nightscape94 965 Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 The second MI film is hands down the worst. The first is a pretty entertaining movie and feels like it came out forever ago. The 3rd and 4th are definitely worth the watch, IMHO, with the latter being a bit better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marian Schedenig 8,205 Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 It is, but the least entertaining, in my opinion. It's De Palma doing blockbuster action with a decent script. How can that be not entertaining? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweeping Strings 2,363 Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 They all have their moments, but I reckon I'd probably go for the first one as the best too.This discussion has me wondering how Guy Ritchie's Man From U.N.C.L.E. will pan out ...

Jay 37,369 Posted September 19, 2014 Author Share Posted September 19, 2014 Exactly how I feel. Either way I was excited for the score. A true win/win! This frees up Gia to score some currently unassigned Q4 2015 film, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll just have to hope that he gets to to a real Bond score someday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crocodile 8,017 Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 The whole score is excellent.It is good, but the initial PR description might be slightly misleading - it's a far more subtle work than they described.I've not seen the complete film yet, apart from the opening sequence.

Muad'Dib 1,802 Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 Cruise did say on one interview that he hadn't been so moved by a score of his own films since Born on the Fourth of July, so that's something at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koray Savas 2,251 Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 I believe it was more along the lines of: "Who the hell is this guy? I haven't heard a score this good since Born On The Fourth Of July." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt C 454 Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 So Kraemer is providing temp music for McQuarrie to work with during editing? That's better than temping in other composers' music, I suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
