Editorial Reviews
Captain Phillips is director Paul Greengrass's multi-layered examination of the 2009 hijacking of the U.S. container ship Maersk Alabama by a crew of Somali pirates. It is - through Greengrass's distinctive lens - simultaneously a pulse-pounding thriller and a complex portrait of the myriad effects of globalization. The film focuses on the relationship between the Alabama's commanding officer, Captain Richard Phillips (two time Academy Award® winner Tom Hanks), and his Somali counterpart, Muse (Barkhad Abdi). Set on an incontrovertible collision course off the coast of Somalia, both men will find themselves paying the human toll for economic forces outside of their control. The film is directed by Academy Award® nominee Paul Greengrass, from a screenplay by Billy Ray based upon the book, a Captain's Duty: Somali Pirates, Navy SEALs, and Dangerous Days at Sea by Richard Phillips with Stephan Talty. The film is produced by Scott Rudin, Dana Brunetti, and Michael de Luca. For one of his biggest scores to date, composer Henry Jackman takes his music to the high seas for this epic adventure.

If you know Greengrass then you know he pushed Powell to do lots of percussion. That doesn't change here as the score is full of lots of percussion. The musical stylings are of course accented with ethnic sounds and instruments to accompany the Somali pirates. The score does an excellent job of pushing and pulling. It can push the tempo and then pull it back down at the drop of a dime. It's a lean and simple score with a very basic structure. If there were any shortcomings it's that the score is purely meant to provide tension and nothing really else. There aren't any deep emotional touches till the final track. And unfortunately that last track is a blatant mockup of "Time" from Inception. To be fairly honest, a lot of the tracks here feel very reminscient of Zimmer's structures and style. I've grown to love Henry's voice and while you do hear his pure unfiltered style now and then, it's mostly muddled in dipping into what's done before. Captain Phillips' score can very easily be described as Black Hawk Down meets United 93, which says how very basic its sonic identity is. A lot of the percussion here has that Modern Warfare 2 sound that Lorne Balfe and Hans Zimmer used for that score. Now, don't get me wrong here. Captain Phillips is a very adequate score. I enjoyed the entire experience and it's intended effect is successful.
This Henry Jackman score feels a bit void of what we're used to from him. Maybe Greengrass wanted him to stick to Powell's or Zimmer's stylings, but then again who knows? Even though the score has a familiar genre feel it still gets the job done. The track structures and textures all lend themselves to some great dramatic builds. There just seems to be some heart missing from this one. You will find the way it plays out as a very "to the point" journey, but it never strays away from the expected.
Composed by Henry Jackman (Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter, X-Men: First Class), the score without a doubt sounds like John Powell's style, Greengrass' frequent collaborator. The opening track has a Middle-Eastern sound that Powell normally used in the Bourne soundtracks, combined with stings that help build the atmosphere of the film's opening. The second track, "Maersk Alabama," is very haunting and almost certainly foreshadows the terror ahead, both physical and emotional in nature; a certain "uncertainty" dwelling on the horizon. I won't go any further into track analyses, but i'll say my favorite track is the final one, "Safe Now." Unbearably emotional and beautifully composed, it's the one track that makes the entire score worth it. It's like when you watch a movie, and as good as it may be (or just the opposite), it keeps you waiting for that final, brilliant moment. And when that moment comes, it makes that wait even more worth it, even more memorable.
Captain Phillips is a good soundtrack that isn't an award-winner, but definitely one to add to the collection if you're a collector. If not, then give it a listen and decide for yourself if it's one you'd revisit, due to its similarities to past scores done with the same filmmaker (United 93 being the most influential, as even a part of the track 'The End' from the film is used in Captain Phillips).
Having said that, I think "Captain Phillips" is Jackman's weakest album in a while. That's not to say it's bad, given that Jackman has set the bar so high; but the music here sounds a lot like your everyday action movie score (actually, it would fit well with the Bourne movies that director Paul Greengrass made). Rather than having the effect of increasing the suspense, the music often reminded me that I was watching a Hollywood-ized account of this harrowing real-life drama. As an isolated listening experience, once was enough - this is the kind of score with very few themes or memorable moments, so the re-play value is very low.
The final track, titled "Safe Now", helps the album reach a more triumphant and emotional state - although I must say parts of it sound a lot like Hans Zimmer's "Time" from Inception.
**NOTE: If you did see the film and enjoyed some of the music near the end, unfortunately some of it is not present on this album because it was originally composed for "United 93".

Der Score passt perfekt zu einem Thriller, keine Frage. Durch afrikanische Instrumente weiss man die ersten Tracks direkt, wo man in der Filmhandlung ist. Die gesamten Stücke sind durchgängig pulstreibend, dynamisch und insgesamt wie aus einem Guss. Ruhige Sequenzen, wo man mal Luft holen kann, findet man nicht. Doch genau das wäre nötig gewesen. So wirkt der Score eigentlich fast, wie die Actionsequenzen von Greengras - der ja bei Captain Phillips auch Regie führte - Bourne-Filmen: unheimlich schnell geschnitten, in Punkto Musik eben komponiert, so dass es für manchen echt anstrengend wird. Definitiv kein Soundtrack, bei dem man entspannen kann, aber für Situationen wo man was dynamisches braucht.

作曲は『キック・アス』、『キャプテン・アメリカ/ザ・ウィンター・ソルジャー』のヘンリー・ジャックマン。
トム・ハンクス演じる主人公の船がソマリア海賊にジャックされる映画なので、ソマリア的な=エキゾチックな音楽も流れますが、過度にはエキゾチックになりません。
ヘンリー・ジャックマンは監督からオーダーをいくつか受けたそうで、
「主人公をヒーローっぽくさせない」
「センチメンタルな音楽にしない」
「ソマリア側を典型的な異国情緒音楽にしない」
すべては敵と味方を明確に区分しない配慮だと思われます。
主人公も人間だし、海賊も人間。
通常のハリウッドのアクション映画とは異なる、一歩引いた客観性、冷静さのある音楽になっています。
テンポが早いですし、畳みかけるので、気分は高まりますが、全体的にはクールです。
「緊張感」や「盛り上がり」、「苦い展開」、「主人公の心情」すら排除されているとも言えるかもしれません。
