Movies like a quiet place5/27/2023 I found the scenes with Ally constantly using her tablet extremely unrealistic. I didn’t feel that connection with any of the characters in ‘The Silence.’ We felt what each character was going through and we rooted for them. John Krasinski’s character, though, was the strong patriarch of the family in ‘A Quiet Place,’ who was admired and respected by his children and trusted to protect and shelter them. I know his character is supposed to be passive and non-confrontational – the opposite of John Corbett’s character, Glenn – but how are we, the viewer, expected to believe that Hugh was going to save the family and lead them to a safer place? A few times in the film I found myself wondering why he didn’t just grab the gun or a weapon in the beginning to save his family? It would have saved him from the bad things that happened later. I also found Stanley Tucci’s character to be annoyingly boring. Also, Ally is played by an actress with normal hearing ability, whereas Regan in ‘A Quiet Place’ is played by Millicent Simmonds, who is deaf in real life, adding much more depth to her character. If it weren’t for the fact that sometimes you would see the family members sign to eachother, you often forget that one of them is hearing impaired. In ‘The Silence,’ the family encounters a strange cult of people that dominates the latter part of the film.įor instance, Ally has full speech and lip-reading ability due to the late stage of her hearing loss, so we often forget that she is even deaf. In ‘A Quiet Place,’ we don’t see any other people in the film except in one scene where they encounter an old man, and the scene didn’t last long.Regan in ‘A Quiet Place’ had been deaf all her life and uses a cochlear implant in ‘The Silence,’ the daughter only lost her hearing 3 years prior, when she was 13, so she speaks fluently and has no hearing aids or devices.The creatures in ‘A Quiet Place’ are aliens (the origins of which we get more explanation on in Part II), while the bat-like creatures in ‘The Silence” are unearthed by cave researchers and theorized to have evolved over hundreds of years into what they are now.The creatures in ‘A Quiet Place’ move on the ground the creatures in ‘The Silence’ are bat-like and fly. ![]()
