Apart from a flashback Krasinski isn't in this one. Good cross-cutting of action between Emily Blunt's efforts to save son Noah Jupe and baby, and Millie Simmonds and Cillian Murphy's journey to reach survivors on an island. Millie steals the film for us. She was BAFTA nominated and came to attention with a fantastic performance in Todd Haynes' Wonderstruck.
Good music from Marco Beltrami. Photographed by Brit Polly Morgan (Where the Crawdads Sing), edited by Michael Shawver, production designer Jess Gonchor, sound design by Erik Aadahl and Ethan van der Ryn.
I guess it's not quite as creative as the first one, but then we have lost the element of surprise.
