Hey, reviewer...Come on...add 2 more star to the review of this classic Danny Elfman score. It deserves at least a 4 star rating. Why are you doing this? You are supposed to be a moderna soundtrack fan. So you rate "Rio" by John Powell with 3 stars (just an example) and when reviewing the "Batman Returns" CD you rate it with 2 stars?This just seems like a bad joke...

I completely agree with you. I have collected and listened to soundtracks almost all my life and this soundtrack is definitely among my top five. I can only think of few other soundtracks that are at this level of excellence and brilliance: Braveheart, LOTR, Empire Strikes Back, The Last Samurai, Fantastic Beasts Where to Find Them, and How to Train Your Dragon for instance. This website lost credibility to me after reading this review ('Rio' is light-years behind this masterpiece from Danny Elfman).

Dont you understand that when a soundtrack doesnt contain strong heroic theme, which repeats every 5 minutes, it is inferior?
