I was not at all familiar with this show before I got this CD, but it's great! Perfect soundtrack for a perfect movie (although those two pop/rap songs at the end are truly awful). I don't really understand the 3-star rating. I wonder if that is just including Elfman's score, but certainly film score-only fans should be tolerant and enjoy this soundtrack. I know I did tremendously. This is a very strong 4-star score, even for people who don't normally enjoy jazz.
