Editorial Reviews :
James Bond has never been cooler - and neither has a soundtrack in the action hero's series of blockbuster films. The title is track by Madonna, who has a cameo in the movie. Along with a score by one-time Bjork collaborator David Arnold, it also features the classic James Bond Theme remixed by cutting edge dance master Paul Oakenfold. The CD is also enhanced with Madonna's 'Die Another Day' music video, the making of the video segment, Bond bonus extras, women of Bond gallery and more. Warner Bros. 2002.
Buyer Reviews :
This review is for about the CD content rather than David Arnold's score. The score definitely moves more electronic than TWINE, but it still sounds great and Track 3, which features the gunbarrel music, blew me away on the first listening. You'll want to play many tracks loud. As of this writing, I have not seen the film, but the music stands up on its own. Well done, Mr. Arnold.
The CD itself, alas, is lacking. Oh, its fine if you're a Madonna fan and buy a CD soundtrack for enhanced features that CD-Rom technology offers, but isn't the soundtrack supposed to be just that? The CD itself is an even 55 minutes. David Arnold wrote 100 minutes of score for the film, of which 45 minutes are captured on this CD. The title song runs 4+ minutes and then the 4+ minute Paul Oakenfield remix. Sounds great, but to my knowledge is not in the film so why use the space. The CD-Rom extras are the space hogs here. Bond and soundtrack aficianados would have much preferred an 80 minute CD with 1 song and more score. I know I would have.
