- [Avatar](https://www.movie-wave.net/avatar/) - Human beings are fickle creatures - I should know, I am one! Our opinions can be fluid, change over time. Being a hobbyist reviewer of film music, I occasionally look back at old reviews I wrote (usually to remind myself whether I liked something or not as I consider listening to it again) - sometimes
- [Avatar: The Way of Water](https://www.movie-wave.net/avatar-the-way-of-water/) - The spectacle of Avatar: The Way of Water is incredible - HFR blah blah, light plot blah blah - it's an intense feast for eyes and ears, so immersive and with by far the best effects I've ever seen in a movie. Never, ever bet against James Cameron. Anyone who didn't like the first one
- [Avatar: Fire and Ash](https://www.movie-wave.net/avatar-fire-and-ash/) - Review of the Avatar: Fire and Ash soundtrack by Simon Franglen
- [Man vs Baby](https://www.movie-wave.net/man-vs-baby/) - Capsule review of the soundtrack to Man vs Baby, by Lorne Balfe.
- [King Solomon's Mines](https://www.movie-wave.net/king-solomons-mines/) - Review of the latest release of Jerry Goldsmith's 1985 score for King Solomon's Mines
- [Jay Kelly](https://www.movie-wave.net/jay-kelly/) - (Summary generated by AI.) The post discusses the film "Jay Kelly," starring George Clooney, exploring themes of success and personal isolation. Composer Nicholas Britell's score is highlighted for its introspective qualities and melodic variety, employing unique techniques like reverse motifs. The music complements the film's emotional depth, showcasing Britell's impressive compositional talent.
- [Nixon](https://www.movie-wave.net/nixon/) - (Summary generated by AI.) Nixon, directed by Oliver Stone, features a remarkable cast and a compelling portrayal of President Nixon, highlighted by Anthony Hopkins' commanding performance. John Williams' score stands out with three exceptional pieces, including themes that evoke both power and turmoil. Despite challenging listening, the soundtrack captures the complexities of Nixon's presidency effectively.
- [The Chairman](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-chairman/) - (Summary generated by AI.) Gregory Peck stars in The Chairman as a spy in China, unknowingly implanted with an explosive device. The film, unsuccessful, is remembered mainly for Jerry Goldsmith's score, which blends westernized Chinese elements. A recent re-recording enhances its audio quality. The album features additional tracks and a demo showcasing Goldsmith's diverse talent.
- [Ella McCay](https://www.movie-wave.net/ella-mccay/) - (Summary generated by AI.) James L. Brooks's first film in 15 years, Ella McCay, is a political comedy/drama about a woman unexpectedly becoming state governor. Brooks, now 85, faces an underwhelming response. The score by Hans Zimmer features pleasant melodies but lacks memorable themes. Despite its charm, the film and score may not attract much attention.
- [The Accidental Tourist](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-accidental-tourist/) - Lawrence Kasdan's The Accidental Tourist is a mature film, ostensibly a romantic drama but ultimately quite a moving study of grief. William Hurt and Kathleen Turner play a couple unable to cope with the death of their son, leading to their separation; he goes on to meet a very different type of woman played by
- [Nuremberg](https://www.movie-wave.net/nuremberg/) - (Summary generated by AI.) The Nuremberg trials are retold in a new film directed by James Vanderbilt, based on Jack El-Hai's book. Rami Malek stars as psychiatrist Douglas Kelley, observing accused Nazi leaders like Hermann Göring. Composer Brian Tyler creates a poignant score, blending earnest themes with emotional depth, though not reaching his highest acclaim.
- [Frankenstein](https://www.movie-wave.net/frankenstein/) - (Summary generated by AI.) Guillermo del Toro's film adaptation of Frankenstein explores the contrast between good and evil through its characters, with Alexandre Desplat's score emphasizing emotional depth and relationships. While the film has received mixed reviews, the music stands out for its elegance and precision, offering a rich, introspective auditory experience that enhances the storytelling.
- [Death by Lightning](https://www.movie-wave.net/death-by-lightning/) - (Summary generated by AI.) Death by Lightning, adapted from Candice Millard's book, explores James Garfield’s election and presidency. Michael Shannon stars as Garfield alongside Matthew Macfadyen as assassin Charles Guiteau. Ramin Djawadi’s score showcases a blend of serious drama and wit, offering memorable melodies and touches of humor throughout, creating an impressive and sophisticated sound.
- [L'homme qui rétrécit](https://www.movie-wave.net/lhomme-qui-retrecit/) - (Summary generated by AI.) The third adaptation of Richard Matheson's novel "The Shinking Man," directed by Jan Kounen and featuring Jean Dujardin, has received mixed reviews. Alexandre Desplat's score is uniquely French and combines subtle electronic and acoustic elements. While initially low-key, the music evolves to include more vigorous themes, blending psychological thriller and whimsical sounds.
- [The Oval Portrait](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-oval-portrait/) - (Summary generated by AI.) Andrew Morgan Smith's score for The Oval Portrait is a remarkable blend of classic horror influences and modern sensibilities, showcasing both elegance and melodrama. The orchestration, particularly with strings and winds, is masterful, featuring memorable themes. Smith's work stands out as a notable achievement in horror film music for the year.
- [The Woman in Cabin 10](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-woman-in-cabin-10/) - (AI-generated summary) The Woman in Cabin 10, starring Keira Knightley, follows a journalist who witnesses a woman fall overboard from a superyacht, only to find no evidence of the incident. Despite a strong cast and Benjamin Wallfisch's effective score, the film fails to deliver a coherent narrative, relying heavily on the audience's disbelief.
- [Crimson Tide](https://www.movie-wave.net/crimson-tide/) - Tony Scott's Crimson Tide, a standout in the Simpson/Bruckheimer action genre, features strong performances from Gene Hackman and Denzel Washington amidst a nuclear crisis. Hans Zimmer's influential score set a new standard for action films, blending various musical elements and establishing a powerful, enduring theme that transformed film scoring. (Generated by AI.)
- [Eden](https://www.movie-wave.net/eden/) - The film directed by Ron Howard struggles for distribution despite its star-studded cast. Set in the Galapagos, it reveals settlers’ descent into depravity. Hans Zimmer’s bleak score reflects this darkness, avoiding exotic elements and emphasizing human emotion. It lacks hope but compellingly portrays despair, creating a memorable yet unsettling listening experience. (Generated by AI)
- [A Big Bold Beautiful Journey](https://www.movie-wave.net/a-big-bold-beautiful-journey/) - A Big Bold Beautiful Journey, directed by Kogonada and starring Margot Robbie and Colin Farrell, explores themes of love and loss through unusual adventures. Joe Hisaishi's unique score, his first for an American film, balances meditative beauty with emotional depth, showcasing both joy and melancholy, yet has met with mixed audience reactions.
- [Long Distance](https://www.movie-wave.net/long-distance/) - Long Distance features Anthony Ramos and Naomi Scott as stranded astronauts. Despite its long shelf life, the film's score by Steven Price is highlighted as exceptional, blending orchestral forces with electronics. Price’s music, rich in themes and emotional depth, balances action and softer pieces, creating an engaging sci-fi experience.
- [Play Dirty](https://www.movie-wave.net/play-dirty/) - There have been various films based on the Parker novels by Richard Stark, with actors including Lee Marvin, Robert Duvall, Mel Gibson and more recently Jason Statham taking on the role. Shane Black's Play Dirty was apparently supposed to be the first of a new Parker "universe" from Amazon, though it's really not very good
- [Sword of the Sea](https://www.movie-wave.net/sword-of-the-sea/) - Sword of the Sea is set in a desolate world where the player brings back life. It is the third game released by Giant Squid, following Abzû and The Pathless, and its creative team had previously worked on Journey. All of those feature impeccable scores by the world's preeminent composer of game music, Austin Wintory
- [The Legend of Bagger Vance](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-legend-of-bagger-vance/) - Perhaps drawing inspiration from elements of two of the best sports movies (both about baseball) - the "returning to the game after years away" aspect of The Natural and some of mystical elements of Field of Dreams, Robert Redford's The Legend of Bagger Vance tried this with a different sport, golf. While the film -
- [The Horse Whisperer](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-horse-whisperer/) - A film of some depth, Robert Redford's The Horse Whisperer - based on the very popular book by Nicholas Evans - works as a romantic weepy if that's how you want to watch it, but also looks at broken relationships in several different ways. Redford (directing himself for the first time) plays the eponymous character
- [Quiz Show](https://www.movie-wave.net/quiz-show/) - Probably my favourite film directed by Robert Redford, Quiz Show is an impeccably-made chronicle of the scandals which rocked American tv quizzes in the 1950s, in particular the show Twenty-One hosted by Jack Berry. Ralph Fiennes and John Turturro give brilliant performances to anchor the film, which serves as an allegory towards a general loss
- [A River Runs Through It](https://www.movie-wave.net/a-river-runs-through-it/) - Telling the story of two very different brothers who bond over a shared love of fly fishing, Robert Redford's A River Runs Through It stars Craig Sheffer and Brad Pitt and is set in 1920s Montana against the backdrop of prohibition and then the start of the Great Depression. Against the backdrop of truly stunning
- [The Lost Bus](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-lost-bus/) - Paul Greengrass's The Lost Bus stars Matthew McConaughey as a bus driver trying to navigate America Ferrara's school teacher and her class to safety during 2018 Californian wildfires. It's the second film in a row from the director to be scored by James Newton Howard; Greengrass is notorious for being difficult to please musically and
- [Americana](https://www.movie-wave.net/americana/) - A neo-western starring Sydney Sweeney and a man with a beard, Americana seemed to come and go from cinemas with so little attention, despite the fact that its lead actor seems to appear in every third post I read on social media. That's a bit mysterious, and I do hope it doesn't mean that David
- [Untamed](https://www.movie-wave.net/untamed/) - It's been just over a decade since Jeff Russo first really came into the spotlight as a composer with his outstanding work on the tv series Fargo, since when his rise has been meteoric. He is now improbably prolific (in 2025 alone - which is not yet 75% complete - he has received sole composing
- [On Her Majesty's Secret Service](https://www.movie-wave.net/on-her-majestys-secret-service/) - Sticking closer to the source Ian Fleming novel than any of the other movies in the series, On Her Majesty's Secret Service is widely considered to be one of the finest James Bond movies. The character has a vulnerability not seen in many of the others, as he genuinely falls in love - gets married!
- [Went up the Hill](https://www.movie-wave.net/went-up-the-hill/) - A psychological ghost story, Samuel van Grinsven's Went up the Hill sees a man returning to New Zealand to attend the funeral of his mother (from who he was separated at an early age). Her spirit inhabits both him and her widow and she speaks to each through the other (the two characters are called
- [Highest 2 Lowest](https://www.movie-wave.net/highest-2-lowest/) - A thought-provoking thriller, Spike Lee's Highest 2 Lowest is a loose remake of Akira Kurosawa's High and Low. Denzel Washington plays a music mogul who believes his son has been kidnapped and is prepared to pay the hefty ransom, but when it turns out it is actually his driver's son who has been kidnapped has
- [The Thursday Murder Club](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-thursday-murder-club/) - Quickly becoming a literary phenomenon in the UK following its release in 2020, Richard Osman's debut novel The Thursday Murder Club (which has already seen three sequels published) follows a group of retirees initially investigating cold cases from their retirement community before more active murders cross their paths. It's such an innately British book in
- [Dracula](https://www.movie-wave.net/dracula-2/) - Luc Besson's Dracula hasn't seen much of a release anywhere yet outside of his native France, so most of us won't have had a chance to see it. Reviews suggest it is essentially an homage to Francis Ford Coppola's 1992 take on the story above all else, with many questioning what the point is. Given
- [Chief of War](https://www.movie-wave.net/chief-of-war/) - I must admit that my 47-year-old brain struggles to keep up with events in Chief of War (I remember as a child sitting with my parents and them keep asking "who is that?" "why is he doing that?" etc and I am now in that place) but it's an entertaining historical drama about the late
- [Towerborne](https://www.movie-wave.net/towerborne/) - I remember how excited I was the first time I heard Austin Wintory's mesmerising music for Journey - while there had been plenty of wonderful video game music beforehand, it felt like a bit of a watershed moment to me - such personal, sophisticated music being written for a game. He's had a wonderful career
- [XXX](https://www.movie-wave.net/xxx/) - Since Randy Edelman's first score, rather improbably for The Chipmunk Adventure in 1987, his career has taken a path through a string of comedies (most famous among them being Beethoven and My Cousin Vinny), a couple of high-profile adventure films (Last of the Mohicans, Dragonheart) but mostly rather dreadful action films. During the last couple of years he has scored China: The
- [Windtalkers](https://www.movie-wave.net/windtalkers/) - Composed by James Horner RCA Victor / 2002 / 67m After making some financially successful action pictures in Hollywood, Hong Kong director John Woo aimed for a more "serious" film when he made Windtalkers, which was notionally about the Navajo code used by the Americans in World War Two and the Native Americans used to pass it on.
- [The Natural](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-natural/) - Commonly cited as one of the all time great sports movies, The Natural is a fantasy about a very promising baseball player who attempts to start his career at the age of 35, 16 years after he was shot while on his way to (so he thought) the big time. Full of Arthurian references, the
- [Further site update](https://www.movie-wave.net/further-site-update/) - If you are reading this then that means you are accessing the site on its new server, which has been funded by the extraordinary generosity of readers. Hopefully you find it to be a much better experience, and I look forward to continuing writing about film music for years to come. I have been overwhelmed
- [Site update](https://www.movie-wave.net/site-update/) - I've been writing about film music since 1996, starting with a website hosted by my university before moving to a few cheap, free ones before taking the plunge and paying for dedicated hosting in the early 21st century. When WordPress came along this was a godsend. But in 2025, it is obvious that the architecture
- [The Naked Gun](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-naked-gun/) - It's fair to say that there was a healthy dose of scepticism about this Naked Gun reboot, starring Liam Neeson and Pamela Anderson and without an Abrahams or Zucker in sight, but the response to it has been pretty positive. As others have noted, Liam Neeson is probably the movie star whose name most closely
- [The Fantastic Four: First Steps](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-fantastic-four-first-steps/) - After previous attempts at bringing them to the big screen have largely failed, wouldn't you know it would be the fantastic fourth attempt that would finally pay off. Joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe for the first time, The Fantastic Four: First Steps is probably the best-received film in said universe for quite some time, audiences
- [Aiming High: A Race Against the Limits](https://www.movie-wave.net/aiming-high-a-race-against-the-limits/) - A documentary about an attempt to stage a downhill ski race at the foot of the Matterhorn and the various challenges the organisers faced, Aiming High becomes the latest in a string of impressive soundtrack releases from the Baldenweg siblings, credited as usual as being composed by Diego with Nora and Lionel. It's an interesting
- [Superman](https://www.movie-wave.net/superman-2/) - James Gunn's new Superman has finally made its long-awaited appearance in cinemas, the latest incarnation of the character being played by David Corenswet and meeting what feels like a much more positive response than Zack Snyder's previous version, albeit with some fierce exceptions. It was just over twelve years ago that I wrote about Snyder's
- [The Three Musketeers](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-three-musketeers/) - Stephen Herek's fairly mediocre 1993 version of The Three Musketeers didn't have much going for it really, with the fairly unlikely combination of Charlie Sheen, Kiefer Sutherland and Oliver Platt playing the triumphant triumvirate and Chris O'Donnell as D'Artagnan, though Tim Curry is as great as you might imagine as Cardinal Richelieu. Aside from Curry,
- [Superman](https://www.movie-wave.net/superman/) - Richard Donner's Superman was released in 1978 and set the template for comic book adaptations on the big screen - while they have become a huge part of the landscape more recently, at the time there just weren't any others (and wouldn't really be many more for still some time afterwards, apart from this film's
- [Jurassic World Rebirth](https://www.movie-wave.net/jurassic-world-rebirth/) - It's incredible really that only 18 years separated the releases of Jaws and Jurassic Park, Steven Spielberg's two films which each changed the whole nature of "popcorn movies" - and then 32 years have passed since the latter's release, and so far nobody's really changed the formula again. Jurassic World Rebirth is the sixth sequel
- [F1: The Movie](https://www.movie-wave.net/f1-the-movie/) - I used to enjoy watching Formula 1 when I was growing up, the era of the great rivalry between Ayrton Senna and Alain Prost (with entertaining interjections from Nigel Mansell). On 13 November 1994 I woke up early to watch the Australian Grand Prix from Adelaide and watched Michael Schumacher deliberately take out his rival
- [Braveheart](https://www.movie-wave.net/braveheart/) - It's been thirty years since Braveheart was unleashed on the world, Mel Gibson's film telling the story of the heroic English triumph over the Scottish terrorist William Wallace. While Gibson became a persona non grata (and then some) in later years, at this time he could really do no wrong and his sophomore directorial outing
- [Fountain of Youth](https://www.movie-wave.net/fountain-of-youth/) - Guy Ritchie is more than capable of producing a colourful modern comedy/adventure twist on the Indiana Jones formula and that's what I was hoping we'd get in Fountain of Youth. It's not really that at all - the comedy falls flat and the adventure is too silly to become invested in, as John Krasinski and
- [Somewhere in Time](https://www.movie-wave.net/somewhere-in-time/) - Despite meeting with a very poor response both critically and commercially upon its original release in 1980, Somewhere in Time developed a cult following over the years. Jeannot Swarcz's film - based on Richard Matheson's novel Bid Time Return - sees Christopher Reeve become obsessed with a young actress from seventy years prior (Jane Seymour)
- [Little Siberia](https://www.movie-wave.net/little-siberia/) - Antti Tuomainen is one of my favourite living writers - the Finn writes magnificently quirky stories which tend to see fairly dull lead characters' mundane lives suddenly being thrown out of kilter by some unfortunate event and then them wrestling to try to bring things back under control. In Little Siberia, the fairly dull lead
- [Gundam: Next Universal Century](https://www.movie-wave.net/gundam-next-universal-century/) - I had absolutely no idea what Gundam was before I came across this soundtrack album. Turns out it's a gigantically popular franchise in Japan (and elsewhere) based on robots - tv series, movies, games, manga, books - and this album is the soundtrack from a pavilion at the 2025 World Expo. And let me tell
- [Pursuit / Crawlspace](https://www.movie-wave.net/pursuit-crawlspace/) - While Jerry Goldsmith’s vast filmography has been pretty well-served by album releases over the years, there are still various scores that have not seen the light of day – in particular from his work in television. And while some of these have been lost to the ages, hope is not in fact lost, because of
- [A Little Princess](https://www.movie-wave.net/a-little-princess/) - Based on Frances Hodgson Burnett's beloved 1905 children's book, A Little Princess (released 90 years later) was Alfonso Cuarón's second film, and his first English-language one. It stars Liesel Matthews as a young girl, Sara, who encounters cruelty at the boarding school she is sent to following the death of her father at war. Greeted
- [La Cache](https://www.movie-wave.net/la-cache/) - Released in the English-speaking world as The Safe House, Lionel Baier's La Cache is set in the period of civil unrest in France in 1968 and tells the story of a young boy hiding away in his grandparents' apartment in Paris. While I haven't seen it, reviews suggest it has an interesting tone bridging between
- [Lee](https://www.movie-wave.net/lee/) - Typical woke nonsense - a biopic of Robert E. Lee starring Kate Winslet as the Civil War general - it's no wonder it didn't perform too well in the southern states. No, I'm only joking, it's actually about Lee Miller, the pioneering WWII photojournalist, and was a real labour of love for Winslet. It's the
- [Out of Africa](https://www.movie-wave.net/out-of-africa/) - Sydney Pollack's classic romantic weepie Out of Africa was one of 1985's most popular films, audiences really falling for Meryl Streep and Robert Redford as Karen Blixen and Denys Hatton, whose complicated early 20th century relationship in Kenya formed the basis of Blixen's popular memoir. The film won seven Oscars - including Best Picture and
- [Mufasa: The Lion King](https://www.movie-wave.net/mufasa-the-lion-king/) - You can imagine the pitch meeting for this: "Oh that's a great idea - an origin story for Mufasa. Let me just check one thing: you do mean doing it like the 2019 "photorealistic" version that everyone hates, don't you? And not like the 1994 one that's universally-beloved? You do, that's great, thanks." One of
- [Moonraker](https://www.movie-wave.net/moonraker/) - Review of Moonraker soundtrack by John Barry
- [SuperKlaus](https://www.movie-wave.net/superklaus/) - After Santa bumps his head and comes to believing he is the superhero SuperKlaus, the Christmas caped crusader takes on a nasty businessman and it's up to his elves to save the day in this Spanish animation. Providing the score is the ever-reliable Diego Navarro. Most years there seems to be a new lovely festive
- [The Return](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-return/) - Based on the final part of Homer's Odyssey, Uberto Pasolini's The Return covers Odysseus's return to Ithica after decades away fighting in the Trojan war. Starring Ralph Fiennes and Juliette Binoche, the film has garnered positive notices, especially for the actors. Interesting fact: Pasolini is no relation to the other director of that name -
- [The Man with the Golden Gun](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-man-with-the-golden-gun/) - Roger Moore's second Bond film, The Man with the Golden Gun was released precisely fifty years ago on the day I'm writing these words. It raised the camp levels so far that the film is generally regarded as one of the series' weakest (though - while acknowledging it is clearly not at the level of
- [That Christmas](https://www.movie-wave.net/that-christmas/) - Penned by Richard Curtis and helmed by Simon Otto, That Christmas is an animated family story about stockings, snow and Santa and is the first Christmas movie scored by John Powell. It is far from the first animated movie scored by John Powell however, and if you like them then you'll be pleased to know
- [Carry-On](https://www.movie-wave.net/carry-on/) - Say what you want about director Jaume Collet-Serra, you certainly can't accuse him of lacking balls: reviving the once-popular Carry On series in these woke times is a bold move indeed. I have to say I didn't find it as funny as the better films in the series - Taron Egerton is no Sid James,
- [Moana 2](https://www.movie-wave.net/moana-2/) - In the middle of all the creatively bankrupt "live action" remakes of classic animations and increasingly desperate Marvel movies, Disney did release a couple of genuinely great animated features in the last decade in Moana and Encanto. Both of these featured wonderful sets of songs by Lin-Manuel Miranda, suggesting they may have finally found their
- [Blitz](https://www.movie-wave.net/blitz/) - I found Steve McQueen's revisionist tale of life for one family during the German bombardment of London to be slick and well-made but surprisingly unmoving; the concentration on terrors domestic rather than foreign is of course the whole point but takes a little getting used to. Musically, there are two elements here - first, period
- [Gladiator II](https://www.movie-wave.net/gladiator-ii/) - The first Gladiator film changed film music, completely. It was the first time a real "prestige" film had been scored that way - you could write a book about its influence, all the reasons why nothing was the same again afterwards - but that's for another time. Over two decades later, the sequel - the
- [White Bird](https://www.movie-wave.net/white-bird/) - After sitting on the shelf for a couple of years, Marc Forster's White Bird has finally been released in the US, to pretty disastrous financial returns. A sequel to 2017's surprise hit Wonder, it picks up the story of a seriously disfigured young man, now attempting to make his way in a new school, as
- [Kensuke's Kingdom](https://www.movie-wave.net/kensukes-kingdom/) - Before turning to the topic at hand, I wanted to pay a little tribute to the MovieScore Media label. I remember reviewing their very first release, 18 years ago - when I was worried that they were a digital-only label, which I didn't approve of at the time. (Now I'd be very happy if I
- [Twisters](https://www.movie-wave.net/twisters/) - I don't know if you can remember this, but apparently a couple of years ago a film was released which did not star Glen Powell. I know it's hard to believe but Google it if you must - I swear it's true. Of all the recent Hollywood nostalgic trips back to films of the 1980s
- [The Union](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-union/) - I must admit, I spent so much of my time watching The Union concerned that Halle Berry's hair covering at least one of her eyes at most times would make her life as a secret agent considerably more difficult than it really needed to be, that I may have missed all the good parts of
- [Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F](https://www.movie-wave.net/beverly-hills-cop-axel-f/) - Three decades after the pretty awful third instalment of the series, Eddie Murphy returned to his most famous role for a fourth one - and while it got a mixed reception, I enjoyed it. Films described as "action comedy" rarely do the comedy particularly well, but this film prompted me to go back to the
- [Remembering Jerry Goldsmith](https://www.movie-wave.net/remembering-jerry-goldsmith/) - I can't quite believe it's been twenty years since the great Jerry Goldsmith left us. His music has been part of my life for most of my life - still today, rarely a day goes by that I don't listen to at least some of it. We all have different reasons for liking film music
- [Ivanhoe](https://www.movie-wave.net/ivanhoe/) - When I first started making the move from my casual love of the music of films I loved while I was growing up into a more obsessive passion for film music and wanted to explore its golden age, there were only really two composers whose music from the golden age was particularly widely-available on CD
- [The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-ministry-of-ungentlemanly-warfare/) - Loosely based on a true story, Guy Ritchie's The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare tells the story of a secret WWII mission - commissioned by Winston Churchill - to take out an Italian ship docked on a small island off the west African coast and thereby cut off a key supply line to German u-boats in
- [Tv round-up](https://www.movie-wave.net/tv-round-up/) - We Were the Lucky Ones tells the story of the Kurc family during the second world war. Until it began they lived in the Polish city of Radom, but following Hitler's invasion some went into hiding, some were taken to concentration camps and others flew to distant corners of the world. The score is jointly
- [The Tattooist of Auschwitz](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-tattooist-of-auschwitz/) - While Heather Morris's novelisation of the memoirs of Holocaust survivor Lale Sokolov has not been without its controversy (the Auschwitz Memorial Research Centre has criticised it for some factual inaccuracy), it is an extraordinary love story set against the backdrop of evil and I have found the tv adaptation to be harrowing and powerful. I
- [First Knight](https://www.movie-wave.net/first-knight/) - Composed by Jerry Goldsmith La-La Land Records / 2011 / Complete score 78:50 / Other material 67:53 First Knight is a confused film - one which attempts to paint a more "serious" picture of the King Arthur legend, without any of the wizadry etc, but which then casts Richard Gere as Lancelot, whose all-American "aww
- [Off the beaten track, March 2024](https://www.movie-wave.net/off-the-beaten-track-march-2024/) - I've only done about three useful things in my life - I would like to do more but having no talent for anything is a bit of a barrier. Still, if I can do one useful thing through this website then it's to highlight great music that you might not otherwise find out about, and
- [Shogun](https://www.movie-wave.net/shogun/) - Film music isn't a genre of music - it's effectively all genres. For a while it was very largely dominated by romantic symphonic music, then jazz came into it, then other 20th century musical forms, and eventually we've ended up in a place where it can be anything. Likewise, there are so many ways of
- [Planet of Lana](https://www.movie-wave.net/planet-of-lana/) - With its striking visuals inspired by Studio Ghibli, Planet of Lana is a platforming video game featuring a girl and her cat which achieved positive notices on its release in 2023. Notable to readers of this website is its stirring music composed by Takeshi Furukawa, one of my favourite scores of the year. It starts
- [MacArthur](https://www.movie-wave.net/macarthur/) - Seven years after writing one of his most extraordinary scores, for Patton, Jerry Goldsmith took on the challenge of scoring a biopic of another of the great WWII generals, Douglas MacArthur. He saw it as an interesting challenge, how to revisit a superficially similar thing but do it in a different way. And while in
- [Pleasantville](https://www.movie-wave.net/pleasantville/) - An entertaining film about repression and prejudice, Gary Ross's Pleasantville stars Tobey Maguire and Reese Witherspoon as a pair of siblings who find themselves transported inside a 50s tv show. As she in particular encourages the residents of the town to lose their inhibitions and start being themselves, the characters and locations gradually start shifting
- [Society of the Snow](https://www.movie-wave.net/society-of-the-snow/) - When I was a boy I used to go on walking holidays every year with my dad in North Devon. We'd stay in bed-and-breakfasts and every evening would get back, clean up, have a meal and then do a bit of reading or something before a well-earned night's sleep. One year the bed-and-breakfast we were
- [Mog's Christmas](https://www.movie-wave.net/mogs-christmas/) - Four years ago my daughter was enchanted by the animated tv adaptation of Judith Kerr's timeless children's classic The Tiger Who Came to Tea and at Christmas 2023 the most-anticipated viewing in our house has been the same team's adaptation of the same author's 1976 book Mog's Christmas, about a cat who gets scared and
- [Festive round-up](https://www.movie-wave.net/festive-round-up/) - It's the most wonderful time of the year: I've finished work, the fridge is well stocked with cheese, Chris Rea's on his way home and there's half of a new film by Zack Snyder on Netflix. It doesn't get better than that, well until next week and the Cadbury Creme Eggs are out. While not
- [The Last Wife](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-last-wife/) - A Vietnamese period drama, The Last Wife is about a young woman scorned as she is unable to bear her prominent husband a son, who starts an affair with her former lover. Scoring the film is the trio of Christopher Wong, Garrett Crosby and Ian Rees who have become prominent composers in Vietnamese cinema despite
- [All the Light We Cannot See](https://www.movie-wave.net/all-the-light-we-cannot-see/) - I loved Anthony Doerr's novel All the Light We Cannot See - it very slowly and very delicately tells twin storylines about a young blind girl who moves with her father from Paris to St Malo as Germany occupies France in WWII, and a young German radio engineer who has a lot of doubts about
- [Night After Night](https://www.movie-wave.net/night-after-night/) - Say what you will about the films of M. Night Shyamalan, I don't think there's any doubt that the eight of them scored by James Newton Howard are made so much better thanks to his contribution. The composer has built up numerous directorial relationships over his long career and enjoys ongoing collaborations with many of
- [Life On Our Planet](https://www.movie-wave.net/life-on-our-planet/) - An eight-part series which tells the four billion year story of life on Earth (couldn't they have been a bit more ambitious?), Netflix's Life On Our Planet is produced by Steve Spielberg and the man behind so many great natural history documentaries, Alastair Fothergill, and narrated by Morgan Freeman. It apparently uses a mix of
- [The Burial](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-burial/) - The Burial is not just set in the 1990s, it very much feels as if it was made then. A courtroom drama very much like that decade's various John Grisham adaptations - only this time loosely based on a true story - it features a real Movie Star performance by Jamie Foxx who is completely
- [The Rock](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-rock/) - When you think about "influential scores", it's quite interesting (to me, anyway) that they tend to roll off the tongue when you think about the last quarter of a century - The Rock, Gladiator, American Beauty, The Bourne Identity, The Dark Knight - but when you think about it, they really didn't tend to exist
- [Morricone: Cinema Rarities](https://www.movie-wave.net/morricone-cinema-rarities/) - Not surprisingly, in the months following the great Ennio Morricone's passing, various albums were released celebrating his music, most interestingly various re-recording projects of different kinds. Of these, the one most obviously "sanctioned" by his family was Cinema Suites for Violin and Orchestra, with soloist Marco Serino accompanied by the Orchestra Haydn di Bolzano e
- [The Creator](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-creator/) - AI is all the rage at the moment, with high-profile strikes through Hollywood from people afraid of their jobs being taken away, and kids around the world asking ChatGPT to do their homework for them, so Gareth Edwards's new film about mankind's battle with increasingly-omniscient AI in the distant future is very timely. I speak
- [Company Business](https://www.movie-wave.net/company-business/) - The penultimate film directed by Nicholas Meyer, Company Business was an unfortunate casualty of timing. A cold war thriller about a CIA/KGB prisoner exchange gone wrong, the film entered production as the Berlin Wall fell and real life was rendering its content immediately irrelevant - rushed rewrites ended up making it seem like a bit
- [A Haunting in Venice](https://www.movie-wave.net/a-haunting-in-venice/) - There are many ways to skin a cat. After decades of asking Patrick Doyle to score his films, Kenneth Branagh decided for A Haunting in Venice to go a very different route, turning to one of film music's hottest properties Hildur Guðnadóttir instead. As film composers they could barely be more different - not just
- [Summer round-up: Barbenheimer etc](https://www.movie-wave.net/summer-round-up-barbenheimer-etc/) - 2023 will forever be remembered as being the year when - for the first time in the history of cinema - two quite different films aimed at quite different audiences were released on the same day as each other. It is hard to overstate just how hilarious this is and quite understandable why it inspired
- [The Gardener's Apprentice](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-gardeners-apprentice/) - MOVIE WAVE RECORDS PROUDLY ANNOUNCES A NEW ALBUM RELEASE:THE GARDENER'S APPRENTICE by composer SERVIS D'APARTMENT Album features music by acclaimed new composer - film generating buzz around the world - epic tale spanning generations - music inspired by Tár is already exciting renowned critics Servis D'Apartment was working as a surgeon when one day -
- [Deadly Blessing](https://www.movie-wave.net/deadly-blessing/) - Wes Craven's Deadly Blessing was about the only one of his first few films that didn't go on to become a cult favourite - ironic, given it's about a cult (well, kind of). A man is murdered after he decides to leave his Amish-type community to marry; his wife and her friends are then left
- [Dungeons and Dragons: Honour Among Thieves](https://www.movie-wave.net/dungeons-and-dragons-honour-among-thieves/) - I thought the latest cinematic attempt to do Dungeons and Dragons was really entertaining, really silly fun. Apparently it was a great big box office bomb though, despite taking a seemingly-respectable take, because it cost so much to make - I hope the studios take the right lesson from all the times this seems to
- [Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem](https://www.movie-wave.net/teenage-mutant-ninja-turtles-mutant-mayhem/) - The seventh theatrical TMNT movie, Mutant Mayhem is the first to be based on a true story, with the turtles fighting off some bad guys this time round. It is the third reboot of the series - the original trilogy of films were scored by John du Prez, whose birth name is Trevor Jones; then
- [A Symphonic Celebration](https://www.movie-wave.net/a-symphonic-celebration/) - Billed as the first in a series of releases under a new arrangement between composer Joe Hisaishi and elite label Deutsche Grammophon, A Symphonic Celebration explores the music of the famed composer for his most famous collaborator, the even more famed director Hayao Miyazaki, on the eve of the release of the latter's latest "final
- [Mission: Impossible - Fallout](https://www.movie-wave.net/mission-impossible-fallout/) - I remember when I was a boy, occasionally my parents would get themselves an Indian takeaway. I was always offered some and always declined. While I found the smell enticing, I found the prospect of spicy food to be a scary one indeed. I just knew how much I would hate it. One time I
- [Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny](https://www.movie-wave.net/indiana-jones-and-the-dial-of-destiny/) - If I ask you to cast your mind back to 1959, then chances are you can't, because you weren't born yet. (But hello to anyone reading this who was!) The year saw the USA gain its 49th and 50th states, it saw Fidel Castro become leader of Cuba, it saw the Dalai Lama flee Tibet
- [June round-up](https://www.movie-wave.net/june-round-up/) - June, in the northern hemisphere at least, features the year's longest day - clocking in at an impressive 24 hours. This gives all the more time for listening to soundtrack albums, or writing about them. Traditionally it sees some of the big movie hits of the summer season released, though it's fair to say that
- [Spring round-up](https://www.movie-wave.net/spring-round-up/) - Spring sprang a while ago - no doubt you remember all the little bunny rabbits bouncing around, and the beautiful lambs everywhere enjoying their short lives before being slaughtered. It's been a little while since I did a round-up (the last one covered the month of February, in fact) so I will for the purposes
- [Wild Isles](https://www.movie-wave.net/wild-isles/) - It's been a long time coming - so long that I assumed it wasn't going to happen - but one of my favourite musical partnerships has finally been reformed, with George Fenton making the return to BBC natural history documentaries. It's been 12 years since the last one (the incredible Frozen Planet) and it's fair
- [Eiffel](https://www.movie-wave.net/eiffel/) - Eiffel is a fictionalised romantic drama about Gustave Eiffel, whose name became synonymous with one of the great landmarks of the world, the Gustave Bridge. The French film was released in 2021 but despite featuring music by one of the world's leading film composers it didn't receive any sort of album release at the time,
- [January round-up](https://www.movie-wave.net/january-round-up/) - If you cast your mind back five days, you will return to the month of January, traditionally occurring early in the year. Of course, this statement only holds true at the time I'm writing this post, and will not be true again until 6 January 2024, which just goes to show the fleeting nature of
- [February round-up](https://www.movie-wave.net/february-round-up/) - February is the month of love, hosting as it does St Valentine's Day, the traditional festival of romance that bolsters the incomes of florists and chocolatiers the world over. Of course it is not just an opportunity to express our feelings for all those people we love, but also to all the new film music
- [Beyond the Screen](https://www.movie-wave.net/beyond-the-screen/) - Trailblazing composer Rachel Portman managed to build a hugely successful career in film music in an era when it was even more dominated by men than it is today, become the first female composer to win an Oscar in the process. Her trademark style of charming melodies has graced so many films over the years,
- [Bunker](https://www.movie-wave.net/bunker/) - Set during WWI, a group of soldiers holed up in a German bunker find themselves with a supernatural presence gradually turning them against each other. The horror film hasn't got great reviews but one thing everyone comments on is its fantastic score, by Andrew Morgan Smith. The composer says director Adrian Langley asked him to
- [The 13 Lords of the Shogun](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-13-lords-of-the-shogun/) - A Japanese tv historical drama, The 13 Lords of the Shogun ran throughout 2022. With 48 episodes - each lasting 45 minutes - it's quite the viewing commitment. I've absolutely no idea what it's about or what it's like - typical of the deep level of research I commit while writing this drivel - other
- [Athena](https://www.movie-wave.net/athena/) - A gripping, intense thriller directed by Romain Gavras, Athena is the sort of political cinema which sets minds and bodies stirring and was once far more common than today, from filmmakers like ‎Gillo Pontecorvo and Costa-Gavras. And, well, that's the second time I've used the name Gavras: the apple certainly didn't fall far from the
- [Off the beaten track, vol. 1](https://www.movie-wave.net/off-the-beaten-track-vol-1/) - One way a website like this can add value to the world is by pointing out hidden gems that might otherwise have passed people by. In this new series, I'll round up a handful of such albums that have come to my attention. I'll focus on stuff I like - there seems little point in
- [Oscar bait round-up](https://www.movie-wave.net/oscar-bait-round-up/) - It's that time of year again when everyone gives awards to each other (except the Grammys, whose very clear eligibility window runs from the third Sunday following Passover plus 75 days except in years where there's a general election in Belgium in which case you have to add on the fourth largest prime number less
- [Prancer: A Christmas Tale](https://www.movie-wave.net/prancer-a-christmas-tale/) - If this website serves any useful purpose at all, then surely that is to highlight music to people that they may like but hadn't considered hearing, or weren't aware of. All of us film music nerds have our lists of composers who we think - if only fate had intervened in a slightly different way,
- [The Fabelmans](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-fabelmans/) - Everything about the collaboration between Steven Spielberg and John Williams is extraordinary, really, including the numbers - fifty years (!) after their first film together comes their 29th (!) and their 31st collaboration overall. This time Spielberg finally makes the film he's been musing for decades, about himself (though I'm sure many of his previous
- [Overwhelm the Sky](https://www.movie-wave.net/overwhelm-the-sky/) - I often write about the music for films I haven't seen (which some people take great objection to - I'll take up that debate another time). Being the dedicated professional that I am, I usually research some movies at great length in a bid to be as informed as possible and capable of capturing the
- [Star Wars on tv](https://www.movie-wave.net/star-wars-on-tv/) - When Disney acquired Lucasfilm they must have been dreaming of all the big-screen adventures they could entice Star Wars fans to go and see, and sure enough the third Skywalker trilogy quickly went into production. They only managed two other movies though before deciding (rather bizarrely) that the market was saturated, and they could use
- [Black Adam](https://www.movie-wave.net/black-adam/) - There have been a few composers in the past where my opinion has changed over time - usually only up or down by a notch or two - rarely has one been so completely transformed in my estimation as Lorne Balfe. I hadn't used to be able to latch onto his music, for whatever reason,
- [Amsterdam](https://www.movie-wave.net/amsterdam/) - David O. Russell's first film since 2015, Amsterdam seems to be continuing the post-Covid trend of films which are not part of a big franchise ending up being seen as box office failures. I don't know - the expectation has been so firmly set by all the studios that all movies will be released onto
- [Werewolf by Night](https://www.movie-wave.net/werewolf-by-night/) - A welcome change of pace for the all-consuming Marvel Cinematic Universe, Werewolf by Night is a standalone short film released on Disney+ for Halloween. It's apparently set in the modern day, but is directed in a stylised way to evoke monster movies of the 1950s with theatrical acting (especially from Harriet Sansom Harris), it's shot
- [The Lost King](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-lost-king/) - Richard III is not just notable for inspiring a great piece of Cockney rhyming slang, he was also (I suppose) worthy of note as the last of the Plantagenet line of English monarchs before being slaughtered by Henry VII who started us off with the Tudors. In 2012, his remains were found underneath a car
- [Rudy](https://www.movie-wave.net/rudy/) - While famed for his science fiction music, his horror music, his action music - well, basically all his music - there's no doubt that the sort of film Jerry Goldsmith most enjoyed scoring was none of the above. Particularly later in his career, he loved doing films about people - and having the chance in
- [Summer round-up, part two](https://www.movie-wave.net/summer-round-up-part-two/) - I should note that my definition of "summer" is somewhat flexible, and its boundaries are sufficient to include all the film scores I mention herewith. I draw special attention to the fact that all the composers whose works are discussed are British - not my intention when I set out writing this, so perhaps it
- [One Day](https://www.movie-wave.net/one-day/) - Rachel Portman doesn't get the credit she deserves - and I mean from me. I was (for reasons unknown even to myself) looking back on my reviews of her music - the few I have written, anyway - and particularly the older ones I was continually just saying it was all pleasant and interchangeable. Indeed,
- [Pinocchio](https://www.movie-wave.net/pinocchio/) - These Disney "live action" remakes continue apace, with Pinocchio getting reviews that are - even by the standards of these things - truly dire. I have to say, I couldn't bring myself to watch it. Is Pinocchio supposed to look like a "live action" object? Or is he supposed to be an animated character somehow
- [Summer round-up, part one](https://www.movie-wave.net/summer-round-up-part-one/) - I've not written many reviews of the big summer scores (if there are "big summer scores" any more) so here's a round-up of my brief views on some of them. It feels like he's had a new score out every week or so, but actually only two of them here are albums featuring music by
- [No (more) stars](https://www.movie-wave.net/no-more-stars/) - Somebody noticed that yesterday's post about The Rings of Power did not include a star rating. Most of the time when it appears that I have forgotten something, it's because I've forgotten something, but this was deliberate. It just feels a bit too arbitrary. It always has, really, but I've done it anyway because it's
- [The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-lord-of-the-rings-the-rings-of-power/) - Like a load of other people, I watched the first couple of episodes of The Rings of Power yesterday. I didn't know what to expect, going in - and I enjoyed it, a lot. We all know how much the thing has cost and there's no way it will "make money" (whatever that means to
- [Change is afoot](https://www.movie-wave.net/change-is-afoot/) - You may - or may not - have noticed that posts here have become a lot less frequent of late. There are numerous reasons for this, ranging from a general shrinking in my enthusiasm for new film music through to a continued loss of enthusiasm for writing about it following last year's rather less-than-warm feedback
- [Jurassic World: Dominion](https://www.movie-wave.net/jurassic-world-dominion/) - Composed by Michael Giacchino Concluding the Chris Pratt trilogy, Jurassic World: Dominion also concludes the entire Jurassic saga if the PR is to be believed. I know this is crazy but I just can't help but predict that we'll be back here in a few years. This time round, some ill-advised corporate greed ends up
- [Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness](https://www.movie-wave.net/doctor-strange-in-the-multiverse-of-madness/) - Composed by Danny Elfman My problem with Doctor Strange as a character in a film is that because he can seemingly do just about anything at any time, I struggle really to see how you can eke much drama out of him. His second outing with his name on the poster attempts to solve this
- [Ambulance](https://www.movie-wave.net/ambulance/) - Composed by Lorne Balfe Never before has a composer been so absolutely transformed in my estimation as Lorne Balfe has in the last few years. With his great fantasy music for His Dark Materials on tv, one of the Marvel Cinematic Universe's finest scores for Black Widow, and his riveting action music for the most
- [Operation Mincemeat](https://www.movie-wave.net/operation-mincemeat/) - Composed by Thomas Newman Based on an intelligence operation performed late in WWII by the British to fool the Germans into thinking they were planning to invade Greece (rather than Sicily) - with a fictional love triangle thrown in for good measure - John Madden's Operation Mincemeat has attracted reasonable reviews and offered the director
- [Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers](https://www.movie-wave.net/chip-n-dale-rescue-rangers/) - Composed by Brian Tyler The live action / animation hybrid Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers is about as subversive a movie as could be made in the corporate Disney+ umbrella, quite entertaining and sometimes amusing, with a large amount of IP on display for you to point at. Providing the music is Brian Tyler, always
- [Notre-Dame Brûle](https://www.movie-wave.net/notre-dame-brule/) - Composed by Simon Franglen Directed by Jean-Jacques Annaud, Notre-Dame Brûle (a French phrase that even I can translate) tells the story of the fire in Paris's iconic cathedral. While his films have tended to fall somewhat below the radar of late, there's no doubting Annaud's ability to create a visual spectacle - nor indeed his
- [Broken Keys](https://www.movie-wave.net/broken-keys/) - Composed by Gabriel Yared A pianist has to flee his home town after it is taken over by ISIS who ban all music in Broken Keys, a Lebanese film. In the process his piano is shot and he literally has to repair the broken keys, amid great danger. Gabriel Yared was born in Lebanon himself
- [Beyond the Summit](https://www.movie-wave.net/beyond-the-summit/) - Composed by Paula Olaz A Spanish film about a man who suffers an accident on the first day of his attempt to climb Annapurna and the relationship that develops with the woman who rescues and cares for him, while he obsesses with resuming his ascent, Beyond the Summit has had only a limited cinema release
- [The Sound of Violet](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-sound-of-violet/) - Composed by Conrad Pope Written and directed by Allen Wolf, The Sound of Violet concerns the relationship between an autistic man who believes the woman he is dating loves him - not realising that she is in fact a prostitute. They both see the potential in the relationship, but for wildly differing reasons. The score
- [Turning Red](https://www.movie-wave.net/turning-red/) - Composed by Ludwig Göransson The latest straight-to-streaming Pixar movie, Turning Red is another bold and different movie from the studio, in which a young Canadian girl of Chinese heritage discovers that when she's angry she turns into a giant red panda. And she's angry quite a lot, but not when she's listening to her favourite
- [Moonfall](https://www.movie-wave.net/moonfall/) - Composed by Thomas Wander & Harald Kloser Remember when Roland Emmerich movies used to be good? No, neither do I. I have to say though that his previous one, Midway - a disaster movie of a very different kind to his usual - was actually very well done. He returns to his usual kind of
- [Uncharted](https://www.movie-wave.net/uncharted/) - Composed by Ramin Djawadi Continuing the long-established trend of movies based on video games being released to critical acclaim, Uncharted has set the box office alight with its tale of a grouchy archaeologist (played by veteran British character actor Tom Hollander) scouring the world in search of the ark of the covenant proving to be
- [The Batman](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-batman/) - Composed by Michael Giacchino Four notes. Relentless. Aggressive. Dah-dah-dah-DAAAHHH. (Apologies to less technically-inclined musicians for introducing such complex notation so early on.) Sometimes keyboards. Sometimes growling brass. Sometimes just the timpani. But always: four notes. The four stages of a bat: birth, early life, later life, death. One note for each. The first three -
- [Griminelli Plays Morricone](https://www.movie-wave.net/griminelli-plays-morricone/) - Composed by Ennio Morricone Flute virtuoso Andrea Griminelli has been one of Italy's classical music superstars for decades now. Amongst his prior performances was the première of Ennio Morricone's flute concerto a number of years ago, and now he has released a tribute album to the legendary film composer. It is very much a "crossover"
- [Ennio Morricone: Piano Music](https://www.movie-wave.net/ennio-morricone-piano-music/) - Composed by Ennio Morricone The acclaimed pianist Roberto Prosseda became one of numerous artists to record tributes to the great Ennio Morricone following his death in 2020. This solo piano album presents some of the composer's "absolute music" (as he always called it) alongside piano transcriptions of various film themes. While it is not the
- [Il Volo Sings Morricone](https://www.movie-wave.net/il-volo-sings-morricone/) - Composed by Ennio Morricone There have been various vocal compilations of Ennio Morricone songs over the years from a vast range of vocalists; the pick of them, inevitably, is when the Maestro himself was involved and my favourite of all was Focus, a collection sung by the great Portuguese singer Dulce Pontes. In tribute to
- [Encanto](https://www.movie-wave.net/encanto/) - Score by Germaine Franco Songs by Lin-Manuel Miranda An extremely colourful and beautifully-designed film, Encanto is an interesting contrast to the usual Disney formula. The "hero" is not a princess, doesn't have magical powers - indeed, nicely, she is the only member of her family who doesn't - there isn't really a "villain" at all
- [The Wheel of Time](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-wheel-of-time/) - Composed by Lorne Balfe Based on Robert Jordan's series of fantasy novels, The Wheel of Time is Amazon's high-profile grab at a Game of Thrones or Lord of the Rings-sized audience. The familiar tropes are there - a group of ordinary people plucked from their lives to fulfil an epic quest, assisted by magic and
- [The Power of the Dog](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-power-of-the-dog/) - Composed by Jonny Greenwood We have seen it before, of course - the two asteroid movies, Deep Impact and Armageddon; the two anthropomorphic small insect movies, A Bug's Life and Antz - and now 2021 sees two movies about canine hijinks released shortly after one another, with The Power of the Dog following a few
- [Eternals](https://www.movie-wave.net/eternals/) - Composed by Ramin Djawadi 2021's third Marvel movie, Eternals introduces a whole host of new characters to take part in the endless fight between good and evil. They've evidently been biding their time up until now. Interestingly, all three of these movies have been met with somewhat lukewarm receptions - not just from critics (it
- [The Tamarind Seed](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-tamarind-seed/) - Composed by John Barry A romantic spy adventure, The Tamarind Seed stars Julie Andrews and Omar Sharif as lovers on opposite sides of the Cold War. Director Blake Edwards was famous of course for his collaborations with the great Henry Mancini, but he did deviate on occasion - and for a spy adventure in the
- [The French Dispatch](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-french-dispatch/) - Composed by Alexandre Desplat The latest from the brilliant Wes Anderson, The French Dispatch is set in the French office of the Liberty-Kansas Evening Sun, soon to close following the death of its editor. All the usual suspects are there, including Anderson's regular composer Alexandre Desplat, who finds a way in these films to bring
- [Red Notice](https://www.movie-wave.net/red-notice/) - Composed by Steve Jablonsky A Netflix action comedy, Red Notice very boldly makes no attempt to hide its inspirations from Indiana Jones to True Lies (amongst many others) - bold, because if that's what you're going to force yourself to be compared with, you'd better be good. It isn't very good, wasting the charisma of
- [Army of Thieves](https://www.movie-wave.net/army-of-thieves/) - Composed by Hans Zimmer and Steve Mazzaro Telling the backstory of the safecracker character from Army of the Dead (which was only released a few months ago itself), Army of Thieves is a reasonably enjoyable action comedy directed by its star Matthias Schweighöfer. His character joins a team looking to break into the four "Wagner
- [The Curse of Turandot](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-curse-of-turandot/) - Composed by Simon Franglen Adapted from Puccini's opera, The Curse of Turandot is a Chinese romantic fantasy about a cursed princess and the prince who tries to lift that curse. Directed by Xiaolong Zheng and starring Xiaotong Guan and Dylan Sprause, the film didn't get particularly good reviews when it was released in China a
- [The Last Duel](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-last-duel/) - Composed by Harry Gregson-Williams Ridley Scott's best-reviewed film in quite a while, The Last Duel nevertheless struggled to find much of an audience at cinemas. Ostensibly an historical drama, the film is quite clearly a commentary on the struggles that women continue to face when the victim of sexual violence; Matt Damon and Adam Driver
- [Cliffs of Freedom](https://www.movie-wave.net/cliffs-of-freedom/) - Composed by George Kallis An historical romantic epic resetting the Romeo and Juliet story in the 19th century Greek war of independence against the Ottomans, Cliffs of Freedom stars Tania Raymonde and Jan Uddin as the lovers cast apart on opposite sides of the conflict. It was directed by Van Ling, better-known as a visual
- [The Starling](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-starling/) - Composed by Benjamin Wallfisch I haven't seen The Starling - I had intended to, but the reviews put me off - it's usually referred to as a "comedy drama" and its plot surrounds a couple who lose their tiny baby to SIDS and then see their mental health collapse. It's hard to see the comedy
- [Free Guy](https://www.movie-wave.net/free-guy/) - Composed by Christophe Beck Shawn Levy's Free Guy is mostly set within a video game, in which a non-playable character, Guy (Ryan Reynolds), gradually comes to realise what he is and gains sentience; back in the real world, there's a bit of a kerfuffle about who owns the code. It seems to have been a
- [Infinite](https://www.movie-wave.net/infinite/) - Composed by Harry Gregson-Williams I usually start these things with a little description of the film, but even though I've seen Infinite I haven't got a clue what it's about. Something to do with resurrection (I did get that much) and Mark Wahlberg trying to find an egg in order to save all life on
- [No Time to Die](https://www.movie-wave.net/no-time-to-die/) - Composed by Hans Zimmer The Daniel Craig set of Bond films reaches its conclusion in the long-awaited No Time to Die, originally scheduled for release during the Neolithic period (or at least, it feels that way). There won't be any spoilers for the film in this piece - but I will say I found it
- [Foundation: Season 1](https://www.movie-wave.net/foundation-season-1/) - Composed by Bear McCreary Based on Isaac Asimov's classic science fiction stories (the first volume of which is seventy years old!), Foundation is the latest attempt to "find the new Game of Thrones", this one by Apple. I'm not sure they've come close to doing that (for good or bad) but the flawed show does
- [Live event today](https://www.movie-wave.net/live-event-today/) - I'll be taking part in a conversation later today with Jon Broxton, Christian Clemmensen, Christopher Coleman and Erik Woods to talk about our 25 years of writing and broadcasting about film music online. (25 years!) The great Tim Burden will be moderating. It would be wonderful if you could join us. The event starts at
- [Dune](https://www.movie-wave.net/dune/) - Composed by Hans Zimmer The notoriously "unfilmable" Dune is a classic of science fiction, and the arrival of Dennis Villeneuve's adaptation means it has in fact now been filmed three times (well, two-and-a-half, given he's only tackled the first half of it - so far). David Lynch's version is of course notorious, and I'm not
- [Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings](https://www.movie-wave.net/shang-chi-and-the-legend-of-the-ten-rings/) - Composed by Joel P. West The Marvel Cinematic Universe heads east in Shang-Chi, its latest comic book hero providing an opportunity for the studio to showcase some Chinese action stylings with one of the more obscure lead characters so far. Director Destin Daniel Cretton's film has been well-received by audiences and I'm sure we'll be
- [Chouans!](https://www.movie-wave.net/chouans/) - Composed by Georges Delerue Directed by Philippe de Broca and starring Sophie Marceau, Philippe Noiret and Lambert Wilson, Chouans! is an historical epic set during the French Revolution. Marceau's two best friends find themselves on opposing sides of the conflict and she is left to choose between them. The film was the seventeenth (!) and
- [Regarding Henry](https://www.movie-wave.net/regarding-henry/) - Composed by Georges Delerue Starring Harrison Ford at the peak of his popularity, directed by the great Mike Nichols, one of the first films written by future star J.J. Abrams - surely a film about which all that holds true must have been a blockbuster success. Well no, not Regarding Henry, which was in fact
- [A Show of Force](https://www.movie-wave.net/a-show-of-force/) - Composed by Georges Delerue A political thriller directed by Bruce Barreto, A Show of Force is loosely based on real events and follows a journalist investigating the death of a couple of political activists in Puerto Rico. The government claimed they were radical terrorists - others took a different view. Amy Irving stars alongside Andy
- [Black Robe](https://www.movie-wave.net/black-robe/) - Composed by Georges Delerue A sort of cross between The Mission and Dances With Wolves, Bruce Beresford's Black Robe follows a Jesuit missionary trekking across hundreds of miles of 17th century Canadian wilderness in an attempt to found a mission and do what he saw as the good work. Receiving much critical acclaim at the
- [Rich in Love](https://www.movie-wave.net/rich-in-love/) - Composed by Georges Delerue A coming-of-age drama set around unfolding family drama, Bruce Beresford's Rich in Love stars Albert Finney as the father of a family rocked when his wife suddenly leaves him and severs all ties, leaving his daughter to care for him and discover all sorts of family secrets. Despite garnering decent reviews
- [La Fine Fleur](https://www.movie-wave.net/la-fine-fleur/) - Composed by Mathieu Lamboley A small-scale French comedy set in the cutthroat world of growing roses, and an unofficial sequel to the wildly popular The Reasonable Horticulturalist, La Fine Fleur stars Catherine Frot as a rose-grower whose farm is under threat from a local competitor - the sordid world of Big Horticulture. The absolutely charming
- [Love Field](https://www.movie-wave.net/love-field/) - Composed by Jerry Goldsmith Jonathan Kaplan's Love Field deals with prejudice on several levels as a Texan woman, dismissed as white trailer trash, and a black man travel across America against the backdrop of the Kennedy assassination (she is going to Washington DC to attend the president's funeral). It prompted decent performances from Michelle Pfeiffer and Dennis
- [The Public Eye](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-public-eye/) - Composed by Jerry Goldsmith Starring Joe Pesci in a rare outing as a leading man, The Public Eye sees him playing a crime photographer in the 1940s who finds himself tangled up in a murder investigation after he gets involved with the widow of a nightclub owner (Barbara Hershey). With supporting turns from Stanley Tucci
- [Shamus](https://www.movie-wave.net/shamus/) - Composed by Jerry Goldsmith Burt Reynolds plays a very low-rent private eye in Shamus, a little-remembered 1973 comedy thriller directed by the wonderfully-named Buzz Kulik. Alongside Reynolds as Shamus, Dyan Cannon stars as Alexis Montaigne, and of course romance blooms; and there are seasoned character actors offering support like John Ryan as an ex-army officer
- [Minamata](https://www.movie-wave.net/minamata/) - Composed by Ryuichi Sakamoto Based on the ecological disaster in the Japanese town of Minamata, in which toxic chemicals being poured into local waterways from a factory over several decades led to huge numbers of local citizens suffering from mercury poisoning, Minamata stars Johnny Depp as photojournalist Eugene Smith and reportedly for that reason -
- [Jungle Cruise](https://www.movie-wave.net/jungle-cruise/) - Composed by James Newton Howard Disney's track record of adapting its theme park attractions into movies might politely be described as "mixed", with only Pirates of the Caribbean having been successful (it's best not to think too much about Haunted Mansion and Tomorrowland) but it always seemed that Jungle Cruise was likely to hit the
- [Black Widow](https://www.movie-wave.net/black-widow/) - Composed by Lorne Balfe Hollywood Records / 80m After its Covid-induced absence from cinemas for a couple of years, the Marvel Cinematic Universe juggernaut gets back on the road in Black Widow, Cate Shortland's film giving Scarlett Johansson's character the spotlight for once (she's appeared in about seven hundred of the previous films in the
- [The Tomorrow War](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-tomorrow-war/) - Composed by Lorne Balfe Milan / 76m When humans come back from the future to recruit some help to defeat alien invaders, Chris Pratt steps up. The Tomorrow War collects numerous artefacts from other, similar movies along the way and it's got gaping holes in its logic, but it's been successful enough for Amazon for
- [Mosca Addio](https://www.movie-wave.net/mosca-addio/) - Composed by Ennio Morricone EMI / 39m Mosca Addio is a biopic of Ida Nudel, a campaigner for Jewish rights in Soviet Russia who was exiled from her home in Moscow to a remote village in Siberia. She was finally granted her wish - to be allowed to leave for Israel - in 1987, just
- [Lupin](https://www.movie-wave.net/lupin/) - Composed by Mathieu Lamboley Milan / 34m + 36m An exceptionally entertaining French series, Lupin is possibly the most consistently-impressive Netflix original series I've seen yet. Set in Paris, Omar Sy stars as the lead character Assane Diop, out for revenge against the wealthy industrialist Hubert Pellegrini (Hervé Pierre) whom Diop blames for the death
- [James Horner Review Odyssey](https://www.movie-wave.net/james-horner-review-odyssey/) - Like many others, I was affected by James Horner's death and touched by the various tributes paid by his friends, colleagues, collaborators and fans. There is little I can do in the way of tribute other than write about his music - and it strikes me that the body of work he developed over his
- [Enemy at the Gates](https://www.movie-wave.net/enemy-at-the-gates/) - Composed by James Horner Sony Classical / 77m Set during the horrors of the battle of Stalingrad, Jean-Jacques Annaud's Enemy at the Gates focuses on a personal battle between two snipers - the Russian Vasily Zaitsev (Jude Law) and the German Erwin König (Ed Harris). It's based on real people and events but highly-dramatised -
- [Army of the Dead](https://www.movie-wave.net/army-of-the-dead/) - Composed by Tom Holkenborg Milan / 49m No sooner did the dust settle on his version of Justice League than here's Zack Snyder again, this time with a return of sorts to his roots, a zombie movie for Netflix. Dave Bautista stars in Army of the Dead, leading a group on a heist of a
- [Spotlight on John Williams](https://www.movie-wave.net/spotlight-on-john-williams/) - Composed by John Williams Prospero / 100m I haven't got all the numbers in front of me, but my statistical instincts strongly suggest that John Williams is surely the most-recorded film composer. Alongside all the many albums conducted by the man himself lie a plethora of others performed by ensembles ranging from the sublime to
- [Senior Moment](https://www.movie-wave.net/senior-moment/) - Composed by Laura Karpman MovieScore Media / 39m A romantic comedy starring William Shatner and Jean Smart, Senior Moment was filmed in 2017 but is only now being released (not generally a good sign). But whatever the fate of the film, we can all enjoy Laura Karpman's surprising score, which sounds like classic comedy caper
- [Lionheart](https://www.movie-wave.net/lionheart/) - Composed by Jerry Goldsmith Varèse Sarabande / 83m Franklin Schaffner's directorial career had been on a downward spiral for a while when he made Lionheart, his penultimate film. It was a bit of a disaster all round, released in cinemas very briefly in Canada but nowhere else, finally surfacing on home video later on to
- [Along Came a Spider](https://www.movie-wave.net/along-came-a-spider/) - Composed by Jerry Goldsmith Varèse Sarabande / 66m Along Came a Spider was the second movie starring Morgan Freeman as James Patterson's master detective Alex Cross (after Kiss the Girls). Given how wildly popular the books are it's a bit of a surprise that the movies haven't ever really taken off - a more recent
- [Zack Snyder's Justice League](https://www.movie-wave.net/zack-snyders-justice-league/) - Composed by Tom Holkenborg WaterTower / 234m In the end, the Snyder Cut was released, to great fanfare. While opinions varied on the final product, most agreed it was superior to the version of Justice League that had been released in cinemas four years earlier, and for what it's worth (i.e. not much) I found
- [Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom](https://www.movie-wave.net/indiana-jones-and-the-temple-of-doom/) - Composed by John Williams Concord / 75m Long trailing in popularity behind the two movies either side of it in the original Indiana Jones trilogy, I think time has been very kind to The Temple of Doom, which is a first-rate piece of entertainment full of the action thrills you'd expect and no shortage of
- [Justice League](https://www.movie-wave.net/justice-league/) - Composed by Danny Elfman WaterTower / 2017 / 101m The films in this DC series have been generally disliked by audiences and critics so far but have made a lot of money, so on they go, with the big one bringing the characters together having arrived in the form of Justice League. Based on a
- [The Peacemaker](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-peacemaker/) - Composed by Hans Zimmer La-La Land Records / 2014 / 152m (score 93m) After Dreamworks SKG was launched to great fanfare, its first movie release was an escapist action thriller, 1997's The Peacemaker, starring George Clooney and Nicole Kidman trying to save the world from some rogue Russian army officers who steal some nuclear bombs. Director Mimi Leder made
- [Dunkirk](https://www.movie-wave.net/dunkirk/) - Composed by Hans Zimmer WaterTower / 2017 / 60m Christopher Nolan's latest choice of project surprised many - Dunkirk follows the events of Operation Dynamo in which hundreds of thousands of Allied soldiers were almost miraculously evacuated from the town in northern France. At first it seems quite an about-turn for the director but he
- [Inferno](https://www.movie-wave.net/inferno/) - Composed by Hans Zimmer Sony Classical / 2016 / 70m The Da Vinci Code phenomenon a few years ago extended to Ron Howard's film being hugely successful even though it wasn't very good, which led to Dan Brown's previous entry in the series Angels and Demons not long after. It was slightly better but when
- [Blade Runner 2049](https://www.movie-wave.net/blade-runner-2049/) - Review of the Blade Runner 2049 soundtrack by Hans Zimmer and Benjamin Wallfisch
- [Hans Zimmer - The Classics](https://www.movie-wave.net/hans-zimmer-the-classics/) - Composed by Hans Zimmer Sony Classical / 58m An interesting concept for an album, Hans Zimmer - The Classics offers new arrangements of various pieces by the composer, interpreted by various classical and crossover artists contracted to Sony Classical, accompanied in most cases by the Czech Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by frequent Zimmer collaborator Gavin Greenaway.
- [The Amazing Spider-Man 2](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-amazing-spider-man-2/) - Composed by Hans Zimmer Columbia / 2014 / 115m Marc Webb was a slightly surprising choice to make The Amazing Spider-Man, an indie director with a solitary "hit" to his name, but he delivered a solid comic book caper that for me at least was the most satisfying film so far featuring that character, fresh
- [Interstellar](https://www.movie-wave.net/interstellar/) - Composed by Hans Zimmer WaterTower Music / 2014 / 72m (regular release) Christopher Nolan's latest is his attempt to make a science fiction film of meaning, a 2001 for this generation perhaps, with life on earth reaching its end due to overpopulation and humanity needing to find a new home. Matthew McConaughey plays a former pilot
- [The House of the Spirits](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-house-of-the-spirits/) - Composed by Hans Zimmer Virgin Movie Music / 1993 / 44m An epic telling the story of several generations of a Chilean family through the second half of the 20th century, against the backdrop of the revolution, The House of the Spirits attracted good reviews but not much of an audience upon its release in
- [Seven Worlds One Planet](https://www.movie-wave.net/seven-worlds-one-planet/) - Composed by Jacob Shea Silva Screen / 79m Every year a new one of these comes out and every year I wonder if this is the time they've run out of new things to show us. But no, not yet - Seven Worlds One Planet is another genuinely stunning BBC natural history documentary, David Attenborough
- [Wonder Woman 1984](https://www.movie-wave.net/wonder-woman-1984/) - Composed by Hans Zimmer Watertower / 90m Widely praised as the best film (by a distance) in the DC Extended Universe, Patty Jenkins managed to inject some much-needed life into the series with Wonder Woman in 2017, Gal Gadot taking on probably the most iconic female comic book character. A sequel was inevitable and here
- [Hillbilly Elegy](https://www.movie-wave.net/hillbilly-elegy/) - Composed by Hans Zimmer and David Fleming Milan / 42m Ron Howard's Hillbilly Elegy is an adaptation of J.D. Vance's memoir, starring Gabriel Basso as Vance, who has to return home to his family in Ohio from college to deal with a family emergency. Hans Zimmer returns to work with Howard yet again (it is
- [Dark Phoenix](https://www.movie-wave.net/dark-phoenix/) - Composed by Hans Zimmer Fox Music / 68m X-Men: The Last Stand was not received well at all in 2006, and after it was rather conveniently erased from the timeline of this film series in a later instalment, the filmmakers had the chance to do it again and so Dark Phoenix was born to conclude
- [Rebuilding Paradise](https://www.movie-wave.net/rebuilding-paradise/) - Composed by Hans Zimmer and Lorne Balfe Lakeshore / 35m A National Geographic documentary directed by Ron Howard, Rebuilding Paradise tells the story of exactly that - the rebuilding of the town of Paradise in California following its virtual complete destruction in the 2018 wildfires. Hans Zimmer is firmly established as Howard's composer-of-choice, scoring most
- [The World of Hans Zimmer](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-world-of-hans-zimmer/) - Composed by Hans Zimmer Sony Classical / 117m Hans Zimmer went on tour with a small band a few years ago, to the delight of his fans; shortly thereafter his music went on tour again, this time under the name of "The World of Hans Zimmer" and performed with a full orchestra. The former tour
- [Rush](https://www.movie-wave.net/rush/) - Composed by Hans Zimmer Water Tower / 2013 / 65m Motor racing has never translated quite so well into "inspiring Hollywood sports movie" as some other sports - there have been a few high-profile efforts along the way (John Frankenheimer's Grand Prix, Le Mans with Steve McQueen, Tony Scott's risible but successful Days of Thunder)
- [Chappie](https://www.movie-wave.net/chappie/) - Composed by Hans Zimmer Varèse Sarabande / 2015 / 64m Set in the near future, Chappie sees the Johannesburg police department deploying robots to help tackle the high crime rate. Since they couldn't be called robo-cops due to copyright reasons, one of them - programmed to mimic human emotions - was named instead after a type of
- [Freeheld](https://www.movie-wave.net/freeheld/) - Composed by Hans Zimmer and Johnny Marr WaterTower Music / 2015 / 28m Based on a true story and a 2007 documentary short of the same name, Freeheld stars Julianne Moore as a police officer in New Jersey who, after being diagnosed with terminal cancer, undergoes a tough battle to allow her pension benefits to transfer
- [Kung Fu Panda 3](https://www.movie-wave.net/kung-fu-panda-3/) - Composed by Hans Zimmer Sony Classical / 2016 / 69m The third entry in the apparently six-part Kung Fu Panda series continues the telling of the true story of Po, who meets his biological father only after seeing his dumpling-eating record beaten by him and then battles a spirit warrior (J.K. Simmons) who returns to
- [The Lion King](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-lion-king/) - Composed by Hans Zimmer Songs by Elton John and Tim Rice Walt Disney Records / 2014 / 121m The extraordinary Disney revival of the early 1990s after a long time in the doldrums was fuelled by Alan Menken's music to such an extent that it was quite a shock when the musical team behind The Lion King was announced
- [Man of Steel](https://www.movie-wave.net/man-of-steel/) - Composed by Hans Zimmer Sony Classical / 2013 / 118m (regular edition 88m) The most-hyped film of the year is finally here - after months of publicity, Zack Snyder's Superman reboot Man of Steel has been released (to fairly lukewarm reviews, it has to be said). Henry Cavill takes on the most iconic of comic book
- [The Lone Ranger](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-lone-ranger/) - Composed by Hans Zimmer Walt Disney Records / 2013 / 50m It couldn't go wrong - it just couldn't go wrong. Disney entered into guaranteed box office gold territory with The Lone Ranger, from the creative team behind Pirates of the Caribbean - director Gore Verbinski, 80s pop star MC Hammer - you can't touch
- [Beyond Rangoon](https://www.movie-wave.net/beyond-rangoon/) - Composed by Hans Zimmer Milan / 1995 / 39m A tense political thriller directed by John Boorman, Beyond Rangoon sees an American tourist (played by Patricia Arquette) forced to go on the run in Burma after becoming separated from her tour group and then witnessing various acts of violent repression by the government. (Just in
- [Madagascar 3: Europe's Most Wanted](https://www.movie-wave.net/madagascar-3-europes-most-wanted/) - Composed by Hans Zimmer Interscope Records / 2012 / 38:39 (score 17:36) DreamWorks Animation's popular Madagascar series continues with Europe's Most Wanted, its third theatrically-released instalment. Even by this studio's standards I thought the pop culture jabs and snarks of the first film were pretty scurrilous stuff, so haven't revisited the franchise since then, but
- [Kung Fu Panda 2](https://www.movie-wave.net/kung-fu-panda-2/) - Composed by Hans Zimmer and John Powell Varèse Sarabande / 2011 / 64:20 A reasonably entertaining film at the higher end of the Dreamworks Animation range, Kung Fu Panda grossed an absolute fortune at the box office in 2008 so sequels were inevitable. The first of them has now arrived. Once again, John Powell teams
- [Rango](https://www.movie-wave.net/rango/) - Composed by Hans Zimmer Anti Records / 2011 / 34:18 An animated western from director Gore Verbinski, Rango features the voice of Johnny Depp and has generally been praised as something different. Hans Zimmer is no stranger to animation, nor to Verbinski, so it was no surprise to see his name attached to the film.
- [Inception](https://www.movie-wave.net/inception/) - Composed by Hans Zimmer Watertower Music / 2010 / 49:13 It's fair to say that I've not been the biggest fan of music in Christopher Nolan's films so far. As he moved into the big time, the bland music provided by David Julyan in his earlier films was "upgraded" to equally bland music provided by
- [Megamind](https://www.movie-wave.net/megamind/) - Composed by Hans Zimmer and Lorne Balfe Lakeshore Records LKS 341992 / 2010 / 48:10 Dreamworks Animation have decided to take a completely new tack with Megamind, an animation with a cynical mind and which is full of pop culture references which will render the thing unwatchable before long. Oh, wait, that's just like almost
- [Henri 4](https://www.movie-wave.net/henry-4/) - Composed by Hans Zimmer and Henry Jackman Sony Classical 7659342 / 2010 / 61:19 Hans Zimmer does crop up in the most unexpected places; and seeing his name attached to this German film about the 16th century French King Henri IV is most unexpected! The film was briefly released in cinemas in Germany and has
- [Sherlock Holmes](https://www.movie-wave.net/sherlock-holmes-2/) - Composed by Hans Zimmer Sony Classical 88697630662 / 2010 / 52:29 It's fair to say that Guy Ritchie's career didn't go quite as well as expected after the success of Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels and his subsequent marriage to, and divorce from, Madonna. Things seem to have got rather back on track with his
- [It's Complicated](https://www.movie-wave.net/its-complicated/) - Composed by Hans Zimmer and Heitor Pereira Back Lot Music download / 2009 / 16:52 One genre in which Hans Zimmer has written consistently impressive scores is the comedy. While many film composers - even A-grade ones - struggle to find the right tone, Zimmer has written excellent music for films like As Good as it
- [Tomb Raider](https://www.movie-wave.net/tomb-raider/) - Composed by Tom Holkenborg Sony Classical / 72m Most films based on video games are cinematic masterpieces and the two Tomb Raider films which starred Angelina Jolie are no exception. I remember both of them - they starred Angelina Jolie and, oh wait, I don't remember anything else. (OK, I remember that bit when she
- [Terminator: Dark Fate](https://www.movie-wave.net/terminator-dark-fate/) - Composed by Tom Holkenborg Paramount / 58m Long after all other life on earth has been extinguished, I suspect come summertime there will be a new Rambo movie ("definitely the last one" says Stallone) followed a few weeks later by a new Terminator movie (it is already impossible to tell whether Schwarzenegger is still a
- [The Dark Tower](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-dark-tower/) - Composed by Tom Holkenborg Sony Classical / 2017 / 67m Long in development, Stephen King's The Dark Tower has finally made it to cinemas in 2017, directed by Nikolaj Arcel (J.J. Abrams and Ron Howard having previously been attached). It ended up being a continuation of the series of novels, incorporating elements from various entries
- [Deadpool](https://www.movie-wave.net/deadpool/) - Composed by Tom Holkenborg Milan / 2016 / 68m Set in the X-Men universe, Deadpool has been many years in development and finally here starring Ryan Reynolds in the title role. Director Tim Miller's film has attracted some attention thanks to its humour and breaking of the fourth wall, not to mention its foul-mouthed screenplay, and
- [Mad Max: Fury Road](https://www.movie-wave.net/mad-max-fury-road/) - Composed by Tom Holkenborg WaterTower Music / 2015 / 125m After years stuck in development hell, George Miller's fourth Mad Max movie has finally arrived. It's been knocking around for so long, Mel Gibson was originally going to be in it (it was pre-meltdown), but when production finally got underway it was with a new (and possibly
- [Gemini Man](https://www.movie-wave.net/gemini-man/) - Composed by Lorne Balfe Paramount / 62m A just-retired hit man faces a battle against a clone of his younger self in Ang Lee's Gemini Man. (Yes, Ang Lee's.) Said hit man is played by Will Smith and said clone is also played by Will Smith and he's always watchable but that's about the best

- [Pacific Rim Uprising](https://www.movie-wave.net/pacific-rim-uprising/) - Composed by Lorne Balfe Milan / 76m Guillermo del Toro's Pacific Rim didn't break any new ground but it was an entertaining spectacle and I guess its success meant a sequel was inevitable. There's no del Toro this time, with tv producer Steven S. DeKnight making his cinematic debut, and all the predictable things happen
- [The Hurricane Heist](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-hurricane-heist/) - Composed by Lorne Balfe Filmtrax / 42m A heist takes place in a hurricane in Rob Cohen's latest film, The Hurricane Heist.

- [12 Strong](https://www.movie-wave.net/12-strong/) - Composed by Lorne Balfe WaterTower / 71m To suggest that Hans Zimmer is the most influential film composer of his generation is probably as uncontroversial as it gets; in recent years, particular influence seems to have been exerted by his scores for Christopher Nolan films.

- [The end of an error](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-end-of-an-error/) - It's not quite the end of an era, but certainly the end of an error. I'll be on hiatus for a while. The web hosting is funded until June so I'll make a decision later about whether to keep it here or not, but for a while I'll not be posting any more. In the

- [Soul Snatcher](https://www.movie-wave.net/soul-snatcher/) - Composed by Joe Hisaishi Universal / 79m I often write about soundtrack albums from films I haven't seen and offer a cursory plot description as an introduction - often I know broadly what the film is about but sometimes I have to look it up.

- [Jerry Goldsmith: Ten Tracks](https://www.movie-wave.net/jerry-goldsmith-ten-tracks/) - The great Jerry Goldsmith was at the top of his game for decades, innovating and evolving and always looking to do something new. He could - and did - score any kind of film and almost without fail found some interesting music to write. Taking highlight tracks from his scores produces a playlist that lasts
- [Peggy Sue Got Married](https://www.movie-wave.net/peggy-sue-got-married/) - Composed by John Barry Varèse Sarabande / 64m Francis Ford Coppola's lightest film to that point, the time-travel fantasy Peggy Sue Got Married saw Kathleen Turner and Nicolas Cage as a couple on the verge of marital breakdown when she is transported back to high school (when she first fell in love with him) -
- [Below Zero](https://www.movie-wave.net/below-zero/) - Composed by Zacarías M. de la Riva MovieScore Media / 46m An entertaining if highly implausible Spanish action thriller, Below Zero has proven a huge global hit on Netflix.

- [The Midnight Sky](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-midnight-sky/) - Composed by Alexandre Desplat ABKCO / 87m George Clooney is not a personal friend of mine, but he seems to have so many qualities - using his fame as a force for good, seemingly a very nice man, an interesting one, a very fine actor - and so quite why it is that I find
- [News of the World](https://www.movie-wave.net/news-of-the-world/) - Composed by James Newton Howard Backlot / 72m To anyone who lived in the United Kingdom before about ten years ago when it ceased publication (and in that long list of people you will find both myself and Paul Greengrass), News of the World was the title of the country's biggest-selling newspaper; but this film
- [Let Them All Talk](https://www.movie-wave.net/let-them-all-talk/) - Composed by Thomas Newman Lakeshore / 20m A comedy drama from Steven Soderbergh, Let Them All Talk is set on a cruise ship and stars Meryl Streep playing a writer traveling across the Atlantic to collect an award, with her entourage.

- [Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves](https://www.movie-wave.net/robin-hood-prince-of-thieves/) - Composed by Michael Kamen Intrada / 220m (score 132m) While not a great film, Kevin Reynolds's 1991 mega-hit Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves is at least better than any of the 12,000 further Robin Hood adaptations that have come since. Kevin Costner was riding the height of his fame at the time; I will never
- [Let Him Go](https://www.movie-wave.net/let-him-go/) - Composed by Michael Giacchino Back Lot / 55m Based on Larry Watson's novel, Let Him Go stars Diane Lane and Kevin Costner as grandparents who have to take desperate measures to rescue their grandson from the clutches of a dangerous family.

- [His Dark Materials Series 2](https://www.movie-wave.net/his-dark-materials-series-2/) - Composed by Lorne Balfe Silva Screen / 31m So as to avoid the child stars ageing too much in between the series, His Dark Materials was mostly filmed all in one go, which in retrospect has proven to be an even wiser decision given the inevitable delays that would have followed this year's events. Philip
- [Travelogue Volume 1](https://www.movie-wave.net/travelogue-volume-1/) - Composed by Michael Giacchino Death Waltz / 55m Since he first burst on to the scene over two decades ago, Michael Giacchino has rarely been anything less than very busy - first video games, then television, then films have kept him pretty much continually occupied.

- [Morricone Segreto](https://www.movie-wave.net/morricone-segreto/) - Composed by Ennio Morricone Decca / 69m One of the most remarkable things about the great Ennio Morricone was his extraordinary versatility as a composer - able to move effortlessly between virtually all conceivable musical styles.

- [Rebecca](https://www.movie-wave.net/rebecca/) - Composed by Clint Mansell Lakeshore / 62m Alfred Hitchcock's legendary adaptation of Daphne du Maurier's Rebecca is now eighty years old, so it feels fair enough for someone else to have a go at it - but Ben Wheatley certainly had a lot to live up to. Stepping into the shoes of Joan Fontaine, Laurence
- [The Witches](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-witches/) - Composed by Alan Silvestri WaterTower / 72m There was already a perfectly good adaptation of Roald Dahl's The Witches - directed by Nicolas Roeg! - produced by Jim Henson! - released in 1990, so I'm not sure why anyone thought it was a good idea to produce another one. Robert Zemeckis's new version - with

- [The Glorias](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-glorias/) - Composed by Elliot Goldenthal Zarathustra Music / 36m A biopic of feminist activist Gloria Steinem, The Glorias has a plural title because four different actors portray her at different stages of her life.

- [Playing by Heart](https://www.movie-wave.net/playing-by-heart/) - Composed by John Barry Decca / 57m With an amazing ensemble cast, it's a shame that Playing by Heart didn't really make the most of them: Sean Connery and Gena Rowlands play a couple about to renew their wedding vows, with support from (amongst others) Gillian Anderson, Ellen Burstyn, Angelina Jolie, Dennis Quaid and Madeleine

Originally
- [Tenet](https://www.movie-wave.net/tenet/) - Composed by Ludwig Göransson WaterTower / 86m Christopher Nolan's famous aversion to anyone watching his films other than at the cinema meant that Tenet was never likely to follow some other summer 2020 movies and go straight to audiences in their homes, with it instead being the tentpole to restart the big screen experience. I
- [Mulan](https://www.movie-wave.net/mulan/) - Composed by Harry Gregson-Williams Disney / 83m While most of Disney's string of largely-unloved but financially successful "live action" remakes of their classic animations over the last few years have stuck pretty closely to the stories of the originals, Mulan has given the opportunity to take a more serious look at the Chinese legend -

I suspect they meant defining rather than defying, but maybe they didn't; in any case, if anything I've come across recently could be described as genre-defying then it's Fanny

- [Greyhound](https://www.movie-wave.net/greyhound/) - Composed by Blake Neely Lakeshore / 77m In post-production for years, when it was finally ready there was a global pandemic on and so Greyhound became an Apple original.

This was in the 1870s but the depiction of the struggles Reeves faces and the discrimination he must overcome will be depressingly familiar
- [Independence Day](https://www.movie-wave.net/independence-day/) - Composed by David Arnold La-La Land / 2010 / 129m (score 100m) Roland Emmerich's incredibly successful Independence Day came out in 1996 surrounded by hype and seemed to me to be very much enjoyed by audiences, even as critics were sneering at it. More pretentious types now seem to have retrofitted a kind of post-modern

- [Thunderheart](https://www.movie-wave.net/thunderheart/) - Composed by James Horner Intrada / 44m A very fine film, Michael Apted's Thunderheart stars Val Kilmer as an FBI agent sent to investigate a murder on a Native American reservation.

- [The Thing](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-thing/) - Composed by Ennio Morricone Quartet / 50m Now looked upon as a classic, The Thing was laughed out of cinemas when it was released (on the same day as E.T.) in 1982.

- [Apocalypto](https://www.movie-wave.net/apocalypto/) - Composed by James Horner Holywood / 61m We have become used to having dilemmas on how far we can separate the art from the artist in cinema in recent years following all the horror stories that have emerged about various previously-beloved filmmakers both in front of and behind the camera. Mel Gibson is certainly a
- [Artemis Fowl](https://www.movie-wave.net/artemis-fowl/) - Composed by Patrick Doyle Disney / 58m A series of fantasy books for children, Artemis Fowl is about a young criminal mastermind who, in this first in a planned series of films which is likely to end up being a series of one, must rescue his kidnapped father with the help of his faithful dwarf.
- [All the King's Men](https://www.movie-wave.net/all-the-kings-men/) - Composed by James Horner Varèse Sarabande / 56m Robert Penn Warren's Pulitzer-winning novel All the King's Men had already been adapted for the big screen in a hugely successful 1949 film - so successful, in fact, that it won the Best Picture Oscar. Sean Penn was itching to play the juicy central role of a
- [Da 5 Bloods](https://www.movie-wave.net/da-5-bloods/) - Composed by Terence Blanchard Sony / 62m Spike Lee becomes the latest high-profile director to make a Netflix exclusive movie with Da 5 Bloods, an entertaining adventure about a group of Vietnam veterans returning to the country nearly half a century later to find the body of their fallen comrade - and the gold they
- [Ask the River](https://www.movie-wave.net/ask-the-river/) - Composed by Rachel Portman Node Records / 54m There are so few female film composers for whatever reason, they're all trailblazers in some way, but Rachel Portman is even more of a trailblazer than most, having been the first woman to win an Oscar for original score and scored a string of high-profile movies especially
- [Scoob!](https://www.movie-wave.net/scoob/) - Composed by Tom Holkenborg WaterTower / 48m They made so many episodes of Scooby Doo - and loads of direct-to-video movies - all of which are essentially the same. An attempt to do a live-action movie was successful enough to bring a sequel but not successful enough that anyone remembers it, and Scoob! started out
- [Dream Songs: The Essential Joe Hisaishi](https://www.movie-wave.net/dream-songs-the-essential-joe-hisaishi/) - Composed by Joe Hisaishi Decca / 132m A double-disc compilation of highlights from Japan's premiere film composer is nothing new (there have been many over the years) but the arrival of a new one always serves as a welcome reminder of his talents. Of course, he will forever be primarily associated with Studio Ghibli and
- [The Mask of Zorro](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-mask-of-zorro/) - Composed by James Horner Sony / 75m An unexpected smash hit, The Mask of Zorro was a thoroughly-entertaining old-fashioned adventure romp starring Anthony Hopkins and Antonio Banderas as older and younger versions of Zorro; Catherine Zeta-Jones was the former's daughter and the eventual love interest of the latter. Martin Campbell was fresh from the success
- [Once Upon a Forest](https://www.movie-wave.net/once-upon-a-forest/) - Composed by James Horner Fox / 67m Produced by Hanna-Barbera and released by Fox in 1993, Once Upon a Forest is a heavily environmentalist animation originally conceived as a tv project, given more money and bumped up to a theatrical release, then chopped down in length (the film is actually a little shorter than this
- [House of Cards](https://www.movie-wave.net/house-of-cards/) - Composed by James Horner Intrada / 59m Released in 1993 after sitting on the shelf for a couple of years, House of Cards stars Kathleen Turner and Tommy Lee Jones and is about a mother struggling to reconnect with her daughter after her father is killed. It disappeared virtually without trace when it was finally
- [The Devil's Own](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-devils-own/) - Composed by James Horner Beyond Music / 47m Alan J. Pakula's final movie, The Devil's Own certainly has a lot of talent in front of and behind the camera (Harrison Ford and Brad Pitt star and Gordon Willis, also making his swansong, is the cinematographer). But it's a fairly routine thriller set against the backdrop
- [White Lines](https://www.movie-wave.net/white-lines/) - Composed by Tom Holkenborg Milan / 63m A ten-episode thriller from Álex Pina, creator of the popular Money Heist, White Lines is a reasonably enjoyable if completely silly drama about a woman investigating the death of her brother, whose body has just been found twenty years after he disappeared on the Spanish island of Ibiza
- [The Karate Kid](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-karate-kid/) - Composed by James Horner Madison Gate / 64m There are a number of unlikely things about the 2010 remake of The Karate Kid - there's the small fact that it isn't actually about karate, for one, but more surprising still is that it is actually quite good. Nothing however is more unlikely than having had
- [The Four Feathers](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-four-feathers/) - Composed by James Horner Sony / 79m Director Shekhar Kapur's follow-up to the very successful Elizabeth was an adaptation of A.E.W.

- [Wendy](https://www.movie-wave.net/wendy/) - Composed by Dan Romer & Benh Zeitlin Milan / 46m A reimagining of Peter Pan that transplants it to the American Deep South, Wendy is the second movie from director Benh Zeitlin; as on the first (Beasts of the Southern Wild) he has co-composed the score with Dan Romer. It's a playful score with more
- [Defending Jacob](https://www.movie-wave.net/defending-jacob/) - Composed by Atli Örvarsson Paramount / 42m Based on William Landay's popular novel, Defending Jacob is amongst the small amount of content available on Apple tv+, following a family whose son is accused of murder. While it only moves with a pace that might politely be described as glacial, it's compelling enough and one of
- [Another 48 Hrs](https://www.movie-wave.net/another-48-hrs/) - Composed by James Horner Scotti Bros. / 38m (score 20m) 1982's 48 Hrs directed by Walter Hill was one of the decade's earliest buddy cop movies (a genre which proved surprisingly popular during that era), launched the big-screen career of Eddie Murphy and was the most successful movie by far by that point for the
- [Ransom](https://www.movie-wave.net/ransom-2/) - Composed by James Horner Hollywood Records / 73m (Horner score 48m) Ron Howard's Ransom starred Mel Gibson as a wealthy man whose son is kidnapped.

- [The Journey of Natty Gann](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-journey-of-natty-gann/) - Composed by James Horner Intrada / 43m A highly-regarded film, The Journey of Natty Gann is a live-action Disney adventure about a girl who travels across America in search of her father during the Depression. It did only modest business on its release in 1985, but has gone on to become a firm family favourite and is
- [The Big Fix](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-big-fix/) - Composed by Bill Conti Varèse Sarabande / 51m The Big Fix stars Richard Dreyfuss as a private eye hired by an old girlfriend to investigate a smear campaign against someone running for governor of California - with (to quote Wikipedia) deadly results. The versatile Bill Conti was still riding the crest of the Rocky wave
- [Dolphin Reef](https://www.movie-wave.net/dolphin-reef/) - Composed by Steven Price Walt Disney / 68m One of those peculiar anthropomorphic Disney Nature films that attempts to backfill a silly narrative on top of gorgeous wildlife shots (surely this stuff is interesting enough to kids that it doesn't need to be made this way), Dolphin Reef was originally to be released in 2018
- [Across the Sea of Time](https://www.movie-wave.net/across-the-sea-of-time/) - Composed by John Barry Epic / 43m An IMAX 3D film produced more to showcase the format and its subject city than anything else, Across the Sea of Time is notionally a drama about a Russian immigrant arriving in New York City to search for his ancestors and ending up taking lots of photographs of
- [U.S. Marshals](https://www.movie-wave.net/u-s-marshals/) - Composed by Jerry Goldsmith Varèse Sarabande / 74m A world-class film editor he may have been, but Stuart Baird's directorial career is unlikely to be considered alongside the all-time greats. Apologies if that seems a somewhat controversial statement - clearly he is set well apart from the workmanlike Truffaut or the emperor's new clothes wrapped
- [Elephant](https://www.movie-wave.net/elephant/) - Composed by Ramin Djawadi Walt Disney / 61m While he became known for his pulsating modern scores to big action films (and a certain tv series), the first time I came across Ramin Djawadi was for a score for a film set in South Africa called Beat the Drum. He was co-credited with Klaus Badelt
- [Lev Yashin: The Dream Goalkeeper](https://www.movie-wave.net/lev-yashin-the-dream-goalkeeper/) - Composed by George Kallis Moviescore Media / 43m A biopic of the legendary footballer Lev Yashin, goalkeeper for the Soviet national side as well as Dynamo Moscow from 1950 to 1970, The Dream Goalkeeper follows his life from the humblest of beginnings to worldwide fame. Composer George Kallis has tackled Russian movies previously - this
- [Battle Beyond the Stars](https://www.movie-wave.net/battle-beyond-the-stars/) - Composed by James Horner BSX / 71m (score 43m) It's extraordinary really that James Horner - a gentle, shy man - began his film music career by working for Roger Corman. But that was his route into the mainstream and the film that really did it for him was Battle Beyond the Stars - it
- [Where the River Runs Black](https://www.movie-wave.net/where-the-river-runs-black/) - Composed by James Horner Varèse Sarabande / 45m It's that age-old tale, told once again - a young boy is separated from his tribe when his half-human, half-dolphin mother is murdered by people trying to exploit the forest, and when he goes to the city years later he recognises a local politician as the killer.
- [The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-boy-in-the-striped-pyjamas/) - Composed by James Horner Intrada / 52m Much of the power of John Boyne's wonderful book The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas - a child's eye view of the holocaust - comes because the reader is discovering the true horrors of the situation in line with Bruno, the young son of a German officer. Over
- [Fukushima 50](https://www.movie-wave.net/fukushima-50/) - Composed by Taro Iwashiro Universal / 48m Fukushima 50 is a dramatisation about the workers who stayed behind to prevent the meltdown of three reactors at the Fukushima plant in Japan becoming an even greater nuclear disaster. It was released in early March 2020 in Japan and would no doubt have become very successful had
- [The Invisible Man](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-invisible-man/) - Composed by Benjamin Wallfisch Backlot / 50m Elisabeth Moss stars in the contemporary retelling of H.G. Wells's The Invisible Man, playing a woman whose abusive husband apparently dies - but then she becomes convinced he is stalking her and (spoiler alert) may have become invisible. It did good business before becoming one of those movies
- [Glory](https://www.movie-wave.net/glory/) - Composed by James Horner Virgin / 43m By far Ed Zwick's best film, Glory is a moving film following the African American 54th Regiment during the American Civil War. Matthew Broderick (who is not now, nor was in 1989, African American) plays the commanding officer Colonel Shaw with an excellent cast also including Denzel Washington,
- [A Beautiful Mind](https://www.movie-wave.net/a-beautiful-mind/) - Composed by James Horner Decca / 71m Loosely based on his life, A Beautiful Mind tells the story of John Nash, a genius mathematician who suffered from paranoid schizophrenia. In the film he's played (brilliantly) by Russell Crowe, deciphering codes while working at the Pentagon during the Cold War, becoming increasingly convinced he is being
- [Emma](https://www.movie-wave.net/emma-2/) - Composed by Isobel Waller-Bridge and David Schweitzer Backlot / 63m According to Wikipedia, this film is actually called Emma. with a period at the end to signify that it's a period piece. While this will disappoint those who thought Jane Austen's novel was set in a dystopian future where (say) a pandemic is just starting
- [Onward](https://www.movie-wave.net/onward/) - Composed by Mychael and Jeff Danna Walt Disney / 62m Two boys get a chance to spend a few minutes with their late father in Onward, Pixar's latest. But they have to go on a magical quest to do it. Along the way, they connect with each other in the traditional Pixar way -it's a
- [The Call of the Wild](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-call-of-the-wild/) - Composed by John Powell Hollywood Records / 67m It's a sanitised take on Jack London's vintage novel but the latest (of many) big-screen retelling of The Call of the Wild is a decent family adventure film. Much of the criticism seems to have centred on the CGI - it moves in unnatural ways, the hairs
- [Sonic the Hedgehog](https://www.movie-wave.net/sonic-the-hedgehog/) - Composed by Tom Holkenborg Paramount / 43m He's been delighting video game players for so many years it's always been a bit of a mystery why the remarkable true story of Sonic the Hedgehog has never been told in film. Well, finally a new generation can learn about the blue hedgehog and the remarkable story
- [Star Trek: Picard](https://www.movie-wave.net/star-trek-picard/) - Composed by Jeff Russo Lakeshore Records / 67m I don't think anybody really believed that Patrick Stewart would start playing Jean-Luc Picard again, least of all in a new tv series, but after all the next generations we're back with the same generation again as we pick up with the former captain many years after
- [The Lost Prince](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-lost-prince/) - Composed by Howard Shore Howe Records / 49m A light fantasy for children, The Lost Prince is directed by The Artist's Michel Hazanavicius and sees a father and daughter go into a fairytale every night as she falls asleep. Howard Shore only tends to score one movie a year these days and it's been quite
- [Bad Boys For Life](https://www.movie-wave.net/bad-boys-for-life/) - Composed by Lorne Balfe Sony Classical / 40m I usually start these things with a little comment about the film, but to be honest the only thing I keep thinking about Bad Boys For Life is that I can't believe they didn't save the title for the next instalment, which they could have called Bad
- [Dolittle](https://www.movie-wave.net/dolittle/) - Composed by Danny Elfman Back Lot / 58m A lavish fantasy, Dolittle is likely to be remembered for generations to come. Playing the title role is Robert Downey, Jr (reportedly paid several thousand dollars for his work) - evidently Johnny Depp was not available - but Danny Elfman was so he's on hand to provide
- [Cinema Morricone](https://www.movie-wave.net/cinema-morricone/) - Composed by Ennio Morricone Sony Classical / 97m Ennio Morricone's vast catalogue of film music includes every conceivable musical style, from all kinds of classical orchestral through pop and rock and the frankly indescribable. While there are many great attributes to his music that have attracted legions of fans over the years, one thing stands
- [The Two Popes](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-two-popes/) - Composed by Bryce Dessner Milan / 53m A Netflix film examining the relationship between Pope Benedict XVI and his successor Pope Francis, The Two Popes has been acclaimed in particular for its performances by Anthony Hopkins and Jonathan Pryce. For the music, director Fernando Meirelles turned to guitarist and occasional composer Bryce Dessner. His gentle
- [The Morning Show](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-morning-show/) - Composed by Carter Burwell Lakeshore / 51m The flagship show for the launch of Apple tv+, The Morning Show is a surprisingly nuanced look into #metoo horrors on a tv show. It's very slick and expensive (the budget for all the Apple products on display must exceed that of some small countries) and not entirely
- [Sordo: The Silent War](https://www.movie-wave.net/sordo-the-silent-war/) - Composed by Carlos M. Jara MovieScore Media / 72m Set in 1944, Sordo covers the events of a guerilla uprising against Spanish dictator General Franco. Directed by Alfonso Cortés-Cavanillas and starring Asier Etxeandia, most reviews describe the film as being like a Spanish western. The score comes courtesy of Carlos M. Jara, who has previously
- [Little Women](https://www.movie-wave.net/little-women/) - Composed by Alexandre Desplat Sony Classical / 63m Great news for everyone who loves Little Women but think none of the previous six film adaptations quite did the job, as Greta Gerwig's new version comes along; but disappointment for those hoping for a Ghostbusters-style gender bend (I guess adaptation number eight might do that). Saoirse
- [Toy Story 4](https://www.movie-wave.net/toy-story-4/) - Composed by Randy Newman Walt Disney / 72m Every time a new Toy Story sequel is announced, it's hard to imagine how they're going to pull it off, because every film seems to conclude things perfectly. Somehow, they do pull it off. The fourth film is another triumph - this time seeing Woody coming to
- [The Tiger Who Came To Tea](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-tiger-who-came-to-tea/) - Composed by David Arnold Sony Classical / 22m First published in 1968, The Tiger Who Came To Tea has become a beloved children's book in Britain and other parts of the world and remains very popular half a century later. Its author and illustrator Judith Kerr died a few months ago while this television adaptation
- [Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker](https://www.movie-wave.net/star-wars-the-rise-of-skywalker/) - Composed by John Williams Walt Disney / 77m And so we reach the end (until it starts again). For the third time in my life, I've seen the last ever Star Wars movie, this one drawing to a close the adventures of Rey, Finn and Poe and their foe Kylo Ren and a second close
- [1917](https://www.movie-wave.net/1917-2/) - Composed by Thomas Newman Sony Classical / 78m After spending a few years concentrating on James Bond, director Sam Mendes has gone in a different direction now with 1917, a WWI movie which follows a pair of soldiers desperately trying to get a message to British troops about an upcoming German ambush (a story apparently
- [Avengers: Endgame](https://www.movie-wave.net/avengers-endgame/) - Composed by Alan Silvestri Hollywood Records / 117m With Bananaman, Captain Birdseye and Colonel Sanders all added to the regular Avengers crew, the stakes could hardly have been higher in Avengers: Endgame. Beloved characters die, absolutely never to be seen again at all, buildings are destroyed and Martin Scorsese is foaming at the mouth -
- [Marriage Story](https://www.movie-wave.net/marriage-story/) - Composed by Randy Newman Lakeshore / 25m Noah Baumbach's Marriage Story is a smart and impressive look at the marriage breakdown of a couple who just drift apart, the effect it has on them and their son. Scarlett Johansson and Adam Driver are both good, there is excellent support from a range of familiar faces
- [Star Trek: The Motion Picture](https://www.movie-wave.net/star-trek-the-motion-picture/) - Composed by Jerry Goldsmith La-La Land Records / 2012 / 221:13 (score 85:03) When Star Trek transported itself onto the big screen in 1979, there was much anticipation. Everyone was on a high with space-based science fiction movies after Star Wars, the Star Trek fan base was huge and people thought that all the best qualities of the original show
- [Frozen II](https://www.movie-wave.net/frozen-ii/) - Songs by Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez Score by Christophe Beck Disney / 130m There have been many direct-to-video sequels to Disney animations over the years but it's almost unheard of for them to release a sequel theatrically; such was the success of Frozen, it seemed almost unavoidable and so, for the first time in
- [His Dark Materials](https://www.movie-wave.net/his-dark-materials/) - Composed by Lorne Balfe Silva Screen / 53m There's already been one attempt to bring Philip Pullman's delightful fantasy trilogy His Dark Materials to the screen but the first part, The Golden Compass, was disappointing and so the sequels never made it. Now here comes part two - on the small screen this time, a
- [Frozen](https://www.movie-wave.net/frozen/) - Songs by Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez Score by Christophe Beck Disney / 69m I don't know how many times you've seen Frozen but it's probably not as many times as I've seen Frozen. My daughter was born in 2014 and we probably watched it most days in 2016 and 2017. To be fair, it's
- [Adults in the Room](https://www.movie-wave.net/adults-in-the-room/) - Composed by Alexandre Desplat Warner Classics / 49m Greece's Acropolis Now debt crisis moment, which at one point threatened to destroy the Euro currency, is the focus of Costa-Gavras's Adults in the Room. It's based on the book by Yannis Varoufakis, the leather jacket-wearing finance minister who became a bit of a sensation during and
- [The King](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-king/) - Composed by Nicholas Britell Lakeshore / 43m An ambitious Shakespeare adaptation, The King in question is Henry V. It's quite distinctive and impressive but always feels like it's lacking a bit of oomph. Nicholas Britell's down and dirty score is the perfect complement: it broods (boy does it brood), it haunts, it grows as it
- [Midway](https://www.movie-wave.net/midway/) - Composed by Thomas Wander and Harald Kloser Varèse Sarabande / 61m Few directors have such a bizarrely bipolar approach when it comes to their music as Roland Emmerich - up to The Patriot you heard some of the most exciting film music of the time; after it, probably the dullest of all time. I'll let
- [Air Force One](https://www.movie-wave.net/air-force-one/) - Composed by Jerry Goldsmith Varèse Sarabande / 120m (score 90m) Back in more innocent times (1997), we liked to imagine US presidents doing things like fighting off terrorists on aeroplanes. If the president in question is played by Harrison Ford, all the better. Wolfgang Petersen's very silly film (and please note that all I typed
- [Maleficent: Mistress of Evil](https://www.movie-wave.net/maleficent-mistress-of-evil/) - Composed by Geoff Zanelli Disney / 72m Very successful but not seemingly very well-loved, I'm not sure how many people were really sitting there counting the days until a sequel to Maleficent came along, but still - here it is, Mistress of Evil. Angelina Jolie is back, importantly including her cheek bones, but many of
- [Rambo: Last Blood](https://www.movie-wave.net/rambo-last-blood/) - Composed by Brian Tyler Lakeshore / 75m John Rambo comes back for yet another farewell tour in Rambo: Last Blood, this time going to Mexico to rescue his kidnapped adopted daughter. Sylvester Stallone directed the previous one but has given the director's chair over to Adrian Grunberg this time round; but as with all the

- [Joker](https://www.movie-wave.net/joker/) - Composed by Hildur Guðnadóttir Watertower / 36m We all have our own moral compass, a set of things we know we will never do because, simply, they are not right. Of course every person is different, and so is every person's moral compass - what's seen as fine by one person may be completely unacceptable
- [Solis](https://www.movie-wave.net/solis/) - Composed by David Stone Hamilton MovieScore Media / 66m A man is trapped inside a capsule heading straight towards the sun, in radio contact with the person trying to help rescue him. Solis stars Steven Ogg and Alice Lowe in the two roles, and for the music writer/director turned to up-and-coming composer David Stone Hamilton.
- [Across the Stars](https://www.movie-wave.net/across-the-stars/) - Composed by John Williams Deutsche Grammophon / 83m John Williams has developed an incredible canon of film music in his long career and there are numerous albums devoted to it quite apart from all the soundtrack recordings. Wonderfully, he adapts themes from most of his scores into arrangements to be heard in concert and it
- [Rambo: First Blood Part II](https://www.movie-wave.net/rambo-first-blood-part-ii/) - Composed by Jerry Goldsmith Intrada / 140m (score 62m) If First Blood was unexpectedly thoughtful for a 1980s action thriller then its sequels certainly weren't. The first of them saw star Sylvester Stallone team up with James Cameron to write the screenplay, which took John Rambo back to Vietnam to locate and release some US
- [First Blood](https://www.movie-wave.net/first-blood/) - Composed by Jerry Goldsmith Varèse Sarabande / 40m It may be full of implausible action sequences and its reputation is probably forever sullied by its inferior sequels but First Blood is a surprisingly deep and intelligent thriller examining the sometimes harsh reaction given to returning veterans, in this case John Rambo played by Sylvester Stallone
- [Erica](https://www.movie-wave.net/erica/) - Composed by Austin Wintory Sony / 58m An "interactive cinematic game", Erica is essentially a film that the player controls. I can't help but think of those books I had as a kid where I got to choose what happened next. Holly Earl plays Erica, a girl confronting the death of her father in an
- [Ready or Not](https://www.movie-wave.net/ready-or-not/) - Composed by Brian Tyler Fox Music / 63m An action/horror/black comedy, Ready or Not follows a young woman marrying into a wealthy family - with the catch being that all the family members have a night in which they must try to kill her. Hey, it's a family tradition, so she can't complain about that.
- [The Dark Crystal](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-dark-crystal/) - Composed by Trevor Jones La-La Land / 41m It was part of the swathe of fantasy films that appeared in the early 1980s, but what marked The Dark Crystal apart was that it was the first adult-oriented project from Jim Henson (the genius behind the Muppets). And it was a dark film - its story
- [Dora and the Lost City of Gold](https://www.movie-wave.net/dora-and-the-lost-city-of-gold/) - Composed by John Debney and Germaine Franco Paramount Music / 72m Everything changes when you have children. One thing that's changed for me is that I hardly ever go to the cinema any more, but one thing's for certain: I will be going to see Dora and the Lost City of Gold. And my daughter

None of them seems to get much traction with critics but so far they have mostly been very lucrative, so I
- [Hellboy](https://www.movie-wave.net/hellboy/) - Composed by Benjamin Wallfisch Sony Classical / 47m We all remember where we were when the first Hellboy movie came out. The main reason for that is because it was only about a week ago last Tuesday, but that hasn't stopped the powers that be deciding that it's time for a new one, so here
- [Cold Pursuit](https://www.movie-wave.net/cold-pursuit/) - Composed by George Fenton Varèse Sarabande / 49m In stark contrast to all his other recent films, Cold Pursuit stars Liam Neeson as a wronged man on the hunt for revenge. (The press materials for this album describe him as "Liam Neeson, Taken, Taken 2-3.") It was all rather overshadowed by the actor's unfortunate comments
- [The Light Between Oceans](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-light-between-oceans/) - Composed by Alexandre Desplat Lakeshore Records / 2016 / 62m Based on the acclaimed novel by M.L.

- [Captain Marvel](https://www.movie-wave.net/captain-marvel/) - Composed by Pinar Toprak Hollywood Records / 68m It's taken an embarrassingly long time but we finally have one of these Marvel films focusing on a female character. Captain Marvel stars Brie Larson as the eponymous hero and while the plot is basically the same as all the other 683 films in the series, I
- [Serenity](https://www.movie-wave.net/serenity/) - Composed by Benjamin Wallfisch Milan / 63m I don't think it's supposed to be a comedy, but I haven't laughed as hard at a film as Serenity since the last time I saw the immortal words "Zucker-Abrahams-Zucker" appear on a screen. It's an extremely strange film starring Matthew McConaughey as a very angry fisherman who

Alita (played
- [All Is True](https://www.movie-wave.net/all-is-true/) - Composed by Patrick Doyle Sony Classical / 37m Kenneth Branagh directs and stars as William Shakespeare in All Is True, written by Ben Elton and drifting between fact and fiction in its portrait of the great man's twilight years. Branagh's collaboration with composer Patrick Doyle has spanned decades now and - of course - included many Shakespeare adaptations.
- [How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World](https://www.movie-wave.net/how-to-train-your-dragon-the-hidden-world/) - Composed by John Powell Backlot / 76m Completing the trilogy, The Hidden World sees Hiccup searching for the eponymous dragon utopia so the surplus of dragons that have accumulated have somewhere to live. Critical response has been very favourable (these are unusually classy films for Dreamworks Animation) and it would seem the long wait since
- [Welcome to Marwen](https://www.movie-wave.net/welcome-to-marwen/) - Composed by Alan Silvestri Intrada / 58m Robert Zemeckis's strange Welcome to Marwen follows a man who tries to deal with his PTSD suffered after a violent attack on him by constructing a fictional village (the titular Marwen) and living out various fantastical storylines.

- [Bumblebee](https://www.movie-wave.net/bumblebee/) - Composed by Dario Marianelli Paramount / 57m A prequel to the Transformers film series, Bumblebee is also the first in the series not to be directed by Michael Bay, and has attracted a far more positive critical response than any of the previous five; perhaps not surprisingly, it's also not attracted anywhere near the sort of
- [Mary Poppins Returns](https://www.movie-wave.net/mary-poppins-returns/) - Songs by Marc Shaiman and Scott Whitman Score by Marc Shaiman Disney / 79m A belated sequel to Mary Poppins was probably not on anyone's wish list, but Disney has been trawling through its archives recently making films that probably weren't on anyone's wish list and making tonnes of money in the process. (Next year
- [Aquaman](https://www.movie-wave.net/aquaman/) - Composed by Rupert Gregson-Williams WaterTower / 65m The latest instalment in the ever-popular DC Extended Universe, Aquaman tells the true story of the great warrior Aquaman who teamed up with his brother to cleanse the world's oceans of undesirable objects, bringing down tall buildings in the process and causing general chaos.

He hasn't been back to that well for a while, until this two-part

- [Bad Times at the El Royale](https://www.movie-wave.net/bad-times-at-the-el-royale/) - Composed by Michael Giacchino Milan / 75m Bad Times at the El Royale (English translation: Bad Times at the The Royale) is not only an anagram of "almost reheatable deity", it's also a film about seven strangers hiding dark secrets who come together at a seedy hotel in the late 1960s. Director Drew Goddard hired
- [I Promessi Sposi](https://www.movie-wave.net/i-promessi-sposi/) - Composed by Ennio Morricone Fonit / 55m Published in 1827, Alessandro Manzoni's I Promessi Sposi (in English, The Betrothed) has gone onto become regarded as perhaps the most significant piece of Italian literature. The epic novel is set in the 17th century against the backdrop of Italy being ruled by Spain and follows an engaged
- [Venom](https://www.movie-wave.net/venom/) - Composed by Ludwig Göransson Sony Classical / 55m If there's one thing I am sure we can all agree on, it's that there just aren't enough comic book movies being made by Hollywood right now, so it was to everyone's relief that Sony decided to plug this gap in the market by launching their own
- [A Celebration of John Williams](https://www.movie-wave.net/a-celebration-of-john-williams/) - London has played a very important role in the career of John Williams - while he had already been composing for television and then film for a decade, it was while there for large parts of 1968 and later 1970, working on Goodbye Mr Chips and Fiddler on the Roof, that he immersed himself in
- [The Sisters Brothers](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-sisters-brothers/) - Composed by Alexandre Desplat Lakeshore / 60m It's hard to believe that The Sisters Brothers is not a Coen Brothers film - its name, its setup (darkly comic western, a pair of assassins chasing a chemist with a special formula for catching gold), its stars, the fact that the man with the formula is called
- [Yellowstone](https://www.movie-wave.net/yellowstone-2/) - Composed by Brian Tyler Sony Classical / 76m Hopes were very high for Yellowstone, the first tv series written by Taylor Sheridan (writer of Sicario and its sequel, previously better-known as an actor). Starring Kevin Costner, it's a sprawling soap about a wealthy ranch-owner and his neighbours (native Americans, property developers). Music comes from the
- [The Predator](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-predator/) - Composed by Henry Jackman Lakeshore / 55m Director Shane Black rather optimistically proclaimed that his latest instalment in the Predator franchise would "achieve the same sense of wonderment as Close Encounters of the Third Kind" - I suppose it isn't my place to judge whether it did. It is set between the second and third
- [Operation Finale](https://www.movie-wave.net/operation-finale/) - Composed by Alexandre Desplat Sony Classical / 58m Operation Finale tells the story of the Israeli intelligence service's attempts to capture the vile Adolf Eichmann (one of the architects of the Holocaust) in South America in 1960. Directed by Chris Weitz and starring Oscar Isaac and Ben Kingsley, the film has received very mixed reviews,
- [King of Thieves](https://www.movie-wave.net/king-of-thieves/) - Composed by Benjamin Wallfisch Milan / 42m It only happened in 2015 but King of Thieves is already the third film about the Hatton Garden robbery in London (plus two tv series) - perhaps not surprising given how extraordinary it was, carried out by elderly burglars. This is the most high-profile of the bunch by
- [Papillon](https://www.movie-wave.net/papillon/) - Composed by Jerry Goldsmith Quartet / 2017 / 72m Based on Henri Charrière's massively successful memoir of life in a French prison camp in Guyana, Papillon can boast the star power of Steve McQueen and Dustin Hoffman (the former giving one of his finest performances) and Franklin J. Schaffner's film is an entertaining yarn, albeit one
- [Papillon](https://www.movie-wave.net/papillon-buckley/) - Composed by David Buckley BMG / 42m Franklin Schaffner's 1973 film of Papillon is a strange but entertaining one, featuring enjoyable performances by Steve McQueen and Dustin Hoffman. The accuracy of Henri Charrière's memoir on which it is based has always been challenged - and Dalton Trumbo's screenplay took further liberties. Rather oddly, this new
- [Crazy Rich Asians](https://www.movie-wave.net/crazy-rich-asians/) - Composed by Brian Tyler WaterTower / 64m A romantic comedy based on a best-selling novel might not seem a likely place for a film which may well turn out to be something of a cultural turning point in Hollywood, but that's exactly how Crazy Rich Asians is being received. Incredibly (really, virtually unbelievably) it is
- [Christopher Robin](https://www.movie-wave.net/christopher-robin/) - Score by Geoff Zanelli and Jon Brion Songs by Richard M. Sherman Walt Disney / 57m The latest Winnie-the-Pooh film is not like the others: live action for a start, it stars Ewen McGregor as a grown-up Christopher Robin, who has forgotten how to have fun until his childhood bear turns up and reminds him what
- [John Williams: A Life in Music](https://www.movie-wave.net/john-williams-a-life-in-music/) - Composed by John Williams Decca / 50m I suspect that for many generations to come, the most-performed and most-listened to orchestral music of the second half of the twentieth century will be John Williams's. His remarkable career has seen him write such high quality music for such successful films for such a long time, alongside
- [James Horner - The Classics](https://www.movie-wave.net/james-horner-the-classics/) - Composed by James Horner Sony Classical / 64m I enjoyed last year's Hans Zimmer - The Classics album, which saw a selection of Sony Classical artists offering their takes on various themes by Zimmer, often in radically-altered arrangements compared with the originals. Zimmer's music obviously lends itself to such treatments - the melodies can be
- [The Mummy](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-mummy-2/) - Composed by Jerry Goldsmith Intrada / 158m (score 91m) I don't think anyone involved with 1999's The Mummy could have predicted that it would become such a major success: a lighthearted reboot of the classic Universal monster series, Brendan Fraser starred (I repeat: 1999) as a 1920s archaeological adventurer who - with Rachael Weisz's librarian
- [A Tribute to Michael Kamen](https://www.movie-wave.net/a-tribute-to-michael-kamen/) - Composed by Michael Kamen Quartet / 74m My real journey of discovery into great film music began in the mid 1990s, around the same time the internet started taking off. With most of the great composers I was exploring (Barry, Bernstein, Goldsmith, Morricone, Williams) it was not difficult to find kindred spirits online, espousing their
- [Skyscraper](https://www.movie-wave.net/skyscraper/) - Composed by Steve Jablonsky Milan / 75m Action hero must save his family trapped in a tall tower after it is taken over by terrorists: hmm, let me think. Nope, can't think of anything, Skyscraper is an absolutely original thought from Hollywood. Said action hero is played by Dwayne Johnson - somehow struggling to portray
- [Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom](https://www.movie-wave.net/jurassic-world-fallen-kingdom/) - Composed by Michael Giacchino Back Lot Music / 80m The fifth film in the Jurassic Park franchise is the first not to be directed by Steven Spielberg, Joe Johnston or Colin Trevorrow, with J.A. Bayona stepping into the director's chair this time around. The plot is something like "wouldn't it be a great idea to
- [Ant-Man and the Wasp](https://www.movie-wave.net/ant-man-and-the-wasp/) - Composed by Christophe Beck Hollywood Records / 56m One of the most entertaining of the Marvel movies, Ant-Man was refreshingly free of the bloated feel that dogs a lot of them - just the right blend of wit and action, and at times a pleasingly small-scale feeling (appropriately enough). Now here's the sequel, Ant-Man and
- [Ant-Man](https://www.movie-wave.net/ant-man/) - Composed by Christophe Beck Hollywood Records / 2015 / 65m Not being a lover of comic books, I read the synopsis of some of these things that come out and think "surely this is scraping the barrel?" I am usually entirely wrong, as was the case last year with Guardians of the Galaxy (a talking tree? -
- [Lost in Space](https://www.movie-wave.net/lost-in-space/) - Composed by Christopher Lennertz Lakeshore / 72m Loosely based on The Swiss Family Robinson - but in space - the 1960s tv show Lost in Space was popular in its day and reruns of it (and the other Irwin Allen-produced shows of the day) kept running for a long time thereafter. An ill-advised feature remake
- [Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian](https://www.movie-wave.net/night-at-the-museum-battle-of-the-smithsonian/) - Composed by Alan Silvestri Varese Sarabande / 2009 / 50:01 Sometimes films confound all expectations and do far better than anyone really imagines they might - such was the case with Shaun Levy's Night at the Museum, which ended up being the second most-successful film of 2006. A silly - but obviously well-liked - film about
- [The Boy Who Could Fly](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-boy-who-could-fly/) - Composed by Bruce Broughton Varèse Encore / 2012 / 34:37 After a family relocates following the father's suicide, the daughter becomes friends with a local autistic boy, who dreams he can fly.

- [Small Soldiers](https://www.movie-wave.net/small-soldiers/) - Composed by Jerry Goldsmith Varèse Sarabande CD Club / 76m I love Joe Dante - everyone loves Joe Dante. I've always thought his best two films were Gremlins 2 and Matinée, made consecutively - but neither was a particular success and he found himself working in television for a while afterwards. His return to bigger
- [Solo: A Star Wars Story](https://www.movie-wave.net/solo-a-star-wars-story/) - Composed by John Powell Walt Disney Records / 77m A little-known fact about Star Wars is that its French title is Les dents de la mer, which I can tell you translates directly as The War of the Stars. [*See footnote.] You may wonder why I'm telling you this - well, I'm a follower of
- [Bicentennial Man](https://www.movie-wave.net/bicentennial-man/) - Composed by James Horner Sony Classical / 66m Overly mawkish and sentimental, Chris Columbus's Bicentennial Man is not well-remembered. Based on an Isaac Asimov story, it follows the story of a robot (Robin Williams) who is the slave of a wealthy family over an extended period (the length of the period is no surprise to
- [Avengers: Infinity War](https://www.movie-wave.net/avengers-infinity-war/) - Composed by Alan Silvestri Hollywood Records / 72m Ten years after Iron Man started it all, the Marvel Cinematic Universe hurtles towards the end of the road for some of this batch of characters in Avengers: Infinity War. Because they release these films more frequently than most people change their socks, it can be hard
- [Rampage](https://www.movie-wave.net/rampage/) - Composed by Andrew Lockington WaterTower / 73m We've all been there - make friends with a gorilla, gorilla gets accidentally turned gigantic and goes all nasty, have to coax it to be friendly again to defeat the giant crocodile and wolf also raging through the city.

- [I Kill Giants](https://www.movie-wave.net/i-kill-giants/) - Composed by Laurent Perez del Mar Varèse Sarabande / 53m A children's fantasy film, I Kill Giants follows the adventures of a teenager called Barbara - who kills giants. The film actually got decent reviews but barely anybody saw it (according to Wikipedia, its total box office takings in its first month of release have
- [Ready Player One](https://www.movie-wave.net/ready-player-one/) - Composed by Alan Silvestri WaterTower / 84m Steven Spielberg's most popular film in years, Ready Player One diverts away in many ways from Ernest Cline's novel but perfectly captures its heart: a young man in a not-so-distant future gives his all to try to get away from a horrible life and claim a massive prize
- [Wild](https://www.movie-wave.net/wild/) - Composed by Matthijs Kieboom MovieScore Media / 64m A Dutch nature documentary, Wild follows the life cycle of some animals living in the woods in the enormous Veluwe park in the country.

- [A Wrinkle In Time](https://www.movie-wave.net/a-wrinkle-in-time/) - Composed by Ramin Djawadi Walt Disney Records / 76m I not only have a child, apparently I was once a child myself, but I've never heard of A Wrinkle In Time despite it apparently being a "hugely popular" children's book. It's directed by Ava DuVernay and its big stars are Oprah Winfrey and Reese Witherspoon, and
- [Red Sparrow](https://www.movie-wave.net/red-sparrow/) - Composed by James Newton Howard Sony Classical / 76m A spy thriller which seems eerily appropriate at the time I write these words, Red Sparrow stars Jennifer Lawrence as a Russian secret agent trained at the "Sparrow School" which teaches female agents how to seduce their male targets. Quicker than you can say "#MeToo" she's
- [Nostalgia](https://www.movie-wave.net/nostalgia/) - Composed by Laurent Eyquem Varèse Sarabande / 31m With an amazing ensemble cast featuring Jon Hamm, Nick Offerman and many others, Mark Pellington's Nostalgia is one of those films that follows various people and the ties that link them together, the connection this time being loss. Laurent Eyquem's score is completely gorgeous. The "Opening Theme"
- [Death Wish](https://www.movie-wave.net/death-wish/) - Composed by Ludwig Göransson Sony Classical / 55m A remake of Michael Winner's most famous film, Death Wish sees Bruce Willis step into the role made so famous by Charles Bronson in 1974.

- [Black Panther](https://www.movie-wave.net/black-panther/) - Composed by Ludwig Göransson Hollywood Records / 24 1/2 years (actually 95m) It's political correctness gone mad: not content with remaking Ghostbusters for women (the horror), we've now got The Pink Panther remade for black people. Chadwick Boseman takes over the Peter Sellers role and Michael B. Jordan has the unenviable task of following Herbert
- [The Blue Planet](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-blue-planet/) - Composed by George Fenton Silva Screen / 55m The BBC had been producing magnificent natural history documentaries for a number of years but The Blue Planet, first shown in 2001, was a bit of a game-changer. Producer Alastair Fothergill took a coffee table book approach, looking for magnificent visuals that could be turned into engaging
- [The Cloverfield Paradox](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-cloverfield-paradox/) - Composed by Bear McCreary Sparks and Shadows / 75m The story of this film's release ended up exciting a lot of people more than the film itself did. Retrofitted into the Cloverfield universe, The Cloverfield Paradox (originally called God Particle) was to be released theatrically by Paramount. Like the previous two entries in the series,

A sequel to the Robin Williams film, with Dwayne Johnson now taking the lead, the board game takes on a

With Steven Spielberg behind the camera and Tom Hanks
- [Star Trek: Discovery](https://www.movie-wave.net/star-trek-discovery/) - Composed by Jeff Russo Lakeshore / 2017 / 53m It felt like we were long overdue a new Star Trek tv show when Discovery was announced - there wasn't some innate problem with Star Trek which led to ever-reducing viewerships in the previous couple of shows, it was just that they weren't really very good.

- [The Haunting](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-haunting/) - Composed by Jerry Goldsmith Varèse Sarabande / 2017 / 74m It is fair to say that of the two cinematic adaptations of Shirley Jackson's novel The Haunting of Hill House, Jan de Bont's 1999 one is the less-favoured. Indeed, it was absolutely panned on its release, with few reviews finding anything good to say about
- [Coco](https://www.movie-wave.net/coco/) - Composed by Michael Giacchino Walt Disney Records / 2017 / 78m The latest acclaimed Pixar movie, Coco tells the story of a young Mexican boy whose family tries to suppress his love of music; on the Day of the Dead he inadvertently crosses over into the spirit world and must then fight to make his

- [Murder on the Orient Express](https://www.movie-wave.net/murder-on-the-orient-express/) - Composed by Patrick Doyle Sony Classical / 2017 / 57m I realise it may be controversial to say this, but I think that Hercule Poirot is one of the greatest moustachioed Belgian characters introduced in all of British literature of the 1920s - certainly in the top twenty. His most famous role came in Murder
- [Suburbicon](https://www.movie-wave.net/suburbicon/) - Composed by Alexandre Desplat ABKCO / 2017 / 68m Suburbicon is the latest film from director George Clooney, perhaps best known to audiences around the world for the screwball romantic comedy hit Leatherheads starring Jennifer Lawrence and Bernard Hill.

- [The Emoji Movie](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-emoji-movie/) - Composed by Patrick Doyle Sony Classical / 2017 / 63m Based on the inspirational true story, it is unlikely that Oscar voters will need to watch another film this year after they see The Emoji Movie, currently setting both critics and audiences alight and almost certainly on course to break Avatar's box office records. It

In what sounds like the most cheerful plot ever conceived for a film (spoilers ahead for the rest of this paragraph, but no
- [Cars 3](https://www.movie-wave.net/cars-3/) - Composed by Randy Newman Walt Disney Records / 2017 / 50m It may be the least critically-loved series in Pixar's roster, but Cars is a very lucrative franchise so a third film was probably always likely to be on the cards. The previous entry was easily the worst film the studio has put out but

- [The Land Before Time](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-land-before-time/) - Composed by James Horner MCA / 1988 / 58m With Disney in a rut, other companies' animated movies were more to the fore through much of the 1980s and one of the most successful was Don Bluth's The Land Before Time. There have been no fewer than thirteen direct-to-video sequels (the most recent coming in 2016)
- [The Mummy](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-mummy/) - Composed by Brian Tyler Back Lot Music / 2017 / 124m The first film in Universal's new (well, old, I guess) "Dark Universe" which will be resurrecting many of the famous monsters from their films of many decades past, The Mummy rather improbably stars Tom Cruise as the man who unwittingly discovers the tomb of

Six years have passed since the release of the fourth, and worst, and now here's the fifth, known as Dead Me Tell
- [Wonder Woman](https://www.movie-wave.net/wonder-woman/) - Composed by Rupert Gregson-Williams WaterTower / 2017 / 79m Given that the same comic book characters keep getting the same films made about them over and over again, it's quite a surprise that when Wonder Woman appeared in Batman v Superman in 2016 it was the first time she'd ever appeared on the big screen.
- [King Arthur: Legend of the Sword](https://www.movie-wave.net/king-arthur-legend-of-the-sword/) - Composed by Daniel Pemberton WaterTower / 2017 / 76m It may have been told a thousand times before, but the story of King Arthur and co has never been told quite as it is in Guy Ritchie's King Arthur: Legend of the Sword, with Charlie Hunnam in the title role.

- [Alien: Covenant](https://www.movie-wave.net/alien-covenant/) - Composed by Jed Kurzel Milan / 2017 / 59m Prometheus, Ridley Scott's Alien prequel, wasn't a particularly well-liked film but its 2012 box office performance was still strong and so Scott returns to the series which he started back in 1979 with a follow-up. Michael Fassbender returns from the previous film, part of the crew of
- [Alien](https://www.movie-wave.net/alien/) - Composed by Jerry Goldsmith Intrada / 2007 / 127m (score 57m) Ridley Scott's visual flair has led to a number of handsome-looking films (and a great deal of success), but his tendency to go for style over substance often leads to a slightly unsatisfactory feel to his films. Once, everything came together, and that was
- [Guardians of the Galaxy](https://www.movie-wave.net/guardians-of-the-galaxy/) - Composed by Tyler Bates Hollywood Records / 2014 / 65m I did wonder if the extraordinary run of success for the Marvel series of films might just end with this one, that the rather obscure Guardians of the Galaxy might be a step too far - a raccoon and a walking, talking tree amongst the gang of
- [Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2](https://www.movie-wave.net/guardians-of-the-galaxy-vol-2/) - Composed by Tyler Bates Hollywood Records / 2017 / 44m I thought James Gunn's Guardians of the Galaxy was one of the more entertaining entries in the Marvel series so far, gleefully refusing to take itself seriously, and audience reaction in general was overwhelmingly positive. A sequel was inevitable, and Gunn has returned along with

- [Viceroy's House](https://www.movie-wave.net/viceroys-house/) - Composed by A.R. Rahman Filmtrax / 2017 / 44m Viceroy's House is the Upstairs, Downstairs of the Indian partition.

Bruce Cameron's
- [Jackie](https://www.movie-wave.net/jackie/) - Composed by Mica Levi Milan / 2016 / 34m Natalie Portman gives what is generally considered to be one of her finest performances as Jackie Kennedy in Pablo Larrain's acclaimed Jackie, which covers her time in the White House and then in the aftermath of her husband's assassination.

- [Po](https://www.movie-wave.net/po/) - Composed by Burt Bacharach Varèse Sarabande / 2017 / 48m They don't make legends much more legendary than Burt Bacharach, songwriter extraordinaire.

His latest, Hacksaw Ridge, follows

- [Jack Reacher: Never Go Back](https://www.movie-wave.net/jack-reacher-never-go-back/) - Composed by Henry Jackman Paramount Music / 2016 / 52m Christopher McQuarrie's 2013 Jack Reacher, based on the ninth of Lee Child's hugely successful (and entertaining) series of novels about the loner who seems to find trouble wherever he goes, was an above-average modern action thriller intended to start a series but it didn't do all

- [Collage](https://www.movie-wave.net/collage/) - Composed by James Horner Mercury Classics / 2016 / 77m I've written it before, but it's worth repeating that one of the many sad things about the death of James Horner in 2015 was that he had obviously acquired a fresh zest for writing music in the year or two beforehand.

It's credited as being based on Robert A. Heinlein's 1959 novel but really it's lampooning it, also throwing in various references to old WWII propaganda

- [Planet of the Apes](https://www.movie-wave.net/planet-of-the-apes/) - Composed by Jerry Goldsmith Varèse Sarabande / 1997 / 68m Despite its success, I doubt that many people back in 1968 would have predicted that Franklin J.

Rahman Walt Disney Records / 2014 / 45m Considering it's the second most popular sport in the world, there really aren't many films about cricket.

- [Terminal Velocity](https://www.movie-wave.net/terminal-velocity/) - Composed by Joel McNeely Varèse Sarabande / 1994 / 33m Undoubtedly one of the greatest films ever made, Deran Sarafian's 1994 action movie Terminal Velocity starred Charlie Sheen - has there ever been a bad film starring Charlie Sheen? - and Nastassja Kinski.

John Ottman was unavailable for the first film but Singer got to work
- [X-Men](https://www.movie-wave.net/x-men/) - Composed by Michael Kamen Decca / 2000 / 41m There is no shortage today of comic book movies. The universes of Marvel and DC rule at the box office.

- [Psycho II](https://www.movie-wave.net/psycho-ii/) - Composed by Jerry Goldsmith Intrada / 2014 / 74m Alfred Hitchcock shocked the movie world in 1960 with Psycho, his iconic horror movie that broke all sorts of new ground.

- [The Sum of All Fears](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-sum-of-all-fears/) - Composed by Jerry Goldsmith La-La Land Records / 2014 / 79m The fourth Jack Ryan movie, The Sum of All Fears was released in 2002, a time when its plot of a nuclear bomb being exploded in an American city by terrorists really didn't seem all that fanciful. Ben Affleck was hardly a popular choice

- [Walk of Shame](https://www.movie-wave.net/walk-of-shame/) - Composed by John Debney Lakeshore Records / 2014 / 31m A highbrow arthouse movie expected to strongly compete for the Palme d'Or, I can't help but think it is somehow fitting that Walk of Shame is being released so soon after the death of Alain Resnais.

- [Good Will Hunting](https://www.movie-wave.net/good-will-hunting/) - Composed by Danny Elfman Music Box Records / 2014 / 45m It was a simpler time. We didn't have colour-coded "terror warning" indicators from the government. If someone mentioned a credit crunch, you'd think they were talking about a great breakfast cereal or something.

- [Standing Up](https://www.movie-wave.net/standing-up/) - Composed by Brian Tyler Varèse Sarabande / 2013 / 51m I'm afraid I lost all interest in Standing Up after it changed its title from The Goats.

- [The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-hobbit-an-unexpected-journey/) - Composed by Howard Shore WaterTower Music / 2012 / 127m It always seemed quite likely that at some point The Hobbit would make it onto the big screen from the same team that brought forth the excellent Lord of the Rings trilogy just after the turn of the century.

- [Restless](https://www.movie-wave.net/restless/) - Composed by Danny Elfman La-La Land Records / 2013 / 35m A charming little film from Gus Van Sant, Restless was released to very little fanfare in 2011.

Like the earlier film, it is intended to showcase the force of doing good things. Also
- [La Mula](https://www.movie-wave.net/la-mula/) - Composed by Oscar Navarro MovieScore Media / 2013 / 53m Sounding very much like a Spanish War Horse, La Mula is based on Juan Eslava Galán's novel about a mule discovered on a battlefield during the Spanish Civil War, and his subsequent travels.

- [Apollo 13](https://www.movie-wave.net/apollo-13/) - Composed by James Horner Promotional / 1995 / 59m One of the major films of 1995, Ron Howard's Apollo 13 was a big hit with both critics and audiences and is probably the director's finest film. Telling the story of the "successful failure" of what was to have been NASA's third manned trip to the
- [Red 2](https://www.movie-wave.net/red-2/) - Composed by Alan Silvestri La-La Land Records / 2013 / 59m Bruce Willis and friends are back in the action/comedy sequel Red 2, directed by Galaxy Quest's Dean Parisot, with Anthony Hopkins and Catherine Zeta-Jones amongst the new faces this time. Action veteran Alan Silvestri has taken over scoring duties for the sequel, taking over the
- [The Spitfire Grill](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-spitfire-grill/) - Composed by James Horner Sony Classical / 1996 / 51m Winner of the Audience Award at the 1996 Sundance Film Festival, The Spitfire Grill gained a briefly high profile when New Line Cinema paid a fortune to acquire the distribution rights; that profile didn't extend to anyone really going to see it. One of those
- [Krull](https://www.movie-wave.net/krull/) - Composed by James Horner La-La Land Records / 2010 / 100m Spare a thought for the six-year-old James Southall. (If you don't know who James Southall is, don't worry - it's not too important - but at the same time, go boil your head.) In his second year of school, it's the Christmas holiday, and
- [Rise of the Planet of the Apes](https://www.movie-wave.net/rise-of-the-planet-of-the-apes/) - Composed by Patrick Doyle Varèse Sarabande / 2011 / 62m Most people filed Rise of the Planet of the Apes - Fox's attempt to bring new life to its longstanding franchise - under "surprisingly good". I was one of those people. It covers similar ground to 1972's Conquest of the Planet of the Apes, telling
- [Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 2](https://www.movie-wave.net/harry-potter-and-the-deathly-hallows-part-2/) - Composed by Alexandre Desplat WaterTower Music / 2011 / 68m Ten years after the first film appeared, with its eager little cast and bright, busy direction from Chris Columbus, the Harry Potter series ended in cinemas in late 2011 in grand style, Potter finally facing his nemesis in The Deathly Hallows, Part 2, David Yates's
- [Crusoe](https://www.movie-wave.net/crusoe/) - Composed by Michael Kamen Quartet Records / 2013 / 41m 1988's Crusoe is one of the great number of film adaptations of Daniel Defoe's classic story, this one starring Aidan Quinn in the title role. Directed by veteran cinematographer Caleb Deschanel, unsurprisingly the film was praised for looking beautiful, but didn't do all that well overall. Michael
- [Elysium](https://www.movie-wave.net/elysium/) - Composed by Ryan Amon Varèse Sarabande / 2013 / 72m Perhaps there's some subtle social commentary in here, I don't know - Elysium is set in the future, when the richest 1% of the population live in complete luxury aboard a space station orbiting Earth, while the other 99% live in abject poverty in various
- [Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters](https://www.movie-wave.net/percy-jackson-sea-of-monsters/) - Composed by Andrew Lockington Sony Classical / 2013 / 70m The few people who saw the blatant Harry Potter cash-in Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief didn't seem to like it very much, so it's a bit of a surprise that three years later a sequel has arrived, in the form of Sea of Monsters. Potter
- [Planes](https://www.movie-wave.net/planes/) - Composed by Mark Mancina Walt Disney Records / 2013 / 53m Pixar's two Cars movies were both massive financial successes despite being the least critically well-received movies from the studio to date. Now, Disney has decided to produce a spinoff (without Pixar), which instead of focusing on racing cars focuses on racing planes. It's called Planes.
- [Europa Report](https://www.movie-wave.net/europa-report/) - Composed by Bear McCreary Sparks and Shadows / 2013 / 57m A "found footage" movie documenting a mission to Europa - one of the many moons of Jupiter - to search for signs of life, Europa Report was recently released "straight to video-on-demand" in America and has received generally positive reviews, particularly for its acting
- [Canadian Bacon](https://www.movie-wave.net/canadian-bacon/) - Composed by Elmer Bernstein and Peter Bernstein Quartet Records / 2013 / 40m A satire on the first Gulf War, Canadian Bacon is Michael Moore's only non-documentary film. I remember him at the time from the very witty TV Nation, before he went on to find greater fame with his more controversial documentaries a few years
- [A Place in the Sun](https://www.movie-wave.net/a-place-in-the-sun/) - Composed by Franz Waxman Kritzerland / 2013 / 51m Often included in people's lists of the greatest Hollywood films ever made, A Place in the Sun was based on Theodore Dreiser's novel An American Tragedy. It was actually the second film version of the novel (the first was not successful); the great George Stevens was
- [Evil Dead](https://www.movie-wave.net/evil-dead/) - Composed by Roque Baños La-La Land Records / 2013 / 71m The marketing guys who decided that the 2013 update of Evil Dead should be presented as "the most terrifying film you will ever experience" - they were presumably not in school on the day the lesson about avoiding setting oneself up for a fall was given.
- [Patriot Games](https://www.movie-wave.net/patriot-games/) - Composed by James Horner La-La Land Records / 2013 / 90m (score 67m) I'm sure most people would pick something else, but I think Patriot Games is the best of the four Jack Ryan movies that have been made so far. Philip Noyce's film is a bit silly, but these things tend to be; it's
- [Clear and Present Danger](https://www.movie-wave.net/clear-and-present-danger/) - Composed by James Horner Intrada / 2013 / 100m (score 88m) The third entry in the Jack Ryan movie series (and the second and lastto feature Harrison Ford as Tom Clancy's hero), Clear and Present Danger sees Ryan caught up in an illegal US operation against Colombian drug lords. Like the other films in the
- [Willard](https://www.movie-wave.net/willard/) - Composed by Shirley Walker La-La Land Records / 2013 / 50m In Willard, Crispin Glover plays a young man who loves rates. His best friend, Socrates, is a rat. He uses his special connection to rats to get them to do his bidding, particularly concerning his boss, played with typical subtlety by R. Lee Ermey. Stephen
- [The Smurfs 2](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-smurfs-2/) - Composed by Heitor Pereira Varese Sarabande / 2013 / 48m The sequel to The Smurfs, the cunningly-titled The Smurfs 2 sees the blue critters travel to Paris to rescue the kidnapped Smufette and save the world from the evil Gargamel. I believe it is based on true events. Returning to provide the score is Heitor Pereira;
- [The Angels' Share](https://www.movie-wave.net/the-angels-share/) - Composed by George Fenton Quartet Records / 2013 / 46m Ken Loach's 2012 film The Angels' Share is a typical social drama from the esteemed director, following a group of young Scots finding their way in life despite their poverty. As is reasonably well known throughout the world, most Scots occupy their time by doing three
- [Evidence](https://www.movie-wave.net/evidence/) - Composed by Atli Örvarsson Varèse Sarabande / 2013 / 38m A series of recording devices are rather fortuitously left behind at a crime scene in Olatunde Osunsanmi's Evidence, allowing detectives to piece together the crimes that have been carried out against a group of bus passengers who've been knocked off one by one in the middle of the
- [Rise of the Guardians](https://www.movie-wave.net/rise-of-the-guardians/) - Composed by Alexandre Desplat Varèse Sarabande / 2012 / 69m A DreamWorks animation featuring the Easter Bunny, Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy, Rise of the Guardians was a box office disappointment. following its release at Christmas 2012. It did surprise something of a surprise in the musical department, with the score (very unusually for
- [Zero Dark Thirty](https://www.movie-wave.net/zero-dark-thirty/) - Composed by Alexandre Desplat Madison Gate Records / 2012 / 53m Kathryn Bigelow's Zero Dark Thirty tells the story of the 2011 mission to dispatch justice, US-style, to Osama bin Laden. Its depiction of torture (or "enhanced interrogation" to use the CIA speak) makes it rather unsettling viewing and provokes the kind of thoughts and
- [Film Music Purée: Disturbing news from Comic-Con](https://www.movie-wave.net/film-music-puree-disturbing-news-from-comic-con/) - SAN DIEGO, CA - Worrying reports have arrived here at Film Music Purée offices. We understand that Californian authorities have launched a full-scale investigation after a forthcoming movie was announced at Comic-Con that will not feature a score by Hans Zimmer. Under such dire circumstances it is understandable that law enforcement officers would not be
- [Franco de Gemini 1928-2013](https://www.movie-wave.net/franco-de-gemini-1928-2013/) - Franco de Gemini, who played harmonica on many film scores over a long period, has died in Italy. He was also an occasional film composer and, more recently, the founder and owner of Beat Records, which has issued a large number of Italian soundtracks on CD. He played harmonica on many of the great Italian
