Contemptuous? I just didn't think it was that impressive as music. The movie is amazing, though. Someone on Facebook (or maybe here?) said it was like listening to Price doing the THX logo music over and over. I don't know if I'd agree with that, but that was funny.

I find it odd that there were solo vocal female performances in a score where practically the only character is a female. It's like there's some weird connection there, but I can't quite figure out what it is...
One audience's says after seeing the film:
"Due to my mental condition, I didn't notice that the film had only one single female character. Hell, I didn't even notice that Sandra Bullock was female. --But thankfully, the music was really helpful. Its clever use of female vocal really cleared my confusion.
Thank you director for being so obvious! Otherwise I'd be totally lost."
Oh good! Glad they figured that out. I wasn't sure if you had or not since you've been in this thread spending time bashing this score so much. Go internet!
Hey I'm just a fat dumb nerd wasting my time on the useless internet so of course I didn't figure anything out.
I should absolutely learn from YOU to spend my time on more meaningful activities, like posting stuff on this forum.
And this score is shit for this amazing film. There, I said it again. Can't help it.
Your description of yourself makes me sad :-(
Everyone is obviously entitled to their own opinion, I just thought I'd toss my opinion (which won't change) and love for this score (and the reasons why I love it) into the mix.
I do have to say Phillip Glass would've been an interesting choice as well!
Are you sad because it applies to yourself and 99 percent of the "film music"-loving nerds here? Because if not, you need to fix your sarcasm detector.
Seriously man, you should listen to more Glass instead of this noise.

I don't understand all the negativity towards this score.
I personally found it good within the film but as a stand alone listen I only liked three or four tracks.
I found the film to be pretty good. Fantastic effects and very tense. My only gripe is the long LONG takes... in CHILDREN OF MEN they were cool and very impressive and while they did draw attention to themselves the weren't too much of a crutch where in this film its essentially a demonstration reel.

The film should have ended with Sandra Bullock crashing into atmosphere, without the cliched Hollywood victorious ending.
SPOILERS BELOW!
..., the only thing that suggested that the ending might be "victorious" was the score. Since Bullock is alone, half-naked, and without communications, food or water at the end of the film, for all we know she might well die of stavation in some uninhabited spot of the globe after the fadeout. If the final music cue had been a despairing one rather than a triumphant one, that horrid fate could have been the feeling left with the audience insteadendquote]
bOB! bob! bob!
iF you listen carefully , you will hear Mission Control radioing Bullock with the info that "they have tracked her by radar and are sending a rescue team"
Also, being that she was on a Chinese vehicle one assumes she crashed in the China Sea and the Chinese also tracked her.

Unlike, THERE WILL BE BLOOD , this is an "avant-garde" score that works!
How can anyone not be moved by the re-entry scene music and Bullock's final bow??!!
Look forward to more from this previously unknown composer
bruce
