Not up to Casino Royale's standards October 29, 2008 7 out of 9 found this review helpful
David Arnold's soundtrack to QUANTUM OF SOLACE is not up to his exceptional CASINO ROYALE. It is rather repetitive, somewhat innovative yet unfortunately strangely mundane and uninspiring. There were many complaints about the sparse use of The James Bond Theme in CASINO ROYALE. Well, you can barley find it on this soundtrack. It is there, interwoven, interpolated or whatever but essentially it is missing. I think many of us were led to believe that the use of The James Bond Theme would be more prominent since the finale of CASINO ROYALE ended in such a grand display of the theme and James Bond was now ready to return musically to his roots but continue with the new found realism in the next film. Unfortunately that is not the case, at least musically speaking.

It Just Plain STINKS October 30, 2008 6 out of 8 found this review helpful
The Bond Theme is heard only for a few seconds on cue -#14. THAT'S IT. I Waited 2 years for this? Producers Michael Wilson & Barbara Broccoli have no ear for music WHATSOEVER! Ever watched an episode of LOST.MICHAEL GIACCHINO could bring the series back from the dead (Musically) David Arnold is making a soundtrack to ammuse himself NOT-THE PUBLIC!!!
Good Companion and Followup to CASINO ROYALE November 1, 2008 6 out of 7 found this review helpful
David Arnold's soundtrack to QUANTUM OF SOLACE is a good companion and followup to his provocative soundtrack to CASINO ROYALE. Really, this picks up where CASINO ROYALE ended. It has the same sound, mood and contemplative nature that CASINO ROYALE did. It also does not focus on The James Bond Theme but refers to in it an impressionistic manner. This is an excellent soundtrack.
Bottom of the barrel Bond October 29, 2008 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
Musically speaking this is bottom of the barrel Bond. And David Arnold started out with such promise with TOMORROW NEVER DIES. He has been on the downward slide ever since. This is rock bottom bad. It does not remotely sound like a James Bond soundtrack. It sounds like it got inspiration from MISSION IMPOSSIBLE II, but that was much better. Goodbye Mister Bond. You have heard better days.
