Justin Lowe The Hollywood Reporter A vaguely conceived suspenser that's unlikely to find much support among horror audiences with justifiably higher expectations. Oct 3, 2017 Full Review John Anderson Wall Street Journal The effectiveness of The Sound really comes from its atmospherics, which are rich and disturbing Sep 29, 2017 Full Review Noel Murray Los Angeles Times Mostly, "The Sound" gets by on pure sensation. Mattison finds a lot to look at in the shadows - and in the heavy hum of the subway's deep holes, she finds a lot to hear. Sep 28, 2017 Full Review Todd Jorgenson Cinemalogue Some intriguing concepts become lost amid all the supernatural nonsense. Sep 29, 2017 Full Review Mark Dujsik Mark Reviews Movies The Sound ... tries for too much with too little. Rated: 1.5/4 Sep 29, 2017 Full Review Maitland McDonagh Film Journal International A debunker sets out to disprove an urban legend, but things don't go as planned in this tedious horror movie.

MARLA H Absolutley awful movie. The plot was somewhat ok but the acting was really, really bad. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 12/30/23 Full Review KerryWhite's S Rating: 5/10. 51/100 Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 09/29/23 Full Review Audience Member Kinda boring, predictable and cheesy but not the worst horror movie I've ever seen Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review Audience Member The sound has an interesting premise but the execution is terrible. The problem is the movie doesn’t really go anywhere or do anything. It’s Rose McGowan spending the majority of the movie and subway tunnels trying to find ghosts and that’s it. Christopher Lloyd is in the film it’s more of a cameo than anything. The acting here isn’t very good and it does have a creepy atmosphere but doesn’t do anything with it. A massive disappointment. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 08/14/20 Full Review Audience Member Really boring movie Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review farah r What a waste of time! Low quality film with terrible plot and acting. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Read all reviews
