5 out of 5 stars Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull   December 28, 2008
As expected, John Williams does his usual great job on this score. I don't think this will get him an Oscar, but this will hold its' own with the best of his scores. No John Williams fan should pass this one up.


3 out of 5 stars Johnny, this one coulda been better!   December 6, 2008
Of course, film fans have high expectations when going to see and HEAR Indiana Jones' films. I am not different.

Sadly, John Williams hasn't created anything truly memorable in this score. It only comes to life when one hears the familiar retreads from the original. Other tracks sound like "Jurassic Park," "Harry Potter," or "Superman" leftovers. Only does the track "The Adventures of Mutt" possess some of the spark that was the key behind the success to the first Jones' film.

I realize that composers can "revisit" themselves or borrow from others, but Williams usually throws in something new in each of his film compositions.

I just don't hear it in "Crystal Skull."



5 out of 5 stars worth the wait   November 20, 2008
My son and I absolutely love John Williams' work and this was no exception. I especially love "The Call of the Crystal", which is very haunting and where sections reminds me of Adolph Deutsch's score for "The Maltese Falcon" which I find very fitting for the Crystal's theme. The only piece that I wish was in the recording of this fourth installment was Mutt's enterance at the train station, which sounded great when he came through the smoke.


5 out of 5 stars The movie is back, and so the movie's soundtrack itself.   November 10, 2008
After a long wait, the movie is back. And so, the familiar movie's soundtrack is so back in the running. All the tracks are so good. When I listened to it, it felt like the adventure feeling was back into town. I liked all the track. My favorite track would be track 1. It was because the familiar "Indiana Jones" music would always attract the movie fans (especially "Indiana Jones" fans) to listen to it for many times. Overall, it was a good soundtrack. I loved it!

I thoroughly enjoyed this soundtrack. It has the classic sound of Indiana Jones and is a lot of fun to listen to. John Williams is brilliant in reviving one of our favorite heroes. I am so glad I decided to buy it. A beautiful soundtrack to add to your collection.
