I don't normally give such low scores to movies - I try to focus on the positive instead of the negative. And certainly this movie offered solid acting, good production quality and what seemed to be a good script. I was engrossed by the various mysteries which were the subject of the movie. I *almost* enjoyed this movie, but the ending ruined the enjoyment of the rest of the movie because nothing got resolved at the end. There is the build up of these different mysteries, but they literally went no where. There is a rather non-sensical ending which did not address the outstanding questions or wrap up the mysteries in any way. Ultimately, it felt like the time I spent watching the beginning of the movie was a waste. I would love to watch this movie again, with a proper ending!!! So viewer beware - you will get sucked into the suspense of this movie, but IMO it ultimately goes nowhere.

I keep wondering about the rationale behind Netflix producing films with such weak screenplays. The little intrigue that the film offers quickly evaporates once the second act comes on, and the hallucinatory visions the protagonist (Ward Kerremans) keeps having, lack purpose. The protagonist's wife (Sallie Harmsen) takes the perspective of the audience, trying to make sense of it all - hers is the only performance that I took fair notice of, in this mess. The mystery (or the lack of) is so terribly sketched that I felt it had nothing to achieve, even though the protagonist keeps making such a big, nonsensical fuss. The makers also add a couple of pointless jumpscares. In the end, it just feels like you wholly wasted 90-odd minutes.

As "Noise" (2023 release from Belgium; 90 min.) opens, we are introduced to Matthias and Liv, a young couple with a newborn son. They are moving into the house where Matthias gre up with his dad. His dad is now in a seniors center. Matthias is having a hard time coping with the baby waking him up every night. Then one day, Matthias finds out that his dad was the CEO of a nearby chemical plant, which now stands abandoned. Why? At this point we are 10 min. Into the movie.

Couple of comments: this is a full-ledged production from Flanders, Belgium (the Dutch-speaking side of Belgium). I hail from Flanders, Belgium myself, and when I saw this in the newly added titles of Netflix, I just had to watch it. Alas, this is not a great movie. For that, the story line is simply too thin and scattered. This is not a "mystery" or a "thriller" or even a "psychological drama". It's a hodge-podge of lots of genres but in the end can't decide what it really wants to be. The most interesting thing about the movie is the sound construction, piecing together all kinds of irritating noises, none more so than the baby cries, again and again, and again, but also things like the car wash sounds, a fruit blender, etc. We get the point: Matthias is overwhelmed by noises. The cast features Sallie Harmsen as Liv (she also starred in "Blade Runner 2049").

"Noise" started streaming on Netflix just this weekend. Unless you are from Flanders, Belgium and are simply curious as to what a Flemish movie can do, I don't know that I can recommend this film in good conscience to anyone. Of course don't take my word for it, so check it out and draw your own conclusion.

This is one of the worst movies I've ever seen. It's like a bunch of people had a bunch of ideas and they just threw them all into a hat and put them together into a movie that makes absolutely no sense! There is zero backstory so you have no clue what's going on. The main male character is trying to figure out some sort of mystery about his father's old factory that has nothing to do with the other theme of the movie. People in town are rude to the main female character but we are never given a reason why! I've never seen writing this poor on the screen! I wish I could get the time back I was waiting for the story to come together and make sense but it never did. Skip this one!

Even watching it at 1.5x speed and skipping 10 seconds every time the movie is boring and draggy. The supposed mystery is ridiculous, the protagonist is a terrible actor and there are a series of scenes of people in the city being hostile that make no sense and are not even explained. One of the worst scripts I've seen in a while, if there ever was a script. I assume that maybe there were more scenes but the movie got so much more boring that they must have cut it because there's a lot of nonsense. All in all, one of the worst movies I've ever seen. Don't waste your time, watch any 1959 Twilight Zone episode that in 25 minutes has more emotion and mystery than this movie pastiche.

This movie was a stream of non-coherent thoughts thrown together in a movie. There's nothing to follow because there is nothing there.

I watched this movie and still have no idea what the hell went on because It didn't make ANY sense... and where is the brother? We see that he hanging on for dear life then... nothing. Does he make it? Does his sister find out what happened to him?

How in the world did this movie get green lit?

If you need some noise while you vacuum, give it a go. But don't bother sitting down to give your full attention to this mess of a movie. You will be disappointed at the loss of 90 minutes of your life that you will never get back.

I stumbled upon the 2023 Dutch mystery thriller titled "Noise" by perusing the Netflix catalogue of movies. And with this movie, from director Steffen Geypens, being a brand new movie that I hadn't already seen, of course I opted to watch it.

The synopsis sounded interesting enough to catch my attention. However, I didn't know what to expect from writers Steffen Geypens, Robin Kerremans and Hasse Steenssens.

However, the storyline was rather slow paced, dull and monotonous. Running at 89 minutes, there was surprisingly little of any worth taking place on the screen. There was nothing scary, nor were there the least bit of thrills or excitement either. And that made for a rather boring movie experience.

Given my limited exposure to the Dutch cinema, then I wasn't familiar with a single actor or actress on the cast list. The acting performances in the movie were fairly okay, though the performers had very little material to work with.

Visually then you're not in for anything grant or exciting. But then again, since there was nothing thrilling or scary in the movie, then there really wasn't much use or necessity for special effects.

"Noise" was a swing and a miss of a movie. And believe me when I say that I am never returning to watch this movie a second time, because it was struggle to sit through it the first time. If you enjoy a good mystery thriller, then there are far, far better movies out there to pick from.

My rating of "Noise" lands on a very generous three out of ten stars.

Super boring and pointless, as most reviewers noted. I can believe that some people liked the movie - different strokes and all that - but I cannot believe that all the 10-, 9- , and 8-star reviews posted around the same time are legit. I absolutely HATE it when people are enlisted to goose the ratings of terrible films. Why not just make a better film and not subject people to yours if it sucks? (sigh)

With 30 minutes remaining of "Noise," I realized there still wasn't a single point of action or suspense. The rude reactions of people in the village when the wife came around was interesting, but then the matter was just kinda dropped. And then, for some inexplicable reason, the wife got all angry at the shopkeeper - the only person who was at all welcoming.

There were a few "spooky" sight gags, but none of them figured into a larger story. I could give specifics, but don't want to risk people not reading my review due to spoilers and making the mistake of tuning into this turkey.

Oh, and that baby cried all the time. He'd drive me nuts, too. That baby sucked.

I wasn't going to review, but then I saw all these people raving about it and realized....if real people don't leave honest reviews, movies like this end up with inflated scores that make no sense.

This movie is a hot mess.

It attempts to carry off two parallel plots but it doesn't, really, do justice to either. The "twist" isn't actually a twist so much as a bait and switch kind of thing, where you're led to believe the big mystery is the main plot, and then toward the end you realize it was merely a device to illustrate the main characters deteriorating mental health. And, you also discover, the actual plot is something that's only been hinted at (main characters relationship with his father), which they're going to withhold a key detail on until the end.... I guess as some sort of weak explanation for the ninety minutes of SCREECHING crying baby and shenanigans you've endured.

Maybe it would have benefitted from some flashbacks, IDK. At the end of the day, it didn't do enough to make me care about any of the people involved....and it definitely didn't make me care enough that I wanted to do the work to figure out two thinly stretched together plots.

But, I mean, at least Ward Kerremans is fun to look at.

Definately Watch! There are clues as to what, why and then where. Everything is there. All is answered. Just have to watch, pay attention and read (the translations of) the article headlines Matti brings up on his screen. Must read (the translation of) what Liv is reading in the photo album. Its all there. The reason why everyone in the village is stand-offish is assumed by what is in the articles' headliners. Very good movie... ending was complete... all questions were answered or assumed 'finished'.... (any other word here might give something away). Very much enjoyed this movie after reading so many negative reviews. Will watch again to see if I missed any other subtle clues. 8 out of 10.

This movie it far beyond the common sense , nothing it seem make any sense , This movie is the one of the terrible , awful movie of my list , Badly wasting my time , Bad in every perspective

I gave 1 point because it not allow me to give -100 point and 1 point it from the name of the movie and the sound content in the movie it related , the sound in the movie was so noisy and so annoying .

If you looking for some Fun and good movie this movie is not for you But If you want to wasting your time or you have so much time in your life and don't know where to spent it this movie might be you choice and then you experienced the awful 90 min of your life .

The good point of this movie was after you finished this movie your will have a fun time with everything because you experienced the terrible time enough , nothing gonna be worst than this movie

Have fun my friend.

I've never written a movie review before, but holy hell, what on earth was that. They had a few okay ideas, albeit incredibly cliche, and then proceeded to leave every single loose end untied.

The entire factory narrative served 0 purpose. The ending is a crime against film itself. Nothing was resolved at all, leaving every single plot line entirely pointless. I have no idea what the story was or what even happened. I went back and rewatched parts because I thought I must have missed something, but nope. I did not.

Even.giving this film 1 star is generous. They must've watched it back after ending filming and thought "this is utter garbage, but hey we've gotta put something out to appease out investors"

I'm genuinely mad lol.

This movie could have been so many things.

It could have been what secrets the town holds for the son who has come back.

It could have been the secrets of the factory fire.

It could have been about the secrets of the father and his previous wife.

It could have been the slow descent of a marriage.

But no, the director/writer teased several ideas, and just tacked on a nonsensical ending that did not resolve any of the questions. This was a complete waste of time. Throw in the fact that the lead actor graduated from the Kneau Reeves/Kristen Stewart acting class, meaning he had the same constipated expression regardless of the scene or emotion he was supposed to have.

This movie deals with the idea of post-partum depression, which is a recognized, unfortunately not enough understood pathology even in our modern world. Therefore I granted it a passing grade, were it only for its purpose and intent.

Nonetheless, the movie is pretty slow and I must admit I had a hard time watching it till the end, since the whole point is not made so clear, it unfolds very slowly and actually getting the point is not an easy task for the viewer... The actors are doing their best, I should admit, but the script is slow and hard to follow.

Good intent, I must say, but still not a solid script, not enough build-up...

As this Belgian chiller opens a woman walks into the lake at a large rural property. Years later her son Matt and his wife Liv move into the house with their baby son. Matt's father has moved into a retirement home but one day he turns up at his old house and starts telling Matt a story about an abandoned factory in the town. As Matt starts investigating the site he begins to believe his father's story about people dying because of what when on there. As the story progresses be gets more and more paranoid and his relationship with Liv becomes strained.

I thought this was a decent enough film; the sort of thing that passes ninety minutes well enough then is soon forgotten. It started well enough and had a good atmosphere but at times I was unsure if what we were being shown was what was really happening or what Matt was seeing in his paranoid and possibly unhinged state... I suspect that was deliberate but it was a little confusing at times. It has a slightly creepy atmosphere rather than relying on jump scares or gore. The acting is solid enough; I particularly liked Sallie Harmsen's performance as Liv, probably the most normal of the characters. Overall not a must see but far from terrible.

These comments are based on watching the film in Flemish with English subtitles.

I have seen many boring movies, thx to Netflix, but this one needs a special mentions, the cry of the baby is made into a "Noise" that plays in your head..you automatically fast forward the movie, and the ending is so pointless.... If there is no good script, then people should avoid making films..... Few shots of the greenery and nature around is the only redeeming factor here...If you are planning to watch it, take aspirin with you... This is one of those movie where you think a slow build up with lead to something, but lo and behold the movie starts with a whimper, and ends with one... there's nothing to pull the plot... I am burning with the thought that this movie will be lost so quick that in the near future I may play it gain thinking it is some "new thriller"......hope that never happens ;)
