Review of A Quiet Place (2018) by Tvjerry — 16 Apr 2018

Vicious sci-fi "invaders" are blind and hunt their prey by sound, so that means this family must live their rural lives in fearful silence. Thanks to John Krasinski (who directed and costars with his wife Emily Blunt), this is an intelligent suspense film.

There are no cheap jump scares or bloody violence, just a steady nerve-racking level of anxiety that keeps building. Much of this credit goes to Krasiniski, who not only knows how to masterfully create tension, but has coaxed exceptional performances from the cast.

They're not just good at being scared, but can truly convey true emotions. This is exceptional storytelling that's quietly riveting.
