If the acting, directing, story etc are dire that night tarnish the score for you unless you hear the music first.
The Mission is a pretty good movie IMV. I find De Niro eminently watchable, Jeremy Irons is good in it, and the scenery is spectacular. The narrative is good, and the soundtrack is groovy.
Give it a go...
