A Quiet Place – I have heard SO MUCH about how terrifying this movie is! “Scariest horror film in years,” they said! I knew going in not to get anything to eat or drink because the theater would be silent and luckily the theater was almost empty. I was fully prepared to be scared, but this turned out to be just kind of creepy. Really, I wanted to know more about the world and how it got that way! But honestly, once the mom was revealed to be pregnant (at 400+ days into the apocalypse – not a spoiler by the way, she’s pregnant in the trailers), I just couldn’t bring myself to care about the characters anymore. Head’s up: in a world where noise-seeking monsters will kill anything that makes a peep, MAYBE DON’T HAVE A BABY, especially with other kids to keep safe. Just my two cents! (2.5/5 stars)
Permission – I’ve been waiting to get my hands on a copy of this movie for months, despite its low rating. Honestly, I came to watch Dan Stevens and I was not disappointed. I thought the movie had a really interesting premise and felt super invested in the characters and their relationship. Even the minor characters won me over! I understand why a lot of people hated this movie, but I really enjoyed it. Really though, I’d watch Dan Stevens watch paint dry. (4/5 stars)
