A Quiet Place is extremely well done, non-stop suspense

I highly recommend it, and in fact recommend that you see it in a theater before it's too late (I estimate you have two weeks at most.)  The reason the theater experience is preferred IMO is not because of some amazing cinematography or awesome effects, but rather because it changes the experience.

As you probably know, the movie follows a single family in a post-apocalyptic world where the monsters will get you if you make any sound (well, too much sound.)  As such, the movie is very quiet for much of the time, which then brings the theater environment around you into focus.  The guy two rows back grabbing a handful of popcorn sounds like a freight train.  It's an odd crossover experience.

Back to the movie, its plot is very by-the-numbers (beyond its highly original premise), but the formula involved is time-tested to work, and the movie executes the formula deftly and smart.  The small cast is outstanding, and the direction is surprisingly confident.  Very, very tense throughout.  At points the suspense becomes overwhelming.  I personally think Hitchcock would have approved.

This is the most non-politically correct movie you are likely to see for a while, too, if that matters to you.  By that I don't mean politically incorrect, I mean that no effort is put into stocking it with PC messaging.  It's quietly conservative, in fact (pun intended).  And as a bonus, it's barely 90 minutes long.  I took the family to a 7:10 showing and we were back at the house by 9:00, and we were greatly entertained in the interim.
