Nothing like an incomplete playlist for a movie soundtrack BioBatman | Boston, MA | 05/21/2008 (2 out of 5 stars) "You saw the movie with your friends, you saw it again on your own, you kept humming the catchy tunes Guy Ritchie used to create that special ambience for it all week. You think, "Hey -- this CD would be great for a long car ride, like to the cape." So you hop on amazon.com and -- click, click, click -- it's on its way. The CD arrives just in time for your Patriot Day weekend romp. You tear open the packaging and slide the much-anticipated soundtrack into your car's player while you roll down all the windows and open the sunroof. And bam -- there's that opening track you've been waiting to hear. You think, "This is going to be great," as you motor on down the street. Then, "I got to hear that song they played during that one scene . . .." You press the forward track button a few times. "No. No. Nope. Not it. Must be next. Next. Next." Nothing. Then the first song starts again. Your stomach folds and perspiration breaks out on your upper lip. "It can't be," you think, ejecting the CD. You examine it's playlist, swerving to avoid hitting a squirrel but almost hitting a car in the oncoming traffic instead. "What the *&#$!," you think -- THE SONG YOU LOVE ISN'T EVEN ON THE CD! Don't expect to find the Castaways' "Liar, Liar," played during the crucial scene in the movie where Eddie (Nick Moran), son of pub proprietor, JD (Sting), loses all the money he and his friends put up to get into Hatchet Harry's high-stakes poker game. Sure -- I could have looked at the playlist before I purchased the CD; you'll say, "that's why it's there." But would you really expect to have to do that to check for the song that's essentially the musical linchpin of the entire movie?! Well, would you? No, you wouldn't. And neither did I. And those "bonus" tracks of clips of dialogue -- is that supposed to make up for not having the most important song of the movie on the CD? THEY'RE NOT EVEN THE FUNNIEST LINES OF THE MOVIE! Thank heavens for iTunes."
