      Critics Consensus

      While there are some built-in scares, the movie is muddled and unsatisfying.

      Tariq N Absolutely phenomenal! Had all the factors of a thriller. Kept me on the edge of my seat, unlike the dark knight🤮🤢, and was roped into the character development of ALL the characters! Recommend all ages to watch… unless you're dying. A THRILLING THRILLER.🙏🙏 Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/12/23 Full Review Jessie R This movie will keep you on the edge of your seat! I really enjoyed it! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/11/23 Full Review Audience Member This movie was still good to watch after 17 years. Not sure why everyone gave it bad ratings. I enjoyed Rated 4 out of 5 stars 09/11/22 Full Review Audience Member White noise fails at making the audience care for the main character. White noise is just a collection of paranormal events that link somehow to EVP. The acting was bland and so was everything else. A very stereotypical ghost flick. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review ryan s 2/5. The movie looks good and Michael Keaton is solid, but the wiring isn't great and the 3rd act is very bad. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Stephen S Creepy and memorable. I love the way this film is directed and shot...so interesting!

      Namrata Joshi Outlook Koel Purie has a nice blithe presence. Unfortunately, White Noise does not prove to be an adequate stage for her. Rated: 1/4 Jan 8, 2019 Full Review Nell Minow Common Sense Media Dumb would-be thriller -- save your money. Rated: 2/5 Dec 29, 2010 Full Review Jonathan Rosenbaum Chicago Reader Though I'm well disposed toward elliptical spook stories that depend on the audience's imagination for their jolts and effects, it takes art as well as craft to put them across, and Geoffrey Sax's direction of a Niall Johnson script has neither. Feb 28, 2007 Full Review Matt Brunson Film Frenzy White Noise asks viewers to accept Electronic Voice Phenomenon (EVP) as cold, hard fact, and then proceeds to spin a fantasy yarn that flubs its own narrative constraints. Rated: 1.5/4 Jul 15, 2023 Full Review Brian Orndorf Blu-ray.com A lazy, muddled snooze that happily tenders pure fantasy to those with an endless curiosity about the hereafter. Rated: D Sep 21, 2020 Full Review Kathi Maio The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction Sadly, there are a hundred possible scenarios that might have made more sense than the gobbledygook plot White Noise ends up presenting...
