I'm puzzled by people thinking this is a good score. It's an adequate bunch of knock-offs of early rock songs, but almost none of them have anything to do with plot or character. Nor do they function as ironic commentary like the soundtrack of American Graffiti. They basically just stop the action and deliver a very mild dose of entertainment in what is otherwise a downbeat portrait of some really unlikable people. Hard to imagine this one getting much further than it's gotten.
