Sound of Freedom" continues to surprise, appearing on more than 4,000 screens as the number of theaters showing the hit film continues to climb for the fourth consecutive weekend. Despite its difficult subject matter, the independent film from Angel Studios dominated the summer box office, as total domestic box office revenues surged past $130 million and the movie played in 3,411 theaters entering its fourth weekend.

"And yet,...

Sound of Freedom Update | ALL LIES DEBUNKED | Latest Suppression Effort EXPOSED

Our culture wants complete sexual freedom but ignores the negative fallout that happens when those freedoms are abused. The film “Sound of Freedom,” which (fittingly enough) opened on the Fourth of July, has, unlike “Insidious” or the latest “Indiana Jones” film, continued to grow in popularity and as of this writing has earned some $85 million at the box office against its $14.6 million budget. In fact, despite scattered reports of certain theaters passive-aggressively bothering filmgoers, more and more theaters have picked up the film and added additional screenings. Despite the tenuous claims (based on the film’s distributor) that “Sound...

You would think that amidst countless disagreements between the Left and the Right, one vital area might see agreement: the welfare of children. You also would think that both sides would concur that luring children, grabbing them off the street, or snatching them at the border by those who sell them into sexual slavery, is truly abominable. Alas, you’d be wrong. A movie, The Sound of Freedom, making the rounds in America should not be political in any way. It is, after all, about a worldwide phenomenon that is despicable beyond words. If ever evil existed in the world, it...

“Sound of Freedom,” the movie of the moment, has a message first, and a story second. Its message is to get us to care more about the horrors of child sex trafficking. It does that by showing queasy sequences of kids in danger, being carted around by slimy adults, and making us remember everyone’s faces. Then it gives us a weary hero, Tim Ballard, an American man whose superpower is that he cares. This father and husband cares so much that he leaves his job at Homeland Security ten months before earning a pension. Instead of only catching pedophiles, as...

After seeing anti-human trafficking film Sound of Freedom earlier this week, President Trump has vowed to institute the death penalty for human traffickers if he earns a second term in the White House. Trump held the screening in Bedminster, New Jersey, and spoke with filmmaker Eduardo Verástegui and starring actor Jim Caviezel, who plays federal agent Tim Ballard who made it his mission to investigate human trafficking and rescue children. Verástegui was appointed as member of President Trump’s Advisory Commission on Hispanic Prosperity. He emphasized the importance of coming together as a society to address this pernicious evil and eradicate...

...It’s a complicated question, one that touches on the film’s unorthodox funding methods, its faith-based marketing, and its blend of traditional filmmaking with messaging that relentlessly tells its fans that the mere act of paying to see it is a virtuous and valorous act.... . . Variety’s Owen Gleiberman described it as a “solid thriller,” emphasizing that the film’s base appeal works even without the huge amounts of baggage that have been attached to it by its supporters and star... . .

How exactly did this happen? “Sound of Freedom” crossing the $100 million mark at the domestic box-office is some kind of achievement. It’s the highest earning independently-financed film of the year, by a long shot. It’s made more money than Oscar contenders “Tar,” “The Fabelmans,” “The Banshees of Inisherin,” “Women Talking” “Til,” and “Triangle of Sadness” combined. “Sound of Freedom” is set to make another $22-25 million this weekend. A domestic total of $200 million isn’t entirely out of the realm of possibilities, especially with the legs that it’s showing. When all is said and done, will it manage to...

Trump screened the film for a select group at his Bedminster club on Wednesday.The British newspaper led by describing Sound of Freedom as “a hit with Qanon devotees” – although in fact it has been a hit with moviegoers generally, beating Disney’s big-budget Indiana Jones movie when it debuted on July 4th and coming in second behind the latest installment of Mission: Impossible this past weekend.Legacy media outlets have been at pains to link Sound of Freedom and its...

Trump has regularly kept up his campaign schedule despite mounting legal problems, including two indictments to which he has pleaded not guilty.

I've been following the YouTube reactions to Sound of Freedom. A week ago or so, the YouTube videos and reactions were endless. Now it seems like almost all of the videos referring to it are older than a week old. This is odd as there have been so many interviews with Cavezial and Ballard.

Caviezel, who previously played Jesus Christ in Mel Gibson's The Passion of the Christ, is also drawing attention to the film in other ways. For years, he's been a prominent promoter of the false, violent QAnon conspiracy theory — specifically, the baseless claim that an international cabal of elites is abusing and killing children to extract a substance called adrenochrome. These wild claims have become deeply enmeshed with narratives about child trafficking in recent years, from the QAnon predecessor Pizzagate conspiracy theory, which falsely alleged a pizza parlor in Washington, D.C., was home to a child sex ring, to false...

A former NBC contributor who served as a spokesperson for pro-pedophile organization Prostasia has harsh words for new anti-child trafficking film "Sound of Freedom." The film, which has been praised by conservatives for bringing attention to the problem of human trafficking and child trafficking specifically, has been smeared by mainstream press and liberals as having ties to shadowy anti-pedophilia movement QAnon. For Berlatsky, who became the spokesperson for Prostasia in 2021, "Sound of Freedom" is a "QAnon dog whistle" that does "little to help victims" who are portrayed "as innocent and sympathetic as possible." Tim Ballard, on whose work the...

On Saturday, Bloomberg published a guest opinion piece by the former communications director of a pro-pedophile advocacy group. The article, titled “QAnon and ‘Sound of Freedom’ Both Rely on Tired Hollywood Tropes,” was a late arrival to media crusade against ‘Always With Honor’ — a film about, of all things, child trafficking. Freelance journalist Andy Ngo over the weekend pointed out the author of this Bloomberg piece, Noah Berlatsky, had an alarming history of defending pedophiles online.
