| | Cruel Intentions Soundtrack CD (19 Customer Reviews)
If there's a complaint about the soundtrack to Cruel Intentions, the trashy teen adaptation of Les Liaisons Dangerous, it's that the music isn't as shamelessly enjoyable as the film. As a matter of fact, much of this takes itself too seriously, from Placebo's opening cut, "Every You, Every Me," to Counting Crows' "Colorblind," neither of which really fit the feeling of the movie. That said, there's enough strong moments -- particularly Fatboy Slim's "Praise You," Aimee Mann's "You Could Make a Killing," Blur's "Coffee and TV," and the Verve's instant-classic "Bittersweet Symphony" -- to make it listenable, even with the preponderance of half-baked tunes and throwaways that clutter the record, just like any other major-label soundtrack. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine

Cruel Intentions Soundtrack Music Review Average Rating: (4.8 out of 5 stars)   List All Reviews Awesome
I would just like to say that the Cruel Intentions soundtrack is awesome! Bitter Sweet Symphony is an awesome song that fits well with the end of the movie! I purchased this soundtrack and I am totally pleased with it. Anyone who buys this will enjoy it to the fullest!

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No Possibly one of the finest compilations ever
Simply put, this is the perfect compliment to what is in my oppinion an excellent film. At first look this cd offers a good couple of chart toppers, namely 'Bittersweet Symphony' and 'Every You and Every Me', yet it is the inspiring mix of genres, from the techno Faithless to Ballady Counting Crows that brings this Cd out as the sheer brilliance that it is.
Try it, you wont be disappointed, if its for meals or driving, jogging or chilling, this Cd craftily can create the mood for all events. If you only own one compilation, make sure its THIS compilation!

These songs are off the hook. My favorite is "Bitter Sweet Symphony." If you didn't hear this cd you better go and get you one, because if you don't you won't know what you are missing.
