I'm looking into getting a film camera(canon ae-1) ... but the only problem I have with film pictures is sometimes I don'tn like them when there's so much noise on it... I took a sample film picture and edited in photoshop... all I did was reduce the noise ... but is there another and more effective method to reduce the noise ?
well it depends on what speed film you are using. the higher the speed, the more grain it will have. try shooting with 100 or 200 film, and you will probably get less grain.

(probably $4ish a roll)
You shouldn't try to reduce noise on film, as the grain is not like digital noise, it looks good unlike digital. Trying to get rid of film grain will just make it look worse.

Also stop making so many threads for these things, just ask in off-topic discussion.

does it work with any film camera ?

That particular one will work with any 35mm camera, but it does come in 120/Medium Format if you're using something like a Holga.
I think film grain looks really nice, has a certain charm to it
not too much grain though
Grain doesn't look bad. Maybe you are using consumer grade film and getting excesive amounts of grain even for ASA 100 or 200, so maybe you could just try something nicer like someone else suggested here.
