What You Will Hear: At 1:08 of One Rejected Knight, McKenzie dips into David Julyan's Memento, specifically Opening Titles/Polaroid Fades. The clichés continue around 0:24 of The Poor Are First To Suffer And First To help with a rhythmic device similar to Don Davis' The Matrix. Also, several tracks nod towards Randy Edelman's overrated Dragonheart.
Standout Tracks: Clans Stirred To War, Wrong Assumptions, Desires Can Spoil a Dream and a Heart Will you be humming along? No. From top to bottom, this score seems completely unmemorable. The piece this makes me want to dust off: The Island of Dr. Moreau - Gary Chang Will I come back to it? No. For the most part, Dragon Heart 3: The Sorcerer's Curse sounds like an underachieving television score. When the themes need to be big, McKenzie sounds the retreat. |
