This is a great soundtrack with a quirky mix of contemporary and retro songs. If you've seen the film it's very evocative of key moments within it but you would enjoy it equally having never watched the movie. Key highlight is 'Beyond the Sea' which is a great track! I'd highly recommend as a really interesting addition to your collection.

What a shame that such a disappointing film could have produced such a classic soundtrack! Apart from Cameron Diaz in a slinky balack swimsuit, the film had very little going for it, the soundtrack is just quality virtually throughout. For starters, the first track is from that demi-god of a singer songwriter Beck. That's right Beck! Add in tracks from the Sneaker Pimps, Ash, REM and Faithless and you're off to a cracking start with a mix of music genres that just has to be heard together to believe they would go so well. Add a couple of quirky and fun random tracks from the Squirrel Nut Zippers (INDEED!) and Bobby Darin and you get a soundtrack that is on a par with Baz Luhrman's Romeo and Juliet - just without the awesome forgotten Radiohead track. If you liked that, you'll love this. It's that simple!Read full review
