Editorial Reviews

Product Description

This is the original motion picture score to the 20th Century Fox feature film HITMAN, opening in theaters throughout North America on November 21, 2007. Based on the worldwide hit video games, HITMAN is a slam-bang blockbuster starring Timothy Olyphant (LIVE FREE OR DIE HARD, DEADWOOD).

The acclaimed composer of DISTURBIA, Geoff Zanelli, captures all of the excitement with a powerhouse orchestral score that chronicles the action-packed saga of Agent 47 (Olyphant), who is ensnared in a deadly political conspiracy. Also includes 'Ave Maria', as heard in the film's trailers.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great and Fresh. More good work from Zanelli, November 26, 2007

By	Bloatedsack (seattle, wa USA) - See all my reviews

This was a real surprise. I expected a rehash of the game music, but it was utterly original. The intense moments were well driven, and there's even a great love theme!

Anyone who thinks this is lifted from Bourne is quite misguided. They should take a listen to Elfman's "Men In Black" and then reevaluate Mr. Powell's originality.

I can't wait to see what this up and coming composer releases next! His Emmy was well deserved, and from the sound of this work it was only the first of many awards.

Also, check out Zanelli's Disturbia.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Soundtrack!, December 19, 2007

By	Susan L. Fuller "white_stix" (Portage, IN USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Even if you didn't like the movie, there's a lot to like in the soundtrack. I love to listen to instrumental soundtracks while I write, and the Hitman Soundtrack is now among my favorites (along with the soundtracks from Gladiator, X-Men, The Bourne Identity, and the LOTR).

While I happened to like the movie (because of the character more than anything else), those who didn't should still give the soundtrack a chance. The songs have a consistent quality to them and make great background music.

4.0 out of 5 stars Geoff Zanelli Does A Great Job, November 23, 2007

By	Simon Gilmore "symetri" (Fort Worth, TX USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I've been a big Hitman fan for years. I've played the games, have the scores by Jesper Kyd and couldn't wait to see the film. I was even more excited to hear that one of my favorite composers Geoff Zanelli was scoring the film. I was pretty disappointed in the film itself but the score was really well done. Most of the tracks are taken from the game scores and turned into orchestral tracks but it's very well done and pleasing to listen to. I would not recommended this score to just anyone, but if you like Geoff Zanelli's music and are a fan of the Hitman legacy you wont be disapointed.
