Oh, I completely agree. The score was a big contributor to how much I enjoyed the film. (I like pounding!)
Though I do have to question the wisdom of producing a movie that uses music from Beethoven, Haydn, and the Dubliners and then released a soundtrack that excludes all of those numbers. Argh.
(Also, I would personally love to retire the film cliche of suddenly introducing Irish music during boxing matches/fistfights. But I like the Dubliners.)
