4.0 out of 5 stars A fantastic displayer of emotion!, April 18, 1999

The Avengers Original Score provides feeling for every moment in the movie. The movie was absolutely terrible but John McNeeley's score lived up to many expectations. A brilliant recording although not quite good enough to tip the final star.

4.0 out of 5 stars Far superior to the plot. . . ., March 16, 1999

While I was dissapointed in the story of the movie, I was impressed with the score. I abhore the titles released as "soundtracks" when truly only one or two songs can be found from the film. I enjoyed the score in the theater and now I enjoy it at home. The music is an interesting mix of standard orchestra with some additions of electronic instruments. While the mixture may sound strange, the two go very well together in the majority of the tracks. Overall, it is very enjoyable.

4.0 out of 5 stars Finally the GOOD soundtrack has been released!, December 1, 1998

From the first, whether watching "The Avengers" in the theater or listening via headphones, Mr McNeely's score is both haunting & captivating, providing a dash of charm & style as Steed & Mrs Peel deserve. For those of you out there who've been waiting for the REAL "soundtrack" (as I have), you will not be disappointed. I'm still of the opinion that WB made a huge mistake in releasing that laughably mistitled dreck ("music from & inspired by"... inDEED!), but they've corrected their mistake by allowing video- & audiophiles alike a chance to hear the wonderful score with which Mr McNeely graced "The Avengers" motion picture. Thank you, WB, & all out there... ENJOY!
