5.0 out of 5 stars Cracking CD, Gromit, October 12, 2005

By

This review is from: Wallace and Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit (Audio CD)

It seems like I have been waiting for a W&G film forever. Why, You may ask? Because I have been chomping at the bit for a Wallace and Gromit CD!

It was well worth the Wait! Every cue on this album is Golden! My only complaint is why did Hans Zimmer have to get involved? He seems to take Mr. Nott's thunder away from him! And why did they need some other Composers as well? As evident in the classic shorts, Nott is a very accomplished composer. Maybe He needed some assistance for an exhausting work load. Oh well.

Despite the above gripes,I think this is one of the best soundtracks in years. I especially like "Fire up the Bunvac", "Brainwash and Go", "A Big Trap", and "Dogfight", not to mention the closing cue, "Wallace and Gromit", which is of course the wonderful and completely catchy theme from the aforementioned shorts. Indeed, my Dad was humming that tune for three days after seeing the film!

I heartily recommend this album as well as the movie. Nicely Done!

5.0 out of 5 stars SMASHING!, October 17, 2005

This review is from: Wallace and Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit (Audio CD)

What a wonderful gift to the world: Wallace and Gromit. Those of us who have been fans for years have known this for a while. Know the whole world will know. The films is a blast. The soundtrack brings that blast home (well, at least until the DVD comes out; and, even then it'll still be great to wash the dishes or mop the floors to this CD). The music brings back all the fun of the film. I can't help comparing this CD to the last animated film soundtrack CD I bought: The Incredibles. While the music for the Incredibles was good, it was terribly derivative, borrowing too freely and too often from the Bond movies. Nott has not (no pun intended) fallen into that trap (again, no pun intended . . . see the film). This music is fresh and original . . . of course, the Wallace and Gromit theme insinuates itself several times, but we wouldn't want it any other way. Buy this soundtrack.

5.0 out of 5 stars Expresses the Movie Perfectly!, November 7, 2005

I saw this movie on opening night and I loved it. I am a big fan of British humor. The music in the film is delightful! Each piece matches the scene it corresponds with. This is a great cd (and movie) to check out!
