"A Quiet Place" is the product of movie writers who want to make money but don't want to put in so much work making a screenplay filled with dialogue and dynamic characterization.
A family who have to stay quiet in order to survive doesn't really make much of an interesting plot, even if you throw in cool scary aliens. The characters are one-dimensional - the most notable of them being "Eyebrows Girl". Eyebrows gets the most development out of them, and all she does is do really annoying Too Dumb to Live shit like break a lamp, keep her eyebrows bold and big, give that toy plane back to her brother to play with, smile all the time, neglect to trim her eyebrows, make horrible hearing aid sounds, did I mention I hate her eyebrows?
The plot holes were annoying as hell, so how come humans whispering is unacceptable to the aliens but WATER streams are okay?? And how come "Eyebrows" was the first human to have discovered the aliens don't like tinnitus sounds? The U.S. military should have gotten that kind of information from other deaf people a long time ago. And just why are the aliens even on Earth if they think it's such a horribly loud place? Why not just leave and go back to space? THERE IS NO SOUND IN SPACE!!!
Rotten Tomatoes gives this crap movie 95% right? Well I give it negative 195%
Film "Quiet Place" is proof that movies with lazy writing CAN sell like hotcakes
