Crazy/Beautiful

Boy from East L.A. meets girl from the "right" side of the tracks. Unfortunately, their relationship is threatened by mediocre music... er, societal pressures. For every worthy, evocative track that the Kirsten Dunst-starring Crazy/Beautiful's CD companion offers, two seem like recordings that a studio suit decided "the kids will relate to": Emiliana Torrini's Björk-lite "To Be Free," the Getaway People's Beck-lite "She Gave Me Love," and Osker's Blink-182-lite "Alright" might work in theaters, but here they just make the listener hope that the movie itself is better written than these leftovers. Save for the Dandy Warhols' "Sleep" (from 2000's masterful Thirteen Tales from Urban Bohemia) and maybe Fastball's "This Is Not My Life," the album hardly makes a good argument for the continuing validity of guitar rock--and was Seven Mary Three's "Wait" commissioned as a Goo Goo Dolls knockoff or a Bon Jovi homage? Latin hip-hop is better served, with excellent Mellow Man Ace and Delinquent Habits concoctions on board, but rock tunes by La Ley and Serralde are hardly as inspiring. --Rickey Wright Amazon.com

Una banda sonora que evoca los recuerdos de jueventud

Magnifica seleccion de canciones. Solo critico que no hayan incluido el tema principal de David Grey: This Years Love. Por eso le di 4 estrellas. May 27, 2008

Horrible CD

I tried looking for Remy Zero's Shattered everywhere and this was the only CD I could find, and it's the only good song on the whole CD. That's why I love I tunes, I buy just what I want. iTunes did not carry this most popular song of his, amazing. December 29, 2007

Shattered by Remy Zero-from you one look just one look

I have been looking for this song from Suicide Kings since I saw the movie when it first came out and was never able to find it online. I gave it another shot and tracked it down.
Shattered by Remy Zero from the movie Suicide Kings with Christopher Walken.
Kirsten Dunst is annoying. December 15, 2007

Excellent! Evokes memories of the film, and stands on its own too.

Excellent soundtrack. Not only does it successfully evoke memories from the film...but also contains enough strong material to stand as an enjoyable album in its own right. December 14, 2007

Way to tired to Title!

...But I really like this movie, funny as I'm not really a fun of Dunst but I enjoyed this performance muchly, I wished she'd do more indie stuff like this. I also enjoyed the soundtrack, although I thought Daivd Gray's 'This Years Love' was a bit too predictable, I guess it was the song of the moment back then but I didn't think if suited the mood of the film, or the rest of the ST as these are very much, at least seemed to me to be, lesser known & underground artists. But then maybe that's a mute point as now I see it's omitted from the CD which is good I think. Oh, and Deanna, the song ur after is Collective Soul & 'Blender' I think. Funny I was watching the film at the exact mo I read ur review, during that scene/song, freaky! And so I thought I just gotta reply, I normally don't bother as I'm dog lazy!!! June 11, 2006
