Reception[edit]

Writing for Digital Spy, Kelechi Ehenulo summarised "Its soundtrack, laced with funk music, creates a mood before changing tune for the sounds of Al B Sure, Diana Ross and Erykah Badu."[4] Elliott Wishnefsky of FandomWire summarised "The soundtrack is a big highlight, featuring a mix of classic soul and hip-hop tracks."[5] Amon Warrmann of Empire wrote "the funky, bass-heavy score by Desmond Murray and Pierre Charles meshes well with the astutely curated soundtrack".[6] Noel Murray of Los Angeles Times complimented the film's "grainy look and retro soundtrack" which is akin to a 1970s blaxploitation picture.[7] Lovia Gyarkaye of The Hollywood Reporter wrote that the characters' motive "complements the score from composers Pierre Charles and Desmond Murray as well as Philippe Pierre and Stephanie Diaz-Matos' music supervision. The latter pair make savvy use of hits ranging from Alicia Myers' 'I Want to Thank You' to Diana Ross' 'Love Hangover' and a new mix of Erykah Badu's 'Tyrone.'"[8] Maddy Mussen of Evening Standard wrote "The soundtrack is full of funk, soul and groove, which is used brilliantly to unsettle the viewer."[9] Tara Brady of The Irish Times wrote that the soundtrack "seals the deal".[10]
