Probably they should reedit it with Rammstein.

Thank goodness! I came here to check out the soundtrack, to see if anyone else was as irritated by it as I am as I watch it, even from the opening scene.
I do like Brubek, but his music seems completely wrong for this movie's atmosphere. Even if he wrote original music, it seems a mismatch.
I'm going to try very hard to stick with the film, but I even noted the misplaced music in my film journal. It almost made me change channels! Only the cast is keeping me watching.
I agree that the original composer MUST have provided a better score. I've never been disappointed by him, so it's difficult to imagine them choosing Brubek instead.

Apparently the first score was written by Pino Donaggio and rejected. I find it inconceivable that Donaggio didn't write a more appropriate score but then maybe by the time the full horror of the replacement became apparent it was too late to go back.

I completely agree that the score is entirely inappropriate. Jazz has worked well for many soundtracks but the cueing seems entirely random, the mixing horrendous and the style is just horribly wrong and too busy. The music fights the atmosphere and the dialogue. It is so intrusive that it makes the film virtually unwatchable.

Hear hear!
I appreciate a lot of jazz music myself but here it just drowned out the movie, and totally ruined the mood in several scenes. I almost wanted to see those responsible for it dead by the time this movie was over! Ok, so if you want Jazz-type music for a film, fine, but at least compose something that FITS the scenes! The film wasn't that bad and I really think the soundtrack did a LOT to destroy it.

I completely agree. The repetitive and redundant and obnoxious music totally ruined this movie for me. One hour into the film and I gave up.
