Susan White
5/10

On the other hand, while the soundtrack is undeniably well-crafted and evocative, at times it felt a bit overpowering and melodramatic, overshadowing some of the quieter, more intimate moments of the film. The music, although powerful, occasionally took away from the subtlety and nuance of the performances, making it feel slightly manipulative in its emotional cues.
