[FILM REVIEW] BIRD BOX - The movie with no clear ideas

"A quiet place" by Krasinky was about unknown creatures that conquers the world and use sounds for hunting leading the main characters in adopting a consistently quiet and no-noise lifestyle to not being catched. (And this is a great movie anyway!)

"I am a legend" describe a distopic world where Will Smith is one of the only man left alive in the planet and tries to survive against infected creatures indeed ex-human beings.

Mash up these, add some old screenplay lines , add some exploding cars and a good cast, shake and stir a bit and you get out the new movie by Susanne Bier distributed by Netflix.

Ok this might sounds new to all of us, since no movie till now face a plot where people can't use their eyes because otherwise they get infected by something, but IMHO this is not properly addressed since we do not know what are these creatures, why they are here and why some of them are not effected.

My romantic soul has also tried to face the movie in a more philosophical way. Maybe, the key point of the movie is that for living we need to keep our eyes closed to bad things (and people) that may surrounds us otherwise bad things affect you and kill you slowly? Well, good game Netflix, but this is not completely true again. Eyes must be kept open, despite bad things happens around us. Bad things must be faced and if possible annihilated.

This is my two cents, where a marvellous Sandra Bullock still holds but the plot is not well deep engaged. Please take care Netflix, not all your viewers are here for a pure light and shallow entertainment.
