Well, let's not fool ourselves, this won't be an action packed Doyle in the vein of Frankenstein.

Even though, I have to admit his take on Thor was really nice.

I really more into his other stuff (like La Ligne Droite), but we'll see...

I expect this to be in the same vein as Rise of the Planet of the Apes. A score I found completely unremarkable.

I have to agree with this.

This won't be on the same level as The Hunt For Red October and The Sum Of All Fears.

"Hotly" is a word? Interesting...

There is a big Russian choral piece that is certainly inspired by The Hunt for Red October. The score was performed by the London Symphony Orchestra.

Jason / Karol, the LSO played two selections from the score at their recent Patrick Doyle 60th Birthday concert in London at the beginning of the month. The cue with the Russian chorus was called Faith of Our Fathers and you can read the programme notes here:

I thought the two pieces augured well for the score as a whole. The first featured a Hunt for Red October-style Russian chorus, as Jim points out. Very stirring stuff! Although the two selections performed were traditional orchestral pieces, note the composer's comments about the use of electronics.

First sample:

Apart from the obvious ostinato string driven opening, the piece is actually quite good! It develops real nicely into a heroic and uplifting mood.

Still don't know about the film, but the score seems full of promise.

The theme montage in the latest FSM issue piqued my interest enough that I decided to grab this one. Using a 10% off coupon, I was able to get it in FLAC from HDTracks for only $10.78! Sure beats the $14-$24 + shipping that I would have paid at Amazon/Varese!
