"A Quiet Place", which was born in 18 years, can be described as a dark horse in horror films, with an investment of $17 million, a global box office of $340 million, a freshness of 97% on Rotten Tomatoes, and an IMDb score of 8.3, a great success! Now, the third part of "A Quiet Place" has been filmed, although it is "thunder is loud and rain is small", but it is sincere.
The first movie started to develop the plot from the 89th day, and now "Invasion Day" continues to turn the pointer of time to the first day, and also narrates from the perspective of black women.
The female number one played by Lupita Niango, she was in the treatment center at first, without worry, and she was seriously ill, and only one cat depended on her! The black girl who walked out of "Twelve Years of Slavery" and "Us", although her appearance is not high, she accurately interprets the horror, loneliness, and longing for dreams of the characters!
Although the director was replaced by Michael Sanoski of "Operation Pig Rescue", and John Krasinski of the first two films became executive producer and screenwriter, the production team still has two brushes! Although there are no breakthroughs and surprises from the plot to the production, it's like that! No matter how much it is, that cat is really cute!
Just like when a monster falls from the sky, from the roaring sound to everyone's panicked expressions, to the gradual close-up of the monster from the feet to the whole body, this traditional shooting technique makes people feel creepy!
After the female number one was rescued by luck, the bald old black man with a cameo appearance by Germain Hansu covered her mouth and used "Shhh Don't make a sound", tell her that these monsters rely on their voices to distinguish their positions, have no eyes, and popularize the worldview!
The crowd gathered in the streets again, ready to escape to the boat. Suddenly, someone made a move, and the monster group frantically attacked the people, so scared that the female No. 1 hid under the car, but someone was hit by the monster and smashed her leg under the car.
After Joseph Quinn, who starred in "Stranger Things Season 4", appeared, he was basically treated like a male protagonist, he was weak and timid, always following the heroine like a fart, and the two began to have a friendship in distress, perhaps what the screenwriter thought in his heart: In the face of a desperate situation, men should first think about hugging with women to keep warm!
The hero and heroine fled frantically from the street to the office building, and also went to the abandoned subway, and walked forward in the deep water, all kinds of monsters smashed glass, opened their bloody mouths to raid, and the Dolby sound in the theater was roaring, coupled with the startling audio-visual language, which made people look scared!
"Invasion Day" seems to know the end when you look at the beginning, the male protagonist will definitely run to the side of the boat in the end, and the heroine will definitely commit suicide in despair when she pulls out the Walkman headphones, but she adheres to the essence of the first two episodes - capturing human emotions in desperate disasters!
For example, when lightning and thunder roar, the hero and heroine shout "Ah! It condenses the courage of the little people to resist the powerful evil forces
Another example is that the terminally ill black girl wants to eat pizza, and the white brother takes her to an abandoned restaurant to fulfill her long-cherished wish in life.
Although Heimei was terminally ill and finally chose to commit suicide, she can still share hardships with strangers for the dream of eating pizza, and is not afraid of hideous and terrifying monster attacks, the hero and heroine can believe in the warmest side of human nature, perhaps it is the theme of this film!
With the increasing proliferation of Hollywood sequel movies, the original IP of "A Quiet Place: Invasion Day" is similar to the situation of the "Saw Horror" series, which sticks to the original popcorn mode, and there is no innovation and breakthrough in the details, which is not attractive! But it can give you a temporary pleasure in the cinema with the audio-visual bombardment!
