The music on this CD is haunting and beautiful, and it is a shame that the film for which it was made does not do it justice. The film, in addition to being a disappointment, does not even include some of the best music on this CD

... not just from the soundtrack but from the film.

Jonathan Elias has provided beautiful themes in the past with "The Prayer Cycle", but for an action film like this he may not have been the best choice. When scoring the more quiet portions of the film he excels at creating a soundscape worthy of the visuals on screen, but his action pieces fall flat, often bordering on the repetitive. Standout tracks on this very limited soundtrack include:

"The Discovery", which is a lovely piece opening the movie,

"Starfire", which is filled with strings, a favorite of mine,

"First Kill", which is in my opinion the best of the action cues on this CD,

and "Prophecy Fulfilled", which inspires in a new-agey way that hopefully fans of the genre will appreciate.

Between "First Kill" and "Prophecy Fulfilled" there's a lot of ground to cover, and a lot of it is more of the same. This whole soundtrack feels like an almost-but-not-quite attempt, and if the composer's intent was to be "minimal" with his action and simply provide a throbbing tempo underneath, with no cohesion, he succeded.

For as long as I waited to get this CD, I'm not sure it was worth it...

This review is from: Pathfinder: Legend of the Ghost Warrior (Audio CD)

While the movie for Pathfinder: Legend of the Ghost Warrior was just okay (about 2 1/2 stars), the soundtrack was better and it's what I remembered the most. The score is good background music for when reading but it's nothing noteworthy or worth remembering when compared to some of the great soundtracks (Indiana Jones, Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, The Dark Knight). There is a bit of an American Indian influence to the score but again, mostly just subtle enjoyable music to listen to when doing something else.
