Bird box is worth a watch but is nothing to rave about. This movie is nothing new and at times quite predictable, you can see it's heavily influenced by the happening and a quiet place. Sandra Bullock carries this movie by giving an excellent performance with the material she was given. I think John Malkovich was kind of wasted in this movie, as he's an amazing actor but he's limited in what he had to work with. This movie is advertised as a horror but there weren't any scary or jumpy scenes, it's more of a post apocalyptic thriller.

This movie would have been better off made into a tv series, as they could have developed characters/story a lot better and not skip into the future missing plot points. This movie had the weirdest plot with regards to disability, it was as if the people who have some form of mental illness could walk around outside with their eyes open killing people, wheel spinning around in cars and doing evil acts. Why???? Just because they're mental?????? It's never explained.

There's many plot holes in this movie like how Sandra bullocks love interest Tom is built like Arnold Schwarzenegger, with I'm guessing no access to gym equipment and living on limited food for 5 years. And also what are the chances the two women would give birth at exactly the same time?????

Bird box is worth a watch but nothing to get excited about. If you want to watch an amazing post apocalyptic thriller which is suspenseful, with great acting and story telling, then I'd recommend 'a quiet place'.
