| Mew Eggs Are Funny | 3.5 |
| Usually not a big fan of compilation albums, but I think this one makes a decent job at representing Mew's career so far. Still, two songs from ATGHK are too few for such a good record, White Lips Kissed or Apocalypso could've easily made their way here, maybe replacing Eight flew over.., one of the weakest in Frengers that somehow is included. Cartoons and Macreme Wounds is another big absent.. come to think about it, perhaps 15 tracks are not good enough for Mew. |

| Hans Zimmer Inception | 2.5 |
| People needs to stop thinking Inception was fantastic. It has some good ideas, but it's too restrained by its own rules (the perfect timing thing is absurd), lack of character development, plot holes (who and why trained Fischer, if so how come he's still deceived). As for the Soundtrack, it didn't stick, can't remember, assume that means it was average. |
