Noise

A sharp, darkly comic commentary on noise pollution. Tim Robbins' character isn't going to to listen to car alarms anymore, dammit, and he'll break the law to shut them up if he has to: it's the kind of concept you could see popping up on a David E. Kelley legal show for a subplot; it's a pleasant surprise to find an entire feature focused on such. Robbins is great, as are William Hurt and Bridget Moynahan in support roles. Deserves more attention.

noioso un po si.... but interesting theme

You know, Tim Robbins has a point. Good on him. Fuck this noise.

I love this movie's idea more than the movie itself. I've read it somewhere that it is loosely based on the director's own terrorist deeds. If so, he is my new hero now.

There hasn't been such manifest smugness on screen since The Squid and the Whale.

Noise is never quite as smart as it tries to be. But as summer and its mouth-breathing blockbusters loom large on the horizon, there's something touching about a movie that even tries.

A Tim-Robin's Dramedy about an average Joe that just can't take the nuisance noises anymore: particularly the car alarms.

i understand the function of filippovna subplot, but it drags on and becomes especially too caricature-like for the film's own good when she meets with the mayor. otherwise, while a little pretentious and self-important like the main character, this is a solid and rather ambitious drama taking on much broader subjects and is able to frame them cogently.
