TOMATOMETER
Rising star Riz Ahmed is a revelation as a punk-band drummer whose hearing is disappearing. Watching his character process information is riveting...
Chicago Sun-Times
It’s a small film made larger by Ahmed’s ability to take something so interior -- hearing loss -- and make it so visible, so palpable.
Washington Post
Sometimes it sounds like we’re underwater; other times there’s a shrill, high-pitched hum around the perimeter of the dialogue. Combined with Riz Ahmed’s nuanced, naturalistic lead performance, the result is a palpably empathetic experience.
A.V. Club
[T]he standout element is Ahmed’s magnificent performance; he plays Ruben as a man as tightly stretched as the skin of his snare drum.
Sight and Sound
On a visceral level, the immersive sound design adds to an uncannily engaging film experience.
Total Film
4 stars out of 5 -- The movie opens with a blistering performance -- SOUND OF METAL does that thing music dramas rarely do: deliver rocking-out authentically -- so shredding and loud it practically gives you ringing ears.
Empire
The fragility of daily existence is captured empathetically and compassionately in Darius Marder’s excellent SOUND OF METAL.
