The movie straitjackets Keaton into a humorless, table-pounding role.
No, this isn't an adaptation of Don DeLillo’s great 1985 novel, but a muddled talking-ghosts movie.
It is a grim and monotonous affair despite the overkill of bad guys -- a trio of evil spirits plus a bonus serial killer -- mixed with a few cheap shocks futilely intended to make the audience jump.
Christian Science Monitor by David Sterritt
Beneath its regrettably banal surface, White Noise raises the creepy question of whether intimidating, even malign forces may be lurking in those fancy gadgets that fill our living rooms and offices.
The Hollywood Reporter by Kirk Honeycutt
Geoffrey Sax, a British television director making his theatrical debut, lavishes enough craft on the paranormal thriller to send more than a few chills down the spine.
The New York Times by Manohla Dargis
A film worthy neither of Mr. Keaton's talents nor even a desperate horror fan's attention.
Chicago Tribune by Michael Wilmington

Philadelphia Inquirer by Steven Rea
Has a low-key tone that works in its favor for a time.
