32 Sounds Reviews
Austin Chronicle
Joe Gross
On the whole, it's a satisfying meditation on how we organize, think about and process what we hear.
Variety
Peter Debruge
A uniquely mind-expanding plunge into a dimension of the human experience so many of us take for granted, a rare and rewarding sonic journey with the potential to enrich our lives.
Under the Radar
Kaveh Jalinous
As evident by the film's summary, sound is everything, and above all, 32 Sounds sounds amazing.
indieWire
David Ehrlich
This playful and aggressively pleasant little film is an easy sit, and the strength of its individual episodes -- in addition to the echoes that resonate between them -- helps to absolve the discordant chaos of their arrangement.
The Weekend Warrior
Edward Douglas
The theatrical doc version of it is just as effective, because it finds such a compelling way into its subject matter.

Glenn Kenny
"32 Sounds" hit my sound and vision sweet spot just fine most of the time.
Eye for Film
Jennie Kermode
If you listen closely to what this film has to say, you won't listen to the world the same way afterwards.
The Film Stage
Dan Mecca
As engaging and impressive a documentary as you're going to see, 32 Sounds starts with a kind of obvious--yet eminently under-asked--question: why do most of us take sound for granted?
NYC Movie Guru
Avi Offer
A meditative a sonic journey, but ultimately too broad and unfocused.
The Screening Room Podcast
Hope Madden
This movie is like a little miracle.
Spectrum Culture
Alan Zilberman
A little too disjointed for its own good, Green's film nonetheless creates a kind of meditative space that is more than unusual. It is unique.
Rolling Stone
David Fear
The sounds are finite, yet the benefits of tuning in to the film's wavelengths are endless. It's the greatest documentary you've ever heard.
Culture Mix
Carla Hay
It's more like a feature-length ASMR video than anything that is extraordinary or groundbreaking. The movie is inconsistent in how it labels the 32 sounds that inspired the documentary's title. Most of the anecdotes and sounds can keep viewers interested.
Newcity
Ray Pride
Immersive and singular... head trip of a special kind, taking the audience on thirty-two separate sound voyages. It rocks and rollicks: this is cinematic (and sonic) imagination at top form, sound with vision.
FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles)
Charles Solomon
I was very interested in the subject of this film... But it just doesn't go anywhere. It's just throwing things at the wall and hoping they stick.
48 Hills
Dennis Harvey
Amid the gamut of artfully assembled archival footage, interviews, animation, and hard science, we get some great trivia...
Los Angeles Times
Robert Abele
Since I'd readily "listen"-watch them all, that tells you 32 Sounds and I are very much on the same wavelength about appreciating its subject...
Vague Visages
Q.V. Hough
Green truly hears the collective subjects of 32 Sounds. Viewers unfamiliar with the director's filmography will immediately notice his open-minded perspective...
New York Times
Lindsay Zoladz
A relentlessly curious documentary...
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
A remarkable documentary and something you'll never forget.
