5 stars!
"Outstanding"
I'm a huge fan of exciting, masculine scores that contain great melodies and this score delivers 100%.
The amount of music on the Soundtrack cannot be every cue, because I seem to remember that there was almost wall-to-wall music and the movie was over 2 hours!
Jablonsky uses electronics extensively but incorporates it effectively with orchestral instruments.
The opening title music is especially good. I has a strong melody and gives us a feeling that we are in for an adventure. This melody is repeated often through the movie and is used perfectly.
Jablonsky's score has a feel of Hans Zimmer, which I love. There just so happens to be a thank you in the end credits to Hans Zimmer.
Steve Jablonsky, keep up the good work.
