Editorial Reviews

Women who remember Lloyd Dobler as the perfect sensitive, new age guy are starting to reach "a certain age," and it may take a woman of certain age--or at least one with a somewhat old school taste in music--to appreciate the Must Love Dogs soundtrack. Let's face it, when you kick a compilation off with Linda Ronstadt, and Christopher Plummer reading poetry, you're not taking dead aim at the youth market. "Hey There Lonely Girl?" "The First Cut Is the Deepest?" Sounds like someone was just at their attorney's office and found out their husband is getting the house.

That said, who hasn't found themselves in a "The First Cut Is the Deepest" kind of mood at one time or another? Yes, Natalie Cole's "This Will Be (An Everlasting Love)" is well-trod ground (the song could be called "This Will Be a Regular Fixture on Movie Soundtracks") but isn't this just the kind of recklessly upbeat feeling we go to the movies for? And Must Love Dogs does go on to feature some more contemporary acts including Rilo Kiley and Susie Suh. This CD is just another one of life's simpler pleasures, like romantic comedies...and dogs. --Leah Weathersby

4 out of 5 stars Soundtrack.......2006-03-03

I really have enjoyed ths CD. I've been getting a few soundtracks lately and this one is among my favorites.

5 out of 5 stars Worthwhile Soundtrack!.......2006-02-25

Typically I don't buy movie soundtracks or compilation albums as they leave a great deal to be desired. However, this soundtrack provides you with a combination of old and new music and successfully blends them together for your listening pleasure. I would recommend it highly for anyone who enjoyed the movie.

5 out of 5 stars will love must love dogs.......2006-02-01

fabulous script writing -- lots of subtext and unspoken text that the viewer gets to fill in, and makes us more a part of the film.

great acting, great story -- thanks to the novel version -- and a warm, endearing boost of cheer to get any singleton back in the dating game.

theme of a broken heart grows back bigger is like a big hug.

and excellent use of lighting and camera motion/work. not pronounced, but very very very effective.

songs will make any female viewer smile -- yup, this is how it is.

bravo and brava to everyone involved.

only thing missing was more dog time.

2 out of 5 stars review from Synthesis.......2005-11-03

So apparently for this flick you must not only love dogs, but bad soundtracks as well. I don't know what's going on here, but I don't like it. The CD is comprised of a mix of country songs and overused classics that need to be left alone. There's a decent song or two from artists like Ryan Adams, but a song or two can't always save an entire album. The final straw of my annoyance with this CD would have to be the last track, straight from the movie I'd imagine, where the actors get together and sing "Come On Get Happy." Maybe this is supposed to be funny.....I'm not laughing. Maybe the whole album is suppose to be funny, but to me it seems like one big, corny, Hollywood joke.

Bluenote, I believe the song you're looking for is I Can Make A Mess Like Nobody's Business - The Best Happiness Money Can Buy.
