Mary Poppins out about 10 months after Quiet Place.

Finally got around to watching this but I couldn't suspend disbelief enough to appreciate the movie. The monsters just had too big of a weakness for me to believe they were a threat at all.
I mean they run full speed at any noise. That's about the easiest thing to trap/kill that I can think of. There's no way humanity would be wiped out by something that basic. They really needed to develop the monsters more IMO. Give them some intelligence that would make them more believable IMO.

I appreciate the so-called weakness within the monster culture - you know, the one thing that saves our hero - but I'm not too certain that we can't find that in the majority of monster/sci-fi flicks.
In Aliens - perhaps the most beloved modern sci-fi flick in recent film history - why doesn't the Mother Bug kill Ripley during their final battle.
I mean she could have easily stabbed Ripley with her tail...right through
the open area of the loading dock loader frame. Obviously it was written into the script that Ellen is to survive, come on she's the hero.
What was it in Independence Day - a computer virus!?
The Walking Dead - they walk after you, so run away. (One of the reasons why I'm not a big fan. I'm not into zombies, well, these zombies.
I could go on, but I can see why some wouldn't necessarily get excited about the premise of the movie. For me, Signs was more about the suspense of the unknown. Once I saw the monsters, well I was not impressed. Same thing for
I Am Legend. Total disappointment.
There were some minor flaws in Predator, but it continues to be one of my top sci-fi flicks. Still, I really did appreciate the film's approach and execution. Not only that, Krasinski found an audience, A Quiet Place 2 is being written as we speak.
My question to you is: How would you have overcome that flaw? How would you solve the problem of savage aliens eating the locals?

Throw a radio into the grand canyon? If they survive the fall and climb out how about tape a cell phone to a live grenade? Pull the pin, throw, call the phone.
Surely the government could put some hire yield explosives to use in the same manner.

LOL... Awesome.
You just turned A Quiet Place into a 2 minute short film.

Their Armored bodies made them bulletproof. Was there evidence that a grenade on their outer Armor would injure them?
If they were able to negotiate dense wood at lightning speed without bumping into steel bridge structure, methinks they could avoid Canyon environs incompatible with their viability.
Your answers seem substandard.
How would you defeat the Aliens in Edge of Tomorrow?

Everything I need to know about killing aliens and monsters I learned from Tremors.

I enjoyed this movie even if it was a little silly at times
