Entertainment Reviews:
[D]isarmingly quiet, not unlike the Smiths album that shares its title. Buried or deflected emotion -- conveyed through mordant remarks, pregnant glances, long stretches of silence -- can generate more impact than explosive drama.
New York Times
Rating: 3.5/5 --
It's an interesting film, though a very insular one, as a family tries to bring a traveller home.

Caution Spoilers
Rating: 3/5 --
Trier allows memory and memoir to waft together like curls of smoke, and while it's all quite beautifully constructed and well-acted, it also wallows in the same wishy-washy style and casual exploitation as Oslo August 31st.

Rating: 3.5/5 --
"Louder Than Bombs" is a very intimate affair. The plot is as simple as they come, but it's how the perspectives and scenes shift from character to character and points in time that give strength to this film.

Movies with Mae
Given a flashback, a dream sequence or a voiceover reading in which he can go impressionistic, Trier hits paydirt...
Rolling Stone
Louder than Bombs is not a trivial picture. Its intentions are serious and respectable, but on some level these intentions become a burden, and the result, while admirable, never builds up into a complete cinematic experience.

Haaretz
Trier’s film is at its best when it’s graceful and simple. Working with regular cinematographer Jakob Ihre, he’s very interested in the humanity of his characters...

Product Description:
Middle-aged widower Gene (Gabriel Byrne) and his sons Jonah (Jesse Eisenberg) and Conrad (Devin Druid) deal with new revelations about the death of their wife and mother. Isabelle (Isabelle Huppert) was a famed war photojournalist who died in a car accident while back from assignment, and a New York Times retrospective sheds new light on her life. Meanwhile, Conrad struggles to connect with his overbearing father, and seemingly successful Jonah feels unfulfilled in his work. Joachim Trier directed this family drama, which co-stars Amy Ryan and David Strathairn.
