I just got home from seeing it, you posted spoilers in the title so I wont use the spoiler tag here to save everyone from staring at a black wall. Here we go

Overall it was a decent film, it can be lifted up because its shakig up the genre and its different from anything to come out recently. But I have some major issues with the plot.

The boards in the basement say they are armored he doesnt know the weakness. This leads us to obviously believe they cannot be destroyed by our conventional weapons(which the end proves isnt true). Why would militaries have not just had people sit in tanks and blow these beings to bits whit helicopters above raining down hell on them? If one single shotgun blast from a civilian shotgun can kill one how could this have happened in the first place?

The boy plays with the toy and this being comes with the precision of a guided middle immediately from god knows how far and destroys him. Yet when its a more dire situation they confidently lose that precision and confidence? Why?

I understand they covered water and louder noises drowning out the other noises to remain safe. But, Im sorry, a baby crying 6 inched from that things face in the basement and that piddly water stream is NOT going to cover up that sound. And can we talk about how she just didnt wake up while that thing clearly ripped a hole in her house and then tore the mattress away and jumped into 3 feet of water and all the while the baby is silent and she doesnt wake up? Doesnt make sense.

In the silo that being literally just ripped right through the silo wall, but it couldnt get through that truck roof? Having said that, if it cant even take out a flimsy decaying truck roof how has the military not killed them with all their armored vehicles?

Really it feels like I watched the middle of a pretty good movie, it really would have benefited at least from a small flashback to give us some context of what actually happened. The ending felt like a cop out too.

And I know theyve never come out and said if they were aliens/monsters for a reason, but Im going to go there so humor me. These thugs behave like wild animals, not intelligent beings. They dont seem like they would b capable of organizing and building inter dimensional space travel.... not to mention if they could their sensitive hearing would have made such travel impossible in the first place. Whats their purpose? They arent taking over, we dont see them feed so they dont do it to satiate huger, they seem like they are just twilight zoned embodiments of of people who always go around shushing.

Anyway, I know I kind of tore it open but it was still enjoyable, if you dont think. The more you think about it the more unbelievable it becomes. Still worth a watch though, I was entertained.
