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!
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.
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.
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
@@kevin16scalecollector54 Uh huh, and you know this how, exactly? Because if that's how you feel, then see yourself out. Why fools like you waste your time on things that shouldn't matter to you is beyond me.
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. 😂
@@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
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.
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 ❤
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.
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, 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.
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.
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
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.
@@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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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.
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
11:18 God that’s dark, imagine trying to live your life feeling like you not only killed your little brother but also feeling like your dad hates you for it

🤣 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.
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.
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!
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.
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.
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
@@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.
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.
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. 😁
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!
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.
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.
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!
Yeah definitely watch the second one it's so good!!!! John and Emily are married in real life, and he also directed it too. Noah (who plays Marcus, the brother) and Millie (who plays Regan, the sister) actually became really close while filming and he signs better now than most of the other adults in the cast! Millie is a phenomenal actor and I love that everyone learned how to sign so that they could communicate with her everyday. That shows how important Deaf representation is and how much they care! 🤟
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.
NO, IT WASN'T HER FAULT ! The father took out the batteries, all she did was give him the shuttle, the KID took the batteries, or didn't you bother noticing that ?
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
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
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!
20:44 I’m a cereal grain surveyor and I have walked on a lot of piles of grain to get samples, including inside silos. In order to sink into it the drying ventilation has to be on, in that case fine bulk material fluidises and you can sink like in a swamp. Maybe if the silo emptying mechanism is on, that could make a difference too. In this case it is just about impossible to sink. You fall in knees deep at most.
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.
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 😂😂😂
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.
This movie was INCREDIBLE to watch in a packed theatre. And I didn’t know how they would do the whole sound thing so as usual I got popcorn… worst choice ever, but also an incredible experience. I have NEVER paid attention to the sounds I make when I chew things, but for like the first half hour or so I made sure to REEEEEALLY not make any sound and no matter how careful I was my own chewing felt insanely loud because the theatre had nothing but DEAD SILENCE. And it was FULLY PACKED. I have never heard so much silence in such a crowded place. And I mean, as soon as the sounds start in the movie then the sounds seemed to feel more okay in the room too, but that first sequence? Incredible. Amazing. I cannot believe that was Krasinski’s first go at directing a movie either, but he did an excellent job on this one. And when his character signs “I love you, I have always loved you”? Man, I bawl just thinking about it every time. He acted his ass off in this movie, they all did. And it’s especially great because Emily Blunt and John Krasinski are actually married in real life and you can tell. They just have mad chemistry not just because they are good actors, but because the vibes are there and they’re genuine. I’m so in love with all these characters. The second movie is good too, guess in my opinion it just felt less good to me because I’d already seen more or less the same things in the first one, except two goes bigger and has way more characters. So you might enjoy that one too, Cillian Murphy is in it by the way. And by the way I do not believe you only saw two movies with Emily Blunt in them. You mean to tell me you didn’t watch The Devil Wears Prada yet? She was also in this lesser known movie called Dan in Real Life, with Steve Carell, which is really sweet and really good. Not a horror movie by any means- just a fun, cozy flick with some sad moments at times and some good writing overall too. She has a very minor role in that one, but that’s the movie that made me fall in love with her. And you can skip Mary Poppins 2, it’s trash although she’s perfect in the role. It’s just… a waste of time of a movie, unfortunately.
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. 😆
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.
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
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.
“Is that nail gonna come in handy later?” No, but it’ll come in footy.

But does it tho
Lmao me too 😂😂

@@woolgathrrin some way maybe? But since their lungs have never had air in them and air is crucial for sound, there would be no noise
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.

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.
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!
"So, is the nail gonna be handy for later?"
Nope, it's gonna be for FOOT later...
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
@@mochiiitea agreed, part 2 is better.
Part II had me silent screaming lmao
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.
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.
Alex yelling "FUCK!" every time he's scared will always be hilarious
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'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. 😁
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!
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.
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 😭😭
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.
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.
Yeah definitely watch the second one it's so good!!!! John and Emily are married in real life, and he also directed it too. Noah (who plays Marcus, the brother) and Millie (who plays Regan, the sister) actually became really close while filming and he signs better now than most of the other adults in the cast! Millie is a phenomenal actor and I love that everyone learned how to sign so that they could communicate with her everyday. That shows how important Deaf representation is and how much they care! 🤟
This movie is genius because it even makes the audience want to hold their breath and not make any noise
When you’re in quicksand, you’ll stop sinking once you’ve displaced enough sand equivalent to what you weigh.
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.
NO, IT WASN'T HER FAULT ! The father took out the batteries, all she did was give him the shuttle, the KID took the batteries, or didn't you bother noticing that ?
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
I love the second it continues the story and we learn how everything started.
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
I watched this in theaters... It was terrifying to be surrounded by a big screen with loud scares.
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!
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!
This was a unexpected treat! Loved this movie, you definitely gotta check out the sequel it’s even scarier!
20:44 I’m a cereal grain surveyor and I have walked on a lot of piles of grain to get samples, including inside silos. In order to sink into it the drying ventilation has to be on, in that case fine bulk material fluidises and you can sink like in a swamp. Maybe if the silo emptying mechanism is on, that could make a difference too. In this case it is just about impossible to sink. You fall in knees deep at most.
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.
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.
No, that's not its eye, it's its ear, that's why it hears so good.
watching dylan get scared over and over is premium content.
Dylan 😂😂
Bro was definitely thinking of Dylan Is In Trouble💀
Your screams are scaring me more than the actual scenes 😂
0:18 I wouldn’t exactly call a quiet place a horror movie, I’d say it’s more of a suspenseful thriller.
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 😂😂😂
3:30 to be fair she gave him the plane without the batteries, and she didn't know he would take them, or turn on the plane.
I didn’t expect this reaction but I’m so glad you did it 🙏 One of my favourite horror movies of all time
The lack of sound makes the jumpscares that much worse 😂
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.
This movie was INCREDIBLE to watch in a packed theatre. And I didn’t know how they would do the whole sound thing so as usual I got popcorn… worst choice ever, but also an incredible experience. I have NEVER paid attention to the sounds I make when I chew things, but for like the first half hour or so I made sure to REEEEEALLY not make any sound and no matter how careful I was my own chewing felt insanely loud because the theatre had nothing but DEAD SILENCE. And it was FULLY PACKED. I have never heard so much silence in such a crowded place. And I mean, as soon as the sounds start in the movie then the sounds seemed to feel more okay in the room too, but that first sequence? Incredible. Amazing. I cannot believe that was Krasinski’s first go at directing a movie either, but he did an excellent job on this one.
And when his character signs “I love you, I have always loved you”? Man, I bawl just thinking about it every time. He acted his ass off in this movie, they all did. And it’s especially great because Emily Blunt and John Krasinski are actually married in real life and you can tell. They just have mad chemistry not just because they are good actors, but because the vibes are there and they’re genuine. I’m so in love with all these characters.
The second movie is good too, guess in my opinion it just felt less good to me because I’d already seen more or less the same things in the first one, except two goes bigger and has way more characters. So you might enjoy that one too, Cillian Murphy is in it by the way.
And by the way I do not believe you only saw two movies with Emily Blunt in them. You mean to tell me you didn’t watch The Devil Wears Prada yet? She was also in this lesser known movie called Dan in Real Life, with Steve Carell, which is really sweet and really good. Not a horror movie by any means- just a fun, cozy flick with some sad moments at times and some good writing overall too. She has a very minor role in that one, but that’s the movie that made me fall in love with her.
And you can skip Mary Poppins 2, it’s trash although she’s perfect in the role. It’s just… a waste of time of a movie, unfortunately.
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!
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. 😆
I never knew I needed to hear Alex screaming like crazy at every noise😂
22:28 better reach with a pitchfork, and greater force on a smaller surface area with the spikes. Honestly I kind of agree with you.
I had WAYYYYYY too much fun watching this 💀
Every time he’s jump scared he’s about to be like “with this treasure, ancient seal of Divine general MAHORAGA” ahmoment
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 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.
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
Him jumping…. Had me laughing so hard!!!! 😂😂😂
Part 2 is a must watch. Starts with some flash back to day 0. And I agree with watching Edge of Tomorrow.
I know this is extremely selfish, but your jump scares are one of the best parts of your videos LoL.
You make my day!!! I LOVE your reactions! One of my favorite reactors. Keep doing you because you're great at it!!
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 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.
