Trailer looked good for this one. Hard-hitting! Powerful! Kathryn Bigelow hooks up with JNH (only two score tracks on the song-track album). I imagine dark synthy throbbing menace, of which JNH has done before and Bigelow tends to go for. Looking forward to seeing and hearing it on the big screen. Thoughts?
Oh, really. Well then, those two tracks could represent the bulk of the score. I don't imagine the film will need too much music, what with the placement of source music/songs and the semi-docu' feel to things.
Just watched this now, and the only really noticeable music sounded like something I already own - but not sure what. Having listened to samples of the two short JNH tracks on the soundtrack, it didn't seem to be either of them. Did any of you folks with better memories perhaps notice a tracked-in piece during the film? (Apologies, I was concentrating too much on the film to recall precisely which scene it was used in...)
I haven't seen the film yet, but it's next up on my 'trip to the cinema' schedule. It's had some great reviews. The tracked in piece (if that is what it was) is usually credited at the end of the end credits. I'll keep a look-out.

Thanks! After two and a half hours, I didn't think my wife would appreciate sticking around until the end of the credits so I could check that...
That's NOT the best music he composed. That's the music the director and/or the producers asked him to write, or the version(s) they preferred the most. If you've been listening to JNH's music over the decades, you will know he CAN write some of the best film music heard for years!
