Summary: Thank God John Williams is back.
Comment: He's my favorite composer, and I'm glad his first score after his hiatus is an Indy score. I was hoping he would have used more of the jungle-themed ideas he employed in The Lost World, but the few times he does are great anyway. My only gripe is the sound quality--it's too sharp and "digital." It's kinda hard to listen to sometimes. And the "Crystal" theme is a little lackluster. I like Mutt's Robin Hood-like theme, though it takes getting used to. Overall, a great score, definitely better than most of the crap that came out this summer.

Summary: If you're any kind of fan of John Williams, this is a must own...if not...maybe itunes
Comment: Well I must say it has been a long two and a half years since the last score by John Williams...Steven Spielberg's Munich. Since then, we've heard variations of previous score franchises such as Superman Returns, and Harry Potter. However, it's just not the same as an actual John Williams score. For two years, we've had to hear the numerous poisonous score from Remote Control Scoring...and now we have a chance to clean the speakers out, with some good, old fashion orchestral music, roaring through at you in the audience. Does this score live up to this hype?
In my opinion it does. It's not something I'm jumping over, the last score I did that was Jurassic Park. However, it is a nice, light, fun score, that somehow puts a smile on my face everytime i hear it, despite its flaws.
The good: If you're into complex, orchestral, rhythmic style of action cue writing, pieces you cannot predict, like myself, then this score is a real treat. Such cues as "A Whirl through Academe," "The Jungle Chase," and "Ants," and "The Adventures of Mutt," will be a lot of fun for you to listen to. If you like omnious, and tense atmospheric writing, complex, yet effective, this is the score for you. If you like the nostalgia of reoccuring themes from old such as "Raiders March," "Marion's theme," and "Keeping up with the Joneses (though not on the soundtrack...only in the film)"...then this is a score to buy
The Flaws: Is it blasphemous to say a John Williams score has flaws? In any event, this score, like the script to the film, has a few clunky flaws...though not many, are painfully obvious when they occur. One, is that John Williams must be studying the habits of James Horner these last two years...for there are literal copy and pastes in this score from "War of the Worlds" and "The Lost World Jurassic Park." Though these rips are not quite copy and paste in the literal sense, Williams has taken exact motifs from these films, and elaborated...however, these elaborations (such as trumpet 32 note licks, not found in the prior films...or slight change in the rhythm) don't hide the obvious flaw.
Overall, though if you're any kind of John Williams or Indiana Jones fan, this score is a must buy. You'll smile from ear to ear from start to finish, despite the flaws. If you like complex musically grammer and writing, this score like everyother Williams score is a must own...but if you're just interested about it for the next twenty minutes...save your money and get it on itunes.

Summary: Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull by John Williams
Comment: Good, but not as good as I hoped for. Of course the expectations were high, but not really convincing.
Customer Rating:
Summary: If adventure music has a name, it must be Indiana Jones...
Comment: John Williams rarely strikes out, and he has definitely not in this latest composition from Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.
The Indiana Jones theme is what everyone remembers. I would rank it as one of the best motion picture themes. The rest of the soundtrack is very good. There is nostalgia woven throughout this soundtrack. Marion's theme is back and is found in several of the tracks, whether it be a a few seconds or not. Some of the Last Crusade music makes a return as well, at very appropriate times in the movie. I think it's an indication of how well the composition is by how well you are moved by the music and this made me recall all of the fond memories of Indiana Jones moments. There are some rather different themes at play but very much in tune with the theme of the film.
Until the other 3 soundtracks get re-released, this is your best chance to have the Indy theme.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Nothing Distinctive in this one..
Comment: John Williams is by far the most accomplished and successful composers in Hollywood..I will stand by that till my dying day. Unfortunately, IJATKOTCS is not one of his greatest works. A beautiful nostalgic opening with "The Raider's March" is about as good as its gonna get with this one. Unlike the Star Wars series where each character has his/her very distinctive theme music that would literally stay in your head the rest of your life, this piece of work (though technically sound) really has nothing signature about it. It quite frankly left me bored by the end. Very different from the music of its predecessors, which did not really surprise me at all considering the film itself doesn't come close to the Original Trilogy either.
The main reason I bought this album was because the previous 3 are impossible to find today and I really wasn't too keen on missing a 4th time round. Nothing Distinctive here!
