Films with unexpectedly good soundtracks?

Just that really!
Does anyone know of any soundtracks from films that are unexpectedly amazing?

We drove quite a distance yesterday to get to our UK holiday destination and listened to...

The Peter Rabbit soundtrack! It's such a great soundtrack, but really unexpected! Such variety of music- and some really good tunes 🎶🎵🎶🎵!

Does anyone have anymore to share?!

Garden state. Amazing

Cruel Intentions. It came out when I was a teenager and I've outgrown the film but still love the music.

MerryGrinchmas1 · 12/08/2020 08:24

Guardians of the galaxy is my ultimate favourite!

Yes yes yes to cruel intentions!!!! I bought this soundtrack in Swansea circa 2000 when I visited for an open day! Haven't listened to it for years but I bet it'll still remind me of driving over the bridge into Wales!

Also loved the soundtrack to Save the Last Dance!

Tron: Legacy - all Daft Punk! It’s great.

NEE1302 · 12/08/2020 08:28

Brokedown Palace (amazing soundtrack)
Snatch (any of Guy Ritchie's films actually)
Cruel Intentions
Trainspotting
and Dirty Dancing Grin

Just to clarify .... a university open day! Not an open day to Swansea town! Blush

YgritteSnow · 12/08/2020 08:31

Just coming to say Twilight and sequels. I still listen to some of the tracks from those soundtracks today. Whoever did the music for those movies totally nailed it.
