And how he made her the lead even with a hearing disability.

I just saw A Quiet Place Part II at the drive in, and I was really emotional at the forward by John Krasinski before the movie. He thanked everyone for coming out to see the movie in person, and it may be silly but it was my first time going out since the pandemic. The gratitude he expressed that we came, made me realize how happy he was that his movie would be seen, and made me realize how happy I was to be doing something as normal as going to see a movie.

[@AJtheSwede]

John is so talented it's insane. I loved the first movie and I've seen it so many times. So I've been waiting to see this for such a long time. And I finally did tonight, I haven't been to the cinema since September 2020 and it was worth it 100 times over. He outdid himself, sequels rarely do, but John absolutely crushed it 👌🏻👌🏻. If their ever is a Part 3 I hope John does everything again. Otherwise I don't want it 🙂. Oh and every actor did a fantastic job, Millicent has a super bright future ahead of her and Emily once again brought her a game, what a power couple they are John and Emily 😍👍🏻.

We just watched this movie in the theater. We hadn't been to a movie theater in 14 months! It felt so amazing to feel like life may be getting back to normal. This was a great movie to come back to the movie theater again! We really enjoyed it. I also accidentally yelled out loud when that first alien attacked the cop car. I think I scared everyone in the theater! We also loved how the perspective changed between a deaf person and hearing person. That was awesome and was very jarring.
