“A Quiet Place: Day One” tells a good story but still misses a few marks

“A Quiet Place: Day One” tells a good story but still misses a few marks

July 1, 2024 By Noah Richman and Louis Howley Leave a Comment

Noah and Louis share their thoughts on A QUIET PLACE: DAY ONE, and while they appreciated many aspects of the story, they feel ultimately disappointed with the story as a whole, because there are still holes left in how we got from “Day One” to the original “A Quiet Place” (which they both enjoyed)

Average, is the consensus, and not as thrilling as the original. But the cat wins.

When New York City comes under attack from an alien invasion, a woman and other survivors try to find a way to safety. They soon learn that they must remain absolutely silent as the mysterious creatures are drawn to the slightest sound.

DIRECTED BY: Michael Sarnoski
STORY BY: John Krasinski and Michael Sarnoski
