DID THEY MENTION THE MUSIC?
ANAÏS IN LOVE - Nicola Piovani
"Cockblocked by this unknown woman, Anaïs ends the affair and resolves to get acquainted with Emilie instead. Having convinced herself, after reading Emilie’s collected works, that they are true kindred spirits, Anaïs abandons all other responsibilities -- including her job and her doting, cancer-stricken mother (Anne Canovas) -- to stalk the older woman at an elite literary convention in the countryside, gradually ingratiating herself with a zeal that brings to mind an adorable, espadrille-wearing Alex Forrest. Is she borderline psychotic or simply flailing for human connection? Bourgeois-Tacquet resists making the call. The film’s sunny, wistful tone never wavers, the sweet strings of Nicola Piovani’s score carry on apace, while Noé Bach’s warm, hazy-afternoon lensing consistently casts our heroine’s exploits, quite literally, in the best possible light."
Guy Lodge, Variety
DOCTOR STRANGE IN THE MULTIVERSE OF MADNESS - Danny Elfman
"Also amping up the sense of fun is Danny Elfman’s delirious score and some (we hope knowingly) cheesy dialogue. And the much-publicised cameos -- yes, there are plenty -- should thrill comic-book lovers used to seeing random heroes pop up in one-issue storylines."
Hannah Flint, Time Out London
"The powers of Doctor Strange (as manifested in his first film and subsequent appearances in other Marvel projects) allow filmmakers to create M.C. Escher–esque kaleidoscopes of collapsing reality, and Raimi absolutely takes advantage of the opportunities to send everyone and everything on screen helter-skelter. There’s a memorably trippy montage of Dr. Strange and America falling through universe after universe, with different styles of architecture, cinematography (by John Mathieson, 'Detective Pikachu'), and even the physical makeup of the characters themselves. 'Multiverse of Madness' is at its best in those all-too-rare moments when that madness comes through, with Danny Elfman’s spot-on score offering just the right support to both the heroics and the trippiness."
Alonso Duralde, The Wrap
"There’s still more: occult rites and ancient runes, high-altitude sanctums and acid-washed visuals, plus a bevy of out-there cameos that Raimi uses to poke fun at the elasticity of the multiverse. (It’s hardly a spoiler to note that it wouldn’t be a Raimi film if his favorite muse, Bruce Campbell, didn’t turn up in a scene or two.) There are also some deliciously pustular visions, including a few zombie- and wraith-like denizens who wouldn’t look out of place in Raimi’s 'Evil Dead' movies. If Scott Derrickson, the director of 2016’s 'Doctor Strange,' teased out the altered states and Far East mysticism in Steve Ditko and Stan Lee’s original comic books, then Raimi has found in this sequel a surprisingly accommodating vehicle for his ecstatic love of horror filmmaking (to say nothing of a darkly exultant score by Danny Elfman)."
Justin Chang, Los Angeles Times
"As the film goes on, it starts to embrace these Raimi-isms until the third act unleashes some of the director's most recognizable visual quirks in all their glory. It's silly, it's gory, it's a little 'Evil Dead,' a little 'Darkman,' and it's refreshingly cornball in a way that Marvel rarely is. It might be Raimi copping on his own directorial flairs within a Marvel movie -- but at least he does it with style. Paired with Danny Elfman's fizzy score, Raimi elevates 'Multiverse of Madness' from the bridge-building bit of IP it so transparently is. While he doesn't quite elevate it to the 'madness' that the film promises, he does, for a few brief, shining moments, show the kids how those superhero movies could be done."
Hoai-Tran Bui, Slashfilm.com
"In this movie, tentacles roil, specters scream, skeletons taunt, and eldritch hands seek, grasp, and pull. Goofy body-horror deaths -- a tasting menu’s worth -- play to delighted gasps. There are at least two moments where characters look straight out of the screen and make eye contact with the audience. The camera swoops across scenes, delivers POV shots from the oddest of entities, and transitions from sequence to sequence via occasionally dreamlike leaps. Particularly memorable is an entire magical duel accomplished through animated musical notes, underscored (ho ho) by the work of composer Danny Elfman."
Susana Polo, Polygon.com
"It’s weird that so many Sam Raimi fans were hoping for a return to his horror auteur form considering (1) we’ve seen a bunch of skilled indie filmmakers squish their vision into the Marvel frame for a big paycheck and (2) Raimi is known to the wider film-watching public as the guy that made the original Spider-Man trilogy. It’s weirder still that the horror fans were kinda right to be hopeful: The second and third acts are full of horror imagery, jump scares and a Bruce Campbell cameo (and fellow Raimi collaborator Danny Elfman does the score). One of my favorite things about the first' Doctor Strange' was that the introduction of magic into the MCU meant exciting psychedelic visuals. Multiverse of Madness alternates between being comparatively rudimentary and going past the original into the macabre. The later parts of the movie are sweet: There’s a zombie sorcerer with a cape made of ghouls. Part of me considers that an instant recommendation. Another visually and sonically captivating scene sees Strange fight yet another alternate version of himself. They enchant musical instruments and written musical notes, fighting with them while the score and sound direction sync up to punctuate it. It’s a cool audiovisual presentation that stands out from the literal gray background."
Kevin Fox Jr., Paste Magazine
FIRESTARTER - John Carpenter, Cody Carpenter, Daniel Davies
"In another highlight, John Carpenter and his son/bandmate Cody wrote the score for the new 'Firestarter,' a reflection of Carpenter’s willingness to work on movies as long as he can just do the fun parts, then back to watching basketball. (This Blumhouse production also shares quite a few behind-the-scenes personnel with the rebooted 'Halloween' franchise, further explaining the Carpenters’ presence on the project.) No matter how hard other people may try, no one can compose an uncanny-yet-catchy synth line like the man himself. Much as with Greyeyes, this movie probably doesn’t deserve John Carpenter, but it does benefit from his involvement."
Katie Rife, The Onion AV Club
"Nothing here really works. Even a surprisingly flat score from horror master John Carpenter (who was originally slated to direct the '84 version) can't save 'Firestarter' from being a colossal misfire."
Richard Whittaker, The Austin Chronicle
"The Blumhouse model is to keep budgets low, but they usually hire directors and productions teams who can hide the corners being cut with clever filmmaking choices. Not this time. 'Firestarter' just looks cheap -- in most ways, cheaper than the 1984 version -- with no memorable craft elements or decisions outside of a cool, ‘80s score from John Carpenter, Cody Carpenter, and Daniel Davies. The score deserved a movie that knew how to use it more effectively and with tighter visual language. Everything here is close-up, boring coverage in flatly written dialogue scenes, and the action is even worse. It’s often hard to decipher what the hell is happening when things are supposed to be getting intense and director Keith Thomas does a miserable job with geography (largely because of the close-up, reverse shot structure that never puts two people in a frame in a room)."
Brian Tallerico, RogerEbert.com
"That can’t be said about the disorientingly hazy shallow-focus photography, which reflects a sense of paranoia building up within the characters, if to a distracting extent. And once 'Firestarter' decides to get up and go, it never shakes off the timidity of its style and pacing. Similarly inert is the film’s score by John Carpenter, Cody Carpenter, and Daniel Davies. John Carpenter was attached to direct the 1984 film before he was let go from the project due to 'The Thing' underperforming at the box office, and for those who’ve always wondered just what his 'Firestarter' might have looked like, the flavorless soundscape doesn’t give a single clue."
Rocco T. Thompson, Slant Magazine
"I have not read the King novel, but this film feels less like an adaptation of the novel and more like a remake of the feature film. I swear, there were some lines of dialogue that were ripped from the 1984 film for this one. This film was tightened up from the original, getting rid of a good half-hour of the runtime, which was necessary. The 2022 version also upped the gore content -- just a little bit, enough to justify the R rating it received. And of course, the score by John and Cody Carpenter, simply can’t be beat."
Alyse Wax, Collider
"The best one can probably say for the new 'Firestarter' is that it gives John Carpenter, who almost directed the original (before 'The Thing' flopped in theaters), an opportunity to write a score for the film he never made. (Cody Carpenter and Daniel A. Davies are credited as his co-composers.) It’s a decent score, and it sure sounds like an old-school John Carpenter riff, but it’s not so mind-blowingly amazing that it justifies the existence of the inert remake underneath it. It just happens to be one of the few burning embers in this pile of ashes."
William Bibbiani, The Wrap
"Thomas, who previously made the effectively spooky low-budget ghost story 'The Vigil,' handles the horror parts of 'Firestarter' reasonably well. Whenever Charlie loses her cool (so to speak), her skin-melting fury is as gory and nightmarish as it should be. And the production has scored a coup in enlisting the legendary horror director and soundtrack composer John Carpenter to provide one of his hauntingly minimalist scores, co-written with his son Cody Carpenter and Daniel Davies."
Noel Murray, Los Angeles Times
"King’s tale, far from his best, made more sense as a 1970s hangover, a portrait of a family man feeling the side effects of a decade reshaped by hallucinogens and Watergate. To that end, it at least sounds era-appropriate: the throbbing synth score comes courtesy of none other than John Carpenter. Close your eyes and you can almost pretend you’re watching a proper King adaptation, like the killer-car classic Carpenter directed a lifetime ago."
A.A. Dowd, Empire
"The best thing that can be said about this new iteration of 'Firestarter' is that it at least gave us a new score by John Carpenter, Cody Carpenter, and Daniel A. Davies. The rest feels like a waste of a talented cast and crew that somehow, against all odds, makes the 1984 film seem like a staggering achievement in the realm of King adaptations."
Richard Newby, The Onion AV Club
"One must ask why now? It’s usually hitting below the belt to blame a movie’s marketing. You should review the work at hand. But the ads for 'Firestarter' have tried to sell it as a superhero flick, and in its dialogue, the script acknowledges that bent. Everything else, from the score composed by John and Cody Carpenter, and Daniel Daviesi -- one of the few highlights -- to the engaging performance by Greyeyes, never really congeals with the artistically bankrupt, quick-fix work of trying to ramp this movie toward the mega-dollar superhero zeitgeist."
Robert Daniels, The Playlist
"But these situational plot turns are very cut-and-dried kindling. The new 'Firestarter' is a mom-and-dad-and-feral-kid-undercover story that turns into a dad-and-daughter-on-the-run road movie, and the whole thing plays like 'Logan' done in the worst humdrum rhythmless made-for-streaming generic style, the lighting flat, the soundtrack heavy with John Carpenter’s old-school one-man-at-the-synthesizer horror music, because if you took that sound of processed dread away you wouldn’t have much else."
Owen Gleiberman, Variety
"Speaking of Christine, the 1983 film version was directed by John Carpenter, who was slated to direct the original 'Firestarter' until Universal got cold feet after the disappointing box-office of 'The Thing.' In a nicely poetic touch, Carpenter, along with his musical collaborators Cody Carpenter and Daniel Davies, has provided a terrifically spooky electronic music score for this effort -- perhaps its most distinguished element."
Frank Scheck, The Hollywood Reporter
MONTANA STORY - Kevin Morby
“Montana Story” operates best as a ticking time bomb juxtaposed tonally from Kevin Morby’s plaintive melodic score. The siblings often veer close to laying out their true grievances, and the closer they arrive, the sharper the jagged, rugged landscape becomes, and the colder the skin-smearing wind sounds. Their ping-pong game of nasty words — at one point Erin alludes to Cal belonging in the lowest circle of Dante’s Hell, where the betrayers of special relationships reside — comes to a head during a bitter lightning storm that causes a power outage in the home. Richardson’s spontaneous overflow of emotions is a gut punch, while Teague’s slow emotional build to fall in a landfill of grief is acutely measured.
Robert Daniels, IndieWire
"The story unfolds at a measured pace, alert to every unspoken feeling of the mostly taciturn characters, with Kevin Morby’s folky score and a handful of songs delicately coloring the mood."
David Rooney, The Hollywood Reporter
