I loved the revenge
Added 8/27/2007
I just want to say that I loved it so much when Joyce slit Charlotte's throat in the middle of Charlotte's abusive rant. That could possibly be my favorite movie moment ever. I watched that clip over and over. And then Joyce got away with the murder. What a happy ending. I had contempt for Joyce until she got her revenge. This sort of thing happens all the time in real life, where a bully tries to ruin your life and it gets to the point where you don't have much choice but to fight back very hard. I really hate people that try to ruin other people's lives, and I'm so glad that Charlotte got what she deserved. This movie portrays a very realistic life situation and has a very happy ending. I loved it.

The noise that will keep you away from watching this movie!
Added 8/5/2007
I just saw this movie on TV at night. This movie doesn't make any real sense. Any smart person with half of a brain would just move out of that apartment from that noise and wacky neighbor. Also most girls in real life wouldn't go home with some random weird looking guy she meets in a seedy bar after giving bad "come on" lines and have sex with him at his place! The bar scene doesn't really work in modern times. But then she was drunk and traumatized after seeing her wacky neighbor half dead in a pool of blood. After all that, what her wacky neighbor really wanted was to make the main female character her personal assisstant at her company. Later on she becomes like her wacky neighbor after killing her. How ironic! The circle comes complete.

Its was good

I accidently saw this movie on tv in the early morning while being very bored. So I started watching it and couldnt get myself to change the channel. This was a indepentdeant low budget movie , of mostly dialog. But i held my attention. This suspense movie had me watching to see what would happen next. THe main plot of the movie is a young lady moves into a apartment and her neighbor just keep making to much noise with her sex and music and what not. This noise just keep build up and up and ruins the young ladys life. The ending is very surprising. It wouldnt hurt to watch this movie.

Implied echoes of a disturbing noise.

Low-budget, independent, but not overly artsy. Like others of its kind, it has a slightly unsteady, surreal feeling to it, lacking the glossing-over that one is accustomed to from mainstream Hollywood movies. To be honest, this film isn't entirely successful at pulling off its genre, and there are better, more developed films with the same basic idea but a greater amount of introspection and polish (in terms of acting, script and storyline). But Noise isn't half-bad - it's just not a full meal.
It's disturbing, rather graphic at times - watch out for a few (thankfully brief) explicit sex scenes, as well as moments of violence. But mostly, the screenplay is supposed to work on a psychoanalytical level... or at least that's my rationalisation for why some characters constantly talk like they're either psychics or psychiatrists. This makes for an awkward script filled with a lot of presumptions, although I suppose it's just an attempt to give the film an eerie, penetrating aspect.
The premise: a young woman, Joyce, moves into a new apartment after a failed relationship. The tenant above her space is insane (read: very eerily eccentric) and won't stop blaring loud music in the wee hours of the morning. Joyce's sleep suffers for this, and she seeks various ways to put an end to the disruptive noise, growing increasingly desperate and increasingly unhinged.
The ending... well, if you've seen movies of this genre (psychological, abstract, probing into human nature and whatnot), you can probably guess the ending, keeping in mind that this is supposed to be a psycho thriller/drama.
All this being said, it could've been a more intelligent film, but (like some other "deep," cerebral, abstract movies) Noise chose instead to end on a rather unsatisfying, trailing-off note.
A good watch if you don't mind the occasional explicitness and a medium amount of coarse language - but, if you are more for fast-paced action and a concrete plotline with everything laid out and explained, this may not be the film for you. Whatever you do, don't show it to young children... Noise shows a much darker side of humanity.

Sets watermark for a bad movie! MINUS 1 star!
Added 5/5/2005
This movie is unbelievably bad. From the poor acting, to the ridiculous actions the characters take, to the laugably stupid, hanging ending, to the ultra cheeze whiz dialogue ( who WROTE this abomination of a screen play?! YUK!)...The idea was a decent enough one, what happens when you have a nutjob living above you in an apt, but the absolutely ridiculous way this movie unfolds had me laughing at how stupid the thing was. I watched in fascination, just because the whole thing was so bad, it was sort of like watching a trainwreck or a scary movie, you can't look away! LOL ....Contender for worst movie of the last decade.
