Hit: 5 Stars
I think it needs to be said, both for this soundtrack, and for this movie, that it was leaps ahead of its predecessor. Both get a lot of flack for riffing on the movies that spawned them and bringing back similar motifs and moments, but neither seems to get the appreciation for taking the series back to their roots. I was overjoyed sitting in the theater, having just sat through the first Predator again the night before, and hearing loving adaptations of Silvestri and Horner's themes.
The first film was reviled for butchering it's source material, but this one seems to be hated because it stayed too close. What do you people really want? Any movie with the word 'versus' in the title is already advertising itself as action slugfest and hardly a landmark of mood or substance. However, AVPR seemed to be reaching out for both despite being trapped in the wake of its predecessor and movie executives.Brian Tyler scored a rollicking, action packed piece of soundtrack, that while very busy, I found very well composed. It brings a sense of tactile urgency to the action, like two great cataclysms colliding with one another. The score is loud, beastly and fast. It's also very long, which is a good thing in my book, and the tracks are out of order on this CD, which is unfortunate.
Brian Tyler can score my monster on monster action movies any day of the week. I'm eagerly awaiting his score for Rambo. I think this film and its soundtrack will come into its own after a few years pass and the hate dies down. Hell, I've even managed to sit through the first AVP a second time without totally hating it, though I laugh with great abandon throughout. It was on par with, if not more entertaining and brisker, than Predator 2 and far more in line with the tone of both series than Alien Resurrection.
