Customer Review

Well, what can one say. Nicholas Hooper is definitely not a bad composer. He has the gift to compose the music for a certain mood. However, hand me his skills for this blockbuster is not enough. When I think back on as John Williams, who wrote the perfect soundtrack, that's nothing. The whole soundtrack is very simple. Hooper says that too. And that's what I do not like. Where are the unique and catchy melodies go? I admit that Hooper has composed yet good sounding pieces, as some choral pieces ect. , In the cinema, the music also had a great effect, sometimes even a very impressive. But the overall compositions are toooo simple, uninspired and nothing real new. It acts as "Swallowed". Surely you do not even make the absolute reinvention.

The simplicity is especially evident in the guitar solos. A simple melody, the only up and going. This scrap of music will be repeated over and over. So it goes with many pieces, so for example also "Farewell Dumbledore". I just miss Williams.

Overall, however, the music serves its purpose, accompanied the general mood. And that is the task of the film music. For this reason alone I think an assessment of only one star for inappropriate. Since the music also has great entertainment value, I give the score 3 stars.

Nevertheless, the soundtrack is better than the fifth. This here is a whole complex and produces more effect. Nevertheless, the bottom line is Letz finally only that Hooper has not done anything memorable or new. "Everything existed before" Hooper copied by Hans Zimmer from "The Da Vinci Code".

Hopefully John Williams returns to the seventh part. That Hooper definitely not the film music will be writing, is already known. Producer David Heyman said that Williams will write the soundtrack, he should have the time. We will see...
