A Refreshing & Phenomenal achievement in genre film making

Rating: 9/10 (13 April 2018)

In an apocalyptic setting of near future, where most of Earth's human population has been almost wiped out by a race of sightless, vicious creatures of unknown origin. This creatures hunt their prey only by sound, as they got incredible hearing ability. And against this odd, the film starts with a family of 5 scavenging for daily supplies while communicating non-verbally through sign language. Within few minutes with an unexpected turn, you'll get to see what the consequence of making noise is, in this terrifying world of silence.
John Krasinski's A QUIET PLACE is a refreshing, phenomenal achievement in genre film making where SOUND & SILENCE played like a character in their own right through creating a chilling atmosphere from start to finish.
The cast delivered some amazing performances in their respective roles as their characters were forced to live life in a constant fear of making noise in the high possibility that seemingly unstoppable. Particularly, the stunning Emily Blunt shines in that 'water broke out' sequence remarkably. Kudos to her husband, the director & co-writer of this new masterpiece of Horror, John Krasinski for skillfully making such an effective narrative with rare moments of dialog. This is one of those kind of movies which proves that the great horror stories & films aren't always about guts & gore or jump scares, it's about the tale of human survival and the depth in its characters and the challenges in their relationship.
Glad to seen it in its first day-first show here in an almost empty theater where even the audience was like afraid to make a noise while watching the movie.
