Worst soundtrack ever

"this is by far the worst soundtrack i have ever heard. DO NOT BUY IT! i saw the movie and there were so many good songs in the movie. i thought that the soundtrack was going to be amazing. first of all, there are only two real songs on the entire cd. the other 23 or so tracks are about 1-2 minute musical background pieces that corespond to the different scenes in the movie. and about half of them sound the same. its a cd of background music. trust me. don't buy it."
A big let down. . .

"I went out and bought this CD today. The music is good and some of the best cutting edge hip hop, but it ends WAY too soon. The majority of the songs on here (if you can call them songs) are less then a minute long. Some are even a whole 17 sec long. This wouldn't be bad, but the music pauses in between each song, so it is disgustily obvious that the song is short. I think this would be a great CD if the songs were longer. You get into a song and then it just stops, then an new one starts, with the same bass cord as the last. A non-stop mix and this would be a great CD. Worth copying off the internet, not worth buying."
Some decent hip-hop, but not what I was looking for...

"I, too, expected to hear some of the great tunes from the movie, and was disappointed to find them conspicuously absent from the soundtrack. While the first twenty-four tracks are not entirely unenjoyable, those tracks are short, usually no more than a minute in length. Additionally, the two complete songs tacked on to the end are hardly the best tracks from the movie, and don't add much value. Couple this with the fact that the entire soundtrack is only 35 minutes long and it is clear that I did not get my money's worth with this one."
