Free Music Notes for The Bourne UltimatumFree Music Review: Excellent Soundtrack for an Excellent Movie!!!!! Hit: 5 Stars
The movie was awesome...the soundtrack is awesome...makes you think how creative people must be to come up with this masterpiece of a movie. John Powell is really good at creating soundtracks. I can't even begin to think how he can come up with all these awesome different tracks.
Also, did anyone notice that Powell used a bit from his X3- The Last Stand movie soundtrack "Phoenix Rises" and "Dark Phoenix's Tragedy." You can hear it in the movie, X3, when the Professor says to Jean "Jean...let me in," at the battle in Jean's house. In Ultimatum, it's at the end of the movie when Bourne is running on the roof trying to escape from the facility and is being chased by the other Treadstone agent. This piece actually fits really well.
Free Music Review: Dynamic score Hit: 5 Stars
As I watched Bourne Ultimatum I was struck by how similar this soundtrack sounded to the first two, particularly Supremacy. I was hesitant to order the disc, but upon listening to it, while some themes are retained from the first two films, they have been re-arranged brilliantly. This is a top-notch soundtrack, evoking all of the energy and emotion of the film, and is a worgty addition to the other two Bourne soundtracks.

Free Music Review: Fitting Conclusion Hit: 4 Stars
For the final Bourne installment, Powell naturally went with the basics of Bourne music, but manages here to flesh them out, giving his themes more room to breathe, and even a little more underlying orchestration. The CD plays out like a memo to Powell from Hans Zimmer, suggesting a few "epic" notes and additions to themes from time to time. This score doesn't have the tense "togetherness" of the previous scores, and certainly isn't as enjoyable as Supremacy (which is still the best of the three). The music has a tendency to blend a little into the background, but it's still a great soundtrack.
A couple of tracks that stand out are "Man vs. Man" and "Tangiers". "Waterloo" is good, but a bit long and incoherent.
Two things stand out however with regards to criticism of the CD: 1) the tracks are all out of order, and 2) at least a good third of Ultimatum uses score pieces from the previous two Bourne films (notably "The Apartment" from Identity and "Bim Bam Smash" from Supremacy, easily inserted in the appropriate places, once you figure out the order.) I'm also not crazy about the "Extreme Ways" redux, but that's just my opinion. I like the original mix a little better.
