    The shadow of 24 looms over this movie. It can have two Oscar  winners
    in it but all I can think  of is Mr. Jack Bauer and his  hyper-charged
    Power  Hour  antics. The  influence  of the  hit  TV show  seeps  into
    Christophe Beck's score. The "Main  Title" opens with a brooding  bass
    line, suggesting a  combination of 24's  moody but valiant  horns with
    the low key  ambient vibe of  Cliff Martinez's work  (a combination of
    Traffic and Narc  specifically). Whether it  was a style  that was put
    upon Christophe Beck  by others or  his own choice,  Beck doesn't have
    anything shame in appropriating these elements and makes them his  own
    to play with.

    The score has the heavy mixture of strings mixed with electronic  drum
    loops that  have become  John Powell's  bread and  butter the last few
    years. This is a meat and potatoes type of score, the type that  Jerry
    Goldsmith excelled at. The three modes the score uses are tense action
    cues, slow moody builds  and contemplative lulls. The  only difference
    is that the electronics propel the rhythms. Unlike Alias or the Bourne
    albums, the electronics are  more random in nature.  "Summit Incident"
    uses the reverberating Run Lola  Run guitar rhythms. "No Second  Shot"
    uses  clanging metal  drums. Several  tracks ("Xavier  Calls" and" The
    Affair" among others)  have the trademark  Cliff Martinez sound  I can
    only describe  as 'random  taps and  pongs'. Only  at climatic moments
    does  a brass  section come  out and  dominate ("Maryland"  and  "City
    Hall").  This choice  actually makes  these brief  reprises much  more
    powerful.

    If I wasn't such  a fan of this  type of music, I  would probably rate
    this album lower  for fans of  more orchestrated fare.  And as a  good
    litmus test, if you're a fan  of the Bourne scores, then it  is likely
    you'll enjoy this album.  I've always had a  soft spot for Beck  since
    his work  on season  three and  four of  Buffy the  Vampire Slayer. He
    deserves rising in the ranks  of working composers, and moving  beyond
    comedies  into action  scores tends  to be  the first  step into  true
    legitimacy.
