A useful but uneven turn from Charles Barker

Charles Barker's contribution as Utility Sound gives Never Goin' Back (2018) a more specific texture. There is some texture here, but I wanted a little more surprise. The performance has a clear idea behind it, but the execution is not equally strong throughout. I appreciated the intention more than every individual moment. It supports the film well enough, though it rarely changes the temperature of a scene. That overall aftertaste is what stayed with me after the credits.
