Sound of Noise Trailer Impressions: A Musical Wild-Goose Chase

Sound of Noise Trailer was a 2010 Swedish-French comedy-crime film written and directed by Ola Simonsson and Johannes Stjärne Nilsson which premiered on International Critic's Week of the 63rd Cannes Film Festival back in May 18, 2010. Sound of Noise, a film that tells the story of a group of musicians who illegally perform music on objects in the various institutions of a city will finally have a 2012 international film release. Let's check out what this film has to offer here.

Sound of Noise Trailer
Plot / Synopsis

The narrative revolves around police officer Amadeus Warnebring, tone-deaf scion of a distinguished musical family, and his attempts to track down a group of six guerilla percussionists whose anarchic public performances are terrorizing the city. The drumming set pieces correspond to an avant-garde score with four hilariously titled movements. Where the short involved the six drummers imaginatively using standard apartment furnishings as their instruments, the feature unleashes them on an unspecified city's civic and cultural institutions. Including an amusing backstory for each of the soberly dressed drummers as well as their nemesis, music-hating investigator Warnebring, the film creates a treat for the eyes and ears from the dull, repetitive sounds of everyday life.
Director: Ola Simonsson, Johannes Stjarne Nilsson
Cast: Bengt Nilsson, Sanna Persson Halapi, Magnus Borjeson, Johannes Bjork

Sound of Noise Trailer Film Trailer Review

I am not a big music fan myself but I find the trailer for the Sound of Noise to be fresh and interesting. This film intrigues me as the protagonists of the film dared to defy the convention, to exercise their definition of the highest form of musical art. I haven't seen this unique mixed of crime, comedy and music, and I think Sound of Noise will be the first I'll ever see one put into film.

Not everyone has the opportunity to watch international films, or even know that a good one has been released. Now thanks to the internet, we now are able so. I personally don't know a thing about this, not until now as I do this post and I can say I am pretty much intrigued on this cat-and-mouse musical film. I laughed a bit on how they made music on that poor patient, but we all know that what they are doing is potentially acts of crime (if not terrorism). But when a film makes one forget that what they are doing is wrong and makes you cheer for them, it has to mean that the film is doing something good, right? I don't mind reading subtitles and I don't think it doesn't take away from the film.

Rock of Ages Film Trailer Review

Before we even had movies, people were already going into theaters for theatrical plays and musicals. Musicals are one of the first forms of public and even sophisticated form of entertainment. There have been and still are, a slew of various Broadway and theatrical play artists that have entered Hollywood (Bollywood, etc.), and this is probably why the entertainment industry came up with the musical film genre. To cater to the same musical loving film audience.

Rock of Ages is another musical film based on a similarly entitled and popular broadway musical. Hollywood has this of attitude of taking something that works and making it into film and in a way that worked well up to this day. The plot is vaguely hinted on the trailer and it is how it should be. For the plot, acting and production value are the main and only factors that makes musical films successful. This musical film trailer somehow put a smile on my face as I watched it and I am not even into musicals so that itself is a testimony that this trailer works. Nostalgia and rock music plays a major role in the marketability of this title, and this is why I am fearlessly predicting that this would be an entertaining film.
