This is another example of the music industry trying to get the consumer to invest in the purchase of multiple soundtrack albums of the same movie. I bought this album because of my curiousity in the track listing (of which there are 10 tracks listed). I already have another CD in my collection -- also titled "RAMBO III: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack", but it contains 23 tracks instead of 10 and has a different jacket cover. If you are a fan of the "Rambo" music or like the compositions of Jerry Goldsmith, you probably aren't going to be happy with this CD. Although Amazon doesn't list the 23 track "Original Motion Picture Soundtrack" like I have, you might want to best spend your dollars at an auction site or "rare" web sites that offer the complete version.

With only a few exceptions, this soundtrack fails to capture the spirit which was presented in Rambo "II", lacking the musical depth and intensity captured in previous Rambo soundtracks. In stark contrast, when listening to the soundtrack from II, you could almost see the movie and feel the energy from the visual by just listening to the tracks. While III is well done in it's own right, it doesn't convey the same stimulus to the imagination. It seems, however, to leave one with the same question that the viewer is left with after seeing the movie: "did we really need this last installment of the Rambo saga?"

Hi all,

I just received RAMBO III Soundtrack CD from Amazon. I swear it is amazing ... I feel like I am in the theatres again. Jerry Goldsmith made special music for RAMBO III better than other movies.. in my opinion. I can say that First Blood , RAMBO: First Blood Part II and the latest RAMBO were almost has the same style of music while RAMBO III like what I said before ... is special .... really special.
