According to a Hollywood tradition that stretches all the way back to From Here to Eternity, there's never been anything quite so romantic as the idyllic days and hours before torpedo and dive bombers from the Japanese Imperial Navy blew the bejesus out of the unsuspecting U.S. fleet anchored at Pearl Harbor. Far be it for producer Jerry Bruckheimer and director Michael Bay to, er, rock the boat. Just as Bruckheimer and Bay did with Armageddon (where romance blossomed in the idyllic days and hours before a Texas-sized asteroid threatened to blow the bejesus out of Earth itself), they've again turned to über-hitmaker Diane Warren to set the tone; as sung by Faith Hill, "There You'll Be" strikes the perfect balance of apocalyptic bathos, as instantly inviting--and ultimately hollow--as an 89-cent chocolate bunny. Composer Hans Zimmer fares a bit better, though his piano dirge and orchestral score occasionally get mired in the syrup as they build toward the inevitable. The action sequences themselves are somewhat subdued (especially by previous Zimmer standards), with "December 7th" even echoing Platoon and Barber's Adagio for Strings. Crucially, Zimmer evokes the tragic loss that goes hand in hand with heroism, often no mean feat in a modern computer-effects-laden, megabudget blockbuster-in-waiting. --Jerry McCulley

 Pearl Harbor Soundtrack October 15, 2009
Iris C. Fulks
The soundtrack didn't include all of the music in the movie but it did a darn good job of capturing the most moving pieces. I felt it was more like a musical score versus sound track. I would definitely recommend it to a friend. For the most part it is very relaxing and very enjoyable.

The music from this soundtrack is highly recommended if when upon first seeing the movie the music got stuck inside your head. Highly relaxing music.

If God were a composer June 13, 2008
H. Swanson (Galway)
It's been years since the release of the film, and I still hesitate to leave home without tracks from this CD. Whenever I get a new Mp3 player, some of these songs are the first to be transferred. This may seem a bit extreme, but just give it a try, and I think you'll find the pieces on this soundtrack to be so beautiful that they deserve a perminant place in your life. (For those instramental music fans, you'll understand what I'm saying - these are the kind of songs that apply to you always, no matter where you are and what you're going through, and they touch you all the more deeply because of it.) They are simply beautiuful and emotional, and that's that.
While all have a great stillness about them, tracks 2-5 begin the CD with a mellower sound; the mood picks up at track 6, and continues through 9, in such a way that you feel you have been on a journey, as cliche as that sounds. But this is certainly why Hans Zimmer is my favorite composer. He's brilliant!
But please don't get me wrong -- all of what I'm saying has nothing to do with "Pearl Harbor" the movie. In fact, you'd be better off to wipe the entire movie out of your mind while listening. Don't let the fact that there are only 9 tracks turn you off, because I hope you can tell by now that it's worth its weight in gold.
The ONLY flaw with this soundtrack is track #1, Faith Hill's "There You'll Be." It's got no business being with the others; send it to its own pop album. But get this soundtrack, go to a quiet place, close your eyes, and enjoy.

The soundtrack to Pearl Harbor is movie music at its schmaltziest. I've not seen the movie, but if the music on this CD is any indication, it must be like attending a funeral. This is quite possibly the most sentimental soundtrack I've ever heard. We can, I suppose, all use a little maudlin music from time to time, although I would have preferred a little more variation in tone from track to track.
In considering my rating, I opted for 4 stars rather than 3 because there are some really nice tracks here. I've purchased many soundtracks that are all noise and percussion with limited music. This, at very least, does not fail in that regard. In the end, I will likely mix this album with other soundtrack files for a little more variation than what is provided here. Still, I liked it well enough to recommend it.
