reactions to a situation like this. Emotional manipulation via most well behaved cat. No real stakes because our protagonist is on her deathbed anyway. This was a cash grab making no actual impact on this universe imo.

[@Stevo0929]

110%

[@the_jones528]

If they explained the aliens then the other movies would have to have some piece of that in them. Also, what's to know about the aliens that is _that_ game changing? Their Objective? I think they just want to take over the planet, and they have breeding grounds. Idk what else there is to possibly know that is as cut and dry as their objective.

[@asif9t9]

I agree this was really bad for "day one". They fast tracked the day one when she passed out. So we didn't get to see how the people transitioned from first contact to suddenly everyone knows the rules. When she woke and they were in the church and there's so many people. That would be something you could organize months in. Not on day one lol. Any one person making a noise and then everyone gets killed. Btw the monsters knew to not jump into the water. Like they had mapped out into their brains the edge of a dock. Sure. But no explanation.

[@SquilliamSquarner]

Maybe try to put yourself in the shoes of the characters? I think this movie was extremely well done. It shows a lot more about the death angels than in the previous movies. Honestly it’s like you went into the movie with so many expectations and because you didn’t get what you wanted the movie is bad… Imagine you’re a regular New Yorker going about your life and then this happens, something so incredibly traumatic and unthinkable. Literal god mod aliens crash land and start mowing people down in droves. The only way to barely make it is to be completely quiet. Imagine yourself in that situation. What would you do? The sheer trauma alone would more than definitely stun you, and you couldn’t scream if you wanted to. There’s a scene after the massive attack on all the people trying to get to the evacuation point, where Lupita and the British dude were walking in the rain and they see a lonesome girl walking quietly with her hands wrapped around her mouth, muffling the sound of her intense grief after witnessing disgusting atrocities on people by something she doesn’t understand. She’s locked in a state of total shock. Shit was riveting dude.

[@asif9t9]

@@SquilliamSquarner they needed to show the part where people realize they need to be quiet. Not the military saying it from above (when did they find out?) or her waking up to a stranger with his hands on her mouth saying shhh.

[@devonmungin68]

The movie was Dumpster Juice !!! The Cat should get a Oscar 🗑️

[@cardinalrule6810]

I think this film was definitely a wasted opportunity to explore the beginning of the invasion. Id imagine it would take quite some time for people to figure out that they needed to stay quiet in order to survive, and this could’ve resulted in some pretty terrifying sequences as most peoples' initial reactions would’ve been to panic, scream, run, and make noise. Imagine a scene in Madison Square Garden at a concert or sporting event in which the aliens entered the venue. You think people would be quiet as they rushed for the exits? And even if someone did somehow figure out that the aliens couldn't see and hunted through sound, how would they reliably and efficiently communicate this to a large group of scared, panicking, confused, boneheaded, and stubborn New Yorkers and/or Tourists who didn't all speak the same language? I thought depicting this mass panic and inevitable confusion was the reason they chose to set the film in a bustling city like NY, which is infamous for being constantly noisy. But Sam gets knocked out literally at the beginning of the invasion and wakes up in a shelter with everyone already knowing to be quiet. This to me seemed like a missed opportunity to explore what the most intriguing part of the Day One premise was in my opinion - the initial mass panic and inevitable learning curve. How did they learn what to do and organize so quickly? Sam couldn't have been knocked out for more than a day since the title implies that the film takes place in a 24 hour period. So the film deliberately skipped the initial learning curve almost entirely and therefore missed out on what could've made the movie intriguing in a unique way that the first two weren't.

Or along the East or Hudson River and taking shots from boats? A walking trip from Chinatown to Harlem took 3 days just 'cause they had to tread carefully to avoid aliens, but we never saw them have to do that once. The cat was so incredibly quiet just 'cause.

I actually winced when a guy for no reason grabs her leg while she's under the car then screams for her to help him. That makes no sense, just crawl under with her and be quiet.

[@MaticulousGamer]

movie screening was packed (I had low expectations) and I fell asleep for 30 minutes!!! I woke up to them singing in mime in a bar, and yet I still knew what the (anti)-climax was building up to... other people were also yawning, and because its a "quiet" movie, I could hear them. it was hilarious 😂 nothing happens, then the predictable happens...

Problems with Quiet Place: Day One 1. Never expands or explains why the Aliens vist 2. 10 min. of mediocre massacre and then the rest of the movie is just a rewatch of quiet place 2. 3. Boring

I was super, super, super lucky with my movie crowd. Almost immediately everyone realized rustling through food packaging and what not was too disruptive and it was dead quiet the rest of the way.

[@everforward5561]

They still can't provide an adequate explanation why our weapons and militaries don't just wipe the monsters out. I think that's why they never concentrate on military action, because it would be absolute idiocy.

[@LordLOC]

Because the military would get overwhelmed with the amount of creatures involved, I'd imagine, and in the end, they'd have to resort to nuking entire cities to try to contain them.

[@chrisretzlaff2895]

Yeah, they did engage the Aliens, and once the evacuation was complete they probably would have.

[@Cloudkiller01]

Easy answers, too fast to hit, armor too durable to penetrate. Even if something like a 50 Cal could, the odds of hitting the thing are almost 0. And at that point, even if you connected, you’ve DEFINITELY alerted every other creature in that vicinity which opens you up to being overwhelmed. And all of this assuming you’re able to make a coordinated plan silently to get the drop on these creatures before they notice you.

[@grilledleeks6514]

​@@LordLOCno. They wouldn't. A couple helicopters would wipe these out

My cat rarely ever meow or hissed. If she did it was because she was in trouble or upset which was rare. So I found it believable that her cat made no vocal sounds. People who have taken care of different types of cats understand this

[@retroboomer3197]

Where to begin? Our lead character is introduced, and oh boy, she's a real gem. By gem, I mean she openly declares she's unpleasant. Fantastic! Nothing like spending 100 minutes trying to muster some care for a self-proclaimed jerk. Then, we meet another character who sets new standards for annoyance. But hey, they had a cat. That was a nice touch. A cat that never makes a noise. Never knocks anything over or gets scared, goes swimming with you in city sewers and when it runs off when the city is being destroyed it magically finds its owner, over and over again. Ya know, just like cats in real life?

[@gitgud137]

The cat got scared multiple times during the movie, wdym? I have a cat, she never knocks shit over, she doesn't meow around. Now take into account that it's a service animal that's obviously been trained to be well behaved. I do agree however that plunging that cat into water multiple times is very unrealistic lmao. But the rest of what you said is nonsense

[@Jonathan-ic9ef]

People keep saying, "Cats would never be that quiet!" To that, is say, have you ever seen a scared cat before? I have a cat who is normally very loud, you can always hear her running throughout the house. But whenever it storms, she'll run in hide and you won't be able to find her for hours after the storm ends. Cats have survival instincts the same as anything else.

[@lesprentice4816]

Well your cat isn't being chased by aliens now is it? I don't care how trained an animal is, if a big ass alien walks by the cat is freaking out. The cat ruined the immersion of the movie

The girl didn't join the boat because she's dead. There's no medicine left, so she would only suffer in pain till she dies.

[@shpoopadoop]

The movie I want to see is the cat used as a narrative vehicle; and we just follow the cat as it runs from group to group of people and doing something to get them eaten by the aliens. Maybe the first group it bats something off a table, the second group feeds it late in the morning and it meows - and after each time the aliens are summoned the kitty just runs off and gets away - off to find it's next group of people to bring the aliens towards! The aliens realize this, and end up worshiping the cats as the Ancient Egyptians did.

[@ASKMRBUBBLES]

This movie was terrible, absolute TRASH. Do not waste your money on this one, it's nothing like the original. There's so much wrong with this movie that I don’t even know where to begin. The main issue is the writing, it SUCKS, I mean why wouldn’t they explore the alien side of things, like what are they, where do they come from, and how were they able to overwhelm the most powerful military on the planet??? Nope, instead we got a movie about a cat and some pizza...GTFOH, horrible choices for actors as well, they made the guy into a whiny, crybaby while the woman was the strong, empowered hero! Collectively, we’re all sick of that! One last thing, New Yorkers are armed up to the teeth, people would not be hiding like cowards while their loved ones, friends and neighbors are getting slaughtered, we would have fought back with everything we got, that's the movie I wanted to see, how we fight back and still loose! This was one of the worse movies I have ever seen...HOT GARBAGE!

[@CuriousChronicles82275]

I live in a 3rd world so we just torrent it. It's not even worth torrenting.

[@yaboy1340]

The movie should have been from the military's perspective. All out alien warfare. The first one was great, but if these things can't fly or swim then not only do we need the explanation of how they could ever take over the planet like that but it just would have been 1000% more entertaining than watching a dying lady try to get pizza.

[@wildel521]

[@robinhartzell2380]

I liked it but wanted more the-world-is-collapsing mayhem. So many apocalyptic movies focus on the aftermath, and I want to see more of how it all goes down at the beginning. Certainly, that would involve more special effects and a higher budget, though.

[@MrMoose365]

[@Jpmshizzle]

A buddy and I were having this same conversation. Perhaps bodies of water reflect differently with their echo location and doesn’t reflect back like the other solid things around them. Maybe looks like a void that they know they should avoid. I wish we could’ve have seen that realization at the river as ppl were loading boats, and not broadcasted over a helicopter and shown in 1 scene. Surely there has to be a Learning curve for the aliens to know that swimming doesn’t work for them.

​@@JpmshizzleI'm sure it LOOKS like a void to Aliens that have no vision.

[@gitgud137]

They make clicking sounds. They have some form of echo location. They aren't just mindless creatures, they obviously have some form of intelligence. Water interacts with sound differently compared to physical objects. The only thing that's bullshit, is if they have echo location, why can't they sense humans that are right infront of their face. That's the real plot hole. The aliens knowing where water is, is easily explainable lol.

I bought this when it was released digitally. I was pretty disappointed they cheesed out the "massacre phase" kind of aspect of a day one. I hate that they had Sam knockout and did a stupid time jump, and when she comes to, everyone knows to be quiet. Fear the Walking Dead missed this opportunity too. I wanted to see a whole shit ton of random attacks at different parts of the city, random people being massacred, the military being overrun and torn apart. Both of these films dropped the ball on that part, and that was a big part I was looking forward to for "prequel" movies.

I mean I would watch another part of the protagonist was a blind swordsman who just effortlessly cuts their heads off because another weakness is a very specific angle of their neck. And he uses his sword sheath as a tapping cane just lightly enough that it sounds like branches bending in the wind so the monsters ignore it. But the twist at the end is the swordsman wasn’t actually ever blind but was a mental patient that fabricates his own delusion of living in shogun era japan. He is in fact mentally blind to the monsters existence beyond viewing them as sword opponents.
