Donna Thomas
6/10

On the other hand, while the soundtrack effectively complements the film's tone and themes, it lacks standout tracks that leave a lasting impression. The music serves its purpose but doesn't necessarily stand out on its own. It would have been nice to see more memorable songs that listeners could connect with outside of the movie context.
