Advantages: lovely to listen to

Disadvantages: you cannot say there are any

The film to start off with was one of a kind with Russell Crow playing the powering and mighty Maximus. However, how powerful, emotional and breathtaking he was all depended massively on they music that complimented his actions and followed him through out the film.

There are 17 great tracks on the album and they were all written solely by the genius Hans Zimmer. He has also been involved with music from the 'Last Samurai' which again he expresses an excellent feeling that compliments so perfectly the actions taking place.

The soundtrack to gladiator is so peaceful and warm. The music has been written with so much passion. Each track gives its own ambiance. When there are fighting scenes where you need to feel pumped with Adrenalin the tracks are big and powerful with deep brass that resonates unforgettably around your ear drums.

This album is beautiful but it works even better in the film. I would recommend it if you want a chilled out CD. The tracks are often quiet and still which is easy to listen to and slow which calms you down.

The film has a lot of sadness in it and the tracks compliment this mood very well.

Summary: lovely sound track works perfectly with the film
