★Synopsis
"A
Quiet Place" is a monster movie, starring director John Krasinski and
starring by his wife Emily Blunt, with the theme of doomsday survival. After
the trailer was released, the plot was confusing and immediately attracted my
attention.
Although
it had a small format, there was no big scene, but whether its story or method
caused the audience's fear to be maximized by hearing and vision. The overall
depressive atmosphere was more effective than many recent high-production
commercial movie.
Because
the world was occupied by a group of hearing-aware monsters, the whole movie
started with no sound. In addition to the fact that there was almost no
dialogue between the characters, and the use of soundtrack is rare, so there
were not many explanatory dialogue which is often used in movies to help the
audience understand the plot. Without these unnatural bridges, only the screen
and the expressions of the actors were used to promote the plot. This really
tested the director's storytelling skills.
★Description
of the plots
Immediately
after the opening of the movie, it fully explained the story. The family was
searching for supplies in the uninhabited town. Especially the scene on the
bridge impressed me most. After the boy made a sound with a rocket, his parents
were scared and anxious. The bewildered expression, coupled with the monsters
that immediately emerged from the bush, the director simply pulled the audience
into the plot by relying solely on the behavior of the characters and the
previous newspaper slogan.
Even
if it was still impossible to escape the "Jump Scare" that
occasionally scares the audience with sudden movements or sounds, but after
deducting these bridges, the overall tight atmosphere was still quite
successful.
Although
the fire caused by the child overturning the oil lamp while playing a board game
was immediately extinguished by his father, the small sound made immediately
attracted the monster, and the family could only hold their breath while
listening to the low noise outside the house. We only know that it has a keen
hearing but has not seen the whole picture of the monster. “A Quiet Place” used
our unknowns about monsters to pile up fears and it finally exploded.
However,
"A Quiet Place" is not only a fight against monsters, the family is
also very important. Parents' care and responsibility for their children are
very touching. Watching them continue to make sounds to help each other out,
and the emotional connection of each person is more and more.
It
was clear that the love of the family is more precious because the surrounding
environment is so dangerous. After seeing this, we don't care about whether we
will be scared or not, but whether their family can survive. Compared to "The
Mist" or "The Walking Dead" mostly describes the dark side of
humanity. The positive glory emitted by "A Quiet Place" from family
emotions is the most precious thing.
★Those
sounds
After
watching the movie, I heard someone say that the sound engineer is really
relaxed, but the opposite is true. The sound effect should account for the highest
production cost of the movie.
Because
the movie is so quiet, every small sound is even more important. How to
eliminate all kinds of interference during shooting, including unnecessary
sounds such as wind and human voices, and interact with the characters in the
film, as well as many in the cornfield. The combination of sounds such as
shuttles, wood or sand on the ground is the specialty of the mixer. The time
and effort behind it is definitely not as simple as we think.

★Conclusion
Now
think about it. Although there were a lot of bugs in the movie, such as why
they couldn’t get near the waterfall, or where their electricity came from. But
because they were very entertaining, these unreasonable ones were ignored by me
immediately.
The
design attracted my attention, such as not wearing shoes without patting
noises, paving the road with white sand, wooden floors to avoid stepping, or
wooden boxes specially designed for babies. The details showed that the
director was responsible for the story. Attentively, if you really want to say
that something makes me angry, it was probably why monsters don't step on that
nail. As for the final open ending, it was more ingenious.
The
movie stopped after the mother and daughter saw the other two monsters rushing,
giving the audience more imagination, but I believe the expression of the
director when the two looked at each other has already given enough answers,
there was a kind of confidence and hope to face the problem.
On
the whole, "A Quiet Place" set a new height for low-cost horror
movies after "Get Out". The tension created by it was full of
tension. Emily Blunt, John Krasinski and the two child stars performed
accurately. When in place, light and eyes and body language are used to express
deep-seated fears, a perfect interpretation of what "silence is better
than sound", and the family element not only doesn’t defocus the movie but
also among them, the responsibility of parents for their children raised the
overall realm a lot. Well, that’s it, “A Quiet Place” is the crystallization of
the complement of the thrilling monster and the warm family.
