Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

Schwarzenegger's time-travelling, world-wrecking cyborg is back in Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines, but most of the original film's creative team and cast have been replaced here, with Italian-born composer Marco Beltrami (who's cut his journeyman chops on a raft of contemporary SF/horror films and sequels, including the Scream franchise, Joy Ride, and Resident Evil) being a sage choice to score this third instalment.

Pumping Brad Fiedel's brooding original theme with even more menace, the composer proceeds to forge a massive, unsettling panorama of percussion-driven, electronic suffused orchestral fury that evokes an unsettling, mechanized world gone mad. Sounding like the symphonic sensibilities of Prokofiev and Shostakovich as interpreted by the mechanised forges and stamping machines of some hellish assembly line, Beltrami uses the most aggressive elements of 20th century Russian romanticism here like a steel club. There are moments of stem-winding suspense and surprisingly tranquil respites, but the main attraction is the sturm und drang of Beltrami's furious and often other-worldly action music. Also included are the gentle acoustic ballads "Open to Me" and "I Told You" by Dillon Dixon and Mia Julia, respectively, performances that seem jarringly out of place contrasted against the score's orchestral metal-fest. --Jerry McCulley

5.0 out of 5 stars Beltrami's own voice shines through, 13 Jun 2008
By Mr. Warren M. Fisher (East Grinstead, West Sussex United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
As a fan of Brad Fiedel's scores for the first two Terminator movies, I approached the change of hands to young turk Marco Beltrami (born 1966) with with some trepidation. I needn't have worried, as although the score isn't as pioneering as Fiedel's, Beltrami is a rare talent and he produces a score that is not just fitting, it is among his best work. Indeed the score was the best thing about the disappointing movie, and ultimately Beltrami's music, all grinding industrial minimalism and plaintive strings, doesn't just stand up against Fiedel's, it may even eclipse them.

Dark, evocative and compelling, Beltrami is a composing orginal, a talent to watch and to marvel at.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent., 1 Mar 2004
By A Customer
The soundtrack for the movie T2 was one the first Cd's I ever listen to and I have also had the T1 one soundtrack for some time. I know what to compare this CD too.

It is possible the best of the three. The action music isn't quite up to T2's standard and it may not have nightmarish ambience of the first but it does compare well overall. The great success of this score is that it more than does the movie justice. John Connors tragic theme is wonderfully emotion and the darker theme music (though not used in the film) more than survives comparison with the other scores.

The two poppy tunes at the end offer a nice contrast to the sci-fi tracks and all in all it is good soundtrack.

4.0 out of 5 stars Terminator 3 score as good as the first 2 soundtracks?, 24 Feb 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines (Audio CD)
When I found out Brad Fiedel wasn't returning to score T3, I was really disappointed. Fiedel's theme for T1 and T2 has to be my favourite film theme. I feared that the new composer-Marco Beltrami-might start completely afresh and create a score without a trace of that theme. I have to say, Beltrami has done a great job imitating Fiedel's technique, but also making it different enough to be his own score. I'm quite keen on his new theme for the film, but what really shines on this CD is his remix of Fiedel's T2 theme on track 19. It's the best version of it I've ever heard. My only complaint is that this is the only point on the CD where it appears, but the music for the film's action cues is also in some ways superior to what Fiedel ever composed. Another nice touch is the addition of two source music songs at the end of the CD. They play in the background during storybuilding scenes of the movie.
It's a pity the film wasn't as great as we were all hoping, but it could have been far worse. If you like the music to the first two films and are looking for more music along the same lines and more of that great theme, I recommend this.
