The soundtrack of The Whistlers showcases the talent and creativity of the composer, effectively enhancing key moments in the film and elevating the overall cinematic experience. The music not only sets the tone for each scene but also adds depth and emotion to the characters' development, making it a memorable aspect of the movie.

On the other hand, while the soundtrack is effective in setting the tone for the film, some tracks feel repetitive and lack the diversity needed to fully engage the audience throughout the entire movie. There are moments where the music becomes background noise rather than a significant part of the storytelling, which can detract from the overall viewing experience. A more varied and experimental approach to the soundtrack could have elevated the film to another level of immersion.

The musical choices in The Whistlers felt disjointed and out of place at times, making it distracting rather than engaging. The lack of coherence in the soundtrack detracted from the immersion in the story and characters, leaving me feeling disconnected from the film's narrative.
