5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful music, August 23, 2007

By	Craig H. Morgan - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

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

2.0 out of 5 stars I expected more..., May 28, 2007

By	William Smith (Djacarta) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

... 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...

3.0 out of 5 stars Not very........, June 12, 2007

By	Ron Hanby "Rhanzilla" (Providence, RI) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

So you pretty much have no Native American music or anything remotely resembling Viking heroic music...it's kinda bland...as was the movie. That will teach me to buy a soundtrack before seeing the film.
