Product Description
From Amazon.co.uk
If there's one thing film producers and record executives like more than Success, it's Success Part II. Thus when Ridley Scott's high-tech sword 'n' sandal epic Gladiator scored both Golden Globe wins and Academy Award nods for Best Film and Best Score, it was a sure bet that another volume of Hans Zimmer and Lisa Gerrard's music for the film couldn't be far behind. While not exactly leftovers, the tracks here sometimes point to the fact that there wasn't enough fresh material to fill this volume out, hence we get some remixed cues, a handful of familiar music with dramatic dialogue excerpts edited and superimposed (or misplaced, with decidedly mixed results), and even a beat-heavy, dance club mix of "Now We Are Free". With a little over half an hour of entirely fresh material and some souvenir dialogue snippets over the rest, there's enough here to please Gladiator die-hards. Also of note: guitarist Heitor Pereira's flamenco-flavored flourishes are better showcased throughout while "The Gladiator Waltz" serves up one of Zimmer's original synth demos (with a dash of Russell Crowe dialogue upfront), a dramatic amp-up of Holst's "Mars, the Bringer of War" that's a prime example of the composer's state-of-the-art digital orchestral conjuring. --Jerry McCulley
Chronique amazon.fr
Après le succès amplement mérité de la bande originale Gladiator, la firme Decca a décidé d'éditer un second volume More Music From The Motion Pictures: Gladiator. Ce second album propose tous les morceaux du film restés inédits. Cela commence avec "Duduk Of The North" qui ouvrait le péplum de Ridley Scott. On y retrouve la nonchalance du compositeur Hans Zimmer et toute sa verve électronique à narrer les aventures de Maximus. La chanson "Now We Are Free" est déclinée en plusieurs versions, dont un remix radio qui était uniquement disponible en vinyle. Les dialogues les plus savoureux viennent s'intercaler entre les morceaux. Impressionnant par ses thèmes, doté d'une richesse harmonique sidérante, Gladiator prend un envol avec ce second opus qui, au-delà de compléter le premier, s'impose comme un album parallèle, rempli de magnifiques pièces, "Rome Is The Light", avec la divine voix de Lisa Gerrard, "The Gladiator Waltz" ou encore le décoiffant "The Mob". Un album aussi essentiel qu'obligatoire. Didier Leprêtre

Thoroughly satisfying,

This review is from: Gladiator More Music From The (Audio CD)
I am a painter, (of pictures) who listens to music while working. I was addicted to "The Gladiator" score. Finally I broke down and ordered "More Music from The Gladiator". Every once in a while I do something really smart; and this was one time. This record is even better than the the first one; yes, it's possible. The combination of Hans Zimmer and Lisa Gerrard just can't be improved upon. I don't care that the sentence ends with a preposition. This music is tops. MOOD up to 'here'.

Neutral,

This review is from: Gladiator More Music From The (Audio CD)
I was hoping for great & extended things with the two Now We Are Free mixes, but, while both are good, they're not anything special. As for the rest of this "More Music..." record, I believe more score material without so many inserted movie actor lines would have made more sense for this release. Afterall, the entire script can be found on the film's DVD, and it's probably safe to say that most "More Music..." owners have the DVD. A big neutral for me ... waiting for "Even More Music from the Motion Picture Gladiator".

Better than the 1st sountrack CD, I think,
By ArtHarrison "ArtHarrison" (CA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Gladiator More Music From The (Audio CD)
This CD is magical, sensual, earthy, lush, gorgeous, absorbing, healing, exciting, relaxing, empowering and life affirming. All in one CD! I guess I'm about the only one who thinks this CD is more beautiful than the original soundtrack. I prefer it because it's got more sensual and meditative passages on it, less battle scoring. I like hearing the actor's voices, also. Such good acting, it combines with the music to take you far away, to another and much more exotic world.
