Movie Reviews

Leader Newspapers, New Jersey - 10/10 by Kam WilliamsKene Holliday, who many might remember as Andy Griffith's African-American sidekick on the TV series Matlock back in the late Eighties, revitalizes his career here with a nonpareil outing which ought not be forgotten come Oscar time.
TV Guide Magazine - 10/10 by Ken FoxThe result is a beguiling and often poignant pageant of outsider musicians, but the broken heart of this extraordinary film comes directly from Zobel's own personal experience.
L.A. Weekly - 9/10 by Tim GriersonA fitting 21st-century addition to the genre. The film's meager plotting and casual melancholy peg it as a modest indie, but these ingredients dovetail nicely with Zobel's bigger theme about the futility of the modern world.
Washington Times - 9/10 by Christian TotoGreat World of Sound is a corrosive antidote to "American Idol."
WBAI Web Radio - 8/10 by Prairie MillerNo matter what's real or rehearsed, Great Wall Of Sound couldn't come any closer to the truth.
St. Paul Pioneer Press - 8/10 by Chris HewittThe film's agenda becomes clear so early that the middle hour or so seems to be marking time until we get to the end.
St. Paul Pioneer Press - 8/10 by Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)The film's agenda becomes clear so early that the middle hour or so seems to be marking time until we get to the end.
Charlotte Weekly - 8/10 by Sean O'ConnellIt's evident early on that this is a scam, though the extent of the movie's con is surprising.
Seattle Times - 8/10 by Ted FryA quiet, clever and sometimes moving film about an unusual grifting lifestyle.
Hollywood Reporter - 8/10 by John DeForeA movie about conscience that flatly refuses the catharsis and redemption a mainstream feature would demand, Great World of Sound is a dirty gem, shining despite the modesty of its production.
