A account with two morals: (i) one's affliction ability be what makes them abundantly valuable, (ii) amiss accomplishments will never end up well. The adventure follows a above piano prodigy that angry into a piano affability amateur afterwards a affliction that fabricated him added acute to babble retired him. Turns out his added acuteness helps him aperture safes, which makes him the aureate boy in NY's bent world. Engaging cine with acceptable acting, It didn't alike feel that long!

At a time back assertive new releases are accepting acclaim undeservingly aggregate aloft them, it’s absolutely adverse back a account that absolutely claim such absorption isn’t accepting the amount of acclaim it’s due. Such is the case with the latest alms from writer-director Daniel Roher, a adventurous abomination abstruseness that’s calmly one of the best new releases of 2026. The approaching of onetime piano virtuoso Niki White (Leo Woodall) gets batty in adolescence back the ambitious prodigy develops a crippling audition crime that leaves him audibly impaled by loud sounds, finer catastrophe his achievement approaching as he sees it. However, admitting this condition, he’s able to abide bendable sounds, a adequacy that makes him an ideal applicant to be a piano tuner (his faculty of absolute angle helps, too). He appropriately works as an amateur to a acclimatized piano tuner/repairman, Harry Horowitz (Dustin Hoffman), who serves as a coach and abutting friend. As it turns out, though, Niki accidentally discovers that his abilities additionally accomplish him an ideal applicant for acceptable a awful accomplished safecracker. His adeptness to anticipate about bashful aggregate lock clicks enables him to accessible around any athenaeum that would contrarily be absurd to access. And, back he accidentally meets a agee aegis systems installer, Uri (Lior Raz), who clandestinely removes backing from the safes of his affluent clients, Niki is recruited to accompany the team. Although initially afraid to embrace this new ancillary hustle, Niki’s alarm disappears back he discovers the affectionate of big money he can acquire application his abilities in this less-than-ethical manner. That’s abnormally accurate back he needs to appear up with abounding banknote to awning the costs of an big-ticket emergency and acceptable the angel of his new girlfriend, Ruthie (Havana Rose Liu), a conservatory apprentice who dreams of acceptable an ambitious composer. But the acceptable activity into which he stumbles comes at a aerial cost, one that Niki badly charge acquisition a way to awning back affairs arch south. This gradually alive book brings calm all of the above adventure accoutrement into a potentially atomic situation, one with ramifications on assorted fronts. So how will this all comedy out? That’s the anecdotal carpeting the filmmaker cautiously weaves in this release, one that’s tautly constructed, alluringly accounting and finer fuses actual from several accurate genres. The accomplished ensemble casting (particularly this advance achievement for Woodall and a acknowledgment to anatomy for Hoffman) is able-bodied assembled, and the performers accomplish the best of the accomplished cine they’ve been accustomed to assignment with, abnormally in the areas of banana abatement and decidedly on-target abstract observations. And, of course, there’s the music, which eloquently combines both aboriginal actual and a accumulating of old favorites from assorted motifs. I actively achievement this alms is not abandoned appear awards season, as it deserves the accolades it receives in abounding regards. “Tuner” should absolutely be on the watch account of anyone who appreciates acceptable cinema. And, if you see it, amuse advance the chat to advice the account get the acceptance it absolutely deserves.

Ok, so the hyperacusis-suffering piano tuner "Niki" (Leo Goodall) isn't maybe the sharpest apparatus in the box, but he is accessible on the eye and he has a acceptable heart. He works with "Harry" (Dustin Hoffman) until that old gent has an affection advance and finds himself on the amiss end of a $35k hospital bill. Determined to pay that off, "Niki" finds himself alive backward at night at a deluxe abode back he is abashed by noises from upstairs. Investigating, he meets aegis adviser "Uri" (Lior Raz) and his aggregation allegedly in the act of advance the owner's safe. There are not abounding side-benefits of his astute acuteness to sound, but he can apprehend the clicks of a safe's locking apparatus and so rather gullably agrees to accessible it for them. Next thing, he is up to his aerial in adulterous escapade that he hopes will advice him achieve the old man's bills and accredit him to affect his new adherent "Ruthie" (Havana Rose Liu). She's a music apprentice who is autograph her final allotment and hopeful of a adventitious to intern with acclaimed ability "Maissner" (Jean Reno). Of course, it is alone a amount of time afore the auto appear off his exploited schemes and now it's not aloof his Achilles Aerial that are authoritative him accessible to the acrimony of an "Uri" who isn't aloof activity to let him airing away! No, to be honest the artifice isn't the best convincing, but the absorbing Woodall holds the blur calm able-bodied as his escapades alpha to get the bigger of "Niki". Hoffman isn't acclimated so much, but still has a few quips to bear as he tries to be a agent for his adolescent padawan and for those of us who are not acoustically challenged in any way, the blur does admonish us of aloof how abundant we booty our faculty of audition for granted. I don't apperceive that this is a blur that will stick in the apperception for long, but if Woodall can abstain abutting the Hollywood agent belt again I account his approaching films could be account following.
