Critics Consensus: Despite the different musical genre, Feel the Noise is as generic as any music-themed film that has come before it.

Reggaeton has officially come of age: The burgeoning subgenre now has a terrible, opportunistic exploitation movie to call its own.
First-time screenwriter Albert Leon appears to have turned for music industry insight not to his famous producer (who has no excuses) but to other music-themed movies (Mariah Carey's Glitter, perhaps?).
No one will mistake director Alejandro Chomski's Feel the Noise for great drama. But there's an undeniable sweetness to the characters, the performers are highly appealing, and the music sizzles.
Could have used more music.
It's the subtexts -- about minority kinship and Hispanic self-actualization -- that resound. If only its fable (and leading man) didn't keep getting in the way.
The plot is contrived, the performances are all over the board, and Chomski's camera ogles his actresses just a little too much.
The music will satisfy fans, but when the action returns to New York this becomes as annoying as a skipped CD.
A cool blend of Puerto Rican and Nuyorican rhythmic, racial and family ties that bind, Feel The Noise likewise taps into a hot fusion of African derived sounds and sensibilities that connect those multiple cross-continental roots together.
It's hard to fault a screenwriter for cramming every idea he's ever had about anything into his first movie for fear there won't be a second.
Producer Jennifer Lopez's cameo in the film's climactic Puerto Rican Day parade sequence feels like a victory lap for successfully bilking film financiers and moviegoers out of their money.
Dramatic tension and narrative momentum are MIA.
Possibly the least provocative hip-hop movie ever that didn't star Lil' Bow Wow, Feel The Noise is the kind of feel-good/kid-with-a-dream-overcomes-the-odds story we're used to seeing starring white kids named Hilary or Lance.
Movie needed more substance...fairly good though.

A 90-minute reggaeton music video and soundtrack commercial.
