5.0 out of 5 stars Magic Flows Through This Music!, March 18, 2005
I must start by saying that Hook really was a good movie. It not only lives up to J.M Barrie's vision, but added even more! Thanks to Mr. Speilberg.

The music is nothing short of magic. John Williams packed this album with themes. A tinkerbell theme, a neverland theme, a hook theme, and a lost boys theme! He even does his orchestra "swirly thing" "see tracks 5 and 6. :)

This excellent album is a must have for any John Williams fan, or just a fan of good music.

4.0 out of 5 stars Delightful music, December 18, 1999
By "dilinator" (Lansing, Michigan USA) - See all my reviews
This is best described as a cross between Star Wars and Home Alone, with a few hints of E.T., and an overall fairy tale tenor like Edward Scissorhands. All that to say though, it is a pretty, engaging soundtrack. My main complaint is that the songs included are cheesy, especially the first one. The third track, Banning Back Home, is also quite different than the rest of the score, although that is not saying it's bad. A big plus is the length, about 75 mins., and combine that with an excellent price, and you get a soundtrack that's definitely worth getting.

One thing I must say though after reading a number of other people's reviews of Williams' work, is that a lot of his music does sound alike, contrary to what a lot of die-hard "Williams is the greatest" fans. I'm not saying Wiliiams isn't a great composer, and maybe even the best of our era, I'm just saying his music often does sound like "Williams" music, as I described this soundtrack at the beginning. But it's definitely a score worth getting, although I recomend also getting both Home Alone soundtracks, which are in my opinion, even better. Those, along with Hook, are some of Williams' best, most unheralded scores, and definite must-haves for Williams fans, and pretty music lovers alike.

4.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful and Memorable Score with One Flaw, September 6, 2006
William's score to Hook is one of my personal favorites from this legendary composer. Every single track has a strong and moving theme, and I think one of the main reasons I liked the film as much as I did (especially given the apparent dislike of many others) is because of the music. However, I bought the CD especially looking forward to the final cue of Peter Pan's duel with Captain Hook, and I was sorely dissappointed to find that the track "The Ultimate War" ends somewhere after the "battle" with the Lost Boys. The final piece of music, where Hook threatens Peter with torment to the end of his days, and Peter decides to finish the duel was an incredibly exciting and emotional cue for me and I find myself wondering if there is any way I will ever be able to hear it outside of the movie. Be warned about this missing cue if you plan to buy the CD, but otherwise it is a wonderful soundtrack.
