The biggest thing I wanna know about this movie before deciding whether to see it is;

How much of the movie is plot and character based and how much is literally action shots with the monsters? Anyone seen it that can weigh in?

Very little actual screen time with monsters. Like maybe 5-10 minutes tops if I recall. But their presence is always felt from the tension in the characters.

Definitely more of a character based story in the framework of a monster horror.

Edit: whoops disregard this thought it was the original a quiet place
