Adequate score, pleasant if nothing special

According to what I’ve read on the internet, Graeme Revell was the third composer on this project, and had two weeks to write the score. That sort of thing is not a completely new story in soundtracks. The film is one that I like despite itself, and the score is one I like well enough. There are no themes here, nor development of themes, so if that’s what you’re looking for, keep looking.

There’s a lot of electronics, which shouldn’t surprise anyone, given the composer and the deadline under which he was working. Plus, this is a movie about a post-apocalyptic future in which mankind survives in one last city, trying to keep nature at bay. Electronic music seems to be in order. And yet, the music is not all weird sound beds and synthetic noise. Sure, there’s some of that, but there is also melody, and piano, and some moments of, well, maybe beauty is too strong a word. There is quiet, even hopeful music in places. Surprisingly, I think the action cues, like “Grenade! Monorail Chase” and “Good Boys,” turn out to be the least interesting. They seem to lack the rocking power I would expect them to have. Maybe it’s the recording, or it’s just that the electronic music lacks a certain energy.

Request “Bregna 2415,” “Torture Garden,” and “Aeon Flux.”
Avoid “Una Flux,” and “The Relical and Keeper.” The second track especially is more mood music than anything else, and pretty dull.
