I think that the main theme (the first part of it) sounds way too similar to Silvestri's score for Van Helsing... It grows after a while, but the annoyance remains. (Temp track?) Minus a half star for that. I'm not fond of the horror music either, especially at the end of such a beautiful track as The Climb.

All in all, I say a ***1/5-star soundtrack with many ****1/5-star tracks. Still the best score so far this year. Favourite tracks: Logo Mania, To cloister, The Climb, Story of Giants, The Power of the Crown, and The New King / Stories.
