Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
Schwarzenegger's time-traveling, world-wrecking cyborg is back, but most of the original films' creative team and cast have been replaced here, with Italian-born composer Marco Beltrami (who's cut his journeyman chops on a raft of contemporary sci-fi/horror films and sequels, including the Scream franchise, Joy Ride, and Resident Evil) being a sage choice to score this third installment. Pumping Brad Fiedel's brooding original theme with even more menace, the composer proceeds to forge a massive, unsettling panorama of percussion-driven, electronic suffused orchestral fury that evokes an unsettling, mechanized world gone mad. Sounding like the symphonic sensibilities of Prokofiev and Shostakovich as interpreted by the mechanized forges and stamping machines of some hellish assembly line, Beltrami uses the most aggressive elements of 20th century Russian romanticism here like a steel club. There are moments of stem-winding suspense and surprisingly tranquil respites, but the main attraction is the sturm und drang of Beltrami's furious and often other-worldly action music. Also included are the gentle acoustic ballads "Open to Me" and "I Told You" by Dillon Dixon and Mia Julia, respectively, performances that seem jarringly out of place contrasted against the score's orchestral metal-fest. --Jerry McCulley

3 out of 5 stars Not one of Beltrami's best........2007-01-22

I'm a pretty big fan of Beltrami, but this soundtrack was a rather large disappointment.

The main fault is that Beltrami used a Hollywood in-studio symphony for the recording, but it doesn't sound full or grand enough... it sounds processed. Cheap. If he had recorded these epic sounds with a *real* symphony, like Williams or Morricone, I imagine this score would have been much better.

Maybe he was trying to deliberately go for a processed sound because the film is about machines taking over. Unfortunately, it just sounds tinny and thin and - at times - rather laughable. A shame, really.

The music itself isn't really that great either - he was working off of Fiedel's original score and trying to implement some new stuff, and that's admirable in and of itself, but this is one of his weaker efforts.

4 out of 5 stars Excellent work by Beltrami.......2006-06-24

Although Brad Fiedel - the composer of the first 2 Terminator soundtracks - has stepped aside fo T3, Marco Beltrami has ably stepped into the role & created a very respectable score for T3: Rise of the machines. The score still has a very 'mechanical' feel to it, which ably portrays the events in the movie as Skynet hijacks the Department of defense computers to start the nuclear war that will lead to the events wee all recognize with the Terminator series. A thoroughly likable CD!

3 out of 5 stars All SCORE, but few SONGS.......2006-01-01

Normally a Motion Picture Soundtrack comes in two varieties: SONGS from the Motion Picture Soundtrack, and the Motion Picture SCORE.
This soundtrack includes only the orchestral SCORE, which is quality stuff (as scores go), but if you're looking for those cool songs that set a comedic mood behind certain scenes, don't expect to find them on this CD.

Strangely, this CD DOES include two SONGS that seem to have little or nothing to do with the film (and which may or may not have played during the end credits):
"I Told You" performed by Dillon Dixon,
and "Can't Hide This" performed by Mega Jeff.

But this soundtrack CD omits the songs:
"Sugar," and "Party," performed by Peter Beckett,
"Macho Man" performed by the Village People,
"I told you" performed by Mia Julia,
"Dat Funky Man"
(the song heard in the background while the T-1000 pillages the convenience store) performed by William Randolph III, and
"The Current" performed by Blue Man Group.

Why on earth these tracks were not included on the T3 Soundtrack, or a separate "Songs From" CD isn't available, I cannot fathom.

5 out of 5 stars Awesome score! .......2005-12-21

One of My favorite scores is this one! Its exciting and has the listener's adrenaline following! Most of the tracks roll right into each other making no breaks in the score. Its loud and has good rhythm with mixed electronics and orchestra. A couple songs are located at the end of the CD. Fans of the performers should like them. Marco Beltrami's Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines score is an non-stop action packed listen from beginning end! Check it out!

4 out of 5 stars Song?.......2005-12-09

Does anyone know the song that is being played in the gas station store when the Terminator is going through the gas station stashing food? I really wish to know! If you can, send a review on amazon and tell me. Thanks!!!!!
