“#Can the sequel live up?<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\n
\n
\n
\n Running time: 97 minutes. Rated PG-13 (terror, violence and bloody\/disturbing images.) In theaters.\n <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Spoiler alert: It\u2019s still very quiet.<\/p>\n

\u201cA Quiet Place Part II,\u201d the sequel to 2018\u2019s surprise horror hit, is a direct continuation of the first film, with mom Evelyn (Emily Blunt) and her three kids tip-toeing away from their upstate New York farm in search of safety after their finale clash. (It\u2019s opening Friday in theaters only, but is expected to stream on Paramount+<\/a> sometime in July.)<\/p>\n

The hugely enjoyable second entry doesn\u2019t lift the franchise to new artistic heights, a la \u201cThe Empire Strikes Back,\u201d but \u201cPart II\u201d is every bit as good and scary as its predecessor, and the characters, especially the kids, go to deeper and braver places.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s a quick refresh. For more than a year, Earth has been overrun by animalistic aliens who are hypersensitive to sound. Sounds like me before 10 a.m.! Make any noise above a whisper and you\u2019ll be a giant spider\u2019s brunch in seconds. Survivors have developed strategies to stay alive, but there\u2019s no hope on the horizon for a happ<\/a>y future. <\/p>\n

If the first film was purely a story of survival, the sequel is all about discovery.<\/p>\n

Writer-director John Krasinski likes his movies<\/a> brisk, so we only visit a couple new settings this time \u2014 but important ones. The stop that\u2019s OK to reveal is another man\u2019s nearby barn. His name is Emmett (Cillian Murphy), and he\u2019s a moody fellow who didn\u2019t like Evelyn\u2019s husband Lee (Krasinski) very much and doesn\u2019t want to give them shelter. He changes his tune when he sees her newborn baby.<\/p>\n

What Krasinski \u2014 who first mastered the whisper as Jim on \u201cThe Office\u201d \u2014 is so skilled at is taking a few visceral elements and stirring up our fears with them. For instance, in this deadly hellscape, it\u2019s hard not to constantly worry about a baby.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Another brilliant idea was putting a furnace in the cellar of Emmett\u2019s barn where people can hide from the creatures for about 15 minutes before running out of air. If you\u2019re not careful, you\u2019ll be locked in. It\u2019s bigger than some New York apartments, and as frightening as some New York apartments.<\/p>\n

Blunt, of course, is a force in these movies, especially in moments when her maternal need to protect her kids turns her into a gun-toting superhero. However, it\u2019s the young cast who really excels here. Regan (Millicent Simmonds) takes charge now and heads out in search of other people, finding peril and treachery at every turn. Meanwhile, Marcus (Noah Jupe, a big talent) stays back at the barn and protects the little one from what\u2019s lurking outside.<\/p>\n

In the heart-stopping end sequence, three separate experiences of Evelyn, Regan and Marcus are edited together to create 10 minutes of nonstop stress. <\/p>\n

A third \u201cQuiet Place\u201d is already in the works, making this sci-fi horror series a trilogy. If that film ends with the destruction of our alien foes, I hope Krasinski can balance such a big move with the intimacy and intelligence that have made his jewel of a series such a standout.\n <\/p><\/div>\n
