Without ever having heard about this 2025 thriller from writer and director Brendan Devane, as I stumbled upon it by random chance, of course I opted to watch it. I do believe in giving all movies a fair chance, and thus also with "The Sound".
The storyline in the movie was a swing and a miss in terms of entertaining me. I struggled so hard to keep feigning an interest in the pointlessness that took place on the screen, yet I managed to endure the entire movie, hoping that the movie would get better. That just never happened. Right, well when Brad bit over the tether, yeah bit, I was good and ready to call it quits. That was just a nail in the coffin that was hard to ignore. Talk about laughable writing from writer Brendan Devane.
Personally I cannot fathom why people opt to scale mountains and put themselves at potential risk. But to each their own. And my disdain for mountain climbing possibly also transcended into not being overly thrilled or entertained by the scenes of the cast perched on the side of the mountain as they scaled it, or tumbled down it.
The only familiar face on the cast list for me was actor William Fichtner, and he was not in the movie for a particularly long period of time. The acting performances in "The Sound" were good, despite of the horrible script they had to work with.
