Movie Review: Shhhh...the novelty is gone in 'A Quiet Place' prequel

The Associated Press News Site Thursday, 27 June 2024 13:27
  • Unique Points
    • Sam is a poet and cancer patient who becomes less concerned about her illness when aliens invade New York City.
    • Eric, played by Joseph Quinn, has a goal to survive and reach Sam’s favorite pizza place in Harlem.
  • Accuracy
    • Samira is a poet and cancer patient.
    • The film explores existential questions about the will to live during a state of catastrophic emergency.
  • Deception (100%)
    None Found At Time Of Publication
  • Fallacies (70%)
    The article contains a few informal fallacies and appeals to authority. It also uses inflammatory rhetoric by referring to Hollywood's tendency to turn successful movies into franchises as 'not how Hollywood works, of course, but it’s worth repeating.' This is a generalization about the film industry that doesn't directly relate to the content of the movie itself and thus falls under an informal fallacy. Additionally, there are appeals to authority when referencing 'the internet is full of logic questions and holes if you’re curious.' This implies that because there are questions online, these must be valid criticisms rather than simply representing differing opinions. The article also uses inflammatory rhetoric by referring to the film as a 'prequel about a few new characters in New York on the first day of the invasion,' suggesting that this is somehow inferior to its predecessors. Finally, there are some instances of dichotomous depictions when contrasting the original 'A Quiet Place' with its prequel, saying that 'the thrill of that fresh idea has waned.' This implies a false dichotomy between originality and sequels/prequels.
    • Not all successful movies need to be franchises. Most really shouldn’t be.
    • The internet is full of logic questions and holes if you’re curious.
    • the beauty of “A Quiet Place” was the silly mystery. We were just dropped into this apocalyptic world with a very simple but challenging rule: If you make a noise, you die.
    • There’s only so much an audience will tolerate watching characters bewildered about something they already know.
  • Bias (95%)
    The author expresses a negative opinion towards the prequel of 'A Quiet Place' and its focus on new characters, implying that it is unnecessary and lacks the novelty of the original. The author also uses language that devalues the new characters by describing them as 'distracting' and 'underwritten'.
    • But it might have been a little interesting to watch someone figure it out, or, like try to persuade a toddler to buy into it.
      • Not all successful movies need to be franchises. Most really shouldn’t be.
        • One of the most exciting sequences that captures the terror of Krasinski’s films is when Eric goes to a pharmacy to try to get meds for Sam. It’s simple, efficient and full of dread and tension because it’s a necessary risk, unlike many of the bigger set pieces that feel more strained.
          • Ultimately Day One could have been set around any old apocalypse. Tethering it to the rules of A Quiet Place, a smart premise whose novelty is impossible to recreate let alone build a world upon, just holds it back.

          A Quiet Place: Day One lives up to the first movie by doing something radically different

          Polygon Media Group LLC Siddhant Adlakha Thursday, 27 June 2024 18:51
          • Unique Points
            • A Quiet Place: Day One is a prequel to the 2018 horror movie A Quiet Place.
            • The film is set in New York City and explores the emotional territory of its characters amidst an alien invasion.
            • Director Michael Sarnoski focuses on the human experience rather than just action and spectacle in this prequel.
            • The story revolves around a former poet, Sam (played by Lupita Nyong'o), who is terminally ill and searching for a reason to lash out as she wastes away in a hospice facility.
            • The film does not shy away from the specter of 9/11 and the news footage that came with it, using it to add depth to the disaster unfolding in New York City.
            • A Quiet Place: Day One treats New York City's neighborhoods and architecture as a distinct terrain, focusing on how people would realistically react to experiencing apocalyptic events.
            • The film explores the personal relationship between characters and a changing urban landscape, presenting some spaces with an ethereal glow while others are dull and functional.
            • Survival instinct is a key motive in the film, anchored in simple but powerfully relatable stimuli such as memory and emotional connections between characters.
            • The human voice is framed as a powerful masterstroke in the film, with characters having to suppress their primal need to scream as their lives crumble around them.
            • A Quiet Place: Day One is in theaters now.
          • Accuracy
            • Samira is a poet and cancer patient who becomes less concerned about her illness when aliens invade New York City.
            • The film explores existential questions about the will to live during a state of catastrophic emergency and prioritizing feelings in survival mode.
          • Deception (80%)
            The article contains editorializing and selective reporting. The author expresses his personal opinions about the movie being 'riveting', 'excellent Hollywood blockbuster', and 'downright excellent'. He also selectively reports that the movie moves the setting to New York City and crafts its story in the vein of large-scale disaster cinema, without mentioning that it is a prequel to A Quiet Place. This information is background noise to his human story analysis.
            • It’s likely the best Manhattan mayhem film since Cloverfield, and it’s also a downright excellent Hollywood blockbuster, if an entirely unexpected one.
            • A Quiet Place: Day One isn’t so much a spinoff and prequel of John Krasinski’s 2018 horror movie as it is a riveting drama that plays in the series’ sandbox.
            • Day One is as much about confronting oblivion as it is about confronting aliens.

          A Quiet Place: Day One movie review (2024) | Roger Ebert

          Roger Ebert's Website Brian Tallerico Thursday, 27 June 2024 21:12
          • Unique Points
            • Movie: A Quiet Place: Day One
            • Rating: PG-13
            • Running Time: 99 minutes
            • Director: Michael Sarnoski
            • Performances by Lupita Nyong'o and Alex Wolff are strong, especially Nyong'o as a hospice stage cancer patient with end-of-life desires.
            • Question explored in the film: How hard do you fight to live when you're already dying?
            • Setting: New York City on the first day of the end of the world
            • Film lacks a sense of being in a crowded city, as it wasn't shot in Manhattan but on London soundstages.
            • Joining Nyong'o and Quinn are Joseph Quinn as Eric and Djimon Hounsou reprising his role from A Quiet Place: Part II
            • The film explores themes of survival, silence, and the value of life when the world is falling apart
            • Minor beats in the film elevate it above creatively bankrupt sequels
          • Accuracy
            • Lupita Nyong’o is a poet and cancer patient who becomes less concerned about her illness when aliens invade New York City.
            • Samira is a hospice stage cancer patient with end-of-life desires.
          • Deception (50%)
            The article contains editorializing and selective reporting. The author expresses his opinions about the film's quality and its shortcomings, implying that the film lacks depth and substance. He also focuses on certain aspects of the film while ignoring others, such as the visual style or character development outside of Nyong'o and Quinn's performances.
            • Yet Sarnoski’s obvious gift for nuance comes through in a few beats.
            • Another big question is, how do you silence one of the loudest cities in the world? Sarnoski’s film informs us that NYC is regularly 90 decibels, setting the stage for a movie about how a city filled with that much hustle and bustle stays quiet. But this isn’t that movie.
            • But he lacks the skill set for action, an essential aspect of a film like this: the setpieces feel too imprecise, and the stakes never high enough to produce actual tension.
          • Fallacies (100%)
            None Found At Time Of Publication
          • Bias (95%)
            The author expresses a critical opinion of the film's pacing and lack of tension, implying that it could have been better. He also mentions that the film should have been longer to allow for more character investment and world-building. These statements suggest a bias towards wanting more from the film, potentially due to personal preferences or expectations.
            • It's hard to believe in the era of bloated blockbusters, but this one should have been longer; its 99 minutes don’t allow for enough character investment, world-building, or actual tension.
              • Yet Sarnoski’s obvious gift for nuance comes through in a few beats. He directs Nyong'o and Quinn to very solid performances with almost no dialogue, but one wishes he could have found a co-director who could give Day One a bit more visual style and substance.
