A Quiet Place
Synopsis: A family lives an isolated existence in utter silence, for fear of an unknown threat that follows and attacks at any sound.
Genre: Horror/Thriller (R-rated)
Director: John Krasinski
Starring: Emily Blunt, John Krasinski, Noah Jupe
So this is John Krasinski's third feature film after The Hollars & Brief Interviews with Hideous Men, which both received mixed reviews. I did hear about A Quiet Place before today, but it wasn't really on my radar. That changed today, when the reviews started to come in. The reviews are good, like extremely good. Here's an overview of the reviews so far:
"A Quiet Place is bold and inventive with top-notch performances, breathtaking storytelling and intensity; it is the must-see film of the fest and even the year." - 9.5/10, We Live Entertainment
"One of the most inventive, emotional, and terrifying films I've seen." - 5/5, Dread Central
"John Krasinki’s Monster Movie is a Riveting, Near-Silent Thriller." - B+, Indiewire
"A terrifying thriller with a surprisingly warm heart. If only it were this fun being terrified in real life." - Rave review, Hollywood Reporter
"A Quiet Place is certainly Krasinski’s best film as a director, and a sure-fire crowd pleaser that is one of the most fun movies I’ve seen in some time. It’s fresh, well executed, beautifully shot, powerfully acted, and an extremely satisfying thriller." - 8.5/10, 411Mania
"Easily the best monster movie since the arrival of Cloverfield in 2008, A Quiet Place is an absolute stunner that just fires on every cylinder." - 4.5/5, Daily Dead
"A Quiet Place is a tautly original genre-bending exercise, technically sleek and accomplished, with some vivid, scary moments, though it’s a little too in love with the stoned logic of its own premise." - Variety
These are pretty much the only reviews so far, but I expect many more reviews soon. Are you excited for A Quiet Place?
