Just so...so bad

a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

A brilliant comedian/drama. A great movie for those who likes music, i mean, good music :P. Since the first frame to the last one the persons gets (infected) by the sound of the "noise", by the striking rhythms and the fascinating harmonies created along the "play". The mystery behind each character helps in infection created by the noise. All plays different from each other surprising us with what you can create with the power of the imagination and the talent raised in the back of our minds. Certainly a good movie with a good story, and a great soundtrack. I would strongly recommend to see, and hearing the music present in there.

Amadeus Warnebring was born to a musical family. The only problem early in his life Amadeus the family realize he is deaf. As there is no future in music for him, Amadeus decides to become a policeman. As a detective he is able to function because his ability to read lips, thus he is able to make a career as a detective when we first meet him.Sanna Persson, a woman with an ambition to do her own kind of music, is not exactly what one would expect. Her music is eclectic and different. She is the composer of a musical project "Music for the City and Six Drummers" a complex undertaking to create music using the most bizarre methods. Helped by Magnus, she embarks on a journey to recruit men capable of playing the most outrageous instruments besides the drums. Their tactics baffle everyone and the police, who consider they are simply terrorists.This wonderful Swedish comedy was jointly directed by Ola Simonsson and Johannes Stjarne Nilsson. The main idea seems to be questioning our tastes in music. While Amadeus comes from a classical musicians, the great conductor Oscar Warnebring is Amadeus' brother, the creators are merely asking why are we so against to listen to music that appears to be strange to our ears. Sanna and her group want to incorporate everyday sounds into compositions that while different, are not completely horrible. In fact, there are cadences in some of the pieces that are even tuneful.Amadeus' own world is silence, and yet, he can understand what Sanna and the band are trying to accomplish. Bengt Nilsson gives a good performance as the deaf detective. Sanna Persson appeared in the directors' own "Music for One Apartment and Six Drummers", which seem to have been the basis for this full length feature.Shot in and around Malmo, Sweden, which the cinematographer Charlotta Tengroth captures for our enjoyment. The music was created by Fred Avril, Magnus Borgeson and Six Drummers. The film does not disappoint.

Viewed at the Festival du Film, Cannes 2010Now that you've read the plot summary... Okay, a group of drummers terrorise a city with their daring musical 'raids' while a tone deaf, music hating, detective tries to track them down... The Sound of Noise is the kind of dark comedic madness only the Scandinavians do so well: percussionists as musical terrorists laying down the beat for an entire city.This is a conceit built around the musicians themselves, taking several of their set-piece numbers and weaving them into a narrative structure. In this sense, seen as a film with the classic three act structure, story and character development etc., Sound of Noise is less successful. But as a showcase for amazing musical ability and sheer imagination, this film cannot be beaten.

"Music for an apartment and six drummers" has reached so called cult status on Youtube. Here is a full length version of the same idea. You can use a hospital patient as percussion, you an surely also use bank note destroyers for the same purpose, not to talk about caterpillars.True drum anarchy and if you're into this kind of humour, you will find this incredibly funny. The plot is thin, on purpose, and includes a tone deaf police inspector. He's coming after the percussion terrorists.This Swedish movie really has its chances to be some kind of cult hit abroad. But you must like rhythm.
