Free Music Notes for Tropic ThunderFree Music Review: Rockin' Tunes! Hit: 4 Stars
This album is a great suppliment to a very funny movie. If you like classic rock, this album rocks with some great tunes that really give a feel for the times in which these movies were depicted. There are some missing songs from the movie which I think was on purpose since they don't seem to fit the style of the album. There seems to be a concept in place here and not just a bunch of songs thrown together.
Free Music Review: Good, But Not the Whole Soundtrack--3 1/2 stars Hit: 3 Stars
As of this writing, TROPIC THUNDER is the funniest movie to be released in 2008. In addition to the key casting of the main characters and the genius of Ben Stiller (who co-starred, co-wrote, directed, and co-produced the film), TROPIC THUNDER has a great soundtrack that adds to the humor of the film. From using songs that have been used in war movies before, e.g. "Ball of Confusion (That's What the World Is Today)" to Alpa Chino's (Brandon T. Jackson) #1 hit song "I Love That P***Y", the music in TROPIC THUNDER perfectly captures the mood of the film. Unfortunately, not quite all of the songs from the movie have actually made it onto the soundtrack. The most glaring exceptions are the songs that Les Grossman (Tom Cruise) dances to: "Get Back" by Ludacris (the song during the end credits) and "Low" by Flo-Rida. There are songs that aren't even heard in the song, except in passing, that are on here, e.g. "Movin' On Up" (Jefferson's Theme) by Janet Dubois. Overall, the music on the soundtrack is a nice mix, but it's not really the full motion picture soundtrack. I was also disappointed that there aren't a few dialogue scenes from the movie that were included. TROPIC THUNDER is a hilarious movie with all kinds of funny lines, but except for the #1 track on the album, "The Name of the Game (The Crystal Method's Big A** T.T. Mix)" that has some dialogue under the music, there is no dialogue from the movie included. Fans of the movie might enjoy the soundtrack, but it has a larger appeal for those who have never seen the movie.
Free Music Review: Weak Movie- Good Soundtrack Hit: 3 Stars
The movie was nothing to get excited about. Just an occasional laugh here and there. Save your money and rent the dvd.
The music, however, was good.
Free Music Review: Not the Original Version Hit: 3 Stars
I thought this might be the version from the movie with all the songs, but it was not. It is still a nice CD.
Free Music Review: Where are the big hits ? Hit: 1 Stars
As written in the amazon product description : "Featuring new exclusive re-recordings and remixes of classic and iconic 60s pop hits from the likes of The Rolling Stones, Buffalo Springfield, ..."
But where is Sympathy for the Devil ?
Where is For What It's Worth ?
I don't know, I just know that this is another uncomplete soundtrack with no dialogues at all.
