   █           Director John McTiernan, fresh off his long stint            █
   █           on The 13th Warrior, provides a well-paced and               █
   █           nicely photographed film, bringing life to the               █
   █           minimal seven main filming locations. The ending             █

   █           best accompanied bits of filmmaking in recent                █
   █           time.Long time film composer, Bill Conti, whose              █
   █           credits include the Academy Award winning score to           █
   █           Rocky as well as one of my all time favorites, The           █
   █           Right Stuff, dusts of his baton and manuscript               █
   █           paper to lay down a fitting contemporary score.              █
   █           This is Conti's return to feature film scoring               █
   █           after a large gap in time, which included work as            █

   █           IMAX films and numerous television projects. It              █
   █           was a shock to the film music community when he              █
   █           was chosen to work on this film, with members of             █
   █           the Internet community wondering what kind of                █
   █           rabbit he'd pull out for this film, and it's                 █
   █           causing discussion and debate to this day.I                  █
   █           enjoyed the film, and it was the first film of the           █
   █           summer that I made a beeline to the music store to           █
   █           find out if the CD was in shelves. Unfortunately,            █
   █           it was delayed about four weeks after the release            █
   █           date of the film, but it's worth every bit of that           █
   █           time. As most score/song compilation CDs go, ARK21           █
   █           follows the plan of choice by providing the four             █
   █           songs, ranging from Sting's cover of ""Windmills             █
   █           Of Your Mind"" (written for the original 1968                █
   █           version) to the previously mentioned museum piece,           █
   █           ""Sinnerman"", performed by Nina Simone, and eight           █
   █           rather short score cues. For the worrisome, the              █
   █           main title cue is titled ""Black & White x 5"" on            █
   █           the CD and uniquely uses five pianos to introduce            █
   █           the main theme overlapped with four providing                █
   █           rhythm and the fifth containing the actual melody.           █
   █           I was reminded of Dave Grusin's work on The Firm             █
   █           as well as James Horner's Sneakers score, a simple           █
   █           rolling piano melody backed with an uplifting                █
   █           orchestra accompaniment. The theme is a pure                 █
   █           American construct, something that would not fit a           █
   █           film if it was set in Paris, London, or elsewhere            █
