Black Noise

So, What was the weapon/monster? Don't know.

Why was Alex Pettyfers character late to the initial meeting and what was he recovering from? Don't know. (Gets explained in the last 5 minutes)

Why wasn't Alex pettyfers character affected by the noise? Don't know.

Why could he see the monsters/people/enemy? Don't know

Why were two female soldiers in an elite army unit crying a lot? Don't know.

Made with a micro budget for the weak of mind by extremely untalented people. Why would the actors say yes to this nonsense? Don't know.

No idea why this was green lit, but I will make a note of everyone involved and make sure never to watch anything made by them again.

Seriously, did the director and cast and all the rest ever watched the movie end to end and said yeah let's release it. It's totally nonsense, beginning to end. The acting, omg I definitely need to try it, bet I cannot do worse than any of the cast.

Do yourself a favor and avoid like plague. I had to sit through it till the end for you, doing God's work. Again, I beg you to not waste time and just 1* this **** so hopefully they learn to do better (I doubt smh)

Can't believe they release this nonsense, who gives money for this **** to be produced, just... I cannot understand, nothing makes sense!!

You can tell that this was a low budget movie by the bad acting. The production was fine, the story has real potential, but the acting is just... mediocre at best. No one, except Alex Pettyfer at times, makes me believe that they are actual soldiers for hire, with a tonne of experience, who know what they're doing, who are hardened by passed missions. It's disappointing that seemingly no one picked up on that during shooting. Even I, as a complete noob, would've picked up on that and suggested that they perhaps hire a few ex military guys to help shape the characters. Instead it gives off the feeling of a group of friends with pretty cool equipment who decided to chill on a beautiful island and "make a movie", their own fun little project.

This is a low budget, badly written, badly directed movie.

You basically have 5 people walking around randomly pointing guns as if they are doing some tactical SWAT stuff. It's like nobody had any weapons training.

These cosplay SWAT fellas can't even climb over a gate. They need to wait for the techie to hack the console.

One moment the team is casually walking in and talking loudly. The very next minute, they decide to put on tactical gears and pull out their weapons and start doing recon. Absolutely deprived of logic.

Visually, this looks slightly better than those cheaply shot adult movies. And in all honesty, there's better script in those adult movies.

Don't waste your time on this.

I will try to be spoiler free, but the TL;DR opinion is it's terrible. Lots of great ideas on an individual basis, but all mashed together into an incomprehensible mess.

The trailer looked downright interesting. A mercenary team hired to pull an extraction from an island reserved for the rich and shameless.

So far, so good, a bit of a mystery backstory why a late addition to the team shows up, but no worries, adds to the intrigue.

Once they get to the island, everything starts falling apart. They are assaulted by some kind of white noise generator that causes them to bleed out of their ears and behave erratically.

There is hints in the film this might be the work of a hostile gov't or possibly ETs. All kinds of hooks and ideas. Again, so far, so good. Acting is acceptable, lighting is good to "interesting" (a fair overuse of gel filters and saturation cranked up to 11...but it's possible it was on purpose to simulate mental breakdown) but the CGI where used (sparingly, thankfully) was truly wretched.

Unfortunately the build-up of the mystery is thrown away in a rush to reach the end where the director and/or writer ran out of ideas and money in a truly dreadful and nonsensical way.

Quite the shame really, a lot of the ideas, taken separately held promise, but somewhere along the line (about 40 minutes into the film) the whole thing fell totally apart.

Skip it, it's dreadful. 3/10 at best.
