The Chemical Brothers Score Hanna


So we went to see Hanna at the Sundance Kabuki on Friday, and other than a woman sitting next to me who sighed with empathy/admiration/sadness/humor every 30 seconds and said "Oh Jeez" any time anything happened at all, it was a pretty enjoyable experience. The movie was solid, not life changing, but solid, and I was particularly pleased to discover the soundtrack is totally awesome. I kept Shazaming it throughout the movie and quickly realized all the songs were done by The Chemical Brothers. Hats off to those guys, they're really enjoying a second coming. I was super into them in the 90's and really thought they were dunzo after that, but starting with a post I did almost a year ago it's come to my attention that these guys can still put together some killer tracks. They should definitely do more movies. Well done, boys.
