Current Events > TaiIs82 Reviews: A Quiet Place Part II **(SPOILERS)**

(+) Yeah! (+)

John Krasinski came back at us with another one, right after lulling me into a false sense of security with Some Good News. The events of this film are NOT good news, but fortunately they're entirely fictional. Right?....*thinks spooky thoughts as he watches the skis*

So for those of you who haven't seen the first film in the franchise (actually you could probably get away with watching the second one on its own cuz I don't remember much about the first, lol), A Quiet Place is about aliens who come here to basically wipe out everything that makes a sound. Think Tremors but complete global saturation and they can go anywhere and are super fast and overpowered. It's really unfair when you think about it, and they just come down and attack a lot of people for no reason.

Relatability: 10/10. I identified STRONGLY with the characters in this movie and really wanted to see them defeat the monsters. And to be clear, these...things are monsters. They can't be negotiated with. They are totally blind and they aren't here to promote peace or be your friend and work things out rationally with you. They want you gone. Once you're in range they WILL come after you and destroy you for ANYTHING you say, no matter what it is. You don't want to be anywhere near these disgusting creatures and every time they come around, I just wish they would go away.

What would you do, then? Well, what's left of humanity is in underground hideouts that are soundproofed as best they can. It's a 'safe' space but they're not confined to it by their choice, and things could go bad at any time (1 of the hiding places is a suffocation risk). Make 1 wrong move and the hideous beasts will try to take you out, which of course does happen to some people who were too loud or just in the wrong place at the wrong time. But nothing's invincible and eventually, people figure out that sound-based creatures are weak to loud noises. Seems way too late that they figured this out where the army did not, but okay. Our characters find out that the way to fight back is to not stay quiet, but to get louder and more confrontational. The best defense is a good offense and MORE noise! But did they figure this out in time? You will have to see it to find out.

Overall I give this movie an 8.5/10, usually I give generic good movies an 8/10 but as you can see I identified strongly with the characters here and wanted them to succeed against the fictional monsters. If you've seen this movie before, what did you think about it?

Someone let you back on Gamefaqs? Guess the lawsuit fizzled out...

Hows that lawsuit turning out?

Sounds like a cool movie, I like the twist in the end about needing to make more noise to beat the beasts instead of staying quiet. I can understand why you related to the characters
