The movie 'Bird Box' is about how five years after an ominous unseen presence drives most of society to suicide, as a mother and her two children make a desperate bid to reach safety.

I recently watched the movie 'Bird Box' and I didn't really enjoy it. The concept was basically the same as movies such as 'Don't Breathe', 'Hush', and 'The Quiet Place'. In those ways, I didn't really like it because the concept of it has already been used. To explain, in the movies I've listed and 'Bird Box' the story goes how an entity wreaks havoc and a group of persons/family try to get away from it and survive while doing so. The characters basically can only use one of the five senses to survive. Like in the movie 'Hush', the main character is blind, so she can't use her sense of sight, but has to rely on her sense of hearing to escape the killer.

I personally didn't find the plot to be that interesting, though I can agree that one or two scenes I liked. I think the rate at which the characters were killed off was pretty fast, but I can't really complain about something that was written in the book that had to be done. I mainly just didn't like the fact that I've seen what seems like the same concept in other movies.

There definitely are many people who thought this movie was great, but I just don't think so.

The fact also that I saw a news report already that a 'Bird Box' related death occurred. I can't fathom why people would think that it's smart to put a blindfold on and do anything without getting hurt.

If people start getting ridiculous ideas from 'Bird Box' and put blindfolds on and drive or any other stupid ideas then there is going to be an issue in the media and more news reports will start washing in.

In my opinion, just save yourselves the trouble of watching this film and watch something that was pretty good like 'Mary Poppins Returns' or really anything else.
