(6,154 posts)The writing, pseudo new age spiritual mumbo jumbo that pervades the whole film is nonsense. However as a visual and aural experience I still quite liked it.

(53,093 posts)and it's a great film. The End by the Doors and Suzy Q are my favorites in that film. Wagner's Ride of the Valkeries is used to great effect.
It's hard to name absolute favorites because if I don't like the movie I don't remember the soundtrack.
Thelma and Louise is another movie I love. Grayson Hugh, I Can't Untie you From Me

WorseBeforeBetter
(11,441 posts)for a long time. Not sure why, other than I guess I thought it would be the type of violence I can't stomach (like that in "Drive" . Or maybe it was thinking I've seen enough Brad Pitt. Glad I finally took the plunge, for this and other Guy Ritchie films. Well, but for "Swept Away," ha.

Oh, crap, that's a dark, violent (but funny as hell) movie, too!
Rob H.
(5,354 posts)the main theme from 1978's Superman: The Movie. I was 10 years old when we saw it in the theater.
Edited to add: I think I even still have the soundtrack album on vinyl packed among my things, along with the soundtrack for Superman II, which had Superman's "S" shield laser etched on it:

(6,154 posts)actually it's one of the only great things about the film IMO. The acting and everything else is what is cheesy

Libertas1776
(2,888 posts)It's a really out there, kitschy, cult followed, comedy horror film starring Bruce Campbell as Elvis Presley, who after switching places with a double for a simpler life, ends up spending the twilight of his days in a run down retirement home. There, he befriends a black man played by Ossie Davis, who claims to actually be President Kennedy. According to "JFK," having survived his assassination attempt in Dallas, LBJ had him patched up by the CIA, his skin dyed black, and sent to that retirement home to keep him quiet. In addition, a re-animated mummy, nicknamed Bubba Ho-Tep by Elvis, is attacking seniors at the home and stealing their souls. It's up to Elvis and JFK to stop it! It really is a good movie though, and it's got a lot of heart. See it if ya get the chance.
Also, I'd also prob throw in the opening theme from Hoosiers

(34,139 posts)I actually love the entire soundtrack of this movie.
My other favorite movie soundtrack is that for the movie "FM" because it is the best of the late 70s rock and roll.
