There has been quite a debate stirring recently about which is better. John Krasinski's 2018 Horror Film: A Quiet Place, and Susanne Bier's 2018 Thriller film Bird Box. While the mainline performances by John Krasinski and Sandra Bullock are great. There is a lot more to these two films than meets the eye.

A Quiet Place follows John Krasinski's character, Lee Abbot, and the other Abbots Played by Emily Blunt, Millicent Simmonds (which by the way, she is actually a def actress which adds this almost incredible sense of realism to her performance) and Noah Jupe and Cade Woodward. The Abbot family is trying to survive a post Apocalyptic world in their farmhouse, with the world being overran by monsters that can kill you if you make a loud enough sound without another sound thats louder in the near distance.

Bird Box follows Sandra Bullock's character Mallory and an ensemble of other characters that all have to survive this thing that is not necessarily explained, but they can't look at it, or it makes non-insane people want to commit suicide. The most important part of this movie is her and the two kids trying to survive, I felt that was the most intense and just flat out awesome part of the movie. It was extremely tense. Although there were a few really nice scenes. Besides that it just felt bloated, to be frank.

Thematically, they both held their own themes down pretty well. A Quiet Place, is all about family, and how could a family survive without being able to communicate in the easiest way? and the other, for Bird box. Well, that one believes interpretation also is ambiguity. Some say that it is American's being blind to racism, among other differing themes. Personally I believe that it is a metaphor for realistically what they see is pain. What hurts them the most in life. It shows what they don't wanna see the most, like loss or sorrow or whatever the such.

Personally, I believe that AQP holds its own better than BB. It just had less storylines but it felt more defined than BB. But like that, I pose the question, Which film do you prefer more? A Quiet Place? or Bird Box?
