MOVIE REVIEW - Those Who Wish Me Dead

Warner Bros. Pictures' latest suspense action movie, Those Who Wish Me Dead, sets out Angelina Jolie's motherly character and also teaches us some ways of survival in dangers caused by mankind.

Connor (Finn Little) and Hannah (Angelina Jolie) 

As a forest survival expert, Hannah (Jolie) still copes up from the loss of friends from a forest fire tragedy happened a year ago, then a teenage boy Connor (Finn Little) gets himself lost in the woods to find a person who can trust to solve the murder of his father by assassins Jack (Aidan Gillen) and Patrick (Nicholas Hoult). Hannah and Connor needs to deliver a message to expose a big time syndicate which the latter's father has discovered. Protecting Connor became Hannah's primary mission along with escaping from the murderers themselves, but also from a Montana forest fire threatening to consume them all.


Jack (Aiden Gillen) and Patrick (Nicholas Hoult)

Those Who Wish Me Dead did not subtly laid out lots of tricks on how to survive. It really thought us how to escape death - from the air, on land or even underwater. Angelina's character Hannah is tough and affectionate on her connection with Connor and it somewhat released her from desperation from the past tragic incident. You'll really hate Jack and Patrick but I think they're being too exposed to be the assassin.

It is now streaming on HBO Max.

MOVIE REVIEW - A Quiet Place Part II

In A Quiet Place Part 2, we are following the story of the surviving Abbott family (Emily Blunt, Millicent Simmonds, Noah Jupe) from the creatures that threaten the human race with just a pitch of a sound. We are given a backstory of how the alien creatures arrive on earth through a asteroid that hit the planet.

Aside from these creatures, the Abbott family not only fights for survival against the creatures but other unknown elements on their path - and that includes humans. Meeting Emmett (Cillian Murphy) who hides in a bodega has been their refuge as they fight for bigger battles ahead.

Weaving it perfectly with the first movie, we will also get to see Lee (John Krasinski) at the beginning of the movie, the only time when it was still happy before the creatures arrived. We also get to see a closer anatomy of the aliens but what got me thinking was why don't they eat humans but they pierce them with their sharp pointy limbs.

It also great to see that the children grew braver and stronger with what they have to endure as they struggle to survive. References from the old movie like the sound of water was a good escape from the creatures and especially the high pitch vibration which was utilized well to fight them. I still had the surprised look and kept quiet but the jump scares and suspense breaks the silence with A Quiet Place Part 2. There's also an important element that the producers made in a very sensible way -- since the movie involves children, they were not seen firing them for the benefit of the audience.

A Quiet Place Part 2 is now playing in theaters, directed by John Krasinski under Paramount Pictures.
