The soundtrack's full of 90s hits from Pulp, Primal Scream, The Housemartins and more, while Steven Price's orchestral score actually has quite a bit of
refreshing earnestness to it — the 90s pop songs solidify the nostalgia - comedy part of The World's End, while the eerie electronic sounds and intense orchestration of Price's score help immensely to sell the action scenes and drama.
This is not to say that Douglas (Cape Fear), in her first leading role, is unable to hold the screen on her own; she is an appealing, likable presence with a
refreshing, sometimes self - deprecating sense of humor balanced with the right amount of
earnestness needed to pull off the heavier dramatic scenes.
