Jaw-Dropping

Rating: 10/10 (23 July 2018)

An outstanding feature-film debut for John Krasinski. Bold moves taken by director and star Krasinski make this unique horror/thriller the masterpiece that it is.
From start to finish, this film had me on the edge of my seat, white-knuckled and anxious for what would happen next. This film's editing will have your heart pounding and it's brilliant sound editing/mixing will have you hearing your own heartbeat pound. Thum-thump, thum-thump.
This is a horror/thriller but it is focused solely on one family. Their chemistry and strong emotional connections are seen so beautifully on the big screen. Not many horror movies will also be tear-jerkers, yet A Quiet Place will have you emotionally in awe at the roll of the credits.
This film had me surprised and filled with joy knowing that Krasinski is just one of many more new generations of gifted filmmakers that will emerge to produce original great films such as this one.
Definitely was one to remember for years both in its scares and in its silence. 10/10.
