Critics Consensus

Sound of Freedom is an effective and suspenseful call to action against human trafficking, yet not free of issues in its depiction of the sensitive subject matter.

Sound of Freedom is a powerful film with strong performances and an important message.

Tara Brady

Irish Times

It’s refreshingly unaffected. The storytelling is routine. It warrants neither its hard-core disciples nor its worst enemies. Ignore the dishonest huffing and puffing.

Rated: 3/5

Wendy Ide

Observer (UK)

A thunderously crass and manipulative movie that is hampered by erratic pacing, pantomime bad guys and an overfondness for shots of Caviezel weeping God-fearing, manly tears.

Rated: 2/5

Kevin EG Perry

Empire Magazine

Jim Caviezel is a one-man scourge of child predators in this well-meaning thriller that doesn’t entirely deserve to be written off as culture-war propaganda.

Rated: 3/5

There are no surprises and Monteverde’s script is stuffed with platitudes.

Loud and Clear Reviews

It’s directed remarkably and delicately, it’s acted powerfully, and it tells a story that’s simple but very easy to get invested in. But when you hold it up to factual scrutiny, the waters become grayer.

Rated: 3.5/5

Romey Norton

Film Focus Online

Overall, Sound of Freedom is politically charged - it’s trying to shed light on a very real world-wide issue but due to lack of character development, bad acting and long run time it might fail to entertain and engage you as a viewer.

Rated: 2.5/5

Very interesting movie. Made my husband and I rethink how freely we are with our children … makes us want to keep them connected at the hip.
