3/5
Remains absolutely faithful to giallo tradition, in taking a crass and borderline ludicrous premise and pushing it to lurid ends. Go to Full Review Trace Sauveur Austin Chronicle 06/01/2021

The potential is here, but with Sound of Violence, the blood only runs so deep. Go to Full Review Randy Myers San Jose Mercury News 05/27/2021
2.5/4
Alex Noyer is out to shock the hell out of you and he does just that with this hardcore horror outing, which is as original as it is gory. Go to Full Review John Daniel Tangalin The Cinema Spot 07/19/2025
The filmmaker tells his story almost as if to say that music is literal life. It can speak to you, possess a heartbeat. Go to Full Review Joonatan Itkonen Region Free 07/04/2024
4/5
Even when it feels like it’s about to fly off the rails, Noyer’s smart direction and a tender performance from Brown ground it in place. There are the beginnings of a grand career at work here. Go to Full Review Soham Gadre Vague Visages 01/09/2024
Sound of Violence’s nonchalant depictions of violence, which occur with such obfuscation due to uncoordinated quick-cut editing and color filters, render it a fangless drama with un-engaging sequences of killing and torture. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Avindu G @RT86379654 01/20/2023 A brand new world of an ecstatic existence that feeds on veils of viewer's reality. Movie travles to the darkest corners of a broken mind helpless and dependent on sparks of stimuli. Though Jasmine's performance was adequate in portraying the killer ecstasy it lacked emotions of insanity or maybe the story was cut short too early. Alexa's character seemed hardly capable to equip advanced techniques too. Beside such flaws it's a great attempt to literally paint a picture of what make the Alexas tick. Therefore in that regard Sound of Violence is a special project that has achieved mapping a special mind. See more 09/26/2022 Criminally dumb & unintentionally humorous. To begin, I'm not sure what message was trying to be relayed to the viewer through a paper-thin story, but the film had all the trappings of bad B-movies with moronic character choices. Just with more recent technological advances. See more brad p @Bradster69 07/16/2022 ‘Sound of Violence' Has a Muddled Message About Trauma See more Rodney G @Rodknee 01/24/2022 Recommended. Was a good escape. See more 01/12/2022 Messy but so original. Unapologetic fun! See more 01/12/2022 Bonkers!!! Jasmin Savoy Brown is a star! can't wait to watch Scream! See more Read all reviews
