...and the baby is beautiful. This was a fun movie. The reason I am mentioning those two films is because of the similarities between them. In this movie, the creature (or whatever it is) makes people kill themselves, like in The Happening. Instead of being quiet, though, (like in A Quiet Place) you must be blind. While there are similarities, I don't think it is trying to completely copy the films. It's just using similar ideas. Sandra Bullock is amazing in this movie. The whole cast is great, including the kids. You care about all of the characters (for the most part) and are left on the edge of your seat wondering who is going to die next. The storytelling is phenomenal and makes it easy to keep track on when the plot jumps back in time and back to present day. Whatever the creatures look like we don't really know (if they even have a physical body), and that can kind of be a let down for a big monster fan like I am. The ending also felt a little underwhelming to me, with it not really giving an explanation for the creatures or anything. But that's okay. Not all movies have to answer all the questions. That's what makes it fun. Overall, I think Bird Box is a great addition to the horror genre, and is very entertaining. Netflix, for the most part, does a very good job with it's original movies. I highly recommend this film.
