- 83The Film StageJared MobarakThe Film StageJared MobarakEaton and co-writer Bryan Delaney have crafted their script with skillful precision.
- 75IndieWireKate ErblandIndieWireKate ErblandRich in its execution and careful in its approach, The Sounding resonates.
- 70Wall Street JournalJoe MorgensternWall Street JournalJoe MorgensternMs. Eaton’s film can be trying for its messiness, challenging in its allusiveness, or precious in several spasms of ritual jubilation, but it’s never less than fascinating, and often beautiful, a communiqué in code from the far side of silence.
- 50The Hollywood ReporterFrank ScheckThe Hollywood ReporterFrank ScheckThat the film proves intriguing despite its overly familiar themes is a testament to the acting more than the writing. Eaton delivers a compelling, highly physical performance, using her endlessly expressive eyes to communicate her character's complex range of emotions and making us care about Liv despite the contrived plot mechanics.
