Enjoyed quite a bit of the movie. There are burst of intense moments and did a great job of immersing you in the world of silence. It did not elevate beyond survival horror playbook and not going any deeper in the father/daughter dynamic. To me a little too telling of a plot device in the daughter portrayal. Just felt too crowd pleasing once it hit the 3rd act.

It goes without saying Emily Blunt brings up the movie a lot and not 100% sold on Krasinski on screen. Think he is better suited behind camera and hope he able to smash the next movie he directed. Finger crossed not a one hit wonder.

Ehh!!! One is cerebral while the other is visceral in terms of how the alien being depicted.

Michael Bay partly owned Platinum Dunes the production company and believed they have multi picture deals with Paramount. Previously they made half plus six horror reboots that got nowhere. It's his modest budget label that operates similarly like BlumHouse.
