Being a Netflix production, I did not have high expectations due to their track record for feature films. Luckily, I enjoyed it for the most part. I have read other reviews comparing it to "The Quiet Place" with similarities being that of the sensory, don't make a sound; don't look at anything.

Budgetary wise they are similar too, $17 million and $19.8 million for "Bird Box". I think the main difference would be in the casting, score, director, etc. Some familiar names were in the cast other than lead, Sandra Bullock. John Malkovich, Sarah Paulson, etc.

Comparsions aside, I enjoyed the simple storytelling in contrast with the ambiguious nature of the narrative. Not mind blowing, but watchable nevertheless.
