I normally would talk about "the experience of WATCHING a movie," but since I've started reviewing actively and losing my hearing, it's become the experience as a WHOLE - in my ability to be both immersed and entertained.Īnd boy was this entertaining. That personal experience was brought to life in the excellent use of sound - normal sound, no sound and the "sound of silence," sound from the perspective of someone that is completely deaf. Nine months ago I lost a chunk of hearing in that good ear and have since started wearing hearing aids. When I first saw the original Quiet Place in 2018, I could still hear perfectly in my good ear (the other one crapped out on me 20 years ago). Where the original begins in near complete silence, 89 days after the "sound-monster" apocalypse, the sequel starts on Day One with the "noisy" daily routine of the dynamic duo of real-life husband and wife John Krasinski and Emily Blunt, demonstrating their split-second survival instincts as "shit gets real" in a matter of minutes.īut back to the use of sound in both movies. Here's the trailer if you haven't seen it before, and trust me, it's a wild ride.That was the biggest impression I had from the opening sequence of A Quiet Place 2. I barely breathed throughout the whole film ? #SXSW /e4jA528Dbp albeit in a wonderful, terrifying & emotional way. #SXSW2018Ī QUIET PLACE: Holy moly what a ride! I now suspect to be a cruel human, because he absolutely tortures the audience.
What a brilliant bit of a genre cinema that's equal parts Spielberg and Romero. zcmoOwjNa6Ī QUIET PLACE: who would've thought John Krasinski had an all-timer horror picture in him? One of best mainstream creature features in years with a wild pure cinema experimental streak. Justifiably filled with jump scares but it never feels cheap. #SXSW /o3ymd7r63VĪre there any good jump scares? Very interested to see those.Ī Quiet Place milks its high concept (make a sound and a monster will get you) for all it is worth. Krasinski, Blunt, the kids, all top notch.
#A quiet place rotten tomatoes movie#
Intellectually, I recognize that this movie fucking rules. A QUIET PLACE is the MOST audible horror movie I've ever seen. The tension is so taut your stomach will turn in relentless knots.
It weaponizes your own screams against you. #AQuietPlace is a masterclass in suspense. #sxswĭeliciously terrifying? I've never heard that ever before, but what a perfect fit. John Krasinski made a horror movie that's wholly original and, btw, really, REALLY scary. #AQuietPlace is INCREDIBLY effective my hands hurt from clenching my fists this whole time. So far, people on Twitter can't get enough of it. It also seems like a huge shift for Krasinski as he is mainly known for his starring role in the beloved comedy show 'The Office'. Everyone who has watched 'The Quiet Place' so much that the movie currently sits at 100% on Rotten Tomatoes.Ĭritics are praising the film for its atmosphere, Krasinski's tense direction and Blunt's performance. The movie by John Krasinski, where he plays the lead along with his wife Emily Blunt, had its premiere at the ongoing South by Southwest Festival in Austin, Texas, and so far, people are loving it. Since these forces are attracted by sound, the family tries their best to live in a quiet, secluded farm away from any noise whatsoever. Basically, the movie revolves around a family living in world with mysterious supernatural forces that have surfaced everywhere.
The plot seems quite original, and is a little twisted. Okay yes, it is not technically a silent movie, but it's a quiet movie about a really quiet place.Īll jokes aside, this horror movie looks very promising, because of the whole premise, and the movie may be silent, but it is quite deadly. When you think of a silent movie, you obviously don't think of a horror movie, but 'A Quite Place' is here to break all the rules.
