A Quiet Place Part II builds upon its predecessor superbly and joins a very exclusive club of amazing horror movie sequels. I would recommend this film be watched in a cinema to really appreciate the atmosphere and tension built up throughout it. The performances are fantastic within the film and as watchers we are able to connect with them on a very real level; the emotions and pain the characters go through are extremely believable. The investment into the development of the characters is also noteworthy with us as viewers really getting an understanding into their personalities. The horror is balanced perfectly between occasional jump-scare, in-your-face moments and gradual tension build up. There is very little to critique with this film and its only issue is that it suffers from being a horror sequel in that we are aware of the threat posed and therefore the element of mystique holds less power. However, that being said, as horror sequels go this is a stand out and is a must for any fans of the first film or horror in general.
