    Liberals get to embrace their lower instincts, too. It's just off-putting when they speak like a Trump rally.

    A Quiet Place: Day One

    ★★★½

    The animal rangler for a cat made top dollar, and in a rare cameo, there's an INFJ sidekick oddly symbolic of colonialism in contrast to a doomed African American heroine. It is a high-production value, family-friendly thriller that we enjoyed that expressed the horrific reality of two introverts going out into a Trumpist landscape just for weekend pizza, an ironic luxery of postmodern times.

    Life on the outside has gotten tougher, while life on the inside has gotten easier.

    The film had masterful, minimalist suspense. Around each corner was another hillbilly tragedy, but the people were treated with respect to show the humanity of rural America. At times, it felt like walking on eggshells around reality, like a story told by a child who thinks the best of people (maybe except the mother) but acknowledges the cruelty of the world upon the heart.
