Stranger Than Fiction, soundtrack by Spoon
Forrest Gump, hands down.
This is an old one, but:
The Mission, scored by Ennio Morricone.
I was just watching Tenet last night and the music kind of took me out of it sometimes because I was like, “Fuck, that music sounds awesome”, though not sure how well it will stand on its own, I’ve not tried that yet.
Lots of good ones here, I'll add some that haven't been mentioned: Sahara, Rango, both Sherlock Holmes movies, Scott Pilgrim vs The World, the JJ Abrams Star Trek's, The Incredibles, Godzilla 2014, The Road to El Dorado
Conan the Barbarian
Resident evil
Dred 2012
Redline
Godzilla 1998
Varsity Blues
The blade runner soundtrack is my go to relax soundtrack. Have listened to it thousands of times by now.
Into The Wild
- Yellow Submarine (I think a lot of people either forget this movie exists, or write it off as a kids movie. You're missing out on a movie that could be considered as revolutionary to animation as the Beatles were to music.)
- Back to the Future
- The Muppet Movie
- School of Rock
- Bladerunner
- The Matrix
There's probably other's, but that's what immediately comes to mind.
Tombstone and Almost Famous for me
I don't know that I could pick one, but Joe Hisashi's Studio Ghibli sound tracks are done of my favourites
interstellar, interstella5555, gladiator
The Fifth Element is probably the only soundtrack I have ever bought. The diva's aria is AMAZING!
Swingers has a great oldies/crooner soundtrack.
Yeah American Psycho does have a good soundtrack. Eyes Without a Face is great.
My vote is for Interstellar or some of the other Hans Zimmer ones
Oh just my thing.
- Summer Wars
- Kikojiros Summer
- Dunkirk
- Inception
- Desert Rose
I have a lot of these on my shortlist. More series and even way more videogames
Easy rider
The Scream 3 soundtrack is one of my favorites and was my introduction to System of a Down.

Pretty in Pink - Pure 80s.
I'm not seeing Oppenheimer mentioned , perhaps I'm in the minority here.
Judgement Night - some of the greatest hip-hop & metal crossover songs ever made.
Atomic Blonde
Bohemian Rhapsody
Batman Forever
The Decline of Western Civilization
- Schindler's List
- Requiem for a Dream

The wackness - iconic 90s hip hop songs
28 days later - introduced me to post rock vibes
Shrek 2, unironically
Also Sucker Punch and Tron Legacy
2001: A Space Odyssey
Just epic classical music.
Spirited Away
Joe Hisaishi fits the fantastical setting perfectly. Lots of bittersweet, exciting, and meditative moods, each placed in the perfect scene.
Tarantino's movies usually have a great song selection.
Full Metal Jacket
Hearing "Bird is the Word" juxtaposed with the Vietnam War is just a crazy choice that paid off.
Nobody (2021)
Turned me on to Luther Allison. Not a "best soundtrack" but it definitely stands out.
