Smartorhypo Highly Overrated But Still Good

ScoobyMint Disappointment for a huge fan!

Grimossfer Clever and entertaining enough to recommend even to members of the 1%

FrogGlace In other words,this film is a surreal ride.

annoyingnome-89321 I think this film has destroyed the last bit of faith I had in humanity. Not because any shred of logic in the film is completely dispensed with, but because -- according to the ratings on this site -- it is regarded as one of the greatest horrors of all time. Is this a joke? Even B-movies generally contain some semblance of a story or some attempt at character development. And as for the plot holes... this thing is holier than Zeus himself!Seriously, I don't know how to illustrate this without giving away spoilers, but the basic idea is that you have these (presumably alien) creatures that are so sensitive to sound they can hear you drop an item inside your house when they are over a mile away. (Yet they don't use echolocation. Hmm...) Even though they're blind, they've wiped out the world. (Because apparently no one ever thought about creating diversions or setting traps.)Good time to get pregnant and have a baby, yes? (Don't worry though, if you decide to give birth *three feet away from one* it probably won't hear you... or the baby!)I could write a VERY long list of stupid inconsistencies, flat out deranged decisions, and plot holes riddled throughout the movie. But my issue isn't really with the movie. There are terrible films (like this) out there and I normally just shrug it off and get on with my day. It's just the fact that this is currently rated higher than many classic films, and it leaves me wondering how our species is going to survive much longer with this level of complete asininity.Just a tip for the logically challenged: Just because the filmmakers are able to mute the soundtrack whenever they please, it doesn't mean that humans can realistically run (yes, run!) across wooden boards, over crunchy leaves, through thick fields and foliage, climb metal ladders, etc, without making even the slightest sound.

pixiegirl44 I'm not sure what movie some people saw going by their negative reviews but it wasn't this one. A Quiet Place is a tense and artfully shot movie that makes full use of sounds to crank up the tension. With barely any dialogue that's a great feat. The acting is top notch and the fear on the faces of the actors really does seem real. Yes, there are plot holes but in a movie where you have to suspend your disbelief, I find there are always plot holes. I enjoyed it a lot and look forward to the sequel.

getani I generally don't write reviews positive or negative. But this one really forced me to. I am utter disgusted with the entire thing this movie had. The whole premise is baseless, there are absolutely senseless things that happen throughout. You are hounded by creatures who hunt by sound and you plan to have a baby in the middle of all this. Give me a break!IMDB ratings are being rigged big time. Worst of all there I read lot of intellectual masturbation about the unerlying theme of the film as if it is akin to 'The Matrix'. A similar theme has been covered in a far better scientific and logical way in 'Pitch Black'.

keremerdem-95110 How and where did these creatures came from? Still an interesting film though.
