Maybe Zimmer has no innovations up his sleeve, so get over with it.
I am no Zimmer-man, fyi, but I seem to be just different in that sense that I try to find something of interest in whatever it is I get presented with. You are right, it might be that Zimmer is being careful and lazy, but he still gets some nice material out of it, so why care? And there are loads of other scores out there, if you don't like it.
By the way, I must say that the points "soundtrack with the movie" are a bit low. The sound Zimmer has made fits perfectly with the movie! You think that Nolan, an intellect himself, would accept the music if he didn't think it fitted in. Is Clemmenson also the movie goeroe to have knowledge of what music works for which movie?
But in the end, it's a review, and his opinion. And I respect that. But when looking at the amount of text he wrote! In that case I say again, get over it, leave ZImmer for what he is, and enjoy life.
