Rating: - Batman & Robin THE COMPLETE SCORE by Elliot Goldenthal
For those who are interested in Elliot Goldenthal's score from Batman & Robin, there was an EXTREMELY LIMITED release of the complete score for collectors. I've seen asking prices as low as $57.00 up to $80.00 for a copy of the 2-disk CD. I happen to own one of the copies so I can tell you a thing or two about it; first of all, Goldenthal borrows a number of cues from his previous work on Batman Forever so you will hear some recycled material. There are some tracks that are worth playing over and over again (such as "Costume Ball") and then there are others that you'll skip every time you play it.....but with 28 tracks total, you'll have plenty to listen to! I personally enjoy Danny Elfman's work best of all (Batman, Batman Returns) but Goldenthal takes the music in new directions.
If you are lucky enough to track down a copy of this super-rare score, here is a listing of the tracks on both disks:

Rating: - THE END
The End is the Beginning is the End is so good. the rest are all... meh... if you are a Smashing Pumpkins fan like myself, buy this, because those 2 songs are worth it. They pretty much sounds like Jellybelly meets Stand Inside Your Love, or something.
Rating: - One of the best films ever made receives adequate musical accompaniment...
The American moviegoing public really has completely lost its grasp upon what a 'FILM' is. America is uber-obsessed with 'MOVIES' - you know, lets blow up some trucks and make sure our protagonist falls in love with a beautiful blonde bombshell. What America doesn't understand anymore is that MOVIES can be art - they can be FILMS. They can be substantative, evocative, heartbreaking meditations on the human condition. 'BATMAN AND ROBIN' is one of these FILMS, though it has never even been touched by snooty (and misinformed) American critics, who would rather run out and see the new Bertolucci of Jarmusch film. Go to Italy, the country that PRACTICALLY INVENTED MOVING CINEMA, and you will read a much different story. They appreciate this film - all good films - as the true art that they can be.
Ok, though, enough ranting LOL. Seriously, I just sometimes get SO P.O'd BY AMERICAN IDIOTS LOLOL! This soundtrack ... Read More
Rating: - Saved by the Score
Since this album is such an eclectic mix, I have a hard time believing that anyone could like all of the songs. Most will probably only like a few of them. For me, those songs were "Lazy Eye", "Gotham City", "Foolish Games".
However, these songs weren't the CD's real saving grace. What I actually thought was cool was that the Batman instrumental theme was on this disc. However, after opening with some decent tunes and then hitting these bright spots, I felt that the album generally goes downhill. Maybe I just don't dig this kind of music, but I sure didn't find myself singing along, that's for sure.
