I Did NOT Handle A Quiet Place Very Well - ภาพยนตร์และแอนิเมชัน
Imagine seeing this in a cinema....I've never been in a cinema that was SO silent. And everytime you heard someone eating popcorn it made the whole thing even more scary!
Or annoying considering talking people.
I agree I saw it twice in Theaters and it was so much fun
I didn't even want to eat popcorn, especially during some scenes, everyone was so quiet and stopped eating too. It really was an experience
It was like everyone in the theater thought the creatures would swoop in and kill us if we made noise.😅
That might have been the only time I didn’t finish my popcorn during the movie. I think I walked out with 3/4 of the bucket full and ate later.
“Is that nail gonna come in handy later?” No, but it’ll come in footy.
🤣🤣🤣
Why did I think this exact same reply? 😂
😂
Alex knowing that they have super hearing but not realizing that the opening in their heads is a giant EAR is the most on brand thing for Alex ever
Him questioning if the baby can scream before birth is the most on brand thing ever
@@user-tv2bk2ul9tthat bit got me too 😂😂
His first response, "Is that an eye?" right after saying a moment before, "They're blind!" LOL
The "does the baby cry inside the mother?" question made me laugh hard. 😅
But does it tho
Lmao me too 😂😂
Fun Fact: They ( the Producers ) didnt plan on an actual deaf girl playing the part, but John Krasinski wanted an actual deaf girl to play her, and made everyone learn sign language.
On a side note, another very good Emily Blunt movie is Edge of Tomorrow, also starring Tom Cruise. Very good sci fi film.
Other good Emily Blunt movies are 5 year Engagement and The Devil Wears Prada
Yesss edge of tomorrow !!!!!
uP
John Krasinski was not only the Director, but the writer and head producer.
Yay for Krasinski, nay for Tom Cruise.
This movie is so effective because since it’s quiet, you go quiet and any sound gives you a panic attack because you’re in the same survival mode as them and sound equals death. 😂
They should have called the movie “silent anxiety attack” lol
People being jump scared doesn't usually make me laugh but with you it's hilarious. The screams come from so deep within your soul that I can't help but cackle every time.
😂😂😂😂😂
Its staged for internet likes.
Maybe he plays them up a bit, but definetly not fake when he gets scared or suprised. Well imo ofc, but he really does seem natural to me. I've seen many people who fake them and if he does, it's fine bc he's funny and it seems real.@@kevin16scalecollector54
@@kevin16scalecollector54how sad are you LMAO just let people enjoy what they enjoy
@@Jade-tu6ug enjoy what you like. Doesn’t change the fact its staged.
Ever since Home Alone 2, a loose nail on the stairs into the foot is one of my greatest fears and it grosses me out every time.
This movie is especially sweet because Emily Blunt and John Krasinski are married in real life. You have GOT to watch the second movie, it explains a lot of why they had to all go quiet. Loved the video ❤
Pt 2 baby we gon get it
You need to learn reaction commenting etiquette. Why would you spoil it like that
@@Hey_Jamie what exactly did they spoil lol
@@Hey_Jamie? What was spoiled?
@@Hey_Jamiethe only thing spoiled here is u
the next Emily Blunt movie to check out should definitely be the Edge of Tomorrow, it's absolutely amazing and so underrated imo
That’s what I said
As soon as he said the only movie I’ve seen her in if I didn’t hear edge of tomorrow y’all already know 😂😂
so underrated that everyone thinks its good lol
@@mjeid4835 I meant most people don't even know this masterpiece exists
I freaking love Emily blunt
The part with the corn silo is that, that is A real life thing. It is horrifying to even comprehend ..but it is a thing that could happen if someone where to fall into it.
Alex getting jump-scared by an irl babbling brook setting on a white noise machine just made my life.
😂😂😂😂
@@alexhefnerstvmovievaulti wonder if you can do a movie reaction to Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles from 2014??
@@alexhefnerstvmovievault if you don’t know what creature that is, it is an alien. It’s an alien, humanoid creature that has insensitive hearing and is blind. 3:37
@@alexhefnerstvmovievault those things are basically death angels/aliens
@@nicodimatteothe species name is “Death Angel”
that thing under its armour you were confused about is an ear. they have very sensitive hearing to help them hunt but are blind. the high pitch sound gets to them because of their really sensitive hearing, not because they hate sounds, they just hear really, really well
yeah i know the struggle my Ears are sensitive af and i live with 3 loud ppl in a house and they don´t care
I don't get how he didn't think that this weird thing they heard sounds from was his ear lmao. He said eye and mouth but never thought of ear?!?
Yeah, and they attack things that made sounds because that's how they hunt. Sounds = must be alive. Which should be an obvious take but i just said it because he said they attack things cause they hate sounds.
Interesting. In Space, no one can hear you Scream (ie. Alien promo). Maybe that’s why they hated Sound so much. Just an observation. 🙂
@@FruchtZwergeLpyeah that was pretty dumb 😕
13:20 inside the womb the baby acts as if it would cry but it doesn’t make a sound because they’re completely immersed in amniotic fluid so there’s no air in the lungs & air is needed to produce sound
I’m actually still laughing that Alex passed the bar exam, and still asked that question, straight men will always entertain me. Lmao
@@kristianberg4264 So did Rudy Guiliani.
You don't necessarily have to be a genius to be a lawyer!
air is needed to produce sound? Im ... not entirely convinced thats the case, ive taught musical acoustics for years, and went to grad school for astrophsyics. You just need a medium for sound to travel in. Sure can't do it in space, but some of the loudest sounds are made under water by whales. I guess you could make an argument that those sounds need air for lungs, but fish can produce sound via other parts called stridulation. Perhaps the argument is that a baby crying would need lungs with air, but ... I'm gonna push back in saying that its a bit more complicated than just needing air to create sounds.
Sorry I know im that guy, I just went to school for like 12 fucking years for this shit, so I find it compulsory to explain.
its not air necessarily sound needs medium to travel and air is one of em
@@evenglare You're right about fish not needing air to make sound, but they make sound with something other than vocal cords. Human vocal cords need air to produce sound. We can't vibrate the cords together in water. People screaming underwater is because they have air in their lungs that they're forcing out, but it there's no air, there's no sound.
😂 Oh my Alex you just killed me with the Roomba saying:
“Hell no! I’d die from the f**king roomba. You just killed me b*tch!!” 😆
A couple fun facts John Krasinski who played the father in this movie wrote the script and Directed this film. It was his first directing for a horror film. Also Emily Blunt is married to John in real life so that is why they have insane chemistry in the film as husband and wife.
Saw this in theaters when it came out and the ONLY thing that broke the silence in my theatre was when Emily Blunt’s character stepped on that nail. Everyone in my theatre winced and shrieked at it.
oh yeah i remember the collective oos and ahhs bc we all knew it was coming from the earlier scene when the nail got pulled out and another round of holy shits following when she silently pulled her foot off. Amazingly strong character and emily blunt did phenomenal.
Oh my god, I am living for Alex’s screams of terror.
Same, it’s more entertaining than any comedy reaction 😂
14:14 Yeah, her acting was so phenomenal. She nailed it!
XD
Alex being jumpscared

The scene in the grocery store you notice all the shelves have been ransacked except the potato chips because they are too noisy.
I like this observation!!!!
John Krazinski, lead actor and husband to Emily Blunt also wrote and directed this film.
It was a pleasure watching you jump at every opportunity this film gave.
Also the girl playing the daughter is a real life deaf person and during filming she was teaching the others ASL in order to keep it looking as authentic as possible.
This movie is phenomenal! When John let his wife Emily read the script she said “ you must let me play this woman”
Fall into a grain bin without safety equipment is basically fatal. If you do fall in you should not move as when you do your movements push you further down. It's really sad. Always take the time for safety even if you're just checking something quick.
LOLing at your "Why are we learning math?" Still important, even in an apoccyclipse.
This movie is genius because it even makes the audience want to hold their breath and not make any noise
It’s safe to say, Emily Blunts character absolutely 💯 suffered the most at the end of this movie. The kid, her husband, her daughter and other kid, then the nail, giving birth with killer aliens hunting her a few feet away lol, she had it super rough
I need him to drop part 2 immediately. Seeing him jump for the most infinitesimal sound was hilarious.😂
Being married for 20 yrs, I’m envious of this movie. A quiet house might be nice
😂😂😂😂😂😂
The kid didn’t want to wear the earpiece because everytime the dad tried to fix it it never worked. She basically hasn’t been able to use her hearing aid since the apocalypse started. She was mad that she couldn’t hear and had lost hope so she tried to convince her dad to quit trying to help her.
She also blames herself for her brother being killed because of the hearing aid being broken and she couldn’t hear him plus she gave him the toy.
I have never laughed so much at another's jump scares as I have at yours, my good man.
You should watch The Martian. Gives a pretty accurate example of what happens when you mix concentrated oxygen and fire.
I second the Martian!! One of my favorite movies
"better a disappointed kid now than a dead one later"

🤣 People need to recommend more horror movies because Alex's reactions to the jump scares or the slightest random sound or noise in his room is hysterical.
John made everyone learn sign language so the communication would be genuine as the actress who played his daughter is actually deaf.
When I watched it in theaters it was amazing how the normally loud crowd was absolutely silent, you could have heard a pin drop. Amazing movie, amazing experience.
Alex, your editing ALWAYS has me in stitches! I also loved how going into the movie, you were a bit skeptical about the movie. It was like you were broadcasting "How scary can this really be?" Joking about how they had to be quiet all the time. And then by the second half, you were pretty much a member of the family, holding your mouth closed and screaming any time something bad happened.
The second movie is EVEN BETTER. The theme of this one was redemption. You caught it. But there's a different theme in the second one. It's powerful, as well.
editor*
@@mmkay3296, if I recall correctly, Alex edits his own videos, so it is his editing. Have you never seen his alter ego, Editing Alex?
I watched this on premiere day and I’ve never been in a theatre more quiet then this one. Whenever someone would eat or drink anything, we could all hear it and it just made people more anxious lol
Part 2 may not be as bad but its still got some pretty good wtf moments and nice edge of your seat moments. This was great to see Alex…Hope you eventually do Part 2. I think the whole cast really did amazing in this and for this to be John’s directorial debut…he couldnt have done a better job.
I love part 2!
May not be as bad? In my opinion, I personally think part 2 is better than the first. It shows more danger with the setting
@@chiomorii agreed, part 2 is better.
Part II had me silent screaming lmao
"i dont know, fuck it" when you were talking about oxygen was the funniest thing ive heard today! lol
And, yes. It's highly flammable.
I love how each time Alex gets scared he goes into a different stance of martial arts. Bro became master Shifu each time he heard a noise.
Alex yelling "FUCK!" every time he's scared will always be hilarious
First issue I had with the movie was when they left the store. There should always be a parent in front & another at the end of the line.
Don’t get me started lmao there’s just way too many of those moments in this movie for me to like it
that felt early on when they were more new to the whole thing, mistakes make you learn they didn't have hindesight that's not a movie problem that's a mistake they made
Nah just like when the kid opens the door and screams… dumb. The baby not crying dumb. The kids can stomp and sprint though the field but if they barely whisper or fart they’re dead. Where is the government? They could easily destroy these things. The girl realizing her earpiece saves the day but not telling anybody. I Like the original idea and acting but hate the overall execution. And I wouldn’t let my kids walk behind me and my wife at the mall let alone in the middle of monster infested grounds
@@juicebox151she didn’t realize her ear piece did that. she just thought it was acting up the whole time
@@juicebox151 Where is the government? Probably all hiding in bunkers waiting for it to all blow over. You absolutely cannot depend on the government in a dire situation. Hell you can barely depend on them in good times.
10:00 "If I were in, dude, I would die from the fucking roomba!" XD
Love this franchise/series (more to come). Fresh new writing, director and young actors. And the adult casting is perfect.
“promise me you will protect them” queue me tearing up because I know what’s about to happen 😢
This is a scary movie. But watching it with you, I was laughing through most if it. The jump scares, your little quips, and your editor making fun of you( the slow clapping bit)...good stuff!
I just want the full compilation of Alex's jumpscare screams.
Hopefully we get that shit before new years, 2023 comp of his jump scares 😭😭
“You just killed me bitch” while talking to the rumba omg I’m dying ur my new fav reactor😂😂😂😂🤝🏾
Now you gotta go watch part 2. This is a stand alone movie if you want... but A Quiet Place II is basically like the second half of a bigger story. Def give it a go. You'd think the effect would wear off after the first one... like, what else could they do?? But it's actually such a great movie too. I would always watch the back to back.
Oh nice! Can’t wait to check that out!!
@@alexhefnerstvmovievaultyes please please please do the second one!!!
I LOVE A Quiet Place!! Probably the only "horror" film I actually love (I don't really consider it horror, more like sci-fi thriller with a sweet epicenter). Lemme say I audibly gasped when I saw the notif for this video!
Also, can we just appreciate that this movie pulls zero punches? The youngest kid dies in the first five minutes, it immediately gives us the stakes! Nobody's safe! The setups and payoffs in this are downright BRILLIANT. It takes an interesting premise and delivers!
My husband made me watch this movie when I was PREGNANT! So much worse pregnant. I don't even like horror movies, but this one was so well done I had to give it props.
5:57 the comedic timing of the jump scare is just perfect
Talking about Emily Blunt, you must watch Edge of Tomorrow. It's one of those great movies that did not get enough attention because of the "superhero era" that we were living. Amazing stuff, great acting, great story, creative aliens, etc.
Now you have to watch part 2. It is on the same level as this one and is just as good, if not, better
I think the first one is a bit better due to its suspense - and maybe because this type of movie was something new, the second one had a bit more action in it. But I didn't regret buying both films in one case when it dropped on Amazon, and at that point I had never watched the second one! I love them both equally but for different reasons~ Great movies!
THANK YOU for watching this one! I got SO excited that you watched this one, and was giggling at EVERY. SINGLE. jump scare you reacted to. Best reaction yet from you I've seen!
BEST reaction I've seen from a reaction video-PERIOD.
I'm not into horror films, either, Alex, but this IS a slappin' movie! EDIT: It wasn't the girls fault her brother got killed. She took out the batteries before giving it to him. She didn't know he grabbed them back up. She just didn't realize he didn't understand the importance of not using them.
I'm sure someone has probably beat me to it, but John Krasinski co-wrote the story with 2 other writers, he directed it and played the husband. He actually is married to Emily Blunt, but the kids were just actors. The girl, played by Millicent Simmonds is actually deaf.
BTW, there's a Part II. 😁
"So, is the nail gonna be handy for later?"
Nope, it's gonna be for FOOT later...
This was a unexpected treat! Loved this movie, you definitely gotta check out the sequel it’s even scarier!
I've never been a fan of horror movies but this movie is absolutely INCREDIBLE and I loved it (probably because it's not a gory kind of horror film and just has a few jumps). John Krasinski did a fantastic job bringing this to life and of course Emily Blunt and the two kids were fantastic too. This movie truly was unlike anything else and genuinely made you wanna sit there completely silent and not move whenever you watched it, especially in cinemas - people trying to not even rustle their popcorn buckets because they were freaked out. 😂 I LOVED that they put the audio into the daughters perspective whenever she was on screen, because of course she's deaf she can't hear the monsters and other sounds. Such a clever detail. 👏🏻 Hope you watch Part 2!
Same. I've never been into gory, R-rated hacker slasher horror movies (I'm actually pretty squeamish about such things). A Quiet Place 1 and 2 are the only ones I like, because they're more suspense than true horror. And I like that they used a girl who's deaf in real life instead of just having someone pretending.
Absolutely agreed! She did a brilliant job in her role. And agreed on the hacker/gory movies, they're just absolutely not my thing. However, this one had me on the edge of my seat the entire time. Brilliant job!@@joshuariddensdale2126
7:52 - NO spoilers: that actually gets explored in the sequel, which you should watch, as it tells one continuous story right where this one left off. Thanks for subjecting yourself for our amusement.
20:38 exactly what they’re doing. Displace your weight over a wider space, like they do with the panel. By the way, people actually can “drown” in grain silos like that if they fall in.
OMG Thank you for finally watching this!!! oh and the daughter is deaf in real life and yes Emily and John are married irl. People die in silos all the time. its like 1000 lbs of pressure if you get sucked into it and please watch the second one
Your screams are scaring me more than the actual scenes 😂
Your fear of horror movies with suspense is hilarious to watch because most of us felt the same way watching these for the first time. Thanks for the reaction and please watch the second one! These actors/actresses did an amazing job.
watching dylan get scared over and over is premium content.
Dylan 😂😂
Bro was definitely thinking of Dylan Is In Trouble💀
No, that's not its eye, it's its ear, that's why it hears so good.
I had WAYYYYYY too much fun watching this 💀
The getting used to marvel end credit scenes is so real ✋😭
I really hope you watch the second one, because the opening moments are not only chef's kiss amazing, but key. Great video as always.
Noted!
I’m not gonna lie if he was to see a scary movie with his lights dimmed all the way down it would honestly be the best . This man would look over his shoulder the hole move 😂😂😂
There cannot be fire without oxygen,Alex 😅
He was right though pure oxygen is insanely light-able that’s why people with oxygen tanks can’t have a lighter any where near them because if a little fire goes in the whole thing can explode
@@reganborrellifaithinthefut3251Right and wrong; oxygen itself isn't flammable at all, but it helps everything that IS burn way, way more easily, so you basically treat it the same way as if it were.
I love the second it continues the story and we learn how everything started.
13:18
No, the baby cannot cry inside the mother. The child has the capacity to do so, however, never will because it cannot yet breathe. It is still attached to the umbilical cord in the womb, and thus doesn't need to use their lungs yet to get oxygen. The heart is beating, circulating the oxygen in the blood, but the source is not yet the lungs. Sound is generated almost entirely by the movement of air past the vocal cords, and that's also why people who are choking on broccoli or whatnot can't shout "help I'm choking", because if you can't breathe, you can't speak.
Honestly, very good and interesting question.
I would love to see you reacting to japanese horror movies. You'd need a paramedic nearby.
I never knew I needed to hear Alex screaming like crazy at every noise😂
Youre reactions are bigger jump scares for me than the actual movie! 😂
This was so good. The sequel was equally good. And then there's a prequel, called A Quiet Place Day One. I can't wait to see it.
the amount of times he junped and screamed fuck is unreasonably hilarious
I just love this movie so fucking much. I saw it in cinemas on the same day I saw whichever Avengers movie was out at the time - I saw this during the day and Avengers at night - and I barely gave Avengers a second thought for WEEKS afterwards, I was so taken by this movie. EVERYTHING about it is just incredible, and tragic, and sweet, and terrifying, and just so beautiful.
A couple of quick fun facts: John Krasinski wrote and directed - a huge change from being best known as Jim from The Office - and his on-screen wife is played by his real-life wife. The daughter in deaf IRL so the rest of the cast had to learn ASL, and did so happily. Also, those things you thought might be their eyes aren't, those are their ears and they're huge because the creatures are so sensitive to sound.
IMO the sequel isn't QUITE as good (but that's a bloody hard thing to do) but it's only very slightly 'lesser' because it's less tense, but it does fill in a lot of details about the creatures, and it expands the world a bit more, so it's definitely worth watching.
Try to include Train to Busan for the month of October. I know you don’t love scary movies but this is top tier with a lot of everything (action, intensity, emotion, depth) not simply a horror flick.
Hey farmer here. Ive been in corn piles and grainbins more times then I can count. I've never sunk into it. I'm half sure, thats only in movies. Now if the auger was on that's a different story.
its my birthday!! I'm 18 now, joining the navy, passed the SEAL entry program but, I could not be happier watching this video, amazing.
Happy birthday and good luck dude
Congratulations and happy birthday!
I am totally enjoying myself. This is the best review with the greatest jump scares I’ve seen so far. Don’t forget to watch Quiet Place 2 it does have a short spot in the beginning of the movie that explains how all this got started.
In the first scene you can see that nobody has taken any chips or bags from the shelves at the grocery store due to the huge noise that potato chips bag make.
In quicksand, the best strategy is to ocupy the most superficial space you can. On other words, you should be the most horizontal you can, with legs and arms open.
I want to see you watch a horror movie in a theatre! Your screams of *FUUUCK!!* are hilarious! And you would scare the CRAP out of everyone around you! 😂😂😂
This was such an interesting experience in the theater. For the most part, we are all courteous movie-goers, and are quite in the theater... but this movie caused a whole other level of quite.
Take your reaction to the roomba, and apply that to an entire theater. People weren't eating popcorn or nachos... they were silent, instead of quiet.
Yeah, this was John Krasinski's directorial debut... and he starred in it opposite his real life wife. For a movie that could have fallen short because of so many things, it was spectacular
When you’re in quicksand, you’ll stop sinking once you’ve displaced enough sand equivalent to what you weigh.
I watched this in theaters... It was terrifying to be surrounded by a big screen with loud scares.
Part 2 is a must watch. Starts with some flash back to day 0. And I agree with watching Edge of Tomorrow.
Alex you jumscared me so many fucking times in this reaction , great editing though about gave me a heart attack
Also, for quicksand. Lie on your back, a if you were trying to float on your back in a pool. It's essentially really thick sand-water, you should be able to float.
Such a great reaction. I loved how you screamed so loud at the breaking lantern from the start. I love how they built that up to be something scary because it's the first loud sound you hear after the space shuttle. The pervasive silence just amplifies our reactions to any sound. Hope you watch the sequel some day. And definitely watch Edge of Tomorrow as others have suggested. Great film. Btw, I also watched Adjustment Bureau a lot for some reason. 😆
John Krasinski said in a Most Googled Questions video that he wrote the movie as a love letter to his kids.
That movie made me jump 2 or 3 times the first time I watched it but I hadn't seen anyone as jumpy as you Alex 😂😂 it's ok tho, it means you were really into it and that's always good. Gotta watch part 2 now
Death and gore are not the only things that make for horror. In fact, the quietest, and most bloodless horror movies are often the scariest ones. The Babadook is a perfect example of psychological horror that can be equally, if not more disturbing than something with a lot of death. Great movie. Too bad Alex would be too scared to watch it.
The problem is that, while his death was tragic, they're the parents and it was their responsibility and he knows that and both of them blame themselves, not their daughter, but themselves for being the two adults in a situation where they should have been watching. They're both trying to hold it together and protect their remaining children, knowing that at any moment a sneeze could get them killed.
OMG RIGHT!!!!!!! I missed this in theaters and ALL my friends told me it was an ENTIRE experience and I feel I missed out.
I didn’t expect this reaction but I’m so glad you did it 🙏 One of my favourite horror movies of all time
