  Not to everyone's liking, but everyone mentions the loudness. Very aggressive, used to heighten the excitement and carry the tension of various scenes. Most all movies have music (Hurt Locker didn't) to accentuate and shape emotional content, but this is the first time I'm aware of that it is such a major tool of influence; intentionally made equal to the visuals. Maybe more than equal?

  • "Snowpiercer" is a superior film. You care about the central character, there is great drama, FX enhances - tinear 12:15:57 11/19/14 (2)

    instead of being the show, itself, about which humans merely orbit.
    "The Host" is by the same director and the finest modern "monster" film. Again, characters take center stage.

  I recently revisited the Runner... it is pure fantasy, no sci in it.
  
  In a faint hope of finding some sci I am now watching Apollo 18. Too early to say anything yet. I am staggering it with Borgia episodes.
