Sound of Freedom

"Jim Caviezel anchors a solidly made and disquieting thriller about child sex trafficking. It's been sold as a 'conservative' thriller, but you don't need that mindset to find it compelling." 

"The QAnon-tinged thriller about child-trafficking is designed to appeal to the conscience of a conspiracy-addled boomer (...) It’s a stomach-turning experience (...) the movie is hobbled by a near-total absence of procedural logic." 

"[It] takes place in, and posits to be, a tough conversation piece about the world of child sex trafficking, but it’s hardly any more informational than a horror movie about bogeymen (...) A solemn, drawn-out bore. (...) Rating: ★★ (out of 4)" 

"So it’s hard to tell if this movie avoids any conventionally exciting set pieces out of scrupulousness or just lack of inspiration. Oddly, the picture’s muted tone ultimately undercuts its solemn sense of mission." 

"This isn't a thoughtful examination or a ruminative character study, 'Sound of Freedom' is a straight up call to arms. (...) it's effective, the same way a punch to the stomach is effective" 

"A story that is at best embellished and, whether intentionally or by coincidence, profiting off conspiracy-fueled mass hysteria" 

"It's weirdly boring, its tension and intensity diluted by cornball overtures... and Caviezel's long, slow, brooding stares"
