Here is My Movie Review of A Quiet Place Part II
Now when it comes to the first Quiet Place film I really enjoyed it. I thought it was a really smart and really affected horror film about this family trying to survive the apocalypse. It did a terrific job of developing all the characters it made and made you care about them. Now when it comes to this film and out of the two films this is my favorite one because it takes everything I enjoyed about that first film and makes it better and more fun and a lot scarier but also a lot more dramatic than that first film.
So basically what happens is that we focus on the Abbott family Trying to survive against the apocalypse in the death angels and also trying to help other people survive through the apocalypse and they meet this guy named Emmett who is this loan Survivor who doesn't believe he has any help inside of him anymore and it's up to the kids to protect Evelyn from being killed by the Death angels. That's basically what the story Is for this film and I have to say not only the storyline really awesome but it takes the first storyline and kind of a roll reversal because in the first film it was all about Lee and Evelyn protecting the kids and in this film it's about Reagan and Marcus trying to protect their mother essentially and the baby. I think this is one of the best storylines of the entire franchise.
Now as excellent as the storyline is the performances or just as fun if not better then they'll performance is in the first film because well I thought the acting the first film was terrific I think this one they really stepped it up Then we because these characters actually go through a lot more And they had to take responsibility by the by themselves because their dad Lee is dead because he sacrificed himself in the first film.
However the absolute big standout of the entire film is Millicent Simmonds who comes back as Regan Abbott and her performance is incredible because well I like her in the first film i think in this film she really steps it up they give Reagan a lot more to do in the film than she did in that first film because you could say she's the main character of this film and I think it was a terrific idea of making her the leader of her family. Now the character of Regan Abbott Is Marvelous because in this film Reagan Abbott is sort of the alpha in this film she's the one that's laying her family to safety and even though she only talks a little bit she does get scared a lot in this movie and there are moments where she has to Protector younger brother Marcus from being killed by the death angels as well as try not to get killed herself and She is probably one of my favorite characters of the entire franchise Because you can tell that she had a live heart she wants to protect her family at all cost. The themes of Reagan Abboot are tremendous whether it is her meeting Emmett for the first time or it's her fighting off the death angels or is her bonding with her family it leads to some of the most powerful and one the most emotional and also some of the most disturbing stuff in the entire film. Also you can tell that Millicent Simmonds is having a ton of fun as this character. The chemistry between her and Cillain Murphy, Emily Blunt, Noah Jupe, Djimon Hounsou is terrific.
Now let's talk about Cillian Murphy. Look, he is a tremendous actor whether you saw him in 28 Days Later, The Dark Knight Trilogy, or his Oscar winning film Oppenheimer, or Red Eye. Now when it comes to this film it is no different Cillain Murphy still gives a terrific performance as Emmett and I have to say out of all the performances he is actually my favorite performance in the entire film because you can just tell that Murphy is having the time of his life as this character.Now the character of Emmett is actually my favorite character of the entire film because this is a guy Who is really Harded and he doesn't believe he has any help inside of him Because he lost his wife and his entire family and he wants to help Regan Abbott Survive the Apocalypse and fight back against the death angels. The scenes With amit are probably some of my favorite moments in the film whether it is the scene where he coping with the lost of family or him trying to get to the boat to get to the island to find more Survivors of the Apocalypse every single scene with this character is really powerful and really incredible to watch. To be honest I would have loved to see a movie that focused around Emma and his time with his family during the apocalypse. The chemistry between him and Millicent Simmonds is spectacular.
Noah Jupe Comes back as Marcus Abbott In the film and his performance is terrific because well I liked his performance in the first film i think in this film he actually gave the better performing than they did in that first film because he actually steps it up and it's giving a lot more to do as the character of Marcus Abbott. Now the character of Marcus Abott Is really interesting because well I like them in the first film I have to say he's a lot more incredible in this film because in this one Marcus Abott Has to essentially take over his father's legacy because he died in the first films that he said we have to carry on his father's Legacy well protecting his family and preventing them from being killed by the Death Angels. The scenes with Marcus are really incredible whether it is Him taking care of the baby or him battling the death angels at a bar it leaves to throw the more powerful and one more heart pounding moments of the entire film. The chemistry between him and Millicent Simmonds is spectacular.
Emily Blunt comes back as Evelyn Abbott In the film and her performance is really interesting because I said that she was the big standout of that first film. She is still really fun and she does a glorious job as the character. Now Evelyn Abbott Are the character is really excellent because in this film she's still tries to protect her kids from the death angels but but she mostly reliant on her kids to take care of her in the baby because in the first thing she had to take care of the kids and this one the kids have to take care of her and I think that would Interesting roll reversal having a kid to take care of the adults in this film. The scenes with Evelyn Abbott are really fantastic whether it is her experiencing day one of the Apocalypse or it's her taking care of her baby well bonding with her two kids. All of her moments are incredible; they range from really heartwarming to really heart pounding and suspenseful moments throughout the entire film. The chemistry between her and Millicent Simmonds is terrific.
Now let's talk about Djimon Hounsou because he is a terrific actor. He was really awesome in the MCU as Korath. He was also really incredible in How to Train Your Dragon 2 as Drago Bludvist. He was also in Gran Turismo. I thought his performance in that film was really fun and really captivating to watch. Now in this film that is no different because he has also given another terrific and fun performance as Henri In this film. Now Henri as a character is really interesting because you don't really see this character until the third act but when you do he is actually a very remarkable character because he has taken care of people who have survived during the apocalypse And they live on this island with him. The scenes with Henri are really fun to watch Whether it is him telling Emmett how he lived on the island or is he explaining how he is taking care of all of these survivors does lead to some really fun and really heartwarming moments. But I wish we got to see more of his life during the apocalypse. Now I do wish he got a little bit more screen time. Other than that he is still a really fun and really entertaining character. The chemistry between him and Cillian Murphy is perfect.
However the best thing about the entire film is the directing by John Krasinski because I really loved his directing in that first film how he developed the Abboot Family and How he managed take this concept of people living in an apocalyptic world for a monster that would kill you if you make too much noise and make it worth a scariest things you will ever see in a film and and make it really incredible and make you Care about the characters. Now obviously he came back to Direct this film I have to say his directing is even better than it was in this first film because what What I really love about his directing is that he develops More of the family because in this film Marcus has to Take over his father's Legacy and take care of the baby and Survive against the Death angels. But the character that gets the most development I have to say it's actually Regan because in the first film she did play a role in it having her survive with her family but she wasn't the main character in that one it was her mother Evelyn. But in this film Regan Is essentially the main character she has to learn how to be the alpha of her family just like her mom was in that first film you know she's very protective over her younger brother Marcus and their baby and even though she doesn't talk that much She still gets scared there will be moments where Regan wants to scream really loud but she knows if she does the death angled would come after her So I think John Krasinski A terrific job of developing her at the character. But I like how he developed the character of Emmett because he was a guy who lost his family and everything he's been very hardened he has been very closed off with his feelings and just doesn't feel like telling evelyn and her family once been going on with him and I think he did a glorious job developing this character. So overall I think John Krasinski did a magnificent job directing this film.
So in conclusion i still really enjoyed this film in fact I think I like it better then the first film because well I enjoyed that film I just like how this one develops more the characters and the storyline is a lot better and a lot stronger than that first film Because that's when we focused on Regan trying to be like her mother being the alpha of the family as well as Marcus trying to be like his dad being the leader of the family trying to take care of the baby and protect his family. Also I like Emmett as a character out of all the characters he was my favorite in the entire film because you really understand why he doesn't express much emotions because he lost everything because his family died and he doesn't take nonsense from anybody. To be honest I would love to see a whole movie focus around Emmett and his family during the apocalypse. I think it would be really fun and incredible to have to give Cillain Murphy his own movie in this franchise. Also the performances are tremendous particularly from Millicent Simmonds as Regan and Cillain Murphy as Emmett because those two give really captivating and really fun performances. I still think that this is in my top 3 best films of 2021. I still think the film is up there with Spider-Man No Way Home Tom Holland as one of my favorite films of 2021. This film is also in my top three favorite films of 2021. I highly recommend you watch this film especially if you like the first Quiet Place film which also stars Emily Blunt. Then I'm sure you're going to like this film as well. I give this movie a 10/10.
