A Quiet Place
****4 out of 5 star rating
What if your life depended on complete silence? That is the basis for John Krasinski's (The Office) film, A Quiet Place. The movie is a post-apocalyptic ( beginning on Day 89) story of how a family survives among the population of blind, blood-thirsty, unbelievably fast monsters that rely on their super-developed hearing to seek and devour their prey. The Quiet Place is a thriller that promises the movie goer a roller-coaster ride of intense emotions.
In the opening scene, we learn that this family knows sign language. Why? The oldest daughter (deaf actress, Millicent Simmonds) is deaf. As they are tiptoeing through a rundown Superstore, we get our first glimpse of the family of five. The tension continues to build on the walk home with the knowledge that the youngest of the family took the batteries to his newly acquired electronic rocket. Of course, this is unknown to the rest of the family. You can see this in the trailer, so no spoilers here. From that point on, we journey along with the family through this new life with its new rules of silence.
Fast forward a year later and we see how they navigate through their daily life and activities. Sand is distributed along the pathway leading to the farmhouse to avoid crunching leaves, and smoked fish is served on large leaves of lettuce plates. Adding an extra challenge to their existence is mom's (Emily Blunt) late term pregnancy. Will this be the family's demise in this silent world?
Despite its horror elements, this story shows the complexities and intimacies of family relationships as they fight for their survival: father and daughter difficulties, the strong bonds of siblings, and the determination of parents to keep their children safe at all costs.
It was amazing to be in a packed movie theater where the audience was afraid to crunch their popcorn, ruffle a bag, or slurp a drink for fear of breaking the silence. A well-directed plot and exceptional acting make this movie worth the trip to the movie theater.
