A Quiet Place [2018] (directed by John Krasinski, story by Bryan Woods and Scott Beck, screenplay by Bryan Woods, Scott Beck and John Krasinski) is, supposedly some sort of a triumph, and does certainly keep one's attention ... so long as one does not think about it too much ;-/
The story takes place in the near future, a number of years after an alien invasion and long after said aliens have effectively "won" -- what's left of humanity is scattered and deathly terrified of said aliens. This is even though the aliens look simply like GIANT unarmed ('cept for their claws / teeth) ANTS ... as "technologically fearsome" as say ... a grizzly bear with an exoskeleton and six legs. :-)
Further, these ant-like aliens, who incidentally are REALLY, REALLY UGLY, are also apparently BLIND, though they can HEAR really really well an evolutionary trait that would be almost certainly useless to them IN THE VAST EMPTINESS OF INTERSTELLAR SPACE or for that matter ANY PLANET OTHER THAN THEIR OWN (almost every foreign planet's atmosphere would be toxic to them, as it would be toxic to us).
So one's left wondering how the heck these BLIND giant ant-like creatures, who incidentally appear to be incapable of (or uninterested in) communicating with anyone 'cept (perhaps) between themselves, could nevertheless master _interstellar space travel_ and defeat our ... doors ;-), to say nothing of electrified fences, to say even less of machine guns, to say even less than that of "insecticides" (chemical weapons) or finally almost nothing at all of nuclear weapons.
So what the heck is going on here? We in the audience are invited to FEAR GIANT, UGLY, UTTERLY UNREASONABLE "ALIENS" who simply come to OUR WORLD to DESTROY IT for no apparent reason other than that they can.
Soo ... Build the Wall, build the Wall!
-- zero stars.
