There’s this new comedy that came out yesterday called the presidential debate, I would highly recommend a watch. The two leads are both just so hilarious
I loved the first two. I appreciate this movie trying to be different, but I didn’t feel like I got much out of it. This movie is one of the ultimate examples of why I strongly dislike jump scares in this era of horror. There’s several times in this movie where we would get jump scared, but nothings happening, it’s just another person that shows up and that’s it. Fake jump scares like that always frustrate me. Always love hearing different perspectives though, but imo, I think this movie is a mixed bag for me.
Watched it yesterday in IMAX and absolutely loved it! Incredible acting and cinematography. Felt completely different from the other 2 which is a great thing and overall amazing movie and would highly recommended 🔥
I love this series, and I wasn't expecting this one to be as good as the first two, but after seeing the personal story and journey of these characters, I think this might be my favorite of the 3 so far and I'm very looking forward to future movies in this franchise.
I really liked it. It’s not on the level as the first in the franchise, but I think it does a decent job at introducing these new characters that the film gets the audience to care about. An interesting concept - setting it in NYC, and a PEAK cat character that will go down in history.
Just watched it after seeing The Bikeriders. I think I like The Bikeriders more but neither one I would put above Furiosa, Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes, and Bad Boys: Ride or Die. The theater that always seems to be packed where I live is for Horizon: An American Saga Chapter 1 (of 4). That’s actually the perfect movie for summer. Western. Scenes in a hot desert riding on horses. And it’s 3-hours long. The longer people can stay inside that theater for free air conditioning.
Kinda slow at first, couldn't connect with characters, the cat was the most well trained ever, bunch of changing rules for the noises. And biggest complaint is we didn't learn anything new about the monsters
Exactly. All this on top of the fact that the only character who had a meaningful relationship with Sam (the nurse) was just killed off, and by the time Eric was introduced, there was just both not enough time and not enough room to give him good character development. The only reason he was introduced was just because Sam was terminally ill and was unable to make it out alive, so the audience had to have some person to cheer for to make it out alive. But because Eric just relied on Sam the whole time and wasn’t developed very well, it just didn’t feel too rewarding when he made it to the boat at the end of the movie. And then that cat… The only reason over half the plot points happened was because of that cat. It’s the only character I cared for, yet like you said, it was just so conveniently well trained and never caused problems. I have a lot of complaints with the plot points that were driven by the cat, but I’ll talk about one specific one. When Eric was getting Sam meds and the cat tagged along and ran off, Eric went to climb up a small bit of a tower to save the cat. This led to us discovering the location of the nest of all the aliens. I’ll start by saying first off every time the cat has run off, it’s been completely fine. It felt pretty stupid for Eric to chase after the cat considering the cat presented itself as smart and independent. Yet Eric decided to chase after it thus showing the audience the hive of the aliens. When this happened, I was like oh finally, something cool is about to happen. BUT NO! All that happens is a few aliens ran by, a couple eggs were shown, and then IT JUST CUT BACK TO ERIC BEING WITH SAM. He was in an extremely precarious situation, so how in the heck did he get out of it? Well the movie just decided to not show us that. The movie just hints at entertaining things to come yet those things just never come. I thought it was be really cool for a plot point to try and be to destroy that nest, or at least some eggs, but it was just never shown again. Anyways, sorry for the essay, I was just in the mood to type all that
Really enjoyed A Quiet Place: Day One while watching it. But for me it just didn’t have a lot of staying power. 90% of the film feels like a great pilot for a tv show, but the last 10 minutes completely rushes into the finale
there was NOTHING day one about this movie Great Quiet Place Movie Bad Day One Apocalypse movie She got knocked out in the first invasion then woke up and everyone already knew how the monsters work this part upset me terribly
10:26 I would have to disagree. (Obviously spoilers for A Quiet Place: Day One. But only very minor spoilers...) - In that scene were Eric goes into that construction zone, we see what looks to be an alpha or stronger version of the Death Angels. We also see that same Alpha call other ones over which we have never seen them communicate like that before. And then we see them using what looks to be human bodies to help grow this extraterrestrial fauna that seems to be the food source for these creatures which now gives them a purpose to WHY they are killing humans....
As a person that only have seen this movie from the franchise, i would recommend to people who havent seen it, it made me want to watch the other two movies. This surprised me in a very good way
Seeing the movie tomorrow, but I disagree that we should have more info about the creatures from a prequel. For Part III, sure. Prequel, of course not.
Saw this film last night, first time doing an opening night viewing and first time seeing a film before Sean does a film review A- in my opinion. My review: While it may not have a well‑paced story of the previous installments, Day One succeeds in having good tension, jump scares, and an emotional compelling performance by Lupita Nyong'o.
Never been a big fan of the series but i like big budget films so this why i saw it.Not suspenseful or emotional enough.It drags in some parts.I loved the cat.Good enough but it could have been so much better.
My thoughts on this film were that this was the NYC alien invasion movie that Cloverfield wishes it could be. While it’s not as good as the first (maybe on par or a bit better than the second), there’s an incredibly human element to this story. The characters bond over the smallest things and help each other endure their hardships. While it doesn’t add to the lore, it doesn’t really need to (maybe we’re getting that in part 3).
I wish people realized it was lacking. Not to compare it to the first two I’m ok with it being separate but it was lacking a lot. And it’s more pg I wouldn’t say pg13 I didn’t even see gore only semi gore was -*spoiler* a broken neck
Literally exactly what i said in my review. When the end credits showed who directed it, it felt like a grand reveal. “Oh so the movie was mid cause it wasn’t John” huge plot twist.
Just came out of the film, and my showing only had me and 4 other people there. So, I unfortunately didn’t get the full crowd experience lol. 😅 Film was enjoyable tho.
Probably the time you went to go see it. Tbf, there’s a lotta stuff in theaters rn too, Quiet Place, Horizon, Kalki, Blue Lock, not to mention stuff that’s been out, Bad Boys, Inside Out, Kinds of Kindness, etc.
Saw it yesterday. Thought it was good. Very emotional in the end. Great monster chase sequences. But the first hour i just found it hard to care about the new characters
I’m a HUGE movie lover/fanatic and aspiring actress. I’ve already watched 20 movie releases this year in the movie theater including both Horizon:An American Saga and A Quiet Place Day One yesterday and I throughly enjoyed both. Even though I think the first movie in this franchise is the best this new third one is my favorite of the franchise. This was another good movie review Sean. ❤❤❤❤
I’m also disappointed we don’t learn anything new on the alien, but with their superior speed and strength, humans are in survivor mode; we are not going to get our hands on the alien. The only way is to do a movie from the alien’s perspective. That would be unique, it much harder to do since there will be no dialogue.
Also i felt that joseph quinns character was so underdeveloped and replaceable. Shes really the only character with a hint of depth. Movie isn’t bad tho. Just underwhelming
I didn’t love it as much as Part 1 or 2 but as a survival thriller with aliens, I really enjoyed my time. The characters were enjoyable and Lupita Nyong’o and Joseph Quinn were excellent together.
I’ll be catching this one on streaming. I don’t have the best opinion of the first two Quiet Place movies, tho I don’t think they’re bad. This one doesn’t really call to me much either, tho the Day One aspect is interesting. It was probably the only scene I loved in II. I’ll be watching Blue Lock Episode Nagi instead 👍
Pretty disappointed with the fact that this movie wasn’t even really a quiet place movie. What I mean by this is the suspense is just not really there, and the movie doesn’t make a single reference to the other two movies. It didn’t answer a single question I had about the origins of the aliens, and a lot of plot conveniences led a good number of boring parts
@@ericsmusic5927 brother it’s a prequel. It’s main job is to answer questions and reference the source material in order to do so. It didn’t make any effort to explain the backstory of anything, which is what a prequel is meant to do. On top of that, there are quite a few plot holes. There also just isn’t much suspense, making for a pretty unenjoyable movie. You can gladly ask me what all those plot holes and reasons are, and I can copy and paste quite a hefty string of words to describe what makes this movie mid
My friend and I watched the film together last night, and we both have significantly different views on why one loved the movie and the other felt like it lacked (I believe the film lacked). SPOILERS AHEAD... So, the themes of the "A Quiet Place" movies essentially boil down to family. The stories are told in a big world while focusing on a small group. Now, the marketing for this movie is why I think it has gotten mixed reviews as of its release date. This film showcased the FIRST DAY of the new world, and we kind of skip over that (now bear with me). When the aliens arrive, there is a cloud of smoke that fills the streets and surrounds Lupita's character, Sam; this builds tension because Sam doesn't know what is happening; the audience does because we have seen the monsters in previous movies, and it was at this point that I believe the film started to fail for me. During this scene, Sam tries to understand what is happening but cannot see anything. She runs, hides, finds someone staying quiet, sits with them and watches an individual calling out for help in the nearby distance who gets killed by the monsters. She then gets up and runs for her life, and an explosion knocks her back to a wall, and she goes unconscious. The title card reveals the movie's name, and we wake up to everyone understanding that they need to be quiet. What I believe would have been more enjoyable when she was in the cloud of smoke is instead of having an explosion knock her out, have us, the audience, experience the world going quiet with Sam. During a moment when you cannot see anything, we could essentially be in the shoes of the monsters while still following our protagonist, which would be a POV we have never explored (this would have been something new to contribute to the films). During this moment, it's loud and chaotic; with each passing second, the decibels get lower and lower because the monsters attack and destroy anything that makes a sound. This would have been an exciting way to showcase to our character that sounds affect the creatures. It felt cheap that Sam had to be "told" not to speak or make sounds. Day One should have been about the characters adapting to the new setting and how they must learn to survive these new predators that have invaded Earth. While the story of Sam going to get pizza fits the theme of a small story set in a big world that a quiet place is known for, the marketing for this movie did not do that storyline justice. If you go over the trailers, they continue to show us this idea that we will be viewing a story of two unlucky characters who get caught in an unbelievably horrific position, and the whole time thinking, how will they escape? If you are someone like me who has watched the previous movies before seeing this one, you already know the monster's weakness; you know they can't swim, that higher frequency sounds can cause them grief and run away, and that loud noises can trump minor sounds. What I expected to see in this film was these survival tactics being learned by the two main characters. There is a great scene in the film where our two characters, Sam and Eric, are in a tunnel being flowed down by a rapid stream of water, and the monster chases them on the ceiling. Brilliant tension, and I, for a moment, forgot that these monsters couldn't swim. As the water gets higher, the monster is caught in it and unfortunately drowns; right there, our characters learn the monsters cannot swim and must go to a boat on the water to escape. This way of showcasing should have been prominent throughout the entire movie. There is a scene when it starts raining, and this would be interesting because we have yet to see what happens with the monsters when environmental factors are considered. Two characters are out in the streets and come up to this metal roof where the noise of the rain trumps the characters' voices, which are kept at a low volume. Sam suddenly looks up at the roof, becomes really smart, and starts talking (at a low volume), saying their voice won't be heard because the rain would be louder, but all I could think was, how could she possibly know that? We have never been told that. These characters have yet to be shown that this is even remotely possible. Again, to me, it felt cheap. They told the audience instead of show. The first movie did this as well, but they at least showed this effect by having the little boy scream at the top of his lungs at the waterfall and us being positioned so far away that we could barely hear him over the waterfall. For the scene in the rain for Day One, what would have been better was if they had the monsters close by and either one of the characters made a mistake dropping something or pushing something over, making a sound, but the monsters don't notice it because it's drowned out by the rain. This, again, would've been a way to showcase how our characters could have a chance at survival against these creatures. On top of that, learning they could talk while it was raining and decided to go find shelter was the loudest "HUH?" I had ever said out loud in a theatre. Again, I know the story centred around Sam wanting to get pizza as a last wish, but even then, to minimize the potential danger of being killed by the monsters, they should have walked the streets of New York during that weather! Overall, the movie is crafted well with its storyline IF the marketing was better handled to showcase the story they told rather than the one we were expecting. The trailers showed a fast-paced, scary horror, which didn't fit the themes of the past two movies, where characters are going to be put in positions that help us (the audience) learn how the characters of a quiet place 1&2 learn the skills and tactics to survive 400 days after Day One. I was expecting something different, which excited me, but this movie was the same thing we had seen before, with cheap ways of telling us how they survive and not actually showing us. Quick note... The first time my friend and I saw the group of monsters crawling around New York at terrifying speeds was extremely fun! It was a solid movie, but the first two were miles ahead on rating scores because they knew what stories they wanted to tell and what audiences they wanted to attract. 6/10.
You gonna do a review of the new Kevin Costner movie? Horizon: An American Saga, I'm interested in hearing your thoughts on it, especially since it seems there hasn't been a whole lot of marketing for it.
Not as good as the first, but still pretty good! Lupita Nyong’o is a phenomenal actress and she is so beautiful. And (spoiler!!!) I’m so glad the cat lived, such a cute cat! 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
How were newspapers being printed and distributed in the middle of all the mayhem? Did they use noiseless printing machines? Why did she keep having babies -- did she not read the warnings in the newspaper? This franchise is littered with inconsistencies, plot holes, and nails conveniently being wrong-side up for a convenient bare foot to come down on it. And are we to believe that those creatures are unable to hear a cat purring?
I found this to be a great and very enjoyable prequel but a kinda wasted and disappointing as well. I thought leads were absolutely amazing, phenomenal performances and you see everything they're feeling. I liked how this was a much more character driven story and you were very invested in them. It had plenty of tense, frightening scenes and plenty of emotional, heartfelt moments. But the tense and thrills weren't as good this time round. And the new york setting was different but not as chaotic as i thought it was gonna be. And we all thought we were gonna get more information about the aliens, why they're there, how they're they're and what they are exactly but it didn't do anything like that so it was kinda pointless in a way. Still enjoyed it though, I'd give it a 7/10 maybe a 7.5
Going to have to disagree this time Sean. I didn’t enjoy it much, and it really didn’t feel like it expanded any of the A Quiet Place lore or worldbuilding. It felt like it dragged for an hour straight too. I’m giving it like a 4.8/10 myself.
This is was character building but I still didn’t connect with the character at all even with her having her dad die and I have recently lost my dad and I still didn’t connect with her. It was an hour and 30min in and I check the time in my phone it was just not enough
I loved this movie so much, I felt like it was about to drag but it didn't to me. I understand your complains tho, but this film is much more compelling then the first two in the woods, in my opinion. I also didn't see those in theatres tho so I may be byist
Exactly the cat licked it and then they started eating it as well and nothing explained at all I thought maybe the monsters eggs but nope it didn’t show anything else
Also, kudos for not giving away details concerning Lupita's 'situation' which I was already hit with on an alleged "non-spoiler" channel earlier. I checked a few more with a "non-spoiler" review caption that ALSO revealed it. So disrespectful.
The worlds most well behaved and silent cat... very unrealistic and cringe.. cats are pretty fucking vocal especially in a traumatic situation like threatens its wel being and that of those who feed it.. it would have hissed and scowled at the creatures at every given moment... and it would have gone ballistic in the water... come on people,, the cat ruined the realistic impact of the movie
Me and my friend went to go see this last night, and whenever there was a silent scene, we started drastically munching on popcorn and slurping our drinks, and a guy in front of this typed FU on his phone and held it up at us. I don’t think I’ve ever had such a hard time trying to not laugh.
Just got out of the theater, gotta say… worst plot I think I’ve ever seen, it’s literally just about getting pizza. The characters weren’t interesting. They never explained how they figured out all the stuff about the monsters, like how they can’t swim, or that talking by rain is fine. If you liked, that’s good, but personally I did not enjoy it.
@@toxic1strike167 I know it was about her wanting to go home, or something like that. I don’t know I just didn’t enjoy the movie, but if you did, that’s great
@@themostirrelevantchannelon9189 it was more about her grief for her dad and that feeling leading toward her existentialism toward her own approaching death. I got a lot out of it but I respect that fact that you didn’t as well
They are pushing heavily inclusion on any possible way, even when not needed, so obvious in this movie. Aside of that, very lame movie and overrated critics. Just few points; 1. Lady goes out to walk her cat to pizza place after initial attack, even she doesn't know absolutely anything about those monesters, aside she shouldn't make any noise. Maybe they could see her, smell her, feel vibrations, heat.. but no, she simply walks out. 2. Bunch of people meet at avenue and starts to walk towards harbor, just like that and suddenly no one is concerned about noise. 3. Where are other animals, such as dogs, birds, doubt they were all killed first ? 4. If monsters follow sound and choppers, couldn't they simply lure them towards one place and nuke them or towards some dam to water them ? All you need is one chopper, 80s playlist and lure them wherever you want. 2/3 of movie is lame "try to know me" story. Better they focused on escaping out of city with more monster hunting scenes.
Sean, cut the BS. This movie didn't offer anything new, it was boring, horrible writing, stupid plot. You are gaslighting your audience. This is the best they could do? Stop being a paid shill
It was decent not “good” Felt pretty forgettable and I didn’t like the cliche with the UK and black girl being strangers then trying to friends felt too familiar 6/10 would never watch again tho
@@Man_in_a_Gucci_Suit totally agree. There wasn't enough explanation or information as to how they found out that they needed to stay silent. It was just an immediate announcement without research or findings. The creatures arrived without warning, so the people wouldn't know instantly to be quiet. There was just too much missing and it was too slow and dull and boring.
@@benbergin538 well I mean naturally some people would scream their heads off and die But some people when they get scared freeze up and don’t make any noise so I do in that sense find it reasonable the people that naturally freeze up instead of scream survive Now the scene with hundreds of people walking downtown at one time made no sense if they all knew to stay quiet it’s common sense out of hundreds of people someone would make a sound that scene was unrealistic and stupid
"8 out of 10"??? You have got to be kidding? There's nothing new here. The most interesting thing would've been showing how the people gradually learned to be silent, but we got none of that. She gets knocked unconscious for probably less than an hour and when she comes to, everyone knows that you must remain silent to survive. Exactly as in the other two movies. What a hopeless "reviewer". He just expects us to pay our cash because it's a new movie in the franchise. No wonder he wears a Batman T-shirt. How's that franchise going???
Pathetic review and a very disappointing movie. You once again don't get to see the learning curve for the humans about the necessity to remain silent to survive, because she is knocked unconscious and when she come to, everyone is amazingly up to speed with it? Just like '28 Days Later', 'The Walking Dead' etc Very lazy writing. 👎🏻
There isn't much of a "learning curve." The people who instinctively thought "stay quiet" are the only people who are left alive after the initial panic. Anybody who screamed or made any major noise were all wiped out almost instantly.
This movie was very awful it had too many holes I thought this movie wasn't needed if you weren't going to bring back the original family so to me this movie was stupid and a total miss

I’m a HUGE movie lover/fanatic and aspiring actress. I’ve already watched 20 movie releases this year in the movie theater including both Horizon:An American Saga and A Quiet Place Day One yesterday and I throughly enjoyed both. Even though I think the first movie in this franchise is the best this new third one is my favorite of the franchise. This was another good movie review Sean. ❤❤❤❤
I’m also disappointed we don’t learn anything new on the alien, but with their superior speed and strength, humans are in survivor mode; we are not going to get our hands on the alien. The only way is to do a movie from the alien’s perspective. That would be unique, it much harder to do since there will be no dialogue.
Yeah, Joseph Quinn is a really great actor, he made the movie more emotional
It was a solid movie but you can only do so much with the concept before it gets old
Imo i dont think its the concept. I think its the execution. Mid characters. Mid story. I liked the suspense. Id love to see more quiet place films
I second the idea that’s it’s not the concept, it’s the execution and seeming lack of vision with the world building.
@@IlikelegofortniteMid story and characters? Damn I feel like the consensus is this is the most heartfelt
@@Trill_Tour i mean it has the most heartfelt idea. Like her dealing with her sickness. But the story doesn’t expand on it enough to make you care.
Also i felt that joseph quinns character was so underdeveloped and replaceable. Shes really the only character with a hint of depth. Movie isn’t bad tho. Just underwhelming
I didn’t love it as much as Part 1 or 2 but as a survival thriller with aliens, I really enjoyed my time. The characters were enjoyable and Lupita Nyong’o and Joseph Quinn were excellent together.
So you’re telling me a 50 cal bullet wouldn’t blow these things in half? Would it just bounce off them then? I think not.
Hey Sean will you be reviewing horizon?
I’ll be catching this one on streaming. I don’t have the best opinion of the first two Quiet Place movies, tho I don’t think they’re bad. This one doesn’t really call to me much either, tho the Day One aspect is interesting. It was probably the only scene I loved in II. I’ll be watching Blue Lock Episode Nagi instead 👍
i watched this in cinema and all the moviegoers are surprisingly quiet, i can barely hear anyone munching or whispering.
Pretty disappointed with the fact that this movie wasn’t even really a quiet place movie. What I mean by this is the suspense is just not really there, and the movie doesn’t make a single reference to the other two movies. It didn’t answer a single question I had about the origins of the aliens, and a lot of plot conveniences led a good number of boring parts
How can it make references if Day One took place before those two movies in the timeline? You make no sense
@@ericsmusic5927 brother it’s a prequel. It’s main job is to answer questions and reference the source material in order to do so. It didn’t make any effort to explain the backstory of anything, which is what a prequel is meant to do. On top of that, there are quite a few plot holes. There also just isn’t much suspense, making for a pretty unenjoyable movie. You can gladly ask me what all those plot holes and reasons are, and I can copy and paste quite a hefty string of words to describe what makes this movie mid
@@BigHeisenberg Not reading all of that
@@ericsmusic5927 let’s gooo I won the argument. It was a good chat. Have a good one!
My friend and I watched the film together last night, and we both have significantly different views on why one loved the movie and the other felt like it lacked (I believe the film lacked).
SPOILERS AHEAD...
So, the themes of the "A Quiet Place" movies essentially boil down to family. The stories are told in a big world while focusing on a small group. Now, the marketing for this movie is why I think it has gotten mixed reviews as of its release date. This film showcased the FIRST DAY of the new world, and we kind of skip over that (now bear with me). When the aliens arrive, there is a cloud of smoke that fills the streets and surrounds Lupita's character, Sam; this builds tension because Sam doesn't know what is happening; the audience does because we have seen the monsters in previous movies, and it was at this point that I believe the film started to fail for me.
During this scene, Sam tries to understand what is happening but cannot see anything. She runs, hides, finds someone staying quiet, sits with them and watches an individual calling out for help in the nearby distance who gets killed by the monsters. She then gets up and runs for her life, and an explosion knocks her back to a wall, and she goes unconscious. The title card reveals the movie's name, and we wake up to everyone understanding that they need to be quiet.
What I believe would have been more enjoyable when she was in the cloud of smoke is instead of having an explosion knock her out, have us, the audience, experience the world going quiet with Sam. During a moment when you cannot see anything, we could essentially be in the shoes of the monsters while still following our protagonist, which would be a POV we have never explored (this would have been something new to contribute to the films). During this moment, it's loud and chaotic; with each passing second, the decibels get lower and lower because the monsters attack and destroy anything that makes a sound. This would have been an exciting way to showcase to our character that sounds affect the creatures. It felt cheap that Sam had to be "told" not to speak or make sounds. Day One should have been about the characters adapting to the new setting and how they must learn to survive these new predators that have invaded Earth.
While the story of Sam going to get pizza fits the theme of a small story set in a big world that a quiet place is known for, the marketing for this movie did not do that storyline justice. If you go over the trailers, they continue to show us this idea that we will be viewing a story of two unlucky characters who get caught in an unbelievably horrific position, and the whole time thinking, how will they escape? If you are someone like me who has watched the previous movies before seeing this one, you already know the monster's weakness; you know they can't swim, that higher frequency sounds can cause them grief and run away, and that loud noises can trump minor sounds. What I expected to see in this film was these survival tactics being learned by the two main characters.
There is a great scene in the film where our two characters, Sam and Eric, are in a tunnel being flowed down by a rapid stream of water, and the monster chases them on the ceiling. Brilliant tension, and I, for a moment, forgot that these monsters couldn't swim. As the water gets higher, the monster is caught in it and unfortunately drowns; right there, our characters learn the monsters cannot swim and must go to a boat on the water to escape. This way of showcasing should have been prominent throughout the entire movie. There is a scene when it starts raining, and this would be interesting because we have yet to see what happens with the monsters when environmental factors are considered. Two characters are out in the streets and come up to this metal roof where the noise of the rain trumps the characters' voices, which are kept at a low volume. Sam suddenly looks up at the roof, becomes really smart, and starts talking (at a low volume), saying their voice won't be heard because the rain would be louder, but all I could think was, how could she possibly know that? We have never been told that. These characters have yet to be shown that this is even remotely possible. Again, to me, it felt cheap. They told the audience instead of show. The first movie did this as well, but they at least showed this effect by having the little boy scream at the top of his lungs at the waterfall and us being positioned so far away that we could barely hear him over the waterfall. For the scene in the rain for Day One, what would have been better was if they had the monsters close by and either one of the characters made a mistake dropping something or pushing something over, making a sound, but the monsters don't notice it because it's drowned out by the rain. This, again, would've been a way to showcase how our characters could have a chance at survival against these creatures.
On top of that, learning they could talk while it was raining and decided to go find shelter was the loudest "HUH?" I had ever said out loud in a theatre. Again, I know the story centred around Sam wanting to get pizza as a last wish, but even then, to minimize the potential danger of being killed by the monsters, they should have walked the streets of New York during that weather!
Overall, the movie is crafted well with its storyline IF the marketing was better handled to showcase the story they told rather than the one we were expecting. The trailers showed a fast-paced, scary horror, which didn't fit the themes of the past two movies, where characters are going to be put in positions that help us (the audience) learn how the characters of a quiet place 1&2 learn the skills and tactics to survive 400 days after Day One. I was expecting something different, which excited me, but this movie was the same thing we had seen before, with cheap ways of telling us how they survive and not actually showing us.
Quick note... The first time my friend and I saw the group of monsters crawling around New York at terrifying speeds was extremely fun!
It was a solid movie, but the first two were miles ahead on rating scores because they knew what stories they wanted to tell and what audiences they wanted to attract. 6/10.
Just got home from the cinema and here’s the review, perfect timing
I am very excited to watch this as the trailers looked really good!
Haven't seen this one yet, but if the cat dies, I'll riot. If the humans die then who cares but not the cat!
I just watched the sequel and the prequel today and decided to revisit this video
Stupidly, Paramount announced that this movie is coming to streaming on July 30th.
You gonna do a review of the new Kevin Costner movie? Horizon: An American Saga, I'm interested in hearing your thoughts on it, especially since it seems there hasn't been a whole lot of marketing for it.
I just want one thing
If Eddie doesn’t die again I’m good.
Hey Sean you gonna review kinds of kindness?
We just saw Horizon instead, and entire family loved it! Epic Western movies are back!
I wanna see that one too, but picked Blue Lock instead. My buddies were more interested in that one 😂 Horizon looks great
I watched both yesterday and enjoyed both! ❤❤❤❤
Just saw horizon it was awesome
It's my favorite in the franchise. Not necessarily because I loved it but because I find the first 2 incredibly overrated, especially Part II
Interesting. I feel the same way about those two, so I wonder if this’ll be the best for me too
I find them overrated as well, and by the looks of it, I’m going to find this one overrated too 😒
@@NinthShinigamiI find them also very underwhelming films, not bad but so overhyped. This film succeeds in every way that the first didn't
it was alright, i honestly expected more but not a bad film, just not a film that added anything to the franchise
I think it’s better. And anyone who lived through 9/11 there is many emotional connects
Such a great movie!! A Quiet Place is 3 for 3!
Not as good as the first, but still pretty good! Lupita Nyong’o is a phenomenal actress and she is so beautiful. And (spoiler!!!) I’m so glad the cat lived, such a cute cat! 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
I saw the movie last night!! I thought it was amazing!!
Watch kalki
This is the rouge one to the franchise
Since there will be a 3rd with the family Emily blunt and the kids
Just watch Kalki in its original Telegu language instead man
How were newspapers being printed and distributed in the middle of all the mayhem? Did they use noiseless printing machines? Why did she keep having babies -- did she not read the warnings in the newspaper? This franchise is littered with inconsistencies, plot holes, and nails conveniently being wrong-side up for a convenient bare foot to come down on it. And are we to believe that those creatures are unable to hear a cat purring?
Can't wait to see this. Going tomorrow
But this is different danger. A cat
I should’ve watched either this or Horizon over Kalki 2898 AD 🤦♂️
Horizon is fuckin awesome the time management is great
Ehh kalki 2nd half is great than a quite place 3.
Horizon has 40% rotton tamato ratings
This box office will be very …. Quiet
I found this to be a great and very enjoyable prequel but a kinda wasted and disappointing as well. I thought leads were absolutely amazing, phenomenal performances and you see everything they're feeling. I liked how this was a much more character driven story and you were very invested in them. It had plenty of tense, frightening scenes and plenty of emotional, heartfelt moments.
But the tense and thrills weren't as good this time round. And the new york setting was different but not as chaotic as i thought it was gonna be. And we all thought we were gonna get more information about the aliens, why they're there, how they're they're and what they are exactly but it didn't do anything like that so it was kinda pointless in a way. Still enjoyed it though, I'd give it a 7/10 maybe a 7.5
I enjoyed better The Watchers by Ishana Shyamalan despite critics and people
Yea I liked that movie tbh
Micheal added more but paramount cut that out.
Going to have to disagree this time Sean. I didn’t enjoy it much, and it really didn’t feel like it expanded any of the A Quiet Place lore or worldbuilding. It felt like it dragged for an hour straight too. I’m giving it like a 4.8/10 myself.
This is was character building but I still didn’t connect with the character at all even with her having her dad die and I have recently lost my dad and I still didn’t connect with her. It was an hour and 30min in and I check the time in my phone it was just not enough
I loved this movie so much, I felt like it was about to drag but it didn't to me. I understand your complains tho, but this film is much more compelling then the first two in the woods, in my opinion. I also didn't see those in theatres tho so I may be byist
Wow 🤯. Were you in a bad mood before you watched it? Easily a 7.5/8 out of 10
@@Phillygreen easily a 4.8 for me. I’m never in a bad mood to watch a movie
It wasn’t directed by John Krasinski?
Nope and I think that’s why it didn’t hit well
@@ciara9930 But I wonder why. I mean, he can make movies.
No he chose to do IF over it
Pls review kalki 2898AD .The pinnacle of Indian cinema 🔥🔥❤️
Kinda disappointed to be honest, still good just not as good as I expected
I noticed that the aliens were eating something. I was wondering what it was and so far no one mentions it. Maybe I was seeing things.
Exactly the cat licked it and then they started eating it as well and nothing explained at all I thought maybe the monsters eggs but nope it didn’t show anything else
@@ciara9930 I thought it was an egg as well. So far it looks like they communicate with each other. I’m glad I am not the only one who noticed it
Pleasant review...
And its N'yongo.... a long "O" at the end. Not Lupita N'yongA. ;)
Be well.
Also, kudos for not giving away details concerning Lupita's 'situation' which I was already hit with on an alleged "non-spoiler" channel earlier. I checked a few more with a "non-spoiler" review caption that ALSO revealed it.
So disrespectful.
I saw it last night and I was pretty disappointed. At the end of the day is just was pretty unforgettable. The story was just so thin.
Isn't that a bit paradoxical?
@@joeyk107 lol. Forgettable.
Absolutely nothing happens in the movie besides them surviving like 10 attacks
More like 3
It’s closer to 10
It's Secretly Based on Revelation 9:10
I absolutely loved it. All about it
This movie felt like fan fiction. Miss
The worlds most well behaved and silent cat... very unrealistic and cringe.. cats are pretty fucking vocal especially in a traumatic situation like threatens its wel being and that of those who feed it.. it would have hissed and scowled at the creatures at every given moment... and it would have gone ballistic in the water... come on people,, the cat ruined the realistic impact of the movie
DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY!!!
Me and my friend went to go see this last night, and whenever there was a silent scene, we started drastically munching on popcorn and slurping our drinks, and a guy in front of this typed FU on his phone and held it up at us. I don’t think I’ve ever had such a hard time trying to not laugh.
You're not funny for doing that, you just a waste of oxygen
I didn't quite love it but it's very good definitely the weakest of the quiet place movies though
Just got out of the theater, gotta say… worst plot I think I’ve ever seen, it’s literally just about getting pizza. The characters weren’t interesting. They never explained how they figured out all the stuff about the monsters, like how they can’t swim, or that talking by rain is fine. If you liked, that’s good, but personally I did not enjoy it.
If you think it was just about getting pizza then you majorly missed the point
@@toxic1strike167 I know it was about her wanting to go home, or something like that. I don’t know I just didn’t enjoy the movie, but if you did, that’s great
@@themostirrelevantchannelon9189 it was more about her grief for her dad and that feeling leading toward her existentialism toward her own approaching death. I got a lot out of it but I respect that fact that you didn’t as well
They are pushing heavily inclusion on any possible way, even when not needed, so obvious in this movie.
Aside of that, very lame movie and overrated critics.
Just few points;
1. Lady goes out to walk her cat to pizza place after initial attack, even she doesn't know absolutely anything about those monesters, aside she shouldn't make any noise. Maybe they could see her, smell her, feel vibrations, heat.. but no, she simply walks out.
2. Bunch of people meet at avenue and starts to walk towards harbor, just like that and suddenly no one is concerned about noise.
3. Where are other animals, such as dogs, birds, doubt they were all killed first ?
4. If monsters follow sound and choppers, couldn't they simply lure them towards one place and nuke them or towards some dam to water them ?
All you need is one chopper, 80s playlist and lure them wherever you want.
2/3 of movie is lame "try to know me" story. Better they focused on escaping out of city with more monster hunting scenes.
And you americans are so VERY loud and talk all the time ...
Its not that good
Sean, cut the BS. This movie didn't offer anything new, it was boring, horrible writing, stupid plot. You are gaslighting your audience.
This is the best they could do?
Stop being a paid shill
It was shit. Not as good as the first and second one at all. I'm still looking forward to Part 3 next year regardless
It was decent not “good”
Felt pretty forgettable and I didn’t like the cliche with the UK and black girl being strangers then trying to friends felt too familiar
6/10 would never watch again tho
@@Man_in_a_Gucci_Suit totally agree. There wasn't enough explanation or information as to how they found out that they needed to stay silent. It was just an immediate announcement without research or findings. The creatures arrived without warning, so the people wouldn't know instantly to be quiet. There was just too much missing and it was too slow and dull and boring.
@@benbergin538 well I mean naturally some people would scream their heads off and die
But some people when they get scared freeze up and don’t make any noise so I do in that sense find it reasonable the people that naturally freeze up instead of scream survive
Now the scene with hundreds of people walking downtown at one time made no sense if they all knew to stay quiet it’s common sense out of hundreds of people someone would make a sound that scene was unrealistic and stupid
There was infected people with bloodshot eyes on the dock in part 2, which was never explained in this movie
Most disappointing film of 2024
No it wasn t it was amazing I m seeing it two more times
I wasn’t disappointed cause I knew deep down it was going to be bad
@@taran- I didn’t hate it, but I didn’t love it as much as I thought I was going to
Nah
I agree.
Awful movie
This slog of a movie SUCKED!!
"8 out of 10"??? You have got to be kidding? There's nothing new here. The most interesting thing would've been showing how the people gradually learned to be silent, but we got none of that.
She gets knocked unconscious for probably less than an hour and when she comes to, everyone knows that you must remain silent to survive. Exactly as in the other two movies.
What a hopeless "reviewer". He just expects us to pay our cash because it's a new movie in the franchise.
No wonder he wears a Batman T-shirt. How's that franchise going???
Damn you really are weird
Pathetic review and a very disappointing movie. You once again don't get to see the learning curve for the humans about the necessity to remain silent to survive, because she is knocked unconscious and when she come to, everyone is amazingly up to speed with it? Just like '28 Days Later', 'The Walking Dead' etc
Very lazy writing. 👎🏻
There isn't much of a "learning curve." The people who instinctively thought "stay quiet" are the only people who are left alive after the initial panic. Anybody who screamed or made any major noise were all wiped out almost instantly.
You're weird
woke garbage
