Even though I would probably still choose the first one over this sequel as to which I prefer, this felt like a seamless continuation and felt like an extension that was just as good as its predecessor. Well, I personally think that director John Krasinski came incredibly close to topping himself here.
#Watch a quiet place 2 movie#
Not that a sequel needs to be better, but when you have a movie that good, it's very hard to even make something that comes remotely close. It was one of my absolute favourite films of 2018 and even though the ending was sort of left open, I just thought every aspect of the filmmaking made for a stellar film. More than anything, I was actually quite nervous (even though deliriously excited) to see a sequel to A Quiet Place. And if so, is the purpose to wipe out all living things for a future alien invasion?Īll of which makes A Quiet Place Part III very compelling. They were already fully formed when they arrived so its more likely a spaceship that crash landed. They never eat their prey - just killing as many as they could. They then immediately go on a seek and destroy mission killing anything that makes a noise. The "sound-monsters" crash land in a big meteor, asteroid or spaceship. There is so much potential for world-building based on new info provided about the "monster invasion" in part two. New addition Cillian Murphy, the GOAT of Danny Boyle's apocalypses (28 Days Later and Sunshine) is a good replacement for Krasinski's character- similar but different - a survivor that's slowly losing it. Just like in the first movie, the younger brother was one dimensional and had a constant freaked out look like he was going to crap his pants at any second. And it puts a spotlight on the stupid decisions the teens make that puts everybody in jeopardy. Unfortunately, the drawback of having the first and third acts be non-stop action, the middle arc drags and feels like a slog. The budget was clearly increased significantly so we get many more of those scenes. In fact every scene that features an encounter with the "sound-monsters" is gripping and intense. The opening sequence once the "apocalypse" begins is just fantastic. 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. Check it out below.That was the biggest impression I had from the opening sequence of A Quiet Place 2.
It all culminates with a scene of Simmons' character starring down one of the aliens. We watch the start of the invasion by extra-terrestrial creatures with a hyperacute sense of hearing and are shown more suspenseful footage of new and previous characters.
The 30-second clip picks up on the first day of the invasion as we say in the trailer, but this time, we see Krasinski's perspective.
That is the case for why we know get to see John Krasinski in this new look of A Quiet Place Part II. For non-fans, it means they get plenty of awesome commercials. Overall, the trailer does an incredible job of showing a divergence from the first film with plenty of scare-packed action sequences.īut now, with the Super Bowl coming up, it's good news for football fans and non-fans alike. Next, we get our first look at the newest addition Cillian Murphy who appears to have a few tricks up his sleeves but may be harboring a dark secret. We get a lot more action and a lot more looks at the extra-terrestrials that terrorize the planet. We’re in the car with the family in a blood-thumping scene that shows us the first day of the invasion. The trailer picks up from the immediate aftermath of the first film. Before that, a hyper-suspenseful teaser showed much of the original cast including Emily Blunt, Noah Jupe and Millicent Simmons. 1, A Quiet Place Part II released an action-packed trailer that introduced us to some new characters in the universe.
