A Quality Soundtrack
OK, so you've seen the movie, you have the DVD, why buy the soundtrack too? Because many of the songs are so good you don't want to have to watch the whole movie to hear them again, that's why!
I rarely buy soundtracks. They are usually just filled with snippets of songs and a lot of unrewarding crap. But Kill Bill Vol. 2 is different. There are so many interesting and unusual songs featured in the movie that owning the sountrack is a necessary adjunct to the movie for those whose musical tastes are wide-ranging. When I saw the movie, Chingon's Malaguena Salerosa is the song that told me to order the soundtrack.
That song is not the only reason to buy this of course. There is so much more to enjoy. I really like Goodnight Moon, Tu Mira, A Satisfied Mind, About Her, and Urami Bushi as well. And each of those songs is different from one another as day is from night. Of course, there are some great instrumentals too. I've always liked Ennio Morricone's work, but my favorite here is Luis Bacalov's Summertime Killer. And let's not forget the unlisted rap song that closes out the CD. I never cared for rap, but that one is at least palatable, even enjoyable!
A few dialogues unnecessarily littered about knock a star off this. If you liked the film and you like the music, there is no good reason not to own the CD. Add the Kill Bill Vol II soundtrack to your CD collection soon!

Mediocre at best......
Well, I listened to this album twice, so I wouldnt feel biased while writing this review. Yes, Quentin Tarantino is a genius at movie soundtracks--but this aint one of them. Maybe because the movie isnt out yet and I have no idea how each track is woven into the scene or because Vol.1's track listing is much more likable. This album just doesnt excite me, like Vol. 1 does. If I never heard Vol. 1 and only Vol. 2, I probably still wouldnt have liked this. However, some great standout tracks here are "Il Tramonto", "Can't Hardly Stand It", "The Chase" and "Urami Bushi"--this track is rolling during credits of Vol. 1 I believe, and it didnt make the cut for that. But overall this effort is not as fluid as Vol. 1's diversity and that's how the cookie crumbles.
