Pros: Proof that even the best can get better! Cons: The addition of songs by other artists at the end of the album.
Before I start, I am going to admit that I am an Aimee Mann junkie. Since the first moment she stood up and yelled "He said, SHUT UP, he said, SHUT UP" on MTV, I have been an avid, if not rabid, fan. As I sit here looking at my stack of every CD she...
Pros: everything Cons: "Dreams" -- I mean, come ON...
From the moment I put this CD in my player, I knew it wouldn't be coming out for a long time. This is an amazing album from an amazing movie... what more do I need? Aimee Mann is an amazingly talented artist, and I totally understand why director Paul...
Pros: Great Lyrics, Gives A Better Understanding of the Movie Cons: Tracks at the end are forgettable
Okay this CD has a really interesting story behind it. There is a song on this CD "Deathly" which contains the line "Now that I've met you would you object to never seeing me again" That single line was the inspiration for the original movie Magnolia....
Pros: Aimee Mann in an amazing album Cons: Supertramp? What the????
Or even if you don't. I like some Sheryl Crow, but Sarah McLachlan puts me right to sleep. Nice voice, but I'm not a fan of her songs. Aimee Mann, on the Magnolia Soundtrack, has made a nice combination of fast and slower paced songs that I find...
Pros: incredible music, crucial to the film Cons: none
One of my earliest reviews was of the movie "Magnolia." I spent the majority of the review raving about the soundtrack, so I figure that it is about time that I put the review of the soundtrack into the correct category.
Pros: Good overview of Mann in the nineties Cons: Only nine Aimee Mann songs? Not enough!
The Aimee Mann songs included on the soundtrack of "Magnolia" are a perfect fit for Paul Thomas Anderson's fascinating film about a group of people struggling to find peace and belonging in life. In the last decade, Mann has been trying to find...
Pros: Beautiful, moving material. Captures the movie perfectly. Cons: Gabrielle's "Dreams." Omission of some film score.
I saw Magnolia with the full knowledge that Paul Thomas Anderson had based it around the songs of Aimee Mann. Now, I'm not a huge fan of Aimee Mann's type of music. I've never been a folk rock guy, but I've always had a respect for Mann. Unlike other...
Magnolia was a good movie made great thanks in part to an outstanding soundtrack that I consider the best of 1999. Aimee Mann did all the songs for the soundtrack, very reminiscent of how Simon and Garfunkel did all of the songs for a certain best...
Pros: Likeable and enjoyable all the way through Cons: addition of Supertramp songs seems to interrupt the mood
Aimee Mann's songs accurately reflect the moody and feeling of the phenomenal film, yet they also stand successfully on their own. Unlike most film soundtracks, this collection of songs by Mann (with a couple of Supertramp songs and Gabrielle's DREAMS)...
Pros: Everything Cons: maybe too emotional that it might seem corny
I knew I had to have this soundtrack from moment I heard "Wise Up" in the movie and at the end of the movie "Save Me". I never heard of Aimee Mann until this soundtrack game out, but I must say, she is very talented with her soft...
Pros: Extremely creative, original songs by Aimee Mann, in addition to a very cool cover of "One" Cons: A lack of depth towards the end of the album, especially in Gabrielle's "Dreams"
A great soundtrack is an album that is full of enjoyable songs that drive or compliment the film it accompanies. Many soundtracks have enjoyable songs, but they contribute little to the film (i.e. "Godzilla"). Every so often though, a...
Pros: A nice mix of Aimee Mann's songs and classics. Cons: Short, Thematically Homogenous and Depressing
"Magnolia" remains, to date, my second favorite movie of all time (right behind "Brazil"). In effect, "Magnolia" acts as an opera, with various storylines paralleling each other through loss, forgiveness, and love. In the movie, the soundtrack is ...
The powerful and provocative new film from Boogie Nights writer/director Paul Thomas Anderson is Magnolia, a drama starring William H. Macy, Julianne ...More at Buy.com Marketplaces
