Transformers Soundtrack January 29, 2010 A. West 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I read the other reviews on this after really enjoying the soundtrack from watching the film. There's some great rock music on here - some from bands I had not heard before. Excellent repeated listening - have put my favourites on the iPod to enjoy everyday. Would recommend for anyone who likes good commercial rock - not too heavy, not too light.
"I rise, you fall!" June 22, 2009 TK-1308 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
When Steve Jablonsky created the score for the first Transformers movie he tried to break away from the established music used for the franchise to that date and created something new. The first OST was a good action score, even if it did sound a bit familiar in parts, but added to the movie very well.
However, the score for Revenge Of The Fallen falls short of the bar he set for himself with the first one. While there's no denying that it is a good action movie score, a lot of the music on the tracks is very similar to scores from other movies and sci-fi films.
Jablonksy has worked closely with Hans Zimmer for a lot of music and it shows very clearly, especially in this CD which has a tendency to go off into melodies from 'Gladiator' on five separate tracks. There's also a few nods to Zimmer's work on 'The Dark Knight'.
There also several parts which sound similar to McCreary's current Battlestar Galactica scores and the basis of Track 7: Heed Our Warning, is a straight lift from John Carpenter's classic 'The Thing'. This CD could've been named 'Steve Jablonsky plays great sci-fi themes' and you would be none the wiser.
Saying that, there are a tracks of note. Track 5: The Fallen is very good. The music is mysterious and the use of choral voices in the background lends to the malevolence of The Fallen. Track 8: The Fallen's Arrival is a good piece of action music and more of this probably would've made the score stand out.
Tracks 10, 12 and 14 build on themes from the first Transformers score and weave the heroic Autobot music into the melody very nicely.
All in all, it's not a bad soundtrack but if you haven't got the first OST, I'd recommend that one more than this. Also, with the hefty £18 price tag this CD currently has as this review is published, for the amount of music on here it's not really worth it as most of it you'll have heard before.
transformers revenge of the fallen the score June 19, 2009 Mr. James GRAINGER (brean in the forest of dean england) 4 out of 9 found this review helpful
the 1st thing is can steve jablonsky top the 1st transformers score...the answer is oh boy yes he can.ok it's just as good as the 1st one but just miss toping the ist score to transformers but the 1st cd was just a masterpiece.but that is anuff of transforemrs the score lets taik about revenge of the fallen.where to begin.steve jablonsky has added more choir to his songs added with sum main themes for the ist score most of all the autobots theme and no sacrfice,no victory and of couse the brilliant arrived to earth and he has made a epic film score.the songs that stand out on the cd is tracks are eainstien's wong infinite white,the fallen arrived, tomb of the primes, pregous cargo, matrix of leadership wich with out doubt is the best track on the album for me but with a title called that and with tranformers foklaw it had to be good and it is right up there with arrvied to earth from the 1st score this is a truely epic, moveing track if mosses had to part the red sea with a track it is this i would nominate this for a oscar along with infinite of white it won't because great scores never realy do take the dark night early this year by hans zimmer and james newton howard.the other track's that stand out are i clam you sun,i rise you fall,and of couse prime wich is the new theme for the revenge of the fallen.so what about the other tracks on the cd ,nest(wich contains instumental excerpt fron a new divide by likin park ) is bright and bubbley,but the shard,the fallen,head our warning,forest battle.. know this are realy dark and tech well it is called revenge of the fallen.. just think of the score to other jablonsky score the island and you get the driff the track the fallen is truely dark it is sumthing that i would have seen in film like saw not transfromers but it works and i love it ,but i would like have seen a tack with the theme scorponok in wich they used so brilliant in the 1st film and of couse the film trailer maybe there could of used it as bouns track because it walays gives me a buzz.but this a truley another masterpeace frome steve jablonsky and if you can only buy 1 cd this year pleaese make sure it is this.i have placed my order with amazon on the day it was ready to pre order, plus i download it i am listien to it as i am witeing this review mind you more i listen to this cd it gets beter and better. and it is better han the 1st transformers score wow i can't belive i said it.iso can't wait to hear the music with film later today when i go and see transformers revenge of the fallen..
Jablonsky - Transformers: RotF is both diverse and satisfying June 18, 2009 Banner Music Reviews (Stoke, UK) 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
Jablonsky has without doubt surpassed his previous score to the original Transformers movie. His opening theme, Prime, sets the epic nature of the film perfectly, while also showing the reverence and majesty of the autobot leader of the same name. From the very first moment the music begins, one knows that this is going to be a soundtrack that will be played time and time again.
Jablonsky has clearly developed his writing for both orchestra and choir, which is complimented by a diverse use of synthesized sounds. The second track, Einstein's Wrong, uses much more dissonant harmony at times that reflects advancement in his style, showing that Jablonsky can be a daring composer, perhaps even more daring than some of his contemporaries.
The Fallen's Arrival is one of the other highlights of this superb CD that should be pointed out, employing contrasts, rhythmically, melodically and harmonically, that create intense and numerous emotions for the listener. This is a track that will both unsettle and satisfy you at the same time. This should have you on th edge of your seat with suspense, as should this part of the film.
Finally, The Matrix of Leadership is perhaps the most moving track of this album. It's heart wrenching melody will move even the most stubborn. This is without doubt Jablonsky at his best, showing that he is above writing for Sci-Fi and Action films, but is in the truest sense, a composer.
From the aggressive use of rhythms to the lyrical melody writing, this is a score that shines with brilliance. Yes there is some repetition from the first score as Jablonsky occasionally makes reference to it, and while this is without doubt very clever, it can detract from the brilliant originality that is Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. It is a little short and is therefore probably worth downloading rather than purchasing the CD itself, but fans of the franchise will not be disappointed; neither will those who are new to the idea of transforming robots. This is an essential purchase for fans of transformers and of film music.
Majestically wonderful scores June 18, 2009 Saiful Irwan Zubairi (London, UK) 0 out of 2 found this review helpful
I've nothing much to say and perhaps I just wanna tell that the scores are so damn GOOD, I really mean it!!!! It seems like you are looking at the movie and imagining awesome scenes based on the recently added trailers although the movie ain't launch yet..I'd definitely recommend for those all of you out there to buy this instrumental songs composed by Steve Jablonsky and have if now before the start of the movie so that you can really enjoy it at the fullest...Cheers!!
