Logan D @Greynomad38 17h A group of insurgent percussionists are committing sound crimes and a tone deaf policeman is assigned to track them down. A brilliant hidden gem! A rhythmic subversion of musicals and procedural dramas enhanced by the superb deadpan with the Swedes are noted for having. The police procedural is conventional but that's not the heart of the tale. Instead, it's a playful stylized film that I found a very inventive dark comedy.

See more kyle c @kylekc 09/09/2022 Sound of Noise is a funny but timid film that is clearly heavily influenced by its production team's love of music. It has some really cool set pieces that are used to make music in extremely unique ways, which is hands-down the best part of the film. The story to tie all of these set pieces together is a little weak, but overall it's hard not to be entertained. A little forced romance aside, this is a fun and weird movie made by musicians, for musicians. See more 12/06/2017 This movie is an amazing critique of social standards and institution hierarchies that is so visible to any sort of non popular musician - and yet in the same movie critiques the value of music at all, and validates the dislike of music. Anarchist values, norm critiquing, and incredible musical insight are what make this movie incredible. As a musician at a school similar to that where the protagonist drummers attended, I understand that the same criticism every music major feels when they attend school is that their major is lesser because it's not often as well a money maker as other, more hailed, professions are, and it's therefore seen as needing some sort of justification as to why you would ever choose to do that - be a music major or go to a music school. It's those same pressures that music students face that they also subject all music to with a hierarchy of musical validity, namely that classical music is the utmost degree of music, and therefore is the only valid thing. In the movie the classical bourgeois institution is taken on by the anarchist drummers that understand there should be no hierarchy, and these drummers that so value music as their entire lives, are more able to empathize with the cop that has an extreme distaste for any music, than his own bourgeois, classical loving family. Unbelievable story, execution, and dynamic. Bravo! See more 02/09/2015 Weird and wonderful. See more Read all reviews
