Which actually makes it appear way louder than it is ... well it is likely that that will be the case - so no pun intended. The movie may have an issue with some - especially when it comes to the psychologically brutal scenes - bullying is not fun at all. And seeing that happen to someone, may make you feel a lot of anger and other negative (understandable) emotions.
So it will be tough to find a person to root for ... and even when you find one, you may find yourself changing opinion ... we all have done stuff we may not be too happy about. Fret not though ... I think there is at least one character you will find morally good ... if that is what you are looking for.
Of course just because you have (at least) one here, doesn't mean they will end up on top ... this has quite a lot of twists and turns ... and goes back and forth timeline wise ... but it works like a charm. ... if you let it that is! Suspend your disbelief and just watch this for the crime thriller that it is ... really well done, flaws and all included.

"A Place Called Silence" really had me hooked from the beginning. It's one of those movies that keeps you on the edge of your seat, always making you wonder about what's happening next-who's behind something, why they did it, and who's in the right. It's all very engaging and definitely keeps your brain ticking as you try to unravel the story.
That said, the movie does get a bit messy. There are too many side plots and some confusing turns that don't always get resolved by the end. It felt like the film could have used a bit of trimming to keep things clearer and more focused.
Despite the clutter, I was intrigued all the way through. I didn't hate it; actually, I quite enjoyed the ride. It could have been cleaner, but overall, "A Place Called Silence" is still worth a watch if you're into movies that make you think and keep you guessing.

I absolutely dislike this kind of movie that involves bullying. For the plot, it just doesn't make sense that surrounding people will just ignore cases like that. So that is where the unrealistic part comes in to the movie that differentiate real life and movie.
Now I know people will have some issues with this movie, probably got some unasnwered questions mostly coming from "why they didn't do that" or "why she did this" . But again, I think this is a perfect representation of "what ifs" that isn't impossible to happen in real life.
The ending for me is very satisfying and the message of "bystander effect" and its influence on the victim gets conveyed beautifully.
Although I would not watch this movie again simply how depressing it is, I think everyone should try and get the message from this movie. Overall 10/10.

A Place Called Silence is a thriller masterpiece that managed to amaze me from start to finish. With a suspenseful plot and unexpected twists around every corner, this film really tests our ability to guess the plot.
At first, this film seemed like a fairly ordinary thriller. However, as time went on, the story began to become more complicated and full of puzzles. Every time I thought I knew who the real culprit was, a new plot twist appeared that brought me back to square one.
The technique of delivering the plot twist in this film is very slick. The director managed to trick the audience by giving false clues and keeping important information secret until the last second. The acting of the players also really supported it, making it even more difficult for us to guess who was actually guilty.
If you like films with complex and unexpected plot twists, A Place Called Silence is the right choice. This film is guaranteed to keep you thinking and wondering until the end. 10/10.

I'm quite surprised that this is a Chinese movie. Unlike many traditional Chinese films, it avoids overly dramatic scenes and dialogues, delivering a refreshing and modern take on storytelling. The effects are impressive, and the color saturation of the film is spot on, enhancing its overall aesthetic appeal. The cinematography is carefully crafted, creating a visually striking experience that perfectly complements the narrative. The pacing is steady and keeps you engaged without overwhelming you, which is a rarity in some Chinese productions. What's even more remarkable is how the film tackles its themes with subtlety and sophistication, proving that Chinese cinema is evolving in exciting ways. It's a step forward, showing that there's hope for Chinese films to break free from the clichés and compete on a global scale. This movie offers a perfect balance of style and substance, making it a must-watch for anyone who appreciates quality filmmaking. A truly promising example of how far Chinese cinema has come!
