James Newton Howard King Kong would have got together as a last-minute replacement for Howard Shore (who had obviously worked on Lord King Kong Peter Jackson, director of the Rings series). The good news is that Howard still managed to post a respectable score, the bad news is that it is not more than respectable. For some, the biggest disappointment that Howard has not found more inspiration in establishing the 1930 film. Once, when he inserts a guard jazzy flourish (the brief clarinet passages in "defeat is always momentary" for example), but the period detail is minimized. Have more may have contributed to the score of a much needed shot individuality. Action scenes, for example, attached to the richly orchestrated, frantic percussive rumble that is Hollywood short-hand, even the action scenes.
"The animal head" and "beauty killed the beast III" are only the most typical examples of this style: Howard gives these bravura numbers the intensity of strokes needed, but we can be blamed for feeling that we have heard dozens of times before? Similarly, the composer sticking to expect when you need to get more contemplative, as in "A decisive meeting" (soothing strings, soothing clarinet), or "Beautiful" (flutes to suggest the exotic destination). In short, this album is everything you expect it to be. That sometimes is not enough. - Elisabeth Vincentelli
