Spotlight customer reviews:
Customer Rating: Summary: Music for the Soundtrack Bignners Comment: The Fountain was described to me as a piece of artwork filled with perceptions and beautiful art direction. However, no one even told me the exceptional music that played an instrumental role in creating a feel for this movie that made me tingle.
Clint Mansell is truly an amazing composer and a master in his field, I have enjoyed many of his work in many movies such as smoking aces and requiem of a dream! You have to give it all a listen. Customer Rating: Summary: Fantastic soundtrack for a so-so movie Comment: I must say I found the film to be a bit pretentious and overwrought. It had some amazing visuals, and some interesting story points along with a nice twist here and there. However, I found it to meander a bit too much and it seemed to be artsy just for the sake of being artsy... hopefully that makes some sort of sense. I enjoyed Pi and Requiem much more than this one.
However, with that being said, I can say that this soundtrack is absolutely astounding. The unique melancholy of the music sets a mood like none other I can think of. This will be in my iPod playlist right next the The Last Temptation of Christ soundtrack, and the OST for Last of the Mohicans. I can't remember the last time I said that a sountrack took me on a journey, but that is what I feel like as I listen to it while typing this. Kudos to Clint Mansell in this wonderful achievement. Customer Rating: Summary: Mansell was brought into this world to score this film... Comment: Clint Mansell apparently "gets" Darren Aronofsky's indie films. This score matches the dreamlike imagery to absolute perfection. It is as if Mansell was BORN TO SCORE THIS FILM. There is simply nothing more I can say except to say thank you Mr. Mansell and the Kronos folks....and where the h*ll can I find the Wind Chill score? Customer Rating: Summary: "Excellent" Comment: All I have to say is "wow"! You must watch the movie, to appreciate this sountrack. Most people, didn't get the movie...but that's due to ignorance.... Customer Rating: Summary: Masterpiece!!! Comment: There's no doubt. This is the best score of 2006 and Clint Mansell is a new musical genius.
