Jackman for me is one of those composers who has a ton of really brilliant highlights throughout his career, but seldomly has an entire 4 or 5 star score. Kingsman 2, Wreck-It Ralph, Strange World, Puss in Boots, Birth of a Nation (which I’m surprised wasn’t covered) and probably X-Men are the only ones that I think crack the 4-star rating. I may even put Uncharted 4 up there too.

However, there’s a number of cues I’d put in 4-5 star range:
1. The Legacy of Nat Turner (Birth of a Nation)
2. Civil War (Cap 3)
3. The Comedown (Cherry)
4. Jumanji Suite (Jumanji TNL)
5. Battle of Skull Island (Kong: Skull Island)
6. The Puss Suite (Puss in Boots)
7. To Dust I Will Return (Trial by Fire)
8. The Twelve Towers (Uncharted 4)
9. Mutant and Proud (X-Men FC)
10. Sugar Rush Showdown (Wreck-It Ralph)
& some more…
