: 90% (49 reviews) with 7.10 in average rating
Critics consensus: A nerve-wracking continuation of its predecessor, A Quiet Place Part II expands the terrifying world of the franchise without losing track of its heart.
: 73/100 (24 critics)
As with other movies, the scores are set to change as time passes. Meanwhile, I'll post some short reviews on the movie.
Taking on solo screenwriting credit in his taut follow-up, director John Krasinski again foregrounds that disorienting premise of a modern world in which noise can get you killed, as the same characters this time desperately struggle to protect one another without their fallen paterfamilias. It’s another breathless chamber piece, expertly crafted to pack dread into every nerve-rattling sound.
-
The conceit that drives this burgeoning franchise — aliens, but they hear really well — makes for effective enough horror and tension, but Krasinski’s very real, very deep affection for the family he has placed in the middle of all this is what seems destined to keep truly growing. As his chops as an action and horror director have only increased, care of those natty set pieces and plenty of real ingenuity, Krasinski hasn’t lost sight of the human drama that makes it all work. Krasinski never meant to be a horror guy, but he’s always known what scares people.
-: B+
Simmonds is an excellent performer: bold, confident and forthright, holding her own opposite the alpha-emoting presence of Murphy. In the end, it’s impossible not to see these gross creatures as Covid metaphors, and impossible not to delight in their comeuppance. What a pleasure to see a big, brash picture like this on the big screen.
-: 4/5
Krasinski assembles a recognizable geography that makes the introduction of an off-shore colony, as well as a band of survivors who look like they just ambled out of “The Hills Have Eyes,” seem within reach of the Abbotts as they fight both to stay alive and to repel the alien menace. With “A Quiet Place Part II,” the actor-turned-filmmaker has grown in confidence and skill, creating a sequel that’s at least as riveting if not more so than its predecessor.
-
The new “Quiet Place” doesn’t do anything fancy nor does it need to: Adding a few new wrinkles and busting out of the “Alien”-style claustrophobia bent, the sequel is a solid outing that’ll sound good enough for folks who, like the Abbots, are also venturing out in a world that feels a little changed.
-: 3/4
As an experience, “A Quiet Place Part II” is still riveting and intense and should check all the boxes for most audiences, especially in the “I just wanna be gripped and entertained” post-pandemic age. For those looking for a little more depth and soul and a movie to fully coalesce in the end? Well, you might have to wait for the next chapter for some true thematic and emotional closure, but still, it’ll be hard to argue this won’t be an escapist thrill for most audiences in theaters, at least.
-: B/B+
Whisper it. A Quiet Place Part II might lack the smarts and novelty of its predecessor but it serves up strong set- pieces, Millicent Simmonds shines and Krasinski remains a director to watch.
-: 3/5
But when A Quiet Place Part II really focuses inward, at the deep loss and rebuilding that the Abbotts are enduring as the world continues to crumble, it's a triumph. The way Krasinski manages to build visual chaos with such a vivid human core at its center suggests A Quiet Place actually has the staying power of a major modern horror epic.
-: A-
Between Simmonds’ superb lead, the suspense, the slivers of hope, A Quiet Place Part II is worth making a noise for. Just pipe down in the cinema.
-: 4/5
PLOT
Following the deadly events at home, the Abbott family must now face the terrors of the outside world as they continue their fight for survival in silence.

This is a place for fans of various creative works to share theories, interpretations and speculation related to that particular creative work.
This post is to suggest that Murphy’s character and Blunt’s character were in a relationship prior to the invasion, and prior to John Krasinski, in which Regan was born. Emmett, also before the invasion, was a deadbeat dad or abandoned Blunt and Regan for whatever reasons. John Krasinski later steps into the role as father upon marrying Blunt’s character. My assumption is based on John Krasinki’s strained interaction with Emmett in the opener; Regan’s telling him “remember how to sign”; her “you’ll never be him [Krasinski as the surrogate father]” speech; Emily Blunt’s heated exchange with Cillian Murphy about how he was so close but never once thought about seeing if they were alive (mainly referring to his and her daughter, whom he seems to have disconnected in favor of his new wife and son); Emmett’s emphasis on rescuing Regan. It adds a ton of layer to the story and seems to be a redemption arc for Cillian Murphy. I know Part III starts filming next year, so I’ll be curious to see if the hunch is accurate.
