Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.
To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyzed reviews to verify trustworthiness.
Granted, I have not seen the movie, but I can only imagine how well this music must fit it. I absolutely adore the way Mr. Shore uses his string sections to convey the most emotion in his music. His brilliant use of low, brooding cello, double bass work is stunning and haunting and eery. Howard Shore has not only cooked up a simple yet wonderful theme for Panic Room, but also some wonderful suspense music to fill in the film's dark "David Finch directed" nature. If you love Shore's music, you'll still be amazed by this score and what Shore can accomplish with strings. This is nothing like his score to 'Fellowship of the Ring', but it's a very different kind of score, and certainly another worthy addition to Mr. Shore's scoring legacy.
I am hardly a fan of Howard Shore's work, but this is great! Being a fan of thriller scores, I picked this one up after I saw the movie (which was great too!). However, I must warn you it doesn't have anything bombastic. It does have some action and dramatic tracks, but none that really jump out at you. That does not bother me, of course. It is all very subtle like the music is shouting in a whisper. There's not much else I can say except if you like soft thriller music, then this is for you!
