> When I reviewed this movie for the paper I write for I gave it no stars. Not zero stars -- no stars, because I couldn't count it as it's own fucking movie. It was a more shameful shot-for-shot remake than Gus van Sant's Psycho, yet instead of getting a public flocking like he did, it was awarded 1 billion dollars. I hated hated hated it -- and the score pissed me off, too. I refused to rank it in my year end list because, for me, it was a 1994 score I'd already heard a million times, with some slight gussying up and worse renditions of the songs.

I watched it for the first time as part of getting introduced to the score. It didn't even meet my low expectations.

I think you're being a bit harsh on the score though, which is maybe the only thing about the film that isn't a note-for-note reprisal.
