It's basically a wannabe M Night Shyamalan movie but worse in every aspect. If A Quiet Place was actually directed by M Night Shyamalan (which it would have probably ended up being better tbh) people would say it's his second worst movie right behind the Last Airbender.

Agreed. The idea that a woman has to give birth in a setting without making a peep or risk dying instantly is pretty bottom tier writing for a horror film.

A Quiet Place is pretty overrated, but I think its still good. A dumb post apocalyptic alien movie requires some decent suspension of disbelief and plot contrivances. If you don't like that you really need to find a new genre.

The premise is definitely stupid because they know they can go to the waterfall and be safe, so you think they would just generate constant noise around the house. That said a lot of horror movies have dumb premises and the film had some fun scenes.

I thought it was a fun movie. As someone said you kinda have to suspend your disbelief when it comes to horror movies because characters making bad choices is kind of a staple in them. And using CinemaSins as an example of poor writing is kinda silly since they generally nitpick the smallest things for entertainment value.
