A Quiet Place (4KUltra-HD + Blu-ray) [2018] [Region Free]

This film is terrible. There are more plot holes in it than holes in a second hand dart board. If you have any doubt just type in 'Plot holes in 'a quiet place' on google and you will see what I mean.The premise sounded Ok but in reality the way it is written just makes you sit there questioning everything they do or have done considering the premise. Are these people so stupid that they haven't been able to circumvent a severe weakness in their enemy.Nothing in this film is logical, the rules they create are constantly broken or avoided for the convenience of a badly written script.AVOID

Really baffled by the amount of good reviews this has! The acting was fantastic, and the basic premise was good, just a shame the film was, beginning to end, so full of truly terrible plot holes, it was just nonsensical. From the awful decision making by the characters, to the blindingly obvious weakness the creatures had that should have been figured out when they first appeared and way before the events of the film. If you can switch your brain off completely then it's enjoyable enough, but I kept getting distracted by how ludicrous it was. Disappointing.

What a wonderful movie. I had reservations about watching this, but I must say, that I was pleasantly surprised. A movie which doesn’t have much dialogue, needs to have a lot of other things going for it, and this one certainly does. Some absolutely marvellous moments more than compensate for the lack of a script, and the whole movie seethes tension and suspense. The acting is top notch and the creatures suitablely threatening. People have mentioned the “down beat “ ending, but I felt that it fitted perfectly, and gives the viewers hope that there could be a way to defeat the enemy. Beautifully made and the time flew watching this marvellous addition to the genre. Well worth watching again.

The premise is some kind of alien beings have invaded the earth but they conveniently only respond to sound so the first part of the film has Blunt, Krasinski and their young family only communicating via sign language. Unfortunately, this is excruciating to watch and goes on for literally half of the film except for a brief moment when Krasinski takes his son to a nearby waterfall and they have a conversation. There is no explanation of how this alien invasion happened or where everyone else is as the film is basically nonsense and low budget so they couldn't afford to get more than a few more bit part actors involved. Also, apparently, Krasinski wrote this dire garbage so he should seriously think about giving up writing for good if not acting. The aliens are not scary at all and mainly shown in brief rushed sequences and you can't help but wish you'd watched this film in the same manner on fast forward. Avoid.

A QUIET PLACE turns a standard sci fi horror plot into something unique through the use of the need to be silently stealthy, this allows the constant buildup of tension and an effective use of Jump scares.But the main theme is around the survival of a family unit and it’s good to see a horror based so effectively around this concept. The acting is superb and much of the dialogue is in sign language, add this with many small touches such as the need to walk barefoot to prevent noise or play board games on soft felt to prevent being heard really adds to the desperate atmosphere which permeates the whole movie!However, the film isn’t perfect, in the sense, if you strip away the touches and leave the plot bare , you’ll find an average movie which has been done multiple times before, add this with some odd decisions, such as the safety of running water ( why not camp by streams? Seems pretty obvious) or the fact I’m sure the military and a few mega phones could have done some considerable damage to these * monsters * then you’ll find the veneer of perfection quickly disappear. But if you ignore these discrepancies within the film you’ll find yourself immersed in a great movie.

The BRD slipcase is covered wth 5-star ratings and “A masterpiece that will scare for generations”. Ignore all that baloney. What will scare you is how the film actually got made and even more scary that they are doing another. Whilst it contains a decent idea there are a number of important logical inconsistencies that undermine the narrative. The more I think about those the more it makes me wonder if the writer(s) deliberately took an exploitative line and were fully aware of what they were doing - the nail in the step for example. Writers of this type of film do allow characters to become stressed, tired and emotional so when those characters do stupid things they hope we go along with it and are sympathetic. So beware, there is lot of stupid in this film. If you buy this and watch it you will have many questions- e.g. if creatures have sharp metal shredding claws that easily slice open a large water tower tank why don’t the claws work on a car roof? I felt duped and I can only hope all concerned with this have learned from their mistakes and won’t do it again.

i loved it ,loved the quiet build up and some genuinely tense moments .ending could have been better

I looked forward to this, given the cast and the intriguing trailer. It started slow paced which I didn't mind since it seemed like it was slowly but surely building up to scary mayhem. Only that it didn't.I'm easily scared in horror films, but there were no good jumpy bits or any truly scary scenes. It just sort of fizzled out after the build up. If you're after a quiet film with aliens and a baby in a box, go for this. If you want a scary horror film, keep looking.
