Obviously it's crap and I'm immoral and going to hell for having this since it's Zimmer, but I enjoy it.
That score is beautiful!
Wow, I´ve always been surprised that almost everybody likes this one. I´ve never liked it, actually last time I tried to listen the whole cd I had to stop.Anything with an orchestra or with a choir....at some point will reach you -

I think beyong rangoon has one of the most beautiful themes from Zimmer ( Now, with few exeptions he always compose this kind of 3 notes progressions themes)
Beyong Rangoon is a mind blowing score, his vocals and his oriental percusion (real or not) makes a great oriental flavour.
Talking about this...
NP:The Last Samurai (Zimmer)
One of his most coherent and complete scores. But there are several things I really dislike: Algren's theme (tryng to be some kind of "earth" rip off), the annoying action music and the Loooooooooong notes in The thin Red Line tradition.
Take 2 examples :
-Spectres of the fog: the first half it's all what I wanted to hear. Koto and and an oriental melody. Even the dissonant percusion is cool. But the track finish with an annoying synthetic nighmare.
- A hard teacher: the first half is boring, really boring. the second half with "the red warrior" theme is really beautiful.
Anyway, " A way of life" and " to know my enemy" are some of the best cues from Zimmer ever! -

I didn't say it sucks....
But yes, it's classic me.
And even when Zimmer is my second favourite composer ever, I think few of his scores are "perfect".

No, you didn't actually say it sucks, but you still picked it apart to an inordinately large degree for a score you supposedly like. It's very strange. -

No , it's not. You can like one score and see his weak points. Few scores are perfect. And for sure, not very much from Zimmer who really has a tendency to be more a composer of concrete tracks than overall scores.

Perfection is a point of view. I have a great many "perfect" albums and scores in my collection, I just feel bad for the person who can't enjoy their music like that and has to find a negative with everything he or she listens to. You seem far too unforgiving with your criticisms of scores at times, and in all honesty it's an attitude I absolutely loathe. -

No, the only problem is because you only see when I say negative things about the scores.
Anyway, When I writte here I try to analyse every score I listen, and that's why I put the good and the bad. But it doesn't mean I'm thinking about it when i listen the score. I just ENJOY the scores. If I was thinking the bad things I never could enjoy and score! and you must be sure , I really do! -

Not at all, Jordi. I know you're crazy... about many scores, and you have many great things to say about them. But you still manage to say just as many negative things. And, as I said, it's an attitude that I just can't agree with. Criticizing a score is all very well, we all do it, but I think it can reach a point of hypocrisy. (Justin's constant smites against Zimmer is probably THE best example.) -

I don't want to thing I have a negative attitude. I really don't!
How i said I just want to be fair, and objective when I writte here. You must be sure, I can stand to say bad things. But I don't want to be a fanboy who always seems to say the best things about scores either. -

Combined the OST and score tracks from Back To Titanic. Remains my favourite Horner score ever! The emotional, traditional and action cues are all great. And the piano-led The Portrait is lovely! -
