The Ultimate Playlist Of Noise doesn’t provide the sensory experience you want it to. In the time before his surgery, he plans a cross-country trip that will allow him to capture the great sounds of the world, from the wind rushing past while driving 80mph, to lapping waves, to 100 soda cans being opened at the same time. He’s initially despondent and suicidal from this news, but his energy returns when he is hit with inspiration. They need to be surgically removed, and a side effect from the operation will be that he loses his hearing. Marcus wakes up in a hospital after having a seizure at a rock club, and after tests are run it’s discovered that he has tumors in his brain. His melomania is driven by memories of his musician brother, who died in a fire trying to rescue him when he was younger, but that tragic episode from his childhood proves to just be a preview of the drama awaiting him in his late teens.
#THE ULTIMATE PLAYLIST OF NOISE MOVIE#
The new Hulu movie is admittedly targeted toward a different, younger audience, and it does have its affecting, emotional moments, but anyone who watches both will instantly recognize how one is very much in the other’s shadow.īennett Lasseter’s feature directorial debut and based on an original screenplay by Mitchell Winkie, The Ultimate Playlist Of Noise’s aforementioned music-loving protagonist is Marcus (Keean Johnson) – a teen who loves music so much that he’s known around school for being the ideal person to hit up if in need of a perfect playlist (I’m hard pressed to believe that this is a kind of social transaction that happens in real life, but the movie sells it well enough). The “scheduling” issue is that the film is being released less than two months after Darius Marder’s Sound Of Metal – the remarkable drama starring Riz Ahmed that delves into the same arena with exponentially more power. Viewed in a vacuum, it’s an emotional albeit familiar coming of age story that has an interesting hook in that it centers on a music-loving protagonist’s journey coping with the news that they are losing their hearing. The release of Bennett Lasseter’s The Ultimate Playlist Of Noise is a perfect case.
