La Femme Nikita
earned a cult following as a French film, was a disaster as an American remake titled
Point of New Return
and then appeared in its (presumably) final incarnation as a cult television show for the cable network,
USA
. The television show turned out to be a much bigger success than anyone imagined, which meant the appearance of a soundtrack was inevitable. Fortunately, the resulting disc is actually quite enjoyable. Like many late '90s soundtracks,
La Femme Nikita's
foundation is electronica, particularly trip-hop, balanced by moody alternative pop. The blend of the two genres is quite alluring, even if some of the cuts are a little bland. Nevertheless, cuts by
Mono
,
Morcheeba
Depeche Mode
Curve
Fluke
Gus Gus
Morphine
and
DJ Keoki
, as well as
Mark Snow
's theme, makes the record worthwhile. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
