Though Emmett insists it’s nothing, Regan works out that it’s actually a message and the signal is coming from an island. Rather it’s a smart continuation of the family’s journey and a look at how the world has evolved since the initial invasion (we begin with a flashback to day one) with an ending that mirrors the end of the first A Quiet Place.Īt Emmett’s place, Regan gets a signal on the radio-it’s the song “Beyond The Sea” By Bobby Darin playing on a loop. It’s a smart move: not only does it keep the audience in a constant state of anxiety worrying about what’s going to happen to one party or another, but it also marks the movie out as significantly different to the first film.Ī Quiet Place Part II doesn’t feel like a ‘same again’ cash in. With Marcus’s leg severely injured by Emmett’s bear trap, Evelyn needs to find medical supplies to stop the wound from getting infected, thus leading to a plot structure which sees three separate groups (Marcus and the baby, Regan and Emmett, and Evelyn on her own) experiencing different kinds of peril concurrently. Before long they find Cillian Murphy’s Emmett, a man ravaged by tragedy and who needs coaxing back from his enforced isolation-which happens after he is forced to embark on a mission with Regan. Picking up the morning after the first film ended, Evelyn ( Emily Blunt), Regan (Millicent Simmonds), and Marcus (Noah Jupe), with the new born baby who they keep in a box, have to abandon their destroyed farmstead and head into the world looking for other signs of life. But now A Quiet Place Part II has finally arrived on the big screen and it’s a noisier, more action-packed offering than the last. John Krasinski’s follow up to his breakout horror hit A Quiet Place was due to hit cinemas in March last year, before COVID hit and took out the cinemas with it. Contains major spoilers for A Quiet Place Part II.
