rating: 2 QuoteGreat Movie, Lame CDQuote
The movie has a lot of great old songs that I remember my parents enjoying. But the CD doesn't capture them. And I don't like the ones that are on it. I bought is specifically for Nat King Cole's "I Remember You." Buy the movie DVD instead and enjoy the songs on it. April 3, 2008

rating: 3 QuoteEnyojable SoundtrackQuote
I bought the CD because I found it on a discount price and I guessed (rightly) that Nat King Cole sings with Stan Kenton orchestra on "Orange Colored Sky"...
Most of the album is taken by OK swing music by contemporary orchestra but there's also some dull Mark Isham orchestration, a bad Nat King Cole number with strings and, strangley enough, a Chet Baker track...

All in all, mostly for background mood uplifting... March 10, 2008

rating: 4 QuoteMostly MajesticQuote
Most of the tracks were excellent but some were a bit long winded.Tracks by Spencer Wyatt best on the disc and made it all worth while. May 17, 2007

rating: 5 QuoteAn excellent olio of music stylesQuote
Do you like ethereal New Age? Gotcha covered. Does Boogie piano get your toes a-tappin'? Check. Is Swing more your thing? It's here. All fine reasons to add this sound track to your music collection. As for the movie, I like to think it Carrey's best work. The man has the most expressive face in Moviedom. Regarding the story, it's set in the early Fifties during the rabid Communist scaremongering headed by Senator Joseph McCarthy. One result was the blacklisting of suspected Communists and sympathizers in liberal Hollywood, of which our protagonist Peter Appleton became a victim. February 23, 2007

rating: 5 QuoteThis movie is a slam dunkQuote
To hear the roar of the crowd as the player goes in to slam dunk the basketball in the professional sports arenas,this film equals those thrills for the audience as Jim Carrey (Luke Trimble)takes us through the mind of someone that has amnesia and unwittingly becomes the hometown war hero set in 1945 period. Stars abound in this film like character actors Martin Landau and James Wittemore.Boy meets girl,they fall in love,then a twist in the plot as Peter Appleton (Jim Carrey) is accused of being a communist,similar to the Army McCarthy hearings for those old enough to remember.It all turns out like everyone wants.....Ed Lynch 10/29/06 October 29, 2006
