Scary as all get out of here. Great to add to my movie collection.

Dolby atmos sounds really good, I love it I hope they make another sequels or prequel

For the characters in "A Quiet Place," the old adage "silence is golden" is the rule of the land -- if you want to survive. A taut exercise in suspense that has a beating heart at its center, the film is one of the best sci-fi/horror tales the genre has to offer.

There is a lot to say about A Quiet Place, the third directorial effort from John Krasinski (The Office) starring real-life wife Emily Blunt in their first on-screen collaboration (and as a married couple no less), but more than anything this is a movie that encapsulates the equal amount of unexpected fear as compared to the expected amount of joy that comes along with becoming and being a parent. It is something society doesn't often prepare you for and that you don't hear much about when embarking on this particular chapter in your life. People tell you how it will change your life, certainly, and how it will do so for the better as well as how tough things will be at different times for different reasons, but no one ever seems to warn expectant parents just how much fear will encompass their lives and in what are otherwise seemingly normal of situations. This isn't what A Quiet Place is about outright, but as the father to a three year-old daughter that is what A Quiet Place is most explicitly about to me. It is a summation and tense execution of what it feels like to solely be responsible for the lives of those that are dependent upon you whether they see it that way or not; they simply expect you to be there for them because that has always been your role without a second thought to the worry and fear that role might encompass and carry. A child's perspective is difficult to re-adjust to the point they understand the full spectrum of various emotions we as human beings are capable of experiencing, but there is something inherent when becoming a parent where your brain automatically switches to all-of-a-sudden be weary of any potential dangers to your child while at the same time coming to the realization your strengths and abilities might not be enough to protect them from whatever the world throws at them. Granted, A Quiet Place is this times fifty-seven and represents the worst-case scenario of what are most of the time internalized fears, but that is what makes the film so effective and ultimately, so moving. At the center of the story is a family unit that has been fractured by grief in the midst of having to adjust to this new way of life thanks to an extra-terrestrial threat whose origins remain a mystery sans some quick glances at a few newspaper clippings, but the context doesn't matter as much as the concepts that bound forth from its simple, but intriguing premise. Through all of this, Krasinski hones in on what makes the premise work so well, that being the grief, necessary coping, and inherent fear that inevitably comes with making ourselves vulnerable enough to care so much about others. Realizing these emotions and this feeling of need to protect and shelter those you are responsible for even when you have no idea how you might accomplish as much into a tight, ninety-minute actualization that will have you holding your breath and remaining as still as the reflections we see on screen.

I love watching something new and unique. And that is exactly what A Quiet Place is. You would think that it being so quiet they would try to overuse jump scares for cheap thrills. They don't. It is used really well to build tension and suspense. 5 stars well earned.

I gave this a 4-star rating but would probably push it to a 3.5/3.75 if you could do incremental ratings. Not a bad flick but it had some plot flaws to me which were a bit difficult to overcome the "suspension of belief" mode necessary for movies. However, I thought the acting was good and that it was cast well and it was shot well too... I think they should have tied this one on to the Cloverfield franchise.

This is a solid movie that will get under your skin. The sound design is amazing and in 4K the picture quality is insane. I did not know much about this movie before watching and recommend not watching the preview until after seeing the movie.

After not understanding the art on the steelbook at first site (first time watching at home), I gained more interest in the overall steelbook packaging after watching the movie. It’s a really well put movie with a unique twist in concept. A must have!

A Quiet Place is a solidly entertaining horror movie with good characters and admirable technical efforts. It’s not as visually immersive and mimd-bending as something like Hereditary, but it’s never trying to be. As such, this 4K Blu Ray isn’t demo worthy, but it is nice looking, and enhances the immersive quality of the movie. Definitely recommended to horror fans.

I absolutely loved this movie in the theater, I watched it 3 times and KNEW I wanted to pay the extra and get it in 4K. Visually, you might not need 4K but the more immersed you get into this movie, the more levels of epic-ness are experienced.

This was our first 4K Ultra DVD that we watched on our new 4K TV, and it was IMPRESSIVE! The movie's visuals were pretty beautiful (country scenes), and the monsters were pretty cool, too. The movie was great, and viewing it in 4K was awesome!

I thought when I saw the previews that being TOTALLY QUIET for almost the whole movie wouldn’t work. Boy, was I TOTALLY WRONG. Nothing but action at envy turn. Totally cool aliens and touching moments. Awesome movie. Worth being quiet for.

Love this film! LOVE IT! Can't recommend it highly enough. Great writing, performance, direction, everything was near perfection. The 4k is fantastic with a lot of the movie being in the dark and a focus being on the auditory presentation.

My favorite movie series, John and his wife did great in the the series opener

A Quite Place was one of my favorite films of 2018, so when I saw it was available on steelbook, I had to jump on it. My favorite thing is that the cover bumps out like it's actually been scratched. My favorite steelbook by far!

Great movie. Very well written and amazing acting. It is a family movie with monsters in it. The movie is mostly silent where the family speaks thru sign language which is a part of the story, and there are subtitles.

I wasn't sure how this movie would actually turn out. I never heard anyone talk about the movie. I saw it on sale and took a chance. The movie turned out to be pretty interesting to me. I honestly enjoyed watching it.

In regards to how scary this was it not but I'm not classifying how great this was by how scary but on how well this movie was directed. The steelbook is great on its own, I really have nothing negative to say.

A Quiet Place is well worth an evening in with popcorn and soft drinks. My version is 4K Ultra HD and the picture is phenomenal. Playing it on my Sony OLED television makes it even more fun. The ending is great.

DVD, BD, or 4K this film is a much watch in the complete dark and silence. The 4K doesn't disappoint, but it's still a film that depends on the environment you watch it in. The steelbook art is nice as well.
