you are absolutely right, he has done this before, while he was "reviewing" the pirates of the Caribbean score, he completely missed the fact that the Tribal war piece from Black hawk down has been orchestrated and played the exact same note for note in POC, i think this happens mostly with him bec. he concentrates more and more on what he thinks is good and bad and to tell us how to Feel towards the music, which should not be told to any one, its ur own experience, he simply gave it a 4 bec. it is his type of score, fully orchestral, loud till headaches and brassy. other than this, every other score to him is a failure, specially if its from zimmer or his collaborators, im sick of this guy and his reviews.
