Judgment Night - definitely wins in a debate about the biggest disparity between the quality of a film and it's soundtrack.

Yes, the hip-hop & rock collaboration!

My memory of the film is not so negative, but then:

  1. I was a sucker for 90s action, especially with a hip-hop angle.
  2. It's been three decades since I've seen it (but been listening to the soundtrack pretty much ever since).

My favourite mid-90s US heist movie soundtrack was Dead Presidents, a film that didn't get a sequel but whose soundtrack album was so successful it did!

Admittedly not original compositions, more a "greatest soul hits of the 70s" compilation.
