Stanley Tucci deserves so much better then this Quiet Place knock off.
So when a cave system is breached and ends up releasing a breed of creature that attacks in a way similar to bats and any noise and they kill.
It starts promising but the main characters make stupid decisions and you start to loose interest.
The ending is very disappointing and it just fails to deliver a satisfactory end in its 90 min runtime.
Also the scene with the woodchipper is so annoying.

Watch a Quiet Place instead.

A good, tense thriller of a film

A Quiet Place is a tame horror film where monsters roam the world and will attack anything that makes a noise. Why they do this is never explained, but that suits me fine. The film follows a family trying to survive in this world, who have learned to live in almost complete silence and live off the land. I was worried in the first few minutes that it was going to be almost complete silence, but thankfully it wasn't. An interesting twist was that one of the family's children is deaf so the family can already communicate in sign language.
There are moments of true edge of the seat suspense, when someone has accidentally made a noise and they just have to wait for the inevitable attack. And there are elements where we know something is going to happen and you are waiting for it (the nail for example).
One thing that bugged me is that these creatures can apparently hear a pin drop from miles away but can't hear breathe or a heartbeat from mere feet? Hmmm. Regardless, this was an interesting concept and, somewhat unlike Bird Box, was well delivered.
Well acted throughout.
