A Quiet Place: Day One

5/10

This film series winds me up. The first was original, a bit clever.
The second cringe
This one is just annoying, another character story, which I'm bored of frankly, the stupidity of the characters, the inconsistent "alien mechanics"
The film answers nothing substantial to the aliens....
It's utterly predictable, scene for scene.
I lost count of how many face palms I did. Cliché predictable guff..


And.
...the next person will love it... It's gonna be complete marmite.


get all those Blackhawks ah64s and play loud music hover 30 feet over the river and chaingun the crap out of them. It's half in jests but I'd rather have seen that or 5 mins of some military posturing instead of a cliché cancer puppetshow

The stupidity of the characters is one of the reasons these types of films i used to love are now just plain crap.

I love old horror where they are like that on purpose, but the blatant smooth brain activities in films these days just grinds my little willy.

Either way, I'll watch it, then quietly be annoyed.

What a rubbish film, there was no need for this. The woman was an utter moron, yes there's aliens that kill you in 1 strike, but you know what, let me get pizza.

The guy, oh I'm surrounded by aliens, but let me climb up and get the cat.

And I forgot the actor's name, who killed that guy on the roof, he turns around and his son wasn't there, and thats it we only see them at the end. They could have made it, he kills the guy on purpose and his son watched it.

Son much more idiocy in this. What did they exactly establish in day one?
 
This movie is completely pointless; it’s just filler and doesn’t provide any new information.

I was hoping it would focus more on the monsters—explaining how, where, and why they exist—but instead, it goes off on a boring side quest, treating the monsters as mere inconveniences.
 
I really like the IP, but this one was definitely a disappointment. There wasn't one character in it that I liked and the action was rubbish.
 
After finally watching this I didn't go thinking it would be any good after having seen the trailers for a few month before films at cinema, stick to that thinking. This felt more like what they do with TV shows where they can't get their own original story done so they bolt it into another successful franchise.

You could quite easily change the name from A Quiet Place and this would have been it's own generic alien invasion flick.
 
Absolutely atrocious film. I don't think I've ever seen a series of films with so so so many gaping massive plot holes. Everyone in these films is DUMB beyond belief. The monsters are about as scary as a wet fart. The plots are STUPID.

Going for pizza? LOL.

Monsters swarm towards military helicopters, but they don't think to coral them. LOL.

People naturally flock to places with no natural sound, so they have to be quiet.

The military coral survivors up to make them nice tasty alien treats.

I didn't think it could get any dumber than QP1, but oh my god was I wrong.

I enjoyed it but the setting in New York was wasted, and they should have made a better effort overall.

Djimon Hounsou, I wish had a better role in this. He is such an awesome actor and was wasted. Lead actress was brilliant and did her role superbly, as did the secondary lead oh and the cat Frodo (Lotr references!).

I always wanted to see the downfall of the big cities ever since the first film came out. Instead we get a blackout and everyone in NY knows that they need be quiet etc. We don't really see a Day One, and NY was absolutely wasted. Nothing new is learnt barring a scene where the cat is high up on a rail... and bang, we're immediately back home before truly learning anything. Whilst it was enjoyable to watch with the great audio, it was also frustrating as the film could have touched upon so much more.

I totally agree. It reminded me of "Fear the Walking Dead". That also promised the downfall but jumped passed it as quickly as possible.
Apocalypse ***k teasing.

This. What an absolute turd of a film.
 
Not seen the other 2 so was interested to see how this does in explaining how things happened as a starting point. So basically rocks fall from outer space and presumably all these creatures are riding them like surfboards, somehow survive flying in through the atmosphere, hitting the earth at who knows how many mph, they then dismount then go around killing people.

k....

Part 1 was good
 
Thought the film was average at best.

No problem with a dying woman wanting Pizza from her (I assume) Dad's old restaurant (based on the photo she was looking at) before she kicks the bucket though, it's as good as any other plot device.
