3.0 out of 5 stars
Good, despite distracting behind-the-scenes drama., March 28, 2011
This review is from: Spider-Man 2 (Score)/O.S.T. (Audio CD)
It's sad that Danny Elfman and director Sam Raimi are no longer working together. Supposedly, Raimi was a monster to work with on this film, resulting in the hiring of two other composers to work on the movie -- Christopher Young and John Debney. The music is nearly as good as the first film's, though there is a lot of familiar material that's simply reused from "Spider-Man." It's also pretty sad that the insert contains no thank-you list. Elfman must have been very bitter. And the fact that two original version of music are listed as "bonus tracks" (one of them -- the train scene -- was rescored by Young) is simply ridiculous. It was as if Elfman was making them sound more important than they are.
