I dunno -- I've always felt like after Glory (one of my very favorite movies, ever), James Horner decided he would just re-use the same score over and over again in every movie he did. If you listen to a lot of his stuff, it's often very, very similar, and not just stylistically either. I think there's a real lack of originality in a lot of Horner's work.


Which doesn't mean I think it isn't a _good_ movie soundtrack. It's just the same one.
