I thought it was a good movie, the acting overall was great, the cinematography and set pieces were great, but I feel like this film needed an extra 40 mins to flesh out the charecters and story more, as I didnt really feel much connection with them.

You also worry about each character, especially after that incident at the very beginning of the first part. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Disturbing,terrifying and a awesome sequel!
The music and the story was brilliant and the characters were great, the origin felt like a glimpse should've been a full-fledge sequence of how all happened. the screenplay and the flow of movie was smooth and the fast pacing was thrilling, the silence scenes were terrifying and the monsters and sound cat and mouse game with it all the situation it was edge of the seat experience, The starting glimpse of how it started right from it the continuation of 1st part. the intro to cilian's character and the whole quest of finding the marked place in map at first then afterwards with the radio song having the hints of habitable environment after finding it the girls questing alone and the train scene was horror specially the jump scare of crows and monster kill it was awesome,then the 3 teams splits of kid with boy and mother alone and the cilian's and girl then the situation occurs with monster to all at once the tension building was literally awesome,the oxygen scene and the fire alarm scene it was Amazing and the boat scene was surprising and then the twist as per monster can't swim then the island reaching of two only just to know there was a monster inside and the whole mayhem at last with it at the another monster fight in bunker with all 3 charcters in it it and girl reaching radio it was gripping and then the end with girl and boy killing monster at same time it was hella satisfying,Overall it was not quite 1st part's level and the proper origin story was needed but it was short and well stuructured and a Awesomly thrillingly Great Movie!

I enjoyed the idea of being silent but there are some weird cases when something should make a noise but due to plot conveniences doesn't (Rusty doors dont make noise when opened saay whaaat?)

LesLa suite directe du premier film… mais sans l’effet de surprise et sans l’unité de lieu qui le caractérisait puisque cette fois-ci, nos survivants vont voir si l’herbe n’est pas plus verte ailleurs… ou du moins… moins dangereuse ! Les créatures très vindicatives sont en effet toujours en patrouille et n’aiment -toujours- pas le moindre bruit… je suis bien d’accord avec elles et c’est exactement ce qu’il nous faudrait pour claquer le beignet des jeunes cons qui font du bruit à toute heure !

Certes, c’est un peu brutal et expéditif mais que voulez-vous… En tout cas, malgré (comme dans le premier) quelques éléments de scénario qui font tiquer, le rythme est dans l’ensemble sensiblement meilleur et l’on ne s’ennuie pas un instant. La réalisation est très solide (claire et efficace) et les effets spéciaux toujours convaincants.

Je regrette un peu que la -toujours- si jolie Emily n’ait pas vraiment le rôle le plus important dans cette suite, loin de là même… mais bon, on fait avec. On sent bien que c’est ce maudit polichinelle qui pose problème (cette manie qu’elles ont de se mettre à pondre, ces gonzesses, y compris en plein monde post-apocalyptique, c’est dingue…) même s’il sert évidemment de prétexte à bien des évènements…

A part ça, rien de vraiment nouveau si je puis dire, notamment la conclusion très similaire au premier film… on nous ressert carrément la même chose à dire vrai ! Cela dit, ça reste tout à fait divertissant… mais il ne faudrait pas un numéro 3 parce que ça tournerait vraiment en rond, tout ce bazar !

I think that the tension that will be killed if you do not keep quiet will be the maximum value in the previous work, but I think that the tension in the previous work will be alleviated if there are no new elements in the second work.
As long as it is revealed that the weakness of the creature is howling, if there is no other factor, the prediction of the story itself will be valid, and that prediction will ease the tension.

The first movie took an intriguing premise and delivered an effective, if slightly unevenly paced horror movie. This sequel certainly ups the pace, but in the process it tries to fit a little too much into an hour and a half with many ideas being underdeveloped leading to a rather abrupt ending. Despite these issues the formula still makes for a relatively entertaining watch with a number of very effective and tense scenes, and it seems to set things up for a third movie to end the trilogy.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The movie might be quite silent, but I certainly wasn't while watching it. Rarely have I found myself be so annoyed with the characters in a movie. The boy is just a useless wimp who can't even commit to the simplest tasks. And he screams - a lot! You might argue that most people would, if they had a bear-trap clamp up around their foot. But I would counter-argue that if the life of your entire family was on the line when it happened, you would at least try to keep the screaming to a minimum. But noooo - this guys screams from the top of his lungs for as long as he can until someone finally shuts him up.

And a baby in a box with an oxygen mask? What the hell!? I realize that the baby was probably a carry-over "character" from the previous movie (which I haven't seen). But believing they survived for several hundred days out and about with a baby? No... Unless they kept the baby in the box 99% of the time, which is just not something I want to think about. It's a friggin' coffin!

But i digress. I wish the movie did something to explain the monsters or their constant need to kill things that make noise for seemingly no reason other than just to terminate other lifeforms.
And why can they jump around like crazy like acrobats, but still not see moving targets? Nothing makes sense. It seems to me like they are able to see very well the world around them. But they can't detect moving lifeforms unless they make noise? I don't buy it. It's a paper-thin premise and I am too logically thinking to do a complete suspension of disbelief.

The only cool thing about this movie is the girl and "new dad". And somewhat intelligent editing that lines up several shots to synchronize the stuff that moves the plot forward.

The last thing I have to complain about, is the "evil other humans" they meet at the dock. Why are they evil? What do they gain by attacking "new dad" and girl? NOTHING! There's no reason other than them "looking evil" so they must be maniacs. Well, in that case, they probably wouldn't have survived that long, right?

Ugh... What a horribly plain movie.

As a huge fan of the first film, it being my number 1 film of the year it came out, naturally I was ecstatic to get the chance to finally see this in the theater. As of writing this, I have seen this film twice in the cinema.

Once on a big XD screen and again on a regular sized screen. Both times I was 100% enthralled and taken into the story-telling. Prior to both viewings, i rewatched the first film and I have to say - it’s such a perfect follow up. And I even think, for me, I might even like it a little bit more. I think Part 2 does for A Quiet Place what Empire Strikes Back did for Star Wars. Sure, you need that first film. Without that, some of the emotional elements might not work as well, but this film follows through so brilliantly until it’s conclusion which leaves you hanging on hoping that there is more to come.

I really hope there is a part 3 on its way. By far my favorite film of 2021 so far. I highly recommend watching it/these movies.

When a sequel was announced, I wasn't remotely surprised and was also thrilled about it.A Quiet Place was the most surprising hit in 2018. It gave us something refreshingly new in the horror franchise and it was best of all, a great movie. When a sequel was announced, I wasn't remotely surprised and was also thrilled about it. The premise is "Following the deadly events at home, the Abbott family must now face the terrors of the outside world as they continue their fight for survival in silence. Forced to venture into the unknown, they quickly realize that the creatures that hunt by sound are not the only threats that lurk beyond the sand path". So does the sequel live up to the first movie?

Firstly, the returning actors Emily Blunt, Millicent Simmonds and Noah Jupe are still great in their roles as the Abbott family. Special praise to Noah as there is a scene where he gets hurt and his acting made it seem like he was in actual pain. Their characters also have great character evolution from the first movie. Evelyn Abbott (Emily Blunt) goes from the mother in distress to being the one who has to lead their family. Regan Abbott (Millicent Simmond) now embodies the heroism that her father had and is more forward to helping others. Marcus Abbott (Noah Jupe) is an interesting one as he was always a more frightened character in the first movie and part 2 seems to become more fearful due to the loss of his father. He does have an arc in this movie and it is very satisfying to watch him transform. Cillian Murphy is the newest addition and he is great. He is the opposite of Lee Abbott (John Krasinski) as he plays someone who is a hardened survivor who has little hope, but not zero, for the world. Cillian conveys this pained character perfectly and is a great new protagonist for the sequel.

Additionally, everything else I loved from the first movie is also here. The tension in each set piece is here, the great sound design is here, the effective use of the music score is here, the use of visual storytelling is here, the emphasis on characters and some great monster action is also here. A Quiet Place Part 2 also has an amazing introduction scene that might be one of the best starts to a movie I've seen in a long time. What this sequel does new is that it starts expanding more of the world-building as we see more of the outside world. I like that we get scenes showing day 1 of when the monsters came and I also like that we get to see more different survivors in this new world. If I do have to force myself for some flaws then one would be that it feels a lot less scary than the first movie. While a lot of the monster action in the first movie was in closed and claustrophobic areas, here it is in more open areas which reduces a lot of the scare. There is also something that happens midway which results in two different storylines and perspectives. One perspective is more story focused and the more interesting one while the other is just there to give the other characters a monster set piece. It results in less plot cohesion compared to the first movie. There is also a problem from the first movie that is still here which is some characters still do dumb things. It's not a typical horror movie dumb decision but it can annoy you a bit. There are also some silly things in the plot if you think about it too hard so you got to suspend your belief a little to enjoy the movie. Another small problem I have is the VERY ABRUPT ending. It felt like there should have been at least 5 more minutes of scenes after to give a more satisfying ending. The first movie had an ending that left it open for a potential sequel but was a complete and satisfying ending that didn't need a sequel. Here the ending is a very blatant sequel hook that 100% warrants a sequel as that was not complete at all.

Overall, if you love the first movie then you are definitely going to like part II. Everything that I loved in the first movie is here. While it doesn't do a lot new or better than the 1st, it does the things that made it great in the first place and does it well. While it isn't as great as the first movie, none of the flaws stated take away from the experience. I thoroughly enjoyed A Quiet Place Part II and cannot wait for part 3 or any spinoffs being planned.

Using silence incredibly effectively is the name of the game...sometimes you can hear a pin drop, it's eery and masterfully done. The terror of not being able to make a sound really comes across. I also felt the character behaved like most people would in their situation and gave the movie a feeling of relatability. The ending was powerful and obviously left room for more... Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Meh. Nothing new really happens in this mediocre sequel. Still looks great and no issues with acting or directing, but the plot is a non-starter for me. If there's a third they should go much bigger, and this should have been the bridge to that. Instead we just get more of an epilogue to the first movie.


The deaf girl in this new world premise (not to mention the friction between her father in the first installment), is still stale to me. It's nonsensical that a deaf girl would be able to survive in a world with monsters that have super hearing. That was a plot hole for me in the first one. Along with that, this contrived conflict with her parents over the obvious disadvantage she has. I get the gist that there's a subtext about enabling people with limitations, but this is the worst one they could pick. Maybe a girl on the spectrum would have been better. That could have been an advantage to her in this world.

And why does every post-apocalyptic universe portray humanity as resorting to savages when the walls come down? There always seems to be more **** left than cool people? Walking Dead was the same. Maybe disasters weed all the **** out. And why didn't they just take the boats out? Instead of that elaborate trap. Seems like they would have to watch it all the time. That would explain why they looked so dirty.

I didn't get why the son decided to go exploring, what with an injury so bad his mother risked a pharmacy run either. Again, contrived just to set up the dual, "kids beat the monsters" ending.

A bit disappointing tbh. I went in with a lot of generosity from the first one, whose plot holes I was willing to overlook because the story was so good. It wore off quickly and I honestly got bored.

I still.look forward to more movies from John Krasinski, but I hope they're better than this.

I like the way they got Cillion Murphy's character in, but I'm not sure why he hadn't just sought out his friends.

Así a bote pronto, pese a no ser un gran consumidor del género, es de las mejores películas de terror que he visto, puede entrar fácilmente en mi top 5.
Distancia bastante de la primera parte, aunque mantiene su esencia, pero prima mucho más el diálogo, según yo.
Las actuaciones son bastante buenas, un gran salto de calidad con Cillian Murphy.
Y en cuanto a la trama, está bastante guay, quizás un poco forzada, más de cara al final, pero me gusta en todas sus partes, siendo eso, la conclusión, digamos, algo abrupta.
Cosas positivas: La tensión y cómo la miden, va muy al grano y no se va por los laureles, muy buen lenguaje cinematográfico y el reparto.
Cosas malas: Quizás hay alguna incoherencia en el guion, y el final es algo disparatado para lo que es el resto de la película.
Conclusión: Lo dicho, tendría que comprobarlo, pero quizás entre en mi top de terror, y para mí, ha superado a la primera, mucho más concisa, te cuenta lo que te tiene que contar, y ya. Recomendadísima.

It was entertaining enough, but it was way too close to the first one in pacing and doesn’t have the courage to bring any real closure to the story. You know, just incase it’s also a surprise hit. I can’t wait for part III, “A Quiet Place In Space Where It Doesn’t Matter If You Scream Because, Well No One Can Hear You…” There were some interesting parts to the story, but I could see plot turns coming. Everything was telegraphed this time. The worst part for me was the opening sequence. I just didn’t care what was happening “then” after having already watched the first movie. It’s mostly only there to setup an introduction to a new character and the more I thought about it the less I cared for the extra back story. It’s not as interesting as what’s happening “now.” That opening is also Shyamalan-esque in it’s film making wankoffery, i.e the way it’s shot to draw out the mundane so that we can remember what our actual moment to moment lives are like…while watching it represented on film. If you saw the first one and wouldn’t mind a little more of the same then you might enjoy this. I didn’t think that there was enough to get out of it personally so I can’t recommend it otherwise.

“Run!”

‘A Quiet Place: Part II’ is a solid follow up to the first movie, which is no easy task to do. Even though I did feel it was the exact same film as Part I, but this time with some new characters added to the cast. Although, in terms of character development, much stronger and expands on certain elements from the first movie.

But still, despite being called ‘A Quiet Place’ it wasn’t quite...well, quiet.

John Krasinski has shown great promise as a director from the first movie and with the sequel it goes to show it wasn’t a fluke. Krasinski has the craftsmanship of building tension with the payoff being incredibly satisfying.

He also knows how to work with actors effectively and get the best performances out of everyone. The amazing Emily Blunt is once again amazing. The two child stars Millicent Simmonds and Noah Jupe are both excellent with strong careers ahead of them. The new addition to the cast is Cillian Murphy, who is terrific as the deeply troubled old friend of Lee (Lee being John Krasinski’s character, just in case you didn’t know).

The sound work, like the first, is fantastic and heightens the little details. While the first movie focused more on silentness with the sound of a pin drop being the loudest thing ever in this “new world”. But this time the movie plays more into sound and the environment being noisier, hence where the sound work is front and centre. The cinematography looked beautiful and striking once again. So basically, everything on a technical level is superb.

However, I have my issues with the movie. The movie can be predictable at times, in terms of how certain scenes will play out and how things will be solved. With the genre being horror, it can be very annoying when the movie falls into old tropes. Such as characters making stupid or questionable decisions that narrative wise makes no sense, other than push the plot forward. That’s horror for you.

Also, a thing to note here, since the daughter is deaf, how does she know how much noise she is making? Like, if her footsteps are making noise or the doors or window, she pushes open. What if a door makes a creaking or squeaking sound? My bedroom door literally creeks and squeaks whenever I open or close the door, and the entire household can hear it, so imagine what that means for the “sound killing monsters” that’s around. So really, she’s at risk and shouldn’t be going out on her own.

Other than that, putting aside my issues, I still think this is a solid sequel that’s worth checking out. If you like the first one, then you’re going to like this one. If not, then I don’t know what to say to you. It’s up to you, I guess.

Overall rating: LOUD NOISES!

A Quiet Place Part II is a sequel that deserves the title ''A respectable sequel'' because it doesn't need to exaggerate anything that was introduced: monsters, survival and the curiosity of how people would deal with a quiet world.
It enlarges its universe in a subtle and bold way, presenting the big reason why the film decided to choose that specific surviving family from the first film.
The acting is something impressionable, with the deserved talent of how its actors manage to express such true reactions to the dangers presented.
The monster look continues with the same detail as the first film, but with several other camera games and more scene choreography before using CGI.
The soundtrack is neither intrusive nor tedious, it manages to provoke the tension that is mandatory in the film, and it helps to enhance various scenes.
The only drawback for me is the use of too many scenes where the person is saved at the last minute.
I understand it's to make the scene more tense and give us goosebumps, but when you use it several times, you can already know that those characters are going to be saved, even if they're just a second away from being killed.
That said, A Quiet Place Part II is a highly acclaimed sequel that is really worth having to wait until the third part of this trilogy.

Before the year 2000, implacable monsters most likely reflected our nightmare fear of cancer and/or AIDS. Since 2000, implacable monsters--in both movies and video games--now reflect our nightmare fear of soulless Capitalism; since 2000, doing its best every day:
- to destroy humanity, - to destroy the environment,
- to destroy Earth; or at least, turn it in to a prison planet.
Run-amuck Capitalism is the NEW monster whose name we dare not speak. The invisible elephant in the living room we dare not discuss for fear of "ruining everything."

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Pretty slow and boring really. Also hate the way the guy from the first film is made out to be some shining example of bravery and masculinity too. At one point poor Peaky Blinders gets told he's nothing like him. Yeah sure the guy was cool but let's not make other men feel emasculated when actually they're doing pretty well surviving and maybe he just doesn't wanna look after your noisy a!*es.
Blunt's daughter decides to go on some suicide mission without even asking or saying goodbye to her mum, that's nice. They lead a monster out to the island with them anyway and get everyone butchered. These films are so over hyped for what they are, in my opinion.

A Quiet Place was one of my favourite films of 2018. That movie is basically proof that John Krasinski can direct well. This movie just emphasizes that.
Performances- Emily Blunt is fascinating in this film. She is one of the best aspects of this entire movie. Millicent Simmons who plays Emily Blunt's daughter has also given off a really good performance. Cillian Murphy was also really good.
TENSION- Like the first film, this one too knows how to keep the viewers on the edge of their seats. The tension is present in this movie, from start to end. John Krasinski knows what to do with the tension in his films, and he knows what conflicts portrayed in his movies are most effective, and he utilizes them to the maximum. That's what makes him such a good director.
A WORTHY SEQUEL- This is a damn good sequel. One appreciable thing worth mentioning is that- it feels as though they pay more attention to the human characters in this movie. A bit more than the first one. Another reason why this is such a good sequel is- it doesn't just try to be bigger than the first one. As a matter of fact, it 'is' bigger than the first movie, but it doesn't put too much emphasiz on being bigger. It feels just about as real and simple as the first one. This movie also takes the first ten minutes or so- to tell us where these creatures come from. A lot of sequels don't necessarily give us that-origin story, but this one does. That's great.
We want more, John Krasinski- Yes! He has proven his talent as a director with two very intense, amazing horror films. I'm really looking forward to seeing more of his work. Not just in the 'Quiet Place' franchise, but in other stuff as well. The man clearly knows what he's doing- and he's good in it. So, yes. We want more, John Krasinski!
So, A Quiet Place Part Two is an amazing movie. It's fresh, intense and is a worthy sequel almost as good as the first one. Although the ending seemed a bit rushed up for me, I don't really have that many flaws with this movie. I highly recommend this film to you.

i liked the first. Plenty of spacious scenes that played with the absence of music score and let quiet suspense work the viewers.
Part II starts off good with a look into the origin of the arrival of the hunters. Story wise it moves slowly after that. We already established the characters with an introduction of Cillian Murphy whom i think carried most of this movie with a great performance.
With an hour and a half to bring the story forward, it walks slowly.
The kids in the movie do their upmost to make as much noise and mess as they can. They are ignorant and literally not that smart in their choices. Especially that kid. The deaf daughter gives zero F's and wanders out of her own.
Basically the movie establish little new in terms of a package to provide for a developing experience and ends pretty much in the same way as the first by rigging itself for a part 3 (apparently already confirmed by Krasinski)
Minor disappointed with this one, but still it maintains suspense like the first one.

Utterly average (below-average actually). A boring drag even at 90'.

Clearly a forced sequel. Clearly everyone has a soft-spot for Krasinski/Blunt couple, and their romantic movie-making getaways. I have no problem with that. Just do not rate this movie as if a masterpiece because they re cute together.

It really is amazing everyone (critics and audience) gave it 90%+. That's what baffles me. Astounding.

I recommend watching the movie to witness just how low we ve become with our standards culture-wise. 90%+ is essentially insane. Only children who have never seen any movies would seriously rate this 90%+. Just wow.

I would probably say the first film is slightly better than this. John Krasinski feels more comfortable behind the director and writers seat now because both have improved. The writing still isn’t fantastic but it’s slightly better than last time. However, Krasinski still fell into the trap of characters putting themselves into unnecessary danger but it felt worse this time. There is a train car scene with one of the main characters that serves no other purpose to the story than to put one of the characters in danger. At least in the first film there was a reason. Some of the decisions the island group characters make are really stupid to me and that island scene has a MASSIVE plot convenience involving a boat. The story this time took a two pronged approach with two plots going on at the same time and I appreciated it although was one was better than the other. The story following Cillain Murphy and Millicent Simmonds was much better than Emily Blunt’s. Every time we cut back to her character, the story came to a halt because her story really had nothing to do with the overall story. There was definitely a lot I liked though. Millicent Simmond’s performance has improved between the films greatly and Cillian Murphy was the best part of the movie. Krasinski did an excellent job relating him to the characters and incorporating him into the story. Emily Blunt did a good job as well. There is an action set piece flashback at the beginning that does a great job with tension and overall camerawork that I couldn’t take my eyes of the screen. All of the other action was creative especially the boat dock scene. I did like that the story got out more and focused on the rest of the world. A Quiet Place Part II went in the right direction story wise even if the film is still pretty mediocre. If you saw and liked the first one then check this out. Expand

putting in cilian murphy was quite a good move and this new role is refreshing for a usually clean shaven actor. even thro the dirt and beard, his portrayal shines thro. very tortured mysterious painful. not a fan but who can forget 'red eye', ínception'even in Dunkirk his role stuck in ur mind.
emily did not have a good run hear as she ran out of nails to step on. but the young boy was pretty good considering the complexity of his role battered with low confidence.
hopefully this is the end of the story. oh last thing ... no series pls.....unless u like to replace zombies with blind aliens

So it's up to you how you perceive this change. Some may be disappointed, because the charm of the first part, where there was often not much going on and it was mostly silent, is not so much here. On the one hand, some might find these scenes uninteresting to the point of being boring. As for whom I would say. Personally, although I enjoyed the first film, I wasn't one of the biggest fans of the silence where there was no talking at all and it was all about survival, so I'm glad when those scenes were replaced here with proper action that I really devoured. The CGI monsters look really good. On top of all that, it's still A Quiet Place after all, because there are still scenes where a character goes step by step and isn't allowed to make the slightest noise. Although there are significantly fewer of these scenes, they are of good quality and I'm only glad they added the action ones, which I enjoyed. I also praise the new character of Emmett, played here by Cillian Murphy, who we have already seen, for example, as Scarecrow from Christopher Nolan's Batman trilogy. The only catch for me here was the ending, which is in a similar style to the first film and simply gets you fired up for the next one and leaves you waiting a few years for the next installment. Otherwise a good film for me and a hilarious sequel that I recommend. Expand

John Krasinski continues the main themes about what we must endure for the people we love, how family sticks together and looks out for one another in the worst of times. His atmosphere is tense and you're always on the border of being anxious and being terrified. And enough can't be said about the children's acting, who are incredibly mature and effective in encapsulate how grave the stakes are in an apocalyptic world inhabited by murderous, near-indestructible aliens. Well done, Halpert. Well done. Expand

The set pieces are well thought out, utilizing a triptych of parallel action at times to keep things intense. The story progresses in a decently engaging fashion. I just didn't really feel moved or all that enthralled when things came to an unnecessarily abrupt and unsatisfying close. This thing's only 97 minutes long. You couldn't include at least a minute or two of falling action? No denouement? No nothing? I don't know. I guess this just might be one of those franchises that everyone else goes nuts for and I only regard as "pretty good." Expand

No cheap tricks or scare tactics, only true, nerve-wrecking suspense. Careful character development and a deeper story about family. I hope to see a Part 3 even though I’m not sure where it would go from here.

I remember 15 months ago I was eagerly anticipating the release of the sequel to the highly successful horror movie A Quiet Place written and directed by John Krasinski. Initially it was difficult to see how a sequel would work without just being a repeat of what we’ve seen before. I’ve seen enough horror movies to know that not all franchises benefit from mindless sequels just for the sake of money. After a long 15 months of waiting, lockdowns and more lockdowns I’m was finally able to sit in an actual cinema to see A Quiet Place Part II and I’m delighted to say that it’s a worthy sequel on par with its predecessor.

A Quiet Place Part II begins with a flashback sequence and then picks up immediately after the events of the first film, the Abbott family (Emily Blunt, Millicent Simmonds & Noah Jupe) must now continue their fight for survival in a world of silence. Forced to leave their home they must now journey into the unknown with the threat of the creatures that hunt by sound. By now we know the importance of silence in this film and how it’s used to build the tension. From the opening scene to the end credits you’ll be holding your breath, unable to relax as the tension builds. Everything from the score and the use of sound is effective in making you jump out of your skin. The frights just keep on coming and will keep you on the edge of your seat. Make no mistake this is the type of movie that cinemas thrive on. A Quiet Place Part II develops the characters from the first movie and throws in none other than Cillian Murphy to the cast. He gives a terrific performance and was a great choice to join the rest of the cast. It’s clear that A Quiet Place I & II are in the hands of someone who understands what makes a good horror movie. Great characters with a story so intense you’ll barely be able to breathe. The tension builds and builds to a third act that thankfully doesn’t fall apart. I did not expect the sequel to be this good and it’s looking very likely that a third movie is in the works and if there’s a good story and John Krasinski is directing then I’m totally onboard for A Quiet Place trilogy.

There’s really nothing like the feeling of watching a film in a cinema. It’s an experience I’ve greatly missed and online streaming sites can only do so much. Certain movies are just meant to be seen on the silver screen and A Quiet Place II is definitely one of them. Home viewing just wouldn’t be the same. So horror fans it’s time to get back to it if you haven’t already, enjoy the magic of cinema with a truly brilliant horror/thriller. Highly recommended.

The sequel, like is often the case, lacks the surprise of the original, while maintaining some of the suspense. It takes up after the first one with what’s left of their family (Emily Blunt, Millicent Simmonds, Noah Jupe) travelling outside their safe area to survive. This leads them to new people and new adventures, while still eluding the extremely lethal, blind aliens. Most of the quick frights come early, then things settle down into more predictable encounters. There’s still plenty of anxiety and the performances are effective, but the overall effect is not as riveting. Still, it’s most involving on the big screen. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Действие фильма происходит как продолжение событий, рассказанных в первой части. Эвелин, Риган и Маркус исследуют заброшенный город и встречают Эммета (Киллиан Мёрфи), который защищает от напавшего на них монстра. Затем все четверо идут в убежище для помощи остальным выжившим. Вскоре они узнают, что кроме монстров есть и другие существа…

Сиквел, если что, не имеет смысла смотреть без первого фильма. Но что бы там ни случилось в финале с героями, в «Тихом месте 2» они появляются вновь в изначальном составе. На удивление, вышло довольно таки крепкое продолжение. Динамика действия и повествования создаётся благодаря параллельному монтажу. В начале — между настоящим и прошлым, дальше — путём разделения героев на две пары: мать и сын, дочь и неожиданно появившийся сосед.

Красински повторяет маневрирование, которое ему чудно удавалось в оригинале, — достойный скример тут, скример там, нервирующее стрекотание ушастых чудовищ — которым здесь уделили чуть больше внимания и это только в плюс, любимый режиссёром параллельный монтаж и звенящая тишина, стоит Риган достать слуховой аппарат… и мы все с замиранием смотрим на большой экран. Поверьте, общая суматоха и ритмичность нисколько не портят картину, то в задушевных беседах кроется главная беда этого продолжения. Не хватает только гордо развивающегося целого американского флага, честно. Есть незначительные технические ляпы, без них видимо никуда.

Финал у второй части «Тихого места», как впрочем и у первого оригинального фильма, открытый. А значит, третья часть не за горами, всё зависит от сборов сиквела. Я наслышан, что у Красински есть множество идей для прямого продолжения, главное чтобы всё вышло интересно и логично. Скрещу пальцы!

This sequel continues the themes, tone and character developments for the family with the addition of Cillian Murphy's character who is also exceptional in this. The movie has tension but not quite on the level of scenes from the first movie. This movie has emotional moments, also not as deep as the first movie. But these scenes of tension and emotion are included and they are done fairly well. By far, Millicent and Cillian are the stand outs in this film. They both carry the emotion of the movie and have the most tense scenes. Overall, just a solid film. And to think a sequel for a horror movie is good comes a long way in film history. Recommend fully. Expand

Many of the critic reviews for this film focus on "craftmanship" or the fact it is a "post-pandemic" film.

This is because the general goodwill toward Krasinski along with the desire to get people in theaters causes critic reviews to downplay the fact this film is a significant disappointment. Without the novelty of the first film's premise, A Quiet Place Part II becomes another one of those sci-fi horror films where characters seem to lose all critical thinking skills and take unnecessarily dangerous, often downright stupid risks. One of those where you constantly find yourself asking, "Why did they *do* that?"

This is all the more striking when you consider the first film centered on characters using ingenuity and -wise- decision-making to stay alive. Now they seem to know they are in a horror movie where tension and jump-scares are expected and, well, a character's gotta do what a character's gotta do. The characters themselves are still appealing, except for the new addition who takes Krasinski's place as Pensive Bearded Man. He is given so little context that none of his actions make much sense at all. Krasinski also feels obliged to have some characters utter a few clunky, pandering Deep Thoughts. As an entertaining albeit overly solemn horror film, Part II delivers on the jump scares, tension, and pretty landscapes and cinematography. The first film established a relatable, strangely cozy world with some very specific parameters. By the end of that film, those parameters were already beginning to hem in the plot. In the second film, those parameters can't hold up past the pre-credits scene. It seems A Quiet Place is destined to become just another horror franchise.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Waited years for this movie, TOTAL DISAPPOINTMENT. They walk around in constant fear and death and all along they have the secret weapon and don't use it.

It's like watching Rambo get beat up and tortured and he has a loaded machine gun in his hands. I found myself thinking through out the whole movie, use it, use it, use the secret weapon. The story is all wrong, they could have gone a different path liberating from town to town and explored the looters and evil survivors angle further. This could have been a great time to bring back the father too, to lead them. Also The hidden message in the radio transmission why hidden? So the aliens don't know what it is? Why don't just broadcast words? We weren't told the aliens understood the language, they seem very primitive and very basic and savage.

I am so glad they saved it for the theaters instead of home streaming or selfishly pushing it during COVID. What a completely immersive, beautiful, emotionally and sensationally overwhelming film. It is a perfect continuation from the first film and might even be better (it is definitely at least equal, which is an amazing accomplishment in itself). Certain characters from the first are definitely missed, but Cillian Murphy and Djimon Hounsou are wonderful additions. This is, however, completely Millicent Simmonds film and I can't tell you how amazing it is to see not only positive disability representation, but an empowered, multi-dimensional female lead. Krasinski wrote an incredible character and cast an incredible actor. He didn't cheapen her at all like most big studio scifi/horror movies do by saddling her with a love interest or making her either overly weak/helpless or irrationally suddenly a superhuman killing machine. The final scene is so moving and complete with her character development. I would welcome a Part III or other movie in this universe, but if it ended here, I would be just as happy. Bravo to Krasinski, who proves himself to be a brilliant writer/director (and much more than a paper salesman), the entire fantastic cast, picture and sound editors, and cinematographer. I hope there is some awards love at the end of the year for all of the above, especially Millie, Krasinski, and those who did the sound mixing/editing. And 1000% this is a great Cillian movie! Expand

Additionally, Krasinski's way of highlighting key items and dialogue that become significant later on in the film are clear signs that story elements shall not go to waste with him as the director. Without the audience knowing it, certain objects in the environment introduce some traits of Cillian Murphy's character before the family realizes who he is. There are many times throughout A Quiet Place Part II that the immediate motive of a character is unknown, and the only way of finding out is to keep watching. The classic storytelling guideline: "Show, don't tell" comes to mind here a lot. However, it reasonable to argue that a few too many questions went unanswered. For example: in the process of running and hiding, why doesn't all that noise attract more attention from others? That aspect seems inconsistent with the sound sensitivity in Part I. Then, at the ending, only the immediate problems had been solved, but the credits roll before the emotional payoff. This series leaves you, again, with your own imagination of what happens next.
