The Ultimate Playlist of Noise

4 out of 5 stars.

It is a strong emotional journey about a coming of age story when a young teen has a seizure. To only find out he has a tumor. It can be removed in his brain but it will have complications that will take away his hearing. He decides to plan a road trip and make a playlist of sounds along the way. Which he runs into Wendy (Madeline Brewer) which she is also on the run to new york. They both go together. Making memories and recording sounds.

The plot is good. Cute and emotional. Keean Johnson and Madeline Brewer did a fantastic job with there characters. The idea of losing hearing is tough. The noises of music. Nature. Voices and so much more taken away can be scary. The movie does not into that teen romance cliche. Which is a good thing. But the chemistry of the two characters is sweet and perfecr when they are on screen.

Great cast. Fun direction and music score. The plot is good with an emotional characterization. It is definitely worth checking out.

I am sure that I am going to like this film far more than the average viewer as it touches home. I am a musician, and music has played a huge role in my life. I inherently connected to this character before the story began. As the story went on, I found myself laughing at the titular playlist because some of my favorite sounds were on it, and I have literally thought about the emptiness their absence might bring. Had the film left it at that, and really explored the character's fears and reservations about his new life, I think that it would have been more impactful than the conflict that is introduced. I think that there is something in this film that everyone can enjoy!

6/10 - this Hulu Original teen romance attempts to follow in the footsteps of several of the past decade's teen movie hits (particularly the John Green film adaptations: The Fault in Our Stars and Paper Towns), but has some problematic messaging and simply fails to elicit the emotional response it clearly desires

I was charmed by this story and especially by it's central characters! Marcus' Playlist took me back through my life to remember and really appreciate many of my favorite sounds. The message for me was to pay attention to everything in life as it happens instead of succumbing to distraction. Focus and BE HERE NOW as Ram Dass said. I loved this so much I'll buy the DVD!

To know how lucky we live with a health body now, to know sickness is painful and what's the point of living without health. It's totally not boring to watch about a serious topic but still little heavy to me.
