Honestly, I have zero idea what some viewers saw. Bird Box is literally The Happening with blindfolds . It's every Post-Apocalyptic cliche ever conceived crammed into a needlessly long run time. This movie is a medium budget Sci-fi Asylum film with an A-list actress. There is nothing else I can say besides the fact that if you've ever seen or read or played a post-apocalyptic--anything... then you've already seen this movie.
