A Quiet Place Part I was lauded for its masterful sound design and suspense. Returning to its post-apocalyptic world overrun with sound-sensitive aliens, John Krasinski's sequel looks to have recaptured and expanded the elements that put him on the director's map with his debut. He's got more than one great movie in him, that's for sure.
Paramount's first critic screenings for A Quiet Place Part II, which sees Emily Blunt, Millicent Simmonds and Noah Jupe all return as the Abbott family, have wrapped up and Twitter reviews are slinking out. The reactions have been overwhelmingly positive so far, though as always you'll have to wait for the full reviews to arrive before the final verdict.
A Quiet Place Part II tiptoes into cinemas March 19 in the UK and Australia, and March 20 in the US. It sees the Abbotts in the aftermath of dad Lee's (Krasinski) death, with new threats to deal with that aren't necessarily alien. This time around, the brilliant cast is joined by the equally silent Cillian Murphy and Djimon Hounsou.

"A Quiet Place Part II is not at all what I expected," Meagan Navarro writes, "and that's a great thing. A very creative sequel that goes to some unexpected and satisfying places. Bravo Millicent Simmonds."

Writes Mike Ryan, "A Quiet Place Part II is "Tension: The Movie." I have a stomach ache now from how tense this movie is."
A QUIET PLACE PART II is “Tension: The Movie.” I have a stomach ache now from how tense this movie is. (Also, this turned out to be a surprisingly great Cillian Murphy movie.)

#AQuietPlacePartII is a great sequel that expands the world. Had me on the edge of my seat the entire time. Movie is an hour and 45 minutes and when it ended wanted more. Is it too early to talk about #AQuietPlace3?

A QUIET PLACE PART II: A worthy, world-expanding followup that builds on the original and finds its own thrills, chills, and emotions in the process. Audiences should still be banned from eating crunchy snacks during any and all screenings.

Damn, #AQuietPlace Part II rocks! Honestly, just as tense and terrifying as the first one. There are some sequences in this film that are a masterclass in suspense. Bravo, @johnkrasinski. So good, so emotional, too.

The use of sound in #AQuietPlace Part 2 is still so vital. In what could easily have been a retread, @johnkrasinski finds unbelievably creative ways to keep the movie’s niche from getting stale. The entire cast is fantastic and it’s riveting from top to bottom. @quietplacemovie

How does @johnkrasinski already have Spielberg-level chops?? #AQuietPlace 2 is fantastic, and deserves to be a MASSIVE hit. Finds exciting ways to further explore this terrifying environment, and is bigger, but still TENSE AS HELL.

Kudos to John Krasinski and co: #AQuietPlace Part II delivers. Millicent Simmonds is my new Ripley — owns the film. (And yes, some great scares.)

So #AQuietPlacePartII was incredibly tense & builds upon the story from the first film in some unexpected/inspired ways. Cillian Murphy RULES & Millicent Simmonds really comes into her own her with a truly phenomenal performance.
