It's hard to pin down exactly the ups and downs of "A Quiet Place".
If you've seen Children of Men or The Road, then it's a similar overall vibe. The idea is great, there's no question. The execution is so so.
They do an excellent job creating a tense atmosphere, and the cast does a good enough job. Most things are fine.
But unlike Arrival, you never really see the aliens/monsters show up. They're just there. And there are certainly too many jump scares, and after the first few, they definitely loose their shock value.
Next, dramatic irony is over used. In too many instances does the audience know something that the characters don't, and you become numb after a while. You get tired of yelling at the characters. And finally, the ending leaves audiences somewhat unsatisfied. You want to know more about the creatures, more about the characters, and more about the world (or what's left of it). Instead, you just get the rolling credits.
