8 / 10
"A Quiet Place: Day One" appropriately kept me in a frozen state, afraid to so much as crinkle a page in my notebook. It’s not a popcorn flick, though: Popcorn is too noisy.

It's a compelling and moving watch – and as always, you might want to choose your moments to grab the popcorn...

7.4 / 10
Underwhelming prequel "A Quiet Place: Day One" speaks softly
- Barry Hertz -
6.7 / 10
A bit uneven, sure, but it allows "A Quiet Place: Day One" to bask in the immense talents of its star, doing what it can to cull real pathos and comfort from very relatable anxiety.
- Conor O'Donnell -
6 / 10
As an emotional journey "A Quiet Place: Day One" has its moments. For a supposedly scary movie, it's a little bit sloppy.

"A Quiet Place: Day One" ought to have been the mind-blowing origin story, and instead it’s a Hallmark movie, where everyone seems to have nine lives — not just that darn cat.
- Peter Debruge -
3.8 / 10
Nyong’o’s prodigious talents are sadly wasted in this noisy, pointless movie, which never approaches the cleverness — or the genuine scariness — of the first two in the franchise.
- Moira Macdonald -
2.5 / 10
"A Quiet Place: Day One" is about a cancer patient in hospice who hopes to die with dignity. Also, there are terrible monsters threatening humanity. What an odd idea for a horror prequel.

8 / 10
Translated from swedish: "A Quiet Place: Day One" is a bit spooky here and there, even though the jumpscares at the end are few. At the same time, it is, like its predecessors, incredibly thrilling from start to finish, and will scare its audience to total silence.

8 / 10
Translated from swedish: "A Quiet Place: Day One" is truly a worthy start to the frightening film series, and now we look forward to a third part in the main series.

Translated from swedish: People need more silence. It is interesting to ponder why these giant realizations kill everything that is heard. The environment, nature, and the climate do have the ability to strike back when they are destroyed. Now the filmmaker has probably mostly made the film to be entertaining horror and suspense, but I can't help but ponder the so rare silence and our need for it.

Translated from swedish: "A Quiet Place: Day One" lacks the silence of the first film

Translated from swedish: The silence is more frightening than the keen-eared monsters

6 / 10
Translated from swedish: It won't particularly frighten horror enthusiasts, but it may also appeal to the slightly hairier horror film viewer. The film shines with an impressive production and storytelling that is often both courageous and smart from a craft perspective.

6 / 10
Translated from swedish: Not as nail-biting as its predecessors, but still a noteworthy horror prologue.
- André LamartineSwedish: gamereactor.se »

6 / 10
Translated from swedish: I really think you should make such a prequel film during the first day, but these answers should still be answered to give the viewer more substance if we are now going to continue this film series, which we will most likely do.
- Linus AndersenSwedish: cinetaste.se »

5 / 10
Translated from swedish: "A Quiet Place: Day One" will let us witness the day when the aliens came to Earth, but we absolutely learn no more than we did from the first two movies; and also, apparently you can let significantly more than previous films, without calling monsters to yourself. Convenient for the filmmaker, perhaps, but boring for us who watch the movie.

4 / 10
Translated from swedish: "A Quiet Place: Day One" sentimental horror with heartbreaking personal chemistry

Translated from swedish: A simple shock machine that tries to be refined.

"A Quiet Place: Day One" shows that the horror franchise can thrive without its core characters and can go even further in terms of how impactful its stories can be.
