The Brothers (2012)

EW's GRADE
B

Details Lead Performance: Various Artists; Genre: Soundtracks

In an age when anyone can master the art of musical compilation (just ask any Napster user), the bar for hot soundtracks is pretty high. Each cut had better achieve a melodic interdependency and serve up a sonic meal that surpasses anything listeners could prepare themselves. From the rollicking choruses of Eric Benet's ''Love Don't Love Me'' to the dub-infused, dance hall-ish ''Josephine'' by newcomer DL, this album -- like the film -- is a fun ride.
