To me, what really makes or breaks a movie is the music. I have seen a lot of movies that are complete junk, but there is a great score and the movie is labeled as "good". I have also seen many good movies with horrible scores, and the movie is never praised for the work that it is. So many times, I find that people get too into one type of music or one type of album. It's a shame because there is so much out there. In terms of albums, there are first of all different kinds of albums. Movie soundtracks may be compilations of songs from different albums used in a certain movie or could be an album written for that specific movie. These are a good way to get a good playlist and to hear new artists. There are also the soundtracks from musical theater productions. For other types of movies, there are musical scores. One famous composer for many popular movies is named John Williams. If you go to the link, you will find many movies that you have watched and realize that you have heard a lot of his work without even realizing it. You may find that you love or hate his work, but either way, at least you have opened up to something new.
