There is nothing quite amazing like a great movie that also has a massive soundtrack.
The right song can elevate a scene to the point where you are left with goosebumps and the memory is stamped in your brain forevermore.
Even if you don’t love the movie, a good song from it can leave you feeling that at least you have discovered some awesome new music.
We can perhaps ignore cheesy acting or questionable plot twists, and focus more on the music alone.
