I think with that back ground it makes sense why in a moment like this he would attach to the first person he had a connection with.

I’m shocked at your review. Simply put, lupita doesn’t stop dying of cancer just because the end of the world is happening. I think this movie (pg13 and all) perfectly illustrated that. The juxtaposition between Quinn who is a bundle of nerves and wants to live and lupita who quite literally walks against the crowd in NYC to make peace. She wanted pizza prior to the end of the world, because her end of the world has been happening. She’s been dealing with her apocalypse for awhile. Even the beautiful way she ripped the cord out of the boom box at the end summoning the alien because even though she was dying, she died on her terms and her timeline. This would have been a beautiful drama but was made better with action/suspense/horror elements. The conundrum of a quiet place is how many times can you do a movie about “shhhhh be very quiet”…and this movie accomplishes that…it gave us something new within the backdrop of same old story of quietness. Best pg13 horror in awhile.

10:11 I've seen this point everywhere, and it is a weak argument. Reason 1: Logically speaking, people tend to hide and stay quiet when threats are nearby. In the US especially, we are taught to close blinds and doors, turn off lights and get low, and remain quiet (school shooter drills) Reason 2: Sound = death. Thus, those who were out running for their lives making noise got clapped first, leaving only those hiding alive. These people are the people who we see in all the movies. Reason 3: Humans are pretty smart and are able to recognize patterns quickly (those who aren't, were killed off quickly) So the military finding out that the sound of their vehicles led to their troops being wiped isn't unbelievable. (Insert survivorship bias) Put these together, and it is not hard to figure out that noise is what is going to get you killed. If people didn't figure this out quickly, there would be no humans left. This was also shown in part 2.

It's not even that unusual to assume a predator may be attracted to noise, many natural predators irl react to sudden movement or sound, thus with that backdrop one can pretty quickly put the pieces together. I don't get why people have this idea that day one must be several painstaking hours of characters trying to working out the puzzle as it really isn't necessary and could potentially severely limit the story they are able to tell.

We looked out for each other and once we were out of danger, we spent years trying to reconnect. Humans do care for one another. Propaganda makes us believe we wouldnt in these end of the world scenarios. We are capable of good. If we werent, fighting in wars wouldnt drive people crazy because it would be second nature to kill 🤷🏽♀️

I keep seeing people bringing up the swimming thing and I personally just don’t get it 😅. Just because you can’t swim doesn’t mean you can’t be in water. We don’t know where these things come from or know much about their anatomy so we can’t say for sure that water as a whole is bad for them. And they never said they were afraid of water, just that they can’t swim. These creatures are over 6ft tall, so that monster had no problem being in the basement because it can reach the bottom. In deep open water, however, they can’t reach and they can’t swim. It’s like being in a shallow pool vs being in the open ocean, there’s only one you can survive in if you can’t swim. Though, maybe for the sewer scene in this movie I think that maybe the death angel was so focused on getting to Sam and Eric that it wasn’t even taking in its surroundings; Cause it literally drowned itself without even realizing it. As for the boats I kinda disagree. They were on the boat and safe, and there was enough distance between them and land. Since the death angels can’t swim, them stopping for him wouldn’t necessarily be putting them in danger so I can see them actually stopping. And trust, I’m the last person to have any faith in humanity, lol. However, I do wish we got to see the ship attack that was mentioned in the 2nd movie. I thought we would’ve seen it, and it even could’ve been a cool ending to see the people get to the island, but we just saw the one. Which also, I’m pretty sure he said only two got off so I wonder why we only saw one
@GirlWithAnAddiction1Ай бұрын

That was both soothing and powerful. Talking about nonsense, as much as I agree there´s no way a cat would be that chill, it´s still nothing compared to the 10 minute silent labour with a creature crawling two meters behind.

I completely understand not really being into it especially if that’s not what you came for. I can see going in expecting one thing and how different it actually is.

I’ll give this movie a 7.5/10 in my opinion And another spoiler: For anyone saying that all the main character cared about was pizza, that was because she had terminal cancer. She knew she was gonna die either way. Whether it was from the cancer or the creatures. If it wasn’t from the creatures, the cancer would have still killed her. That’s what makes the story powerful and emotional. People complaining just didn’t 100% pay full attention to the movie because it is so much more than just wanting pizza, she had a reason behind it. Anyways, since she knew she was dying, there was nothing wrong with the fact that she wanted pizza. Plus it was the pizza place that brought back memories with her dad that passed away. Another good reason she wanted that pizza. Also Lupita Nyong’o did an incredible job in this movie. Extremely talented actress

The first two had the same formula and this one did as well they just made it more human in my opinion. I get what you said about Lupita wanting to get pizza when it’s literally an apocalypse going on. I guess she just already made peace with dying due to her cancer. And she felt like if i’m going to die it will be on my terms when i am good and ready. And i feel like we would have to be in those shoes to judge that predicament.

My opinion… I wanted this to be more of a newer/different pov. I liked the tie in of the dude (can’t remember his name) from 2 but we were told exactly what happened from him in 2. This just gave us a second person’s story of that. Idk I wanted more expansion onto the Why of the series. I liked the beginning ish, where they’re talking about the decibels of NYC, because it made more sense on why they landed there first-ish. Then the scene with the eggs??? Didn’t make any sense and it was placed weirdly. Like the whole “let me follow this cat so I can bring it back to her” makes sense the “cat is going to a weird place that is OBVIOUSLY their landing spot, let me keep going” didn’t make sense because his whole personality is anxiety and he wants to live. Then it wasn’t even like explained well with what we saw. I had to Google what the monsters were eating? And it still didn’t make sense. I don’t know. It didn’t feel strong enough. I love quiet place. The glimpse of their (OG fam) day one in 2 was more realistic than this one was.

They didn't land on earth on purpose lol. Their planet was destroyed or something and the remnants of their world crashed into earth, the aliens are clearly not sentient in the way humans are, they are clearly animals driven by instinct and survival. And maybe apocalyptic stories aren't your thing, because most of the genre is about character arcs in dire and otherworldly situations rarely ever focusing on the "Why" or "Cause" of such events.

I had issues with Day One as well, but not necessarily the ones you posed. I didn’t think the male character being clingy was hard to believe. I absolutely think in a frightening situation, there would be people searching for any kind of human lifeline to hold on to, especially given he was in a foreign country most likely without anyone there he was close to. My issues were logistical. For instance, if the government knew the aliens followed sound, why would they tell everyone to start the evacuation together causing an inevitable wave of sound? Why not start causing a bunch of noise as a distraction on one of the end of the city to draw the aliens away, and then direct everyone to the boats taking a different path? Also if they figured out they couldn’t swim, why not use sound to lure all the aliens to the coast, and then send a bunch of war ships to attack them as a cluster. This is New York City. If there’s any city the government would prioritize defending, it would be New York. Decisions like that were what bothered me the most, and kept me from fully getting invested in the film. My Ranking: #1. A Quiet Place (By Far) #2. A Quiet Place Part 2 #3. A Quiet Place Day One

I mostly agree with you, this movie didn't really get anything new (expect the monsters eating something). BUT I don't know why everybody brings up the water scenes, if they can or cannot swim. - The monsters are probably more dense than water so they would sink in it, and based on their anatomy (if I can say that), they don't really seem to be able to swim. - In the first movie they were in a basement where the monster could just walk under the water. - In the sequel there was a deeper water where the monster just sunk basically. - In "Day One" it's more interesting because it seemed the monster died by suffocating in the sewer, it literally lost air from it's lungs(?), so how did they survive in space?

As a person who has just gone through a (smaller) loss, I'd say go for it. Seek an empty screening and jump in. I bawled at the end but the message of the movie felt SO healing to me. It says that death isn't so scary after all, that what's really important is not avoiding death at all cost but valuing LIFE in the amount that you have at all cost.

i'm surprised that you don't think there's a lot of tension in this movie, because to me it felt like the most suspenseful of the franchise! i thought it did a great job of balancing the tense, scary scenes with the emotional drama stuff. it definitely came close to crossing the line of getting a little too melodramatic at times, but it still managed to make me tear up. probably my favorite in the franchise.

I really loved this movie BUT I’m definitely the black sheep fan of this franchise because frankly…I’m not lol. I found a quiet place really predictable, which cut into all the emotional parts for me, and I just never felt the same fear…or care lol for their lives in the 2nd movie. I think these movies were always trying to hit more of an emotional punch than be a monster movie so I guess I expected that from this too? So I was expecting to be disappointed and was refreshingly surprised! I can see why if I was hyped for this since day 1 (haha) I’d be annoyed but I just love a good emotional story with compelling characters and monsters in the foreground!!

I thought it was above average. 28 Days Later did a better job of showing isolation in a big city, imo. *SPOILERS* They hid the aliens for some reason for awhile. But they fully showed them in the first two movies. There's also plenty of images of them on the internet. This is not the way to build suspense. I'd really only watch this one if I were watching a marathon of the franchise. The cat survived! So, yay! 😊

I loved it! I think if I hadn't watched spoiler reviews I would be disappointed too. I was well aware it was less of a horror and more of a drama or character study. I also can't judge it by the first two because I've never seen them. When she got out the bus, there were already jets flying, so the government probably already knew something. I'm not sure if it's common for jets to fly over New York. I also think that man tagged along 'cause he was scared, and she was nice (or tolerant), and they attached themselves to eachother because their feelings were so heightened by the apocalypse and they were both alone. I believe you that in real life that might not happen, but it's also a movie - and a movie about aliens at that. They stopped the bus 'cause Djimoun said to, and he's awesome. You gotta do what he says. It looked like to me the alien was struggling to move and that's why they drowned. Emily Blunt looked like she was standing and these monsters are significantly taller than humans. Maybe it was standing instead of swimming. The alien in this movie had also just exerted itself trying to chase the two, so maybe it didn't have enough oxygen in it's lung to wade it's way back to the station.

This is another reason why I don’t pay much attention to marketing and/or trailers because I don’t want to form any expectations and/or biases. For example, smile had some of the best marketing tactics but the movie’s social commentary on mental illness was disgusting. I absolutely adored Quiet Place: Day One. Yes, it’s a creature film and it would have been nice to get more information about them BUT Sammy’s and Eric’s perspectives about life and survival are refreshing. I grew to care them just as much as the Abott family. @foxministry in this comment section describe the point of this movie beautifully.

after 2-3 hours they already knew that they're super sensible to sound and that they can't swim, if the military knew so much about the aliens this early then it doesn't make sense why they wouldn't hide in one of many underground bunkers or a nuclear submarine and develop some sort of ultrasonic weapon in like a month. i mean you don't have to be a genius to figure that out, considering that they already knew which are the weak points of the aliens

I agree, this is my least favorite. I went with a small group of AQP fans and I was the sole person who thought it was disappointing. My main beef was the cat. The film would have been better without it. All I could think of was when is it going to meow and get eaten? When will we see a usable litter box? How does the cat always find the person the director wants us to have it find next? Since when does a cat not freak out when it gets near water? Or hiss like Jonesy in Alien when a monster comes near? Every time the cat came onscreen a new question would pop up in my mind and ruin any tension. I honestly cannot recommend this film to any fan of the franchise. I rewatched the first two before seeing this one, and I really love both of them. This one? Super disappointing.

This one was a pleasant surprise to me personally. I agree with a majority of your takes but some of them not so much I guess. The one thing that the movie left me wanting more of was the government communication with the citizens. The helicopters and loudspeakers, the radio, maybe some amber alerts sent to phones, idk, just more of that. The idea of desperately trying to find out what’s going on, not only makes an apocalypse movie interesting but drastically elevates the horror for me personally. The moment the movie started and you see lupita’s character in hospice, I knew she wasn’t making it out alive. Which tells me that I should just be invested in her character arc, while simultaneously rooting for the survival of Joseph’s character. The film was sappy sure, and definitely leans into that a lot, which may not be people’s cup of tea. But it made the movie feel super human to me, and I ate that up. The monsters feeding scene was practically pointless in the context of this movie. It did reveal some interesting things though. Confirmed that they don’t kill people to eat them, but perhaps need people in order to grow food for themselves and offspring? But that scene honestly should’ve been shelved and used as a discovery for the characters in the original trilogy. It would just make more sense, plus the characters in the first two movies would actually care about this discovery. (Assuming, the first two are apart of a trilogy)

I went back and watched the trailers after seeing this movie, it was absolutely advertised as being a different movie. There are scenes and lines in the trailer that never appear in the movie, and plot points that you would think are extremely important to the movie that were never referenced in the trailers or summary. It’s also supposed to be a prequel, but we already saw the aliens land in the second movie, and the chaos of “day one” so why did we need a whole movie dedicated to it ( a whole movie that only spent a few minutes on day one btw) it felt less like a prequel and more like a spin off with characters I could care less about. I would’ve been much more interested in seeing Djimon Hounsou’s characters perspective, he describes what it was like in the second movie, I thought we’d see more of that in the prequel.

I didnt watch Day One, but I think what makes sense about the aliens not being able to swim is about how dense and heavy they are. In the first film, the water is shallow enough for the alien to curiously dip into it (and for dramatic effect), as well as trying to possibly hearing any movements from Evelyn. All things considered, I understand why they can't swim.
