I Think We're Alone Now starring Peter Dinklage and Elle Fanning. The world has ended and one lonely man curates his small hometown and it's library until his solitary life is interrupted by a stranger.

Not sure what to think about this one. I had some weird vibes between the two leads, felt the movie lacked something essential, and was possibly trying to portray view point(s) from a perspective that just aren't me.

I like to judge a movie such as this by what I might remember from it or maybe what I could learn from it's subtlety. Maybe take in a small thought that I can think on for awhile and kick around in my brain.

However in this moment I don't think there is anything in this movie that reached me in any of those ways. 2 out of 5 stars.

A Quiet Place 2. This was a sequel that lacked depth, connections, and emotion. They played some loud and tense music but it didn't make up for the many things lacking.

I watched it and didn't turn it off but it just missed the mark in a big way. 2.5 out of 5.

You pretty much summed up my exact feelings on this one. I enjoyed the first one quite a bit; however, this was a sequel that nobody asked for or needed.

Your mileage may vary.

Most of the reviews have been positive, hence my high expectations going into the movie.

B

It wasn't bad. I enjoyed myself and that's what matters the most, right?

I hadn't watched any of the MI or Jack Reacher movies either. Not really my thing.

The action in this one was well done, not over extended, and did not have the mega CGI moments which typically leave me bored and uninterested.

Glad you enjoyed it! Seems too be a smash hit. Wish I could get into it; however, "modern" Tom Cruise movies just aren't my cup of tea. Enjoyed his stuff from the 80's and early 90's; however, I just cannot get into the recent shoot em' up franchises such as the Mission Impossible, Jack Reacher, etc. I have seen a few of his newer movies that were ok; however, they seem to be more one-off type projects where he can take some risks rather than a series of films for a franchise. I'm thinking of things like Collateral or Edge of Tomorrow, which I truly enjoyed.
