In this absurdist comedy, only a tone deaf cop can stop six renegade percussionists who use their surroundings as instruments to create sonic chaos.
A woman sets a metronome and speeds down a highway while her partner rocks out on the drums. After an interaction with a motorcycle cop messes up their flow, they chuck the instruments and ditch the van. It turns out that they are artists, looking to cleanse the city of crappy music and to that end, they get working on their grand symphony entitled "music for the city and six drummers."
"Music for the city and six Drummers," is their four part musical masterpiece created with non-musical instruments, specifically. Each act is more daring, bold and illegal than the last and they manage to pull them off successfully, only being caught at the end of the show.
Amadeus Warnerbring is a tone deaf cop who was born to a very musically inclined family. Needless to say he hates music and is the black sheep his family. He has taken on this case because he hates music. He also discovers that whatever they use as instruments loses their sound (to him) and he has to find them before his world goes completely silent.
Sound of Noise has to be one of the most original and creative movies that I have ever seen. Granted it's foreign, (meaning it could have been done before) but it's still something that seems 100% original, so I gravitated toward it. That's what grabbed my attention.
For obvious reasons, there is a lot of music in this film and it works. Never becomes overbearing. They've used power lines, bulldozers, and even live people and the sound mixing was done well enough to where I could see shit like this being real.
Explosions? Musical...Explosions?
Nudity? Yeah, but nothing worth it. Trust me.
