Sound of Metal

sound of metal is a film that almost passed me by. i had only vaguely heard of it as the end of the year approached and it popped up on a few lists of potential oscar nominations. it didn't really register to me until just at the end of the year that this was something i should check out. and man, better late then never. riz ahmed deserves all of the awards love he's going to receive for his role here as ruben, one half of a metal act whose life gets thrown into chaos when he loses his hearing. a recovering addict as well who is having problems coping with his hearing loss and hoping for an... read more

it is a touching story of deafness that is a far more thoughtful than i was expecting. riz ahmed gives a very good, nuanced performance and shows that he can lead a film. almost everything in the film hinges on his performance and he delivers. olivia cooke is going to win an oscar someday, she doesn't get a ton to do in sound of metal, but the potential is there and at some point she will have a role where it all just lines up and everyone will be act stunned. it was great to see a working actor like paul raci who has done a bunch of bit parts in tv get a chance with a great role like this... read more

91/100 Заранее не знал про что фильм, увидел только Сиенфрэнса в качестве сценариста и похожего на Гослинга из "Место под соснами" Риза Ахмеда на постера сидящего за ударными, ещё и название - Звук металла. Тащмта, я подумал фильм будет про РОЦК. Как же я ошибался. Кароч, когда на 10-й минуте фильма гг оглох, я ахуел. Ахуел и с того, как же они будут дальше строить историю, и с того, как реалистично это было сделано, я уж подумал, это у меня самого уши нахуй заложило. В принципе, после этого фильм для меня смотрелся больше как хоррор, потому что лишиться одного из чувств, это действительно... read more

Film is probably the only medium that can provide an in-depth look at deafness. Sound of Metal is therefore in great company with films such as The Tribe and Touch The Sound (and maybe even A Quiet Place). Both the direction and lead performance are superb. Suddenly going deaf, means nothing else than having to come to terms with a whole new reality. It would be inaccurate to state that deafness is merely the abscence of hearing, it's an experience in its own right, and seeing how the protagonist must come to terms with this is probably the strongest and most universal aspect of the film. I... read more

powerful sound design, and a beautiful soul ride through the troubled mind of our protagonist, brilliantly portrayed by riz ahmed read more

the audio effects in this film is incredible read more

i am an extreme creature of habit. i don't really like change unless i know everything going in. something unexpected happens, as ruben says, it's "not a good day". given a similar situation, i'd probably end up doing something similar to ruben, learn to deal with it, and attempt to go back to normal. except most of the time, there's not really a way back to normal, which is what makes this ending so powerful. ruben accepts that his life is forever changed when he gets what he wants after he gives up everything. obviously, the sound editing here is phenomenal, do yourself a favor and watch... read more

البلاء نعمة .. فاستغله لنفسك . هذه كانت اهم رسائل الفيلم الجميل الذي يتحدث الينا عن كيفية معالجتنا لمشاكلنا الذاتية استخدم الفيلم مشكلة فقدان السمع , و كيفية التعامل معها , و لكن لم يكن يقصد السمع فقط , وإنما قصد منه كل مشكلة . كثيرا ما نواجه مشاكل تجعلنا محبطين , عاجزين , مشتتة افكارنا و لكن في حال تقبلنا الوضع و جمعنا شتات انفسنا سننعم بالسلام النفسي . فكل ما علينا هو الرضا و القبول بقدر الله سواء كنت متدين , او التعايش مع مصيبتك التي في رأيك مبدأيًا هي مصيبة و لكن هي ليست كذلك اطلاقا . _____________________________ حرق للفيلم__________________________________ الفيلم بدأ بالصخب و الضجيج و... read more

after spending a lifetime surrounded by noise, the silence is terrifying. and it's worse when there's something in the noise that's an integral part of you... it would be a terrible shock for me, and it definitely is for ruben. so, to build all of this, the movie uses a lot of simple tools that really work here. the whole soundscape of the film is wonderful, it really makes you feel like you are him, and what's happening to him is happening to you. and consequently, the exploration of his character is great. ruben's pure fighting against his deafness and what it causes to the people around... read more

now i will forever cherish my ability to hear aswell as look into ways to prevent hearing loss. riz ahmed is some actor, loved the emotion he put into this performance. read more

boah bin ich froh, dass es riz ahmed gibt! kaum einem schauspieler schaue ich aktuell so gerne zu wie ihm!! nachdem ich heute von finchers mank etwas enttäuscht war, hat mich sound of metal dafür umso härter getroffen! der film hat es geschafft mir das gefühl zu geben, nachempfinden zu können, wie es ist, (teilweise) taub zu sein. die geschichte wird intensiv und nah erzählt, genau wie ich das mag. olivia cooke darf hier auch nicht übergangen werden - sie hat noch nichts gespielt, was mir nicht gefallen hat! auch von ihr kann man sicher noch eine menge erwarten. ps: auf amazon prime auf... read more

although almost all the films that talk about self-improvement after a sudden change in life, have a similar structure, i must say that it is very well done. read more

"Sound of Metal" is a captivating cinematic experience that artfully delves into the profound journey of a musician's struggle with sudden hearing loss. This masterfully crafted film, directed by Darius Marder, succeeds in conveying the emotional turmoil and resilience of its protagonist, Ruben Stone, portrayed by Riz Ahmed. At its core, the movie is a poignant exploration of acceptance and adaptation. Ruben's life takes an unexpected turn when he begins to lose his hearing, an essential aspect of his identity as a drummer in a heavy metal band. The narrative tactfully navigates his read more

Sound of Metal: Throbbing Eternity By Roxana Hadadi ESSAYS — SEP 27, 2022 If our lives are stories, our bodies are the pages on which our triumphs, catastrophes, and ecstasies are printed: birthmarks as inheritance and wrinkles as legacy; scars as memories and tattoos as confessionals. In Darius Marders Sound of Metal (2019), Riz Ahmeds Ruben Stone bares all of himself from the first moment he appears on-screen, shirtless and intent behind a drum kit. His head is bowed as if in prayer as he waits for his cue; the only light in the room gleams off the cymbals, as dirty-gold as his read more

The sound if metal is evicts the true pain of losing one's sense. The fear, the anger the sadness all through the eyes of an ex-addict, drummer. Riz Ahmed does a wonderful job of showing these emotions and making you feel his pain without any score additions. The lack of score allows Ahmed's emotions tell the story as well as allow you to understand the missing piece of his life as we lose the sounds usually connected to movies. read more
