"When I saw this movie, the first thing I noticed was how great the music was. And I'm not talking the various artists bit...I mean the original score. I'm SO glad they decided to release this. Too often, you can only find half of the soundtrack. I'd have to say this is one of Powell's best works, probably even better than the Bourne scores. This music is awesome, most of it being either Spanish or tango. Not only does it fit the movie perfectly, it's a great listen by itself. The themes are catchy, the guitar solos are sweet! There are 19 cuts on it, and it's almost 45 minutes long. This is an awesome CD! Get it if you love great soundtracks."

"When this CD came out, I ordered it immediately, without watching the movie first. Since I live in Holland and the movie wasn't out here yet. I'm a huge fan of John Powell's scores and I'm glad (again) I bought this score.



The score sounds a little bit like 'The Italian Job' with a spanish flavour to it, because of the percussion and the accoustic guitars. Although the tracks are new and refreshing, I found out that small pieces of music in the film are not on the cd. Like: the 'house fight' part with al the percussion instruments. It's on the cd ('Kiss and Make Up - I believe), and it's a brilliant piece of percussion, but it's not the same as in the movie (that sounded better to me).



Second: the cd is a little on the short side. The total play length of the soundtrack is only 44 minutes. A lot of tracks (19) all relatively short, but... different. So you'll get a lot of different tracks swinged at your ears without to much repeating melody's. Something to get used to after listening to the more monotone Bourne Identity soundtrack.



Nevertheless a brilliant soundtrack, a must have for the John Powell score fans!
