Synopsis

Album Description

Batman Begins explores the origins of the Batman legend and the Dark Knight's emergence as a force for good in Gotham. In the wake of his parents' murder, disillusioned industrial heir Bruce Wayne (Christian Bale) travels the world seeking the means to fight injustice and turn fear against those who prey on the fearful. He returns to Gotham and unveils his alter-ego: Batman, a masked crusader who uses his strength, intellect and an array of high tech deceptions to fight the sinister forces that threaten the city. The score features music composed by Hans Zimmer and James Newton Howard.

CD Reviews

The Beginning

Christopher Price | 03/04/2010

(5 out of 5 stars)

"This score is a great one. They started the current Batman film franchise and got two great composers. This soundtrack definitely has many great songs. This review will give you an idea of what the score sounds like by giving you the details of three of the varied styles found in this soundtrack. "Eptesicus" gives the theme for the Batman Begins film, and has a lot of strings with occasional brass. It builds up from a quiet song into the full fledged Batman theme for the movie. "Lasiurus" is a song that I think reflects on Rha's al Ghul. It has his woodwind theme at the beginning, but moves into a deep, string filled piece. It is very quiet and beautiful music. This soundtrack also has the song "Molossus." This song is for some of the more action packed scenes. It has drums that have an alomst continuous beat, and various other instruments that enter and exit randomly to make it exciting and fast paced. This score gets its five stars for its variety and overall just great themes and music. I recommend this soundtrack to anyone who enjoys Batman or soundtracks in general."
