, April 30, 2002Reviewer: darth_nass - See all darth_nass's reviewsFor one, this is the first soundtrack I ever bought before the movie is released, so I thought this was a real treat! For one, most will agree this one is totally different and new compared to the other Star Wars sountracks.
From my point of view, John Williams composed the score in the style of many other composers - composers of today, and long past! If you are asking which composers, I will be glad to answer here. He does stuff you would hear from Elliot Goldenthal, James Horner, Elmer Bernstein, Bernard Hermann, Alan Silvestri, and Howard Shore.
Now let's go into the content of the music. One thing I find particularly really inventive is the use of the electric guitar (track 3) and other various electric sounding instruments heard briefly throughout the cd. The mood for one is definately something else. It is darker, yet it all does have a light touch to it all. The love theme is one to remember definately. You will hear some themes from Phantom Menace again periodically - it sounds superb when they put a brief part of Duel of the Fates in track 10! But themes from the trilogy (Yoda's for example in track 4) are heard here and there. And do I need to mention which trilogy theme you'll find? Shorter than Phantom Menace, more impact than ever anticipated, this CD is too good to be true. Die hard Star Wars fans need this one truly. As for Attack of the Clones itself, I know this one will be an uprise in history. Buy it, and enjoy.... ...

Pro Reviews: Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones
| EXPERT RATING: From AMG Reviews Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones is the fifth score that John Williams has written for George Lucas' Star Wars series and, by this point, he knows the lay of the land. Not just that, but his themes for the series -- from the main title to the march of the Storm Troopers -- are embedded in the consciousness of any filmgoer, so he could be excused for coasting and delivering simply what is expected of him on this score, given that it arrives five films into the series. But, The Phantom Menace changed that for the entire franchise by not quite living up to expectations. Visually, it was a knockout, but by many standards, it was a flat origin story, highlighted by some great flights of fancy. Judged on its own, however, Williams' score was quite impressive, particularly because it introduced a legitimate new masterwork in "The Duel of Fates" section. Given this, he didn't have much to prove with Attack of the Clones, but he still outdoes himself here (hopefully mirroring the reported rejuvenation of the series with this film), producing a thrilling atmospheric score that is so effective, it feels as if you're watching the film unfold before your eyes, even if you've never seen it before. Williams doesn't broaden his palette the way he did with Phantom Menace, where he spent a lot of time with African drums, but instead consolidates the strengths of the series, occasionally adding an unexpected twist -- such as the squalling electric guitar on "Zam the Assassin and the Chase through Coruscant" -- while developing another seemingly classic theme with its "Love Theme" (perhaps sappy, but effective all the same). This is enough, since it's an exciting, dramatic score that telegraphs the rush of the full film as effectively as watching the film. [Spoiler Warning Although the track listing doesn't go to the extreme of Episode I, which actually gave away Qui-Gon's death with a track title, the tracks of this album do give away the structure of the film through its titles, even if no explicit twists are revealed.] - Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide |

I must say, this one is better than the TPM soundtrack. Could it be better than the ESB soundtrack? Well, it depends on your taste, but if you are a Star Wars fan, get this one. Attack of the Clones has a great soundtrack and hopefully it will be a great movie.
