Un Lugar En Silencio: Día Uno

I liked the movie for the most part. Lots of jump scares which is how I like my scary movies.

The actors were great . The actress that played sam was absolutely beautiful in her role. When she was frightened ,I was frightened ,when she was in pain I felt empathy. I liked the first Quiet place for it's absolute silence . Obviously there was more noise in this one but the silence was perfectly utilized.

Now for the best part. The cat Frodo. Played by two cats and NO CGI (which makes the cat acting even more incredible) Frodo kept my attention throughout the movie. I wish a cat could win best supporting actor because Frodo stole the show.

This movie wasn't bad but it could have been called Quiet Place 3. This movie should have focused more on the aliens, the why, where and how of them coming. Even how they were able to determine the mode of hunting and such frim the aliens. To me things like that would be a better prequel.

I did really like the emotional aspect that was written into the story but it began to feel that story line became more the focus as the movie went on and the aliens became the after thought.

The special effects were great. The alien design was same as before stellar. I think the movie would have benefited from being more focused on the aliens and building up to the fight against them.

Coming into A Quiet Place: Day One, you would assume that it would revolve around the history of how ' this thing' occurs and how it relate to the present day. Apparently not. This film pretty much an unnecessary spin-off of the first film.

Some cool scenes with decent visual and sound, has weird pacing, some of the humors are cringe, the heartfelt moments just doesn't do it for me. I like Joseph Quinn as a person, but in some scenes, his acting is kind of awkward.

Overall, it's an okay sci-fi horror with barely-exists-generic plot. Nothing groundbreaking, but still somewhat fun.

6/10.

Generic, but at least the cat is cute.

The plot is non-existent. The characters are bland and they rely too much on the monsters to create tension. You become desensitized to the monsters quickly and maybe you will start feeling sleepy like I did. Come to think of it, the monsters kinda look a little goofy with their watermelon heads.

The action is formulaic and very derivative. Make some noise. Monster appears. Hide from monster. Maybe someone dies, maybe no one dies. Rinse and repeat. Combined with a simple plot and it is a snooze-fest.

I am a big fan of the first film and this one falls short of it in nearly every aspect. I would not recommend this film to fans of the series.

Unexpectedly, quite dull.

'A Quiet Place: Day One' builds some tension well and features very good sound design, though the story and its characters are a disappointment. I have no issues with Lupita Nyong'o and Joseph Quinn, they try, but Sam and Eric are written quite boringly. I felt like we were missing some major character development for both.

The plot is rather underwhelming. There is some additional meaning in there admittedly, but it's literally one lame objective and then the standard styled exit. It felt whilst watching that the movie had barely any flesh on its bones. The cat stuff is cute, though the obvious lack of true jeopardy for Frodo even hampers that from hitting for real.

There is at least a pleasing use of Nina Simone's Feeling Good. Overall, however, this left me feeling extremely meh, unfortunately. I am, it is worth noting, someone who doesn't love the original two movies; though I did like the first flick just about enough.
