John Krasinki's absence from this movie is a HUGE loss. Emily Blunt's diminished appearance time is also a huge loss. Those are the 2 characters we care about the most and their lack of relationship and lack of screen time is so sorely missed. I craved to connect with another character and longed to genuinely care about another, but found myself irritated with the screaming boy and independent girl, whom both just literally lost their father only a day or two prior.
Would absolutely LOVE to see a 3rd film focusing again on Krasinksi and Blunt, their relationship and their struggles as parents in a very COVID-like world. It would be very fun to see not only day 1 and days 89 and 400-something, but also night 1, and days 2-88, so that we can see their reaction to finding out they're having a baby in a quiet world, so that we can see how they prepare their home to be silent, so that we can see them call their parents and friends, and so that we can see them struggle to teach their children how to become quiet when children simply are not.
I just crave so much more than what the sequel provided and definitely was let down. The performances by all of the characters were beautiful and well above average, but I really missed a climax, like Blunt's bathtub scene in the original.
