4.0 out of 5 stars Almost, but not quite., June 26, 2008
There are two versions of the score. The original soundtrack (green cover with orange fireball behind Mel Gibson) and Original Motion Picture (darker cover with no fireball) - both have the same track listings, number of tracks and length of tracks. Both say '1995'. So I guess you're just choosing between the artwork.

I can't fault the 18 tracks included in the original score, they're all good and true to what's in the film BUT, why did they exclude the music we hear when William's dead father is brought home? There are echoes of this theme in track [18. End Credits: Braveheart - Original Sound Track] and at the end of [9. Son's of Scotland] - a real sore point for me, especially as it didn't make it onto the 'more music from..' disc. No excuse!

Also missing is the festival wedding music before prima noctre is demonstrated. (this however IS on the 'more music from...' disc, as is the london wedding choir music!)


COMPOSITION: 5/5 - Events unfold in the same order as the film.

CONTENT: 3/5 - Not all of the music from the film is here. There are at least 3 memorable pieces not included, which is a let-down.

MIXING: 5/5 - The way it sounded in the film as you watched it is near identical. Some themes absent from the score do echo naturally in other tracks, but this happens in the theatrical score as well and is intentional.

Overall: 85%

5.0 out of 5 stars Braveheart Soundtrack, October 27, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I love this movie. I also love the soundtrack. Mel Gibson is an awesome director, and so is James Horner, who is the Music Composer. Listening to the CD, it feels like I'm in the movie set, fighting with William Wallace against the 'bloody' English army. Thus, we're driving them out of Scotland. I'm glad that I get to own this CD.
