The music is embarrassing


Most of the music sounds like it was done by a 12 year old kid banging on a cheesy synthesizer. It ruins the movie.

You may be right, but given the time period it was made, maybe they wanted to save money and make it as simplistic as possible. I'm watching this movie right now as I type. I can see that this movie has taken from "Straw Dogs," "Marathon Man."

The film hasn't aged well and the music is one of the reasons why. Another would be the Dutch angle shots.

It had inappropriate moments and weak spots but overall I thought it was ok. It sure is better than the score for The ODESSA File (another Nazi conspiracy thriller) done by Andrew Lloyd Webster.

The score is done by someone with a single name. Stanislas!
And, don't dog on the Dutch Angles, that's what J Franks brings to the table.

What was Frankenheimer thinking by hiring this one-name person? Yeah, the "score" is amateurish, to put it mildly.
