Conductor

In hindsight I reckon this could make an interesting double bill with Titane. Having said that, Titane is way better than this film. Though that does not mean that this movie is a bad one at all. It is just inferior in certain aspects. Not in casting the main role imho.

It's funny because I just saw her over the last few weeks in a tv show called for the people. Well in her characters mind she is doing what she is doing ... also for the people. Keeping them all in her memory ... or rather in her sound. I reckon what she goes through and what she can "hear" is not scientifically proven or right in any way shape or form - no pun intended.

There is a lot of violence here (Sound of Violence seems more fitting than Conductor, but you may feel different I reckon) and a lot of blood is being spilled. And there is the visual aspect of it all. Because it isn't just "sound", but also a visual treat - at least for the viewer.

Interesting main idea, unfortunately not as gripping or enticing as it could be. A very strange yet quite expected ending caps it all off.

Imagine if you will a group of app designers creating a horror film, the end result wouldnt be unlike 'sound of violence', it must be said that the folk responsible for this movie are 'NOT' app designers, but they might as well be because their movie is as slick,.functional.and empty.as an app.

The idea of sound as a catalyst for evil isn't anything new, but at least recent offerings like 'berberian sound studio' and 'a.quiet place' used noise (or.a lack thereof in 'a qp's' case) to perfectly build tension and unease. ' sound of violence' despite its self descriptive title uses sound as an afterthought and the subtle use of it in the aforementioned movies is absent here as the movie just relies on heavy handed visual.shocks that you are more accustomed to seeing in the torture porn or slasher subgenres of horror movies, not the the art house horror this alludes to being. I Too arty and contrived for gorehounds and not challenging or idiosyncratic enough for your chin.stroking film buff, this movie is all froth and no coffee.

Giving this a 4 is being generous. All I can say is the premise of this film sounded interesting but the execution (pun intended) was completely ridiculous. I don't mind elaborate kills but these were preposterous. To top it all off the ending makes you just want to slap yourself for engaging in this nonsense to begin with. You have been warned.

I feel sorry to Jasmin Savoy Brown for wasting her talent on this film which clearly suffers from some identity crisis. It's rather laughable when Sound of Violence thought itself highly without realizing how silly and dull it was.

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.
