Editorial Reviews

Multitalented media queen Mandy Moore learns exactly how to deal with the messy maze of relationships and falling in love in her latest cinematic vehicle--meaning, appropriately, that Deal's tunes largely have the type of fuzzy, love-obsessed glow which envelops any knee-weakening crush. Liz Phair's syrupy-sweet pop nugget "Why Can't I?" serves as a digital heartbeat to John Mayer's acoustic earnestness and two low-key splashes of orchestral moodiness from Beth Orton, including a husky cover of Cat Stevens' "Wild World." Symphonic quirkiness from the Flaming Lips and the Music's dance-boogie firestorm add some spice, but, surprisingly, lesser-known artists steal the show away from these veterans. Canadian Skye Sweetnam sounds like Letters to Cleo's kid sister on her irresistible, rainbow-rocking debut single "Billy S.," and Marjorie Fair's "Waves" is picturesque, Brit-pop-dreamy rock. Despite generic cuts from singer-songwriter Aslyn and the jazzy electro act Echo, the album's tunes smartly cover all aspects of romance, from the initial pining away to the giddiness of a first kiss. In other words, How to Deal is the real deal. --Annie Zaleski

Missing a few songs I think.......2004-07-10

Can somebody tell me whats the name and artist of the song played in the scene where halley is getting out of the new years party in her friend's house and leaving with macon. It starts off saying leaving leaving yea no one likes to leave. Can anyone email me if they know it.

I LOVE IT!.......2004-06-08

I wantted this CD for only two songs, Liz Phair's song "Why Can't I" and Skye Sweetnam's song "Billy S." But I ended up liking every single song on this CD!

Not Mainstream.... Awesome.......2004-02-15

This is a teenage movie with Mandy Moore starring, so clearly when I saw it I thought it would be full of pop music. I was so wonderfully deceived. I'm a 16 year old myself, but having artits such as The Flaming Lips and The Donnas, both of which amazing bands without enough recognition, and unknown songs by mainstream artists such as John Mayer. I love Cat Stevens, so i was bucoup impressed with that. The most delightful suprise of all was the Beth Orton song. I've been a fan for many years, but no one my age knows her. All-in-all it is a great soundtrack for a phenomonal movie. I could do without the Liz Phair song, but who couldn't. I was taken aback by the music choices, and it was a thrill. I'm so greatful that people my age may finally realize what good music is all about.

Last Song On trailer.......2004-01-14

I dont know if this drove anyone else crazy, but, the song at the end of the trailer for the movie is "Here is Gone" by the Goo Goo Dolls

Best soundtrack in a long time..........2003-08-21

I had been waiting forever for the price of the soundtrack to go down but then I decided it would be a while and I finally bought it. But I sure got my money's worth. All of the songs fit perfectly with the movie. "Do You Realize??" by the Flaming Lips is the light guitar ballad that works well since it was in the funeral scene. "Billy S." by Skye Sweetnam is a fun pop (almost punk) sounding song that makes you remember the happy times in the movie. "Why Can't I", "Not Myself", and both versions of "wild World" work great because they were in key scenes in the movie. But really what stands out on the disc is "That's When I love You" by Aslyn which is a great song to describe the whole movie. Overall it's worth your money.

If the idea behind director John Beck's nautical frightfest isn't exactly new--long-lost ship is mysteriously found floating at sea--the filmmaker invests it with a smart sense of style and tension that lifts it above its horror-exploitation roots. The brooding orchestral score from composer John Frizzell (13 Ghosts, Beautiful, Alien Resurrection) conjures up the appropriate atmosphere of foreboding and unease, while largely steering clear of the genre's inherent cheese quotient. Indeed, the composer invokes an often surprising sense of emotional strain and weariness, injecting some welcome human dimensions amid the expected shrieking strings and rumbling brass and percussion. While certain genre clichés are paid heed, Frizzell's efforts here often as not eschew orchestral thunder for more subtle, intimate music that lifts the film from mere floating haunted-house gambit into something more emotionally gripping. --Jerry McCulley

Katie.......2007-04-11

I love the music from this movie. I really love this movie because of the little girl. Katie is very sweet. You would love to have a friend like her. Katie will be there for you. Katie will take care of you.

SWeet movie.......2006-04-09

also THE MUDVANYE SONG RULES!!!!!!!!!!!!!! "NOT FALLING" I'M PLAYING IT RIGHT NOW, I KNEW THIS BAND SOUNDED FAMILIAR. THEY ROCK BABY. :)

My Little Box Rocks.......2005-02-13

The great song from the "flashback scene" in the movie, is track 23, My Little Box. Simply a must-have song. Dark and dry, the lyrics accompany the hollow and spooky beat. "I live safe inside my cell, in the darkness that surrounds me, I see my own special hell. Compliment my suffering, feeling warm inside this pain, four walls comin' down on me, are coming down again."

suburbanwolf got it right!.......2004-12-30

"My Little Box" is not sung by Trent Reznor.......2004-06-10

"My Little Box" is sung by Gabriel Mann, not Trent Reznor like someone suggested.
