Marco Beltrami scored five movies released in 2007: the American thriller Captivity, the Danish comedy Vikaren, the American mystery called The Invisible, the Bruce Willis action-adventure comeback Live Free or Die Hard, and, finally, director James Mangold's prestigious remake of the classic western 3 10 to Yuma staring Russell Crowe and Christian Bale. In all these scores, Beltrami is successful at achieving what he set out to accomplish -- intensifying the action onscreen -- but the best of them is 3:10 to Yuma. In Beltrami's lonely themes, spare textures, relentless rhythms, and quirky orchestrations, one hears echoes of the great scores of Ennio Morricone. But with his razor-sharp lines, searing single-note crescendos, and bludgeoning percussion attacks, Beltrami shows he has his own distinctive voice, too. Superbly played by an anonymous London studio ensemble and brilliantly recorded in Abbey Road Studios, the music on this disc, like the music of most soundtracks, cannot stand on its own. What in context of the film is absolutely appropriate, when heard alone sounds like a musical effect without a dramatic cause, a series of non sequiturs linked by themes and gestures but not joined into a cogent narrative by drive and development. Still, for anyone who enjoyed the film and anyone who's following Beltrami's career, this disc will be mandatory listening.
