A Quiet Kitty: The Search for Fentanyl and Pizza is the greatest and most accurate 3 second summary I’ve ever heard!
🙌🏾
@@fishjellyfilmreviews why u guys haven't made a five nights at Freddy's review yet can u guys please make one
Someone described Mad Max; Fury Road as; "Drove there. Drove back. But I liked it." Someone else called it "a very violent road trip."
Too funny!!
About the “quiet kitty”, Sam’s cat is a service animal. One of the most emphasized qualities that service animals are trained to have is the ability to remain calm and quiet in chaotic loud situations and environments. Also service animals are trained to sense when someone is having anxiousness, so it explains why the cat is drawn to Eric.
Wow. Well thank you for that explanation. I could never imagine a cat to be trained to be quiet and calm. So thats so interesting. My Winston is such a chatterbox he would get me killed first and anyone who dares gets near him;well he would meow them back into reality and have them killed as well lol.
@@aidaflores6024 yeah it’s one of the first things a service dog or cat is tested for in order for the animal to be trained extensively, because they have to be calm and not reactive when their owners have anxiety attacks or get put under pressure.
Cats are used predominately as emotional support animals not service animals.
i thought she was just being sarcastic when she said that
If that’s true then why did the cat run every time things got shifty lolol
Our own cat would have us killed in two seconds. 😂
Yeah this cat had at least 18 lives and I saw it was played by 2 cats!
My two kitties would have gotten us killed immediately.
I like when they said people were coughing in the theater so they would have been dead. Made me think how cool it would be if we could capture these alien creatures and put them in movie theaters so if anyone takes out their phone or starts talking during the movie it's instant death for them. I'm sure no one would be bothered by it.
My favourite line too!🤣🤣
Happy Pride guys!
🍁from Canada #fishjellyfilmreviews
Eric had 9 lives like the cat because he was making noise every other minute 😄
I like how Lupita controlled her destiny at the end instead of letting the disease take her life.
Bleak on Bleak Crime...😂😂😂
Wait a minute...the cat doesn't make a sound? When I saw the trailer, I thought for sure they were going to dose the kitty with Benadryl for the whole movie!! That's crazy!
I always love hearing your cat in the background of your videos! She definitely would get you guys killed!
I would’ve tripped or something. My allergies would’ve gotten me sliced up. Come to think of it, there’s all this dust and no one sneezed 🤔🤔🤔
The movie was pointless in The Quiet Place franchise.
“search for fentanyl and pizza” 😂 omg
Lupita is one of the most beautiful women I've ever seen. Talented and seemingly pro cats as well. 😊
This movie and working with cats made her like cats and adopt one (she said in a interview)
@Kad6976x that's adorable.
Lupita has a Harvard degree (in real life), as well.
I can't with y'alls alternate titles 😂
You two are SPOT ON about EVERYTHING!! Fantastic take, well done, great job 🎉🎉🎉
“Bleak on bleak crime.” 😂😂😂
I'm a huge cat person, but the cat totally broke my immersion in this film. Every situation I couldn't help but think no way the cat doesn't hiss or scramble from the water.
It’s a service cat though. And one of the things that make service animals unique is that they are trained to remain calm and quiet in chaotic situations and environments.
@@alfredmeneses5496 I don't think they train service animals to swim in subways and remain calm during horse Sized alien dday.
Was it really a service cat? I thought she was just saying that to bs the guy at the store. I didn't even know service cats were a thing. I've seen lots of service dogs.
Okay so I just looked it up. While cats can be therapeutic animals, they are not legally recognized as service animals. At least according to Google.
@@alfredmeneses5496that’s BullShit if a cat sees a alien they will hiss
He latched on to her cause she's a civilized person. I'm sure people would try to stick together under these circumstances.
I saw it with a bunch of friends and we all loved it! Great addition to the series.
Great review guys, as usual, one small note, Djimon is pronounced like Simon, so jaimon or something. I heard him once explain that, that's why I know. Thank you again for your review.
Why does Aggie/Aggy look like ET with that blanket on? 😆 She sure would have a lot to say if she was in the film.
Me and the whole audience felt like we had to be quiet😅
Loool I said the same thing. I stupidly got popcorn and was calculating the right times to eat it during the movie 😂😂
@@destined2bebossy me toooo lmfao
Yes! And I went to a cinema cafe and was eating chicken wings and fries. Every bite I made felt like torture. 😂
I've been waiting on this review!!! And for the record I love cats and pizza and Lupita is damn near perfect in everything so it's a must see regardless 😜
Love this review! Totally share the same sentiments. The movie posters for this said "See where it all began" but then the actual film just shows the same lore, nothing new. It's a good thing Lupita delivers a great emotional performance because other than that, it was not good.
I anxiously waited until after I saw the movie to watch yall review ❤
I said the same thing, i whispered to my friend "yeh my cat would get me killed 😂" sorry but the cat would have been left on the curb.
Totally agree, this movie did nothing to build onto the franchise. My friend said the scene where the guy is trying to get to the cat, there's a pod that the aliens eat. I thought it was a person or an animal but she said it was some type of hairy egg. I'm curious if anyone else caught this. She made a point that they don't really eat the people, just kill them so maybe their food source landed on earth, idk.
The scene where he reads her poem about dying made me tear up. I also like the scene where people are trying to escape because typically in a movie there'd be chaos but it was eerie to have all these people trying to escape quietly. My dumba*s got popcorn so the whole movie I was trying to find the right moments to eat 😂😂 Overall it was predictable. Lupita did the d*MN thing with her acting 👏🏿
Our cat would have got us killed in two seconds 😂
Hmmmm, this seems very contemplative for a thriller alien story, but I do love Lupita's acting always
Idk. I like the idea of AQP as an anthology series where they explore the events from the perspective of different groups 8n different locations, as apposed to several films following the single family. I think I liked this more than the first two, at least.
Pause: a quiet kitty? Me and my cat have very intricate conversations daily and the world don't even be ending. The quiet cat sounds like the most supernatural part of this ALIEN movie. PS why did y'all do Aggie that way by putting up that picture of her looking like a cold, angry grandma😂
I left the theater all red and puffy because I was crying so much. The part where she’s holding her dads picture 😭😭😭 and I never recovered after that
The waterworks started for me, when Eric went out and got pizza. It just went downhill from there and then the combination of her note to him and the picture of her and her dad, destroyed me.
Me too! Wasn’t expecting to be emotional. Reading the comments just reminds me of how our view of a movie is coloured by our different experiences and sensibilities. Also another reason to check movies out for yourself and take a risk from time to time
Yessss that got me!!
This movie had no emotional aspect to it, compared to the 1st 2.. was not invested in any of the characters.
That scene had me crying too
My favourite reviewers !
Thank you thank you thank you. You are the only reviewer that correctly stated the obvious. Who is this man???
That was the quietest cat I've ever seen. I was waiting for the cat to meow just once, and get snatched up by the creatures!!😅😅😅
Patsy’s is a real restaurant in East Harlem. I’ve had their pizza, definitely not dodging aliens level of greatness lol. It’s iight though.
Love that Lupita is a scream queen now. She really made this movie but I do think “okay” is the perfect way to describe this movie. I thought I’d have more to take from it.
Cats are my favorite animal. I have had them as pets for my entire life. Nick and Joseph I always enjoy when your cat makes an appearance in your videos. Especially when she is heard and not seen.
That darn cat! 😂😂😂
Love that film! 😂
It sounds like this film is pulling a "Signs." Why would aliens afraid of water visit a planet that is seventy-five percent water? Say what?!
Right!
Ok so i saw this in August last year at a test screening and loved it. i believe they said the cut we saw was like 108 minutes so obviously its been trimmed. I might have blanked out during the review but was there a gay couple in the film that Lupita and Joseph stayed the night with in this film or were they cut. because the scene with them was so damn beautiful and I hear no one mentioning it online.
I watched it yesterday, the couple was cut cause I don't remember them
@@destined2bebossy I saw it again yeah they cut out like 10 minutes of hospital scenes in the begining, and the couple scene. They later show the couple trapped in those memories monster eggs that they are feeding off of but the couple was smiling and hugging because they were together when they died, even though one of them was afraid for there life and the other was ok with the idea of dying in this time. It was setup so well I guess they really just wanted way less drama so they took out like 15 minutes of the version I saw. It's mucu faster pace but I felt the drama and stakes were almost weaker because of it.
@@AceZachrocks123 darn, that sounds so good. Maybe we'll get an extended cut somewhere
@@destined2bebossy I really hope so.
Nick is so Animated 😂😂😂😂. I love it!
awww! your cat is a cutie!! fyi, i believe Jasmine Guy bought the rights to do the movies on majority of Octavia Butlers books. However, she's having too many financial personal issues of her own.
I love this UA-cam channel and have been watching for a few months now. I can always get the most cynical take from these two and always ground my expectations. I may not agree with them most of the time, but their opinions is always part of my wheelhouse.
The issue I had with this film is that it felt more like a part three instead of what a "day one" would have looked like. I expected not only to learn about these aliens, but go through
a sequence of humankind coming into contact with them. This just didn't do it for me.
I don’t know how Frodo didn’t drown a few times. I enjoyed the movie
🛌🔧
I'm late to the post BUT anyways so I really had high hopes for this film bc the other 2 were really great films n writing. It seemed to be just very fast moving film. I thought it would be more story telling on how this all happens. It annoyed me within hours they knew the weakness of the aliens etc..
They should have said everyone come in small groups OR had military come and try to evacuate what they can. Military seemed like chickens ...I saw no military anywhere to help evacuate.
I didn't like that we focused on the usual NYC. In the 2nd film the shots and dialog was amazing n seeing how the town reacted to this all of a sudden alien attack. That was shot much better. The cat was just too much for me and the pizza conversation I was over it after an hour. I kinda wished the 2 kids stayed as like a foreshadowing of the kids in the previous movie. I didn't quite like the female character like yes ur dying but u don't need to not care about anyone else. Accept ur damn pizza. Even as the world falling apart ... she still cared about herself.
I was so worried that you weren’t reviewing AQP Day One! Couldn’t imagine that though.
The 1st one was good. The 2nd one was OK. Now it's getting old.
@@skelly0000they are not boring and are awesome. Why the hate
I love a quiet place conceptually, so honestly I was loving this fanfiction-esque take on the universe :)) doesn’t add to the universe, but I enjoy the story it tells.
I wish they advertised this film as more of a Quiet Place Universe story instead of an Origins/Day One prequel vibe
It was atmospheric and tense but I'm not sure how it enhances the franchise at all. Kind of inconsequential...loved Lupita and Joseph's performances though. Very effective!
How she running around straight outta hospice?
She be on that fentanyl
Bleak on bleak crime 🤣 yall are the best
I genuinely enjoyed this movie so much that I went to see it twice with different friends. I completely believe that a terminal person with nothing to lose would basically say Eff it, Imma die anyway, so I’m gonna go get my favorite pizza for my last meal. In such dire circumstances where there is little hope for survival, I believed her. I even believed that two people in such circumstances could build such a fast and strong bond. The one criticism I have is that a couple of their scenes dragged on too long (the scene in her Harlem apartment and the scene at the lounge with the piano). The one “I wish” thought is, I wish we’d seen more of the military’s response to the aliens and more of the people’s process of figuring out they needed to be silent/ the aliens couldn’t swim. They seemed to figure that out SO fast and I just don’t think that’s realistic.
This is a prequel. Usually in prequels you get more of an insight on the origins. There waa no real explanation on where the creatures are from, how did they get there exactly. We saw what seemed to be meteors in the sky, and I suppose that's how they got on earth, but that still leaves a loop hole! Lupita was cool!!
I said the same thing
"Bleak on Bleak crime" took me out L O L
I watch a lot of movie review channels and this is the first time you guys showed up in my search. Your channel description of "Gay Homosexual" was hilarious to me. Well, as a "straight heterosexual" man you have a new follower. I agreed with everything you two said.
I loved the first two movies and was beyond excited for this prequel. Plus the trailers made it seem action packed. However, as you both stated, literally all of the action was in the trailers. lol
This movie was a snore fest and the trailers were beyond misleading. The only redeeming grace was Lupita.
I was blown away by Eric. The second he popped out of the water I thought Robert Downey Junior so of course I did a little digging and I had no idea who he was but I know now and he’s going to be in fantastic for he definitely has a young RDJ going. I’m excited to see his future work!!
Why is it that aliens are always afraid of water?
You are right but in this particular franchise they just can’t swim. One tries to and it drowns lol.
Everyone criticizes the cat situation and it definitely makes sense.....however sometimes it's just fun in a "scary" movie to have a cool pet. Not everything has to be perfect...but I get it and if that takes folks out of their immersion then that's not good. I for one was able to stay immersed and loved the cat. In general loved the psychology of the characters and that they actually made me care. I have seen most of the new horror films this year and they have been mostly terrible with terrible character work. This was Oscar worthy in comparison lol.
Dawn was so good! I hope we get that series! Thanks for another great review❤❤❤
I was looking for yall movie review ❤
Thanks for always being honest with your reviews!! I think these movies need to bump up to rated R so we can actually have some real horror. PG-13 horror just never works for me because it feels limited.
CAN SOMEONE HELP ME I HAD TO GO TO THE BATHRROOM 😭😭😭 What happened when everyone (the crowd) was walking to the boats? I came back with the guy coming from under water and breathing heavy
Basically the giant crowd of people started making a bunch of low noise (including a guy with a broken-wheeled suitcase) which triggered an attack. Lupita ran around hiding from them under a car, the cat disappeared in the chaos, and lupita almost got squished by the car but managed to make it out in one piece. She stumbles her way over to an alleyway where she hides. That’s when Nick emerges from the flooded subway and finds the cat.
Hope this helps!
@@thatbasicthespian861 thank you sooo much!!
@@Aa__aa374 of course :)
Ok. I love the Janet t shirt! Did you catch her on tour this time around? She was amazing as she always is🙌🏿
I couldn't get that mass of people migrating either. I would not be in that mass.
My mom noted the same thing about the tie …it never comes off lmaoo
I didn’t care for this movie at all. I give Lupi a lot of credit. Her body language and facial expressions, were out of this world….very well done.
they told us absolutely nothing new about the origins of the aliens😒..apart from a few tense moments & a few tear jerkers ,totally boring..
I was also wondering why she didn’t scream when he was running in the port… like you want to die and you want him to escape so….. just scream
I thought she was going to but I think they didn't want to redo the scene with the dad from the first movie
@@destined2bebossy yeah that clicked too but idk she could have sang lmao she was just like make it come on! While he was being chased lmao
I wasn’t expecting that much but give it an 8 after seeing it on an iMAX screen. Lupita is excellent as always
But in part 1, the alien dove under water when the basement was flooding, quite expertly, which threw me off in part 2 when they were afraid of water. Am I buggin? Did anyone else see that in part 1?
The movie would have been a lot smoother if Alex Wolff stayed alive and filled the role and character arc that Joseph Quinn played because I was not feeling the chemistry between him and Lupita at all.
Hello again handsome gentlemen! Will you be reviewing The Devil's Bath?
It’s on our list.
@@fishjellyfilmreviews thank you
@@fishjellyfilmreviewsLet me go through your list
I hadn't seen the other quiet places so I assumed Eric was a character that was in the later films and that's why we didn't get much backstory on him because it's covered in the movies. But I guess not. I didn't get what was motivating Eric to want to follow her around and help her. Was it a romantic attraction? Maybe I'm just too cynical and I expect some ulterior motive.
Very disappointing movie ..
Was hoping for World War Z kind of epic grandeur after seeing the trailer but it becomes a tear jerker with lots of cringy attempts at tear jerking ...
First disappointment, there are no new interesting revelations about the aliens despite the movie being a day one movie, instead it becomes a haunted house tour where the aliens are reduced to jump scare actors ..
Secondly, cheap jumpscares really cheapens the movie, usually such jumpscares are used to fill a very simplistic vacant story plot .. there are quite a few in the movie ..
Thirdly, there is absolutely no chemistry between the two leads except very out of nowhere cringe teary moments. They are suddenly buddies without any organic buildup at all ... the male lead especially feels cringy as he's looking at her all teary from the first meeting, like what the ... kind of too wimpy weird ... they should go with the first hospice guy as the male lead, as he has tons more charisma and chemistry with the female lead from the get go.
A lot of forced plot details that do not feel believable, like the cat somehow finding its way back to her by coincidence and she's not even that emotional when she sees her pet appear. The cat not meowing the whole time just to ensure it stays alive till the end. Her life story hardly moves me because her recollection of her past is done so poorly in such a vague way ..... She meets some kids and tells them to follow the crowd, like its supposed to be interesting ?
Its such a lifeless mish mash of zombie tropes ... really disappointing ...
my gents , love the shirts per usual need prince top , my man looks like colin from the boys great review gents chris from uk manchester keep it up ❤❤
They yada yada the hell out of how he made it back from that nest or Lair of monsters lol
I had to google to make sure the cat made it. I'm gonna go see this then watch the review. Was it good ??
I believe the cat being quiet more than a baby being quiet (unless they sedate him 24 hours )
Wow. I loved this movie...best of the three so far. So well done in every way, emotionally involving too
Hi Joseph & Nick!👽You guys nailed the review again and are so correct!❤Already saw the movie...What a big disappointment and not impressed as the trailers are very misleading and show all the action in the movie already. There are so many things that don't make any sense in the movie. Eric shinning the flashlight directly at the aliens numerous times and never turning off the flashlight....how do they even know the aliens are blind? Samira constantly going outside in the streets to hang out, relax and chill...what is she asking for an instant death? Samira and Eric both taking the cat underwater two different times, the first time for quit a long time, that cat would have been dead, but it never dies and never makes a sound through the entire movie. There is no way any animal would never make a sound. The movie did not take place on one day, because Samira and Eric are spending so much time together and sleeping at night. How many days passed by the time the movie ended? And there is still one boat left in the water and all the other boats are completely gone. Eric's character/personality is a mess. Eric's character did not need to be this way. And the cat was completely useless and not needed.🎥
Shout out to Garth Brooks! 😆
I enjoyed this movie. But I feel the exact same way. Plus, the implication that the military knows that sound distracts the aliens. So why not lure the monster with sound into a slaughter fest? Have that not work for some reason and then carry on. It just felt like a massive plot hole right from the beginning. And fucking cat. Unrealistic! Lol.
Support cats are magical I guess.
yeah i had a feeling it would be bad... i still say a quiet place should have just been ONE movie. first movie was epic. second was ok... third... 👀
Disappointed in the film
Such a let down, the first two movies were amazing, authentic, maybe redundant at times but they were great. This one is a HUGE let down!
Blessings para el Moreno and his soul mate, Latina de Corazon, Hugs from PR 💜💜💜
This movie was boring not gonna lie
ur tripping
real
Yes 😂😂😂 Mi Moreno always in my heart 💜💜💜
AMS’s Interview of the Vampire series review plzzzz!! Saw that S1, mind blowing s** scene!!
So she gets kills at end smh bc of the cancer but nit cancer the alien. But she let the alien take her out not cancer.
A Very Noisy & Boring Place would have been a more appropriate title
Aww your cat is so cute!
I just went to see it this morning and I was a bit disappointed. I was rooting for the cat. 🐈
I love your Janet Jackson shirt. I want it so bad n she is tour now.
#DisneyDiva ❤
Nice channel. P.S. I noticed you describe yourselves as "gay" homosexuals. Are there homosexuals that aren't gay?
Gay = happy
So no one is going to comment on Rhythm Nation and Bald Ripley tees 😅? Nice choices for visual references.
Addendum: I'm typing this with an Amazon tablet. So please excuse any typos.
Halloween Horror Night is going to make a maze for this movie.
snooze fest to me... this movie is just following the same premise as the prev 2 movies and doesn't add anything new... i feel that the movie would have been much better and interesting to see how ppl adapted to survive starting from day 1... i would imagined the movie would go like this:
initially when the aliens invaded nobody knew their weakness and are attracted to loud noises.. so naturally everyone would be screaming and running around making heck lot of noise... but because there are more people than aliens at that time so the aliens cannot kill everyone who make noise... instead they prioritized on killing the loudest ones... so i imagined ppl start to realize that the loudest ones get killed first they learned to keep quiet... and over time more and more gets killed until there are more aliens and humans and the remaining survivals know how critical it is to remain silent to survive...
I think the movie would have been better kf there wasnt a score. Just quiet and the sound of their environment. Its felt weird but it took me out of the movie more than the cat. 😅
Also more the score. If there was some music before the attack and then just the Nina Simone at the end it would have been perfect
Robert Downey Jr Jr.😅😅😅😅😅😅😅 He did favor him!!
i found this movie boring, predictable and too safe :/
Yeah, him not taking his tie off drove me crazy too.
I'm not really interested in a Quiet Place movie that doesn't feature the family from the first two :/ But still a great review!
Even knowing how less actiony this movie is i too will still go n watch for Lupita. I wonder if she takes some inspiration from her Black Panther friend who was suffering from cancer during filming. If no lupita i would wait for streaming.
