Critical reception
In a four-star review, Rolling Stone favourably labelled the soundtrack album a "thrilling listen" that "brings back the era of the blockbuster soundtrack while making its case for the soundtrack of summer". Filmtracks dubbed the film's cinematic score "a simplistic, repetitive, and mindless score that will appeal to listeners who don't fuss hearing pound away in his trashiest masculine mode".Accolades
