After the very good taste that we had after the first

A Silent Place

, a thriller that was played with the horror film, and in which there were only a few lines of dialogue, what to expect from a continuation?

It was needed?

The fans wanted to see what the Abbott family was left with, attacked by sinister monsters that attack at the slightest sound, and the producers, raise more money (the original cost $ 17 million and reaped 350 million worldwide).

Cillian Murphy ("Peaky Blinders" on Netflix) joins Emily Blunt in the sequel.

Since Regan, the eldest daughter, is hard of hearing, the Abbotts resolved in advance to communicate without emanating sounds, and by using sign language.

They were fixing it quite, quite well.

Evelyn's cochlear implant, for example, also serves to ward off beasts by amplifying their sound frequencies.

Better not lose it.

The farm is no longer a safe place, and you have to find another refuge.

Daddy Lee (Krasinski,

Emily Blunt's

husband in real life

, and director of the first and second parts) is gone, and the end of the first part had left us in suspense.

Suspense is what abounded in the 2018 premiere, and also in this one.

Of course, the effect is not the same, because what seemed original, when turning to the same issue, does not tire, at all, but it does not have the same result either.

They start in the same place

The two films begin almost in the same place, but in two different timelines (those who saw the first, pay attention when the father passes through the market, what is seen on a shelf ...).

These aliens that the Abbott, Costellos, and all the families in town and beyond are escaping from, have very high-pitched ears, so there is no sound or noise to be made, because having no eyes, they are driven by what they listen to catch and kill their prey.

They are eyeless predators, because they come from a planet where there would be no light.

And they arrive from meteorites, fleeing their planet when it is destroyed.

Millicent Simmonds, who is deaf, had acted in Todd Haynes's "Wonderstruck."

The first attack - which predates what we saw when the first movie started, meaning Part II starts out as a prequel to Part I, and then becomes a sequel - begins when the Abbotts are seeing how Marcus, the one who He was the youngest son, he's at bat in a baseball game.

What happens is, almost, I copied from the attack of the

Jaws

of

Spielberg

in Amityville Beach, the holiday of July 4th.

Everyone to run.

In this sequel the children of the family have a preponderant role.

It cannot be said that the Abbotts have not lived in a bubble (sanitary or not), but the time has come to go out and find another shelter.

Now, in what would be the present time, Evelyn (Emily Blunt), Regan (Millicent Simmonds), Marcus (Noah Jupe) and the newborn baby, set out to find a new place in the world.

And that's where they'll run into Emmett (Irishman

Cillian Murphy

, Thomas Shelby in

Peaky Blinde

rs), who is more cautious than they are, because people are freaking out.

The confinement is also one of the themes that John Krasinski's film addresses.

Nobody trusts anybody.

And there will be samples to spare.

Emmett (Irish Cillian Murphy) is hiding something?
