Music reviews of Atlantis: The Lost Empire
Music Review: 5 Gleaming Gold Stars!
Rating: 5 Stars
How could anyone possibly give this less than 4? It gets 5 stars from me. This album is full of fun and has some truly moving, heartfelt scores, including "The City of Atlantis", "The Secret Swim," and "The Crystal Chamber". Howard's usage of brass instrumentation is phenomenal and adds a depth often missing or misplaced in other comparable movies. I enjoy this soundtrack every time I listen to it, which is every few months. It's one I'll never give up. If you are a soundtrack fan, don't let this one slip by; at least give it a try. I suspect you will end up adding it to your collection.
Description of Atlantis: The Lost Empire
Though hampered by a sometimes predictable story line, Disney's animated telling of Plato's undersea legend deserves kudos for tackling the heady expectation surrounding modern action films and the artistic expressionism of Japanese anime, all the while maintaining a precarious sense of studio tradition and dedication to animation quality. Opening with the obligatory pop song ("Where the Dream Takes You," a serviceable slice of modern R&B boilerplate cowritten with master songwriter/boilermaker Diane Warren), James Newton Howard's rousing orchestral score at once recalls the traditions of previous Disney adventures such as 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. But Howard updates that tradition with alternating doses of tense, Williams-esque dynamics (particularly in the rousing "Leviathan"), and the sense of frequently playful wonder familiar from Dinosaur, his previous effort for the studio's animators. His evocative musical portraits of Atlantis often conjure the ghost of Bernard Herrmann at his most romantic and adventuresome, adding a sense of emotional gravity and a sophisticated air of exotic mystery unusual in most animated fare. --Jerry McCulleyDisney CDs
