5 out of 5 stars Varese Sarabande, a great collection!   October 8, 2005
  1 out of 1 found this review helpful

This product is excellent. You can't hardly ask for a better collection of film music as far as diversity goes. From the smooth beauty of the "Steel Magnolias" theme to the electronic frenzy of "Gone In 60 Seconds", this collection has something for everyone who's ever thought to themself, "The music in this movie is really good!" A must have for film music collectors!


5 out of 5 stars unbelievable bargain   December 22, 2004

I could do an infomercial for this boxed set. The selection of music is incredible. The volume of music is amazing and the price is unbelievable. For the price of one CD you get four CD's packed with great movie themes from some of the most well known movies to the obscure. From Brianstorm to The Empire Strikes Back, from Pee Wee's Big Adventure to Halloween, it's all here. It features all of my favorite composers like John Williams, James Horner and Hans Zimmer as well as some I've never heard of and would not have it not for this wonderful collection. I can honestly say I would have paid this price for the first CD alone, but you get four! If you love music from the movies, this is a must.


5 out of 5 stars A must have! I love these CDs!   April 11, 2004

This collection is amazing. It is huge, but I never got the impression that they were "throwing" things in to fill space. I can listen to the entire set from start to finish and by the time it's done, be ready to start over at disc 1 again! pVarese Sarabande certainly has a formidible archive to dip from--however, what I liked best about this collection is that they weren't afraid to use scores from less popular (or popularly disregarded) movies. This collection is set apart from the vast majority of other film score collections that I've encountered because is actually all about the music/composers and not the movies behind them. I may never have heard some of this music otherwise, simply because I was not interested in the movie behind it.pThis will stay at the top of my playlist for a long time.


4 out of 5 stars Huge.   November 9, 2003

If you are a fan of listening to film music, this is it. A excellent collection of modern film compositions and totally affordable as well. One problem though, where is the TERMINATOR theme by BRAD FIDEL? The soundtrack from T2 was released by VARESE SARABANDE, so they should've thrown that in the mix. Oh, well, a great collection of scores and themes nonetheless.


4 out of 5 stars Umissable but strange selection.   August 24, 2003

Over 4 discs and 84 tracks this box set presents the signature themes for 84 different movies. They have a range between classical, rare, contemporary, post-modern and a couple have no business being included (why is xXx on this???). Where else can you find cues from Nightmare on Elm Street, Ice Age, Back To The Future and Xena: Warrior Princess all in the same collection. pI never knew Varese Sarabande had so many movies in their catalogue. But I'm upset there are no Friday The 13th cues or tracks from more popular movies. I mean I'm a movie buff and I've never heard of The Man From Snowy River or seen The Milagro Beanfield War. But if you love movies then you won't find a more cosy collection of themes than on this CD (unless you buy Volume 2, which actually looks a little bit better). pLike I said, Varese Sarabande own the soundtrack rights to loads of movies so I'm kind of upset that there a few too many generic tracks here. I personally don't find anything special about Alan Silvestri's score to Father of the Bride or George Fenton's You've Got Mail. There are plenty of scores out there that deserved attention in a box set like this but don't let the presence of a few dull tracks put you off buying this. Keep a lookout for Volume 2, available only from Varese Sarabande themselves.
