Rating: - A Classic Film Score
Raise The Titanic seems to be the perfect example of what happened to John Barry throughout the 1980's. Barry would create a magnificent score full of lush themes that would be amongst the best of his career. Yet, that score would be for a film that would end up being a box-office flop.

Rating: - As good as the Original

Rating: - John Barry's Score is fantastic
I happen to be a Richard Jordon fan so I enjoyed the movie ( yeah, I am part of that minority). There are subtle differences in this complete film score, I frankly care little. The music of the movie is superb - another John Barry triump (Zulu, Bond Film). The problem I have with most sound tracks is they give you little snipets of the music and leave you wanting more. This does not do that. You get richly filled out scores, so that anyone not having seen the film would enjoy this as well.
