> Widows (2018) - *½

Remember nothing about this one, though I'm sure I listened to it back in the day. From your rating and description... apparently I missed nothing.

> Tomb Raider (2018) - ***½

I remember being one of the few to give this a higher rating than "horrible" when it came out, though my main issue at the time was the mixing. Perhaps I need to revisit Raider, as I remember it having some fun parts to it.

My original review:

> Mortal Engines (2018) - ***½

Ah, I remember when this came out and the schism of people who loved it and those that were... more cool to it. I was in the latter category though I noted it was a major step in the right direction for Holkenborg. The stupid oppressive "wall of sound" mixing on the album was a major detracting element for me... again.

Finally watched the film last year and enjoyed the score in-context a lot more. Also Engines wasn't nearly as bad as I thought it would be... just more derivative and forgettable than anything outside of a few key moments (the final battle is a doozy).

Again, my take from 2018:

> Alita: Battle Angel (2019) - ****

Ahh... now this. THIS is good.

Still one of my favorites from Tom and a near perfect blending of his symphonic meddling and electronic tendencies. Memorable and versatile Main theme really helps but also the orchestrations are finally really great. The only drawback is "Motorball", but it's also basically a source cue so I suppose one can let it slide.

Incidentally, we agree on the rating for this!
