There has often been dispute amongst soundtrack collectors as to the merits of mostly electronic scores. Gems such as "National Treasure" and "Con Air" have proven that electronics can not only be effective, but downright awesome... This album does nothing for either argument. On the one hand, there are enough heroic motifs and heavy guitar riffs to please fans of the film, but not enough musical intrigue or creativity to warrant a purchase for the rest of us. I give this album three stars for it's ability to entertain and rock the listening crowd. : )
Great Sci FI Fantasy genre. The special effects are outstanding. Good mix of romantic interlude (not enough to be mushy), and action. Robert Downey does a good job of protraying a suave a fair millionaire playboy and action hero. A few of the scenes are a little weak but they're forgivable since they're sandwiched in between either good action scenes or good interlude shots between Downey and Plathow. Good tease at the very end with a continuing sequel.
