The use of repetitive melodies in the film's soundtrack became distracting and monotonous, failing to provide any meaningful impact on the overall viewing experience. The lack of diversity in the musical themes made it difficult to differentiate between key moments in the plot, resulting in a missed opportunity to elevate the film's emotional impact.
