Music reviews of The Happening
Music Review: Average score
Rating: 3 Stars
Howard's score for The Happening is similar to his other works, especially those where he teamed up with M. Night Shyamalan. He composed music for The Village, Signs, and The Lady in the Water. Most of the album is quiet and hard to hear without the experience of the film to back it up. When listening to it, it's hard to know when one track ends and another begins. Most of the album seems to be one long track of quiet music. "Mrs. Jones" and the "End Title Suite" are the highlights of the album, but overall it's good, albeit, quiet stuff.
James Newton Howard is one of the premiere composers in the film industry, most recently scoring I Am Legend and Shrek the Third.
Description of The Happening
Returning to the collaboration that spawned his acclaimed scores for such films as The Sixth Sense, Signs, The Village (Academy Awardr nominee) and Lady In The Water, composer James Newton Howard reaches another career milestone with this major new opus. From director M. Night Shyamalan (The Sixth Sense, Signs) comes a lightning paced, heart-pounding paranoid thriller about a family on the run from an inexplicable and unstoppable event that threatens not only humankind, but the most basic human instinct of them all: survival. It begins with no clear warning. It seems to come out of nowhere. In a matter of minutes, episodes of strange, chilling deaths that defy reason and boggle the mind in their shocking destructiveness, erupt in major American cities.Movie Scores CDs
