    It really isn't a spoiler. Part of it is in both main trailers.

      As for the rest:

      It isnt having to soundproof that is the issue, it is the fact that having the baby itself is guaranteed to create a lot of noise. I get it, they are sad because their kid got killed so they felt the need to endanger the rest of their kids by having another but still...the chances she doesnt get killed when going into labor are pretty small. They dropped a lamp in a basement and that was enough to cause all sorts of crap imagine a woman with no drugs or doctors giving birth in a complete unsterile and silent area. The amount of noise she would make and how easy it would be for the monsters to hear it would be off the charts. The parents were morons and Daddy deserved his stupid fate.

      Honestly the kids are the best part of the story...
      Yet she gave birth and didn't make a sound, even with a creature right there. Mothers can do amazing things when it comes to the protection of their cubs.

        No she didnt. She screamed it just got muffled by the fireworks that just so happened to go off right then. (you even hear it for a second before they cut away) You hear her that is why it is supposed to be sad when Daddy walks in and sees the blood in the tub.

          I'll have to watch it again (at home, no way I'm sitting through that again in a theater) because I missed part of that. As for the coincidences and characters making dumb decisions, we wouldn't have a movie industry without them.

          In my original review I had given this a good grade but the more I've thought about it the less I like it. It would still be fresh on the Tomatometer but only barely.

            Yeah the criticisms I make make it sound way more harsh than I mean to. It gets a B in my mind. Worth seeing in the theaters but nothing revolutionary. I think Krasinski did a good job directing but the script needed lots of work. The choice to be silent made the movie both slow (too slow at times) but also the few times you hear a sound it does totally jolt you which is a very cool effect.

              If we’re truly going to be snowed in this weekend when bad driving conditions I might trudge to the theater a mile away and see it

                Not a bad plan. Definitely see it in the theater I think the silence will be lost watching at home unless you make a super effort. (and your dogs wont let that happen )

                I wonder what MoviePass will get me to see today. Right now I either see Beirut cause it I think it looks interesting, see Rampage just cause I dont want to pay for it or see Blockers just cause. Rampage and Blockers should be around next week but Beirut sees to be in limited release around here. I want to see the Kennedy flick but Angie vetoed so I can go with her. (she did the same with Black Panther and we still havent seen that)

                  I actually liked that part of the script. That was what the fireworks were intended for all along: to muffle her sound so she could give birth and then move the baby to the basket, where it would live inside a box until it could control its noises; so say... 6 years. When the fireworks went off I thought, "oh, so they have thought about it. OK then." But when they followed it up with Moses I thought, "oh for f-cks sake..."

                  This was another example of characters who were very smart in some ways and hopelessly stupid in other ways.

                  Since we're in spoiler mode, I missed something: how did the bug get down there anyway? Through the water pipe? Because if the aperture was wide enough that's more awful planning. But what can you expect from Jim? Irony won't save you now, as-shole.

                    To my mind the single best most spooky thing was that our theater was sold out and dead silent. It really helped pull the tension out of the screen and into the theater: every director's dream. Even better, it was an Alamo Drafthouse so there were servers stealthing around getting and delivering food, so the pressure to be as quiet as possible was beautiful.

                    But really, beyond that gimmick, it was merely cromulent.

                      Plan this weekend is to go to either Isle of Dogs or The Death of Stalin. Probably the latter, which I have been really looking forward to.

                        I am not sure, it probably followed the sound of the water that was leaking in so maybe it just floated along with it. (they can swim obviously) It is sort of like when the Xenomorph ends up on the ship at the end of Alien you never see how it just is there.

                        I think that was one thing that took away from the script...the only thing we know of the aliens is they hunt by sound. Do they always work alone or do they hunt in packs? Do they communicate? Little things like that are important in my mind

                        And the Fireworks were a great plan...I was just mocking how Jim finds his kids and makes it back literally just in the nick of time. Stuff like that always makes me chuckle. It doesnt ruin movies for me, just makes me smile a bit and shake my head.


                        I want to see Death of Stalin too just not sure if I want to see it today or next Monday.

                            My thought was that when the freakin' DOD figured out they were blind and hunted by sound if they didn't start messing around with sound (masking, jamming, feedback, etc) then we really didn't get any value for the trillions we poured down that hole for the last century. I mean, the as-sholes over at the Company still have a DS&T, right?

                            Basically, if the military had air superiority and couldn't figure out how to take the bugs out then it's all over anyway. But hey, other resolutions that were stupid:

                              I'm curious how it ends.

They didnt take all the stupidity of the last one (aka Chris Pratt and the Island of Bad Ideas and Acting) and do it all again only now they have to rescue the dinosaurs right?
