Manage episode 432962247 series 3541973
Today we're sharing our thoughts on the alien invasion / monster horror film, "A Quiet Place: Day One." Following a late-stage cancer patient (played by Lupita Nyong'o) on what she believes to be her last visit to New York City, all heck breaks loose when an apocalyptic alien invasion lands in Manhattan. Also starring Joseph Quinn, Alex Wolff, and Djimon Hounsou, we get an up-close view of the disaster as Samira weaves through a broken NYC in search of one last pizza slice (I'm not kidding). Though simple in construction, the film is emotionally rich -- showing people organizing after tragedy, bonding through proximity, and uniting around the love of a plot-critical cat named Frodo. Shelter in place, and keep the noise below an audible decibel, as we review. "A Quiet Place: Day One." Let's get into it!
