Fantastic soundtrack October 11, 2006 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This soundtrack from the movie "The Sentinel", is simply a bomb. The whole CD can match the excitement that I see in the movie. Every track is unique and tense. When I listen to this CD, I feel like I am into tense stages especially in track 1, 7, and 14. Overall, brilliant soundtrack.
"The Sentinel" - I Really Like This Album... June 19, 2007 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Although I was familiar with composer Christophe Beck's work on the TV series Buffy, The Vampire Slayer (which was excellent), I didn't consider his orchestral score for Elektra to be one of his best scores, and I wondered what kind of orchestral score he'd come up with for The Sentinel.
Well, I can safely say that this score more than makes up for Elektra. It's 53 minutes of pulse-pounding music, which begins with the Main Title Theme, which I particularly liked. That sense of tension and suspense continues throughout the rest of the album, especially in the cues, "The Mall", "City Hall", "Garrison's Polygraph" (ever wonder what biting one's fingernails sounds like? you'll hear it in this cue) and "Assassin Down".
These cues reminded me of Jerry Goldsmith's score for U.S. Marchals, because although there are some electronics in the score for The Sentinel, Beck -- like Goldsmith -- wisely keeps them in the background, while allowing the orchestra to convey the suspenseful and tense mood of the film.
The score of The Sentinel is worth listening to, and I highly recommend it.
