Sorcerer...Williams' three scores are great. Sorcerer's Stone and Prisoner of Azkaban are actually two of my all-time favorites from JW. I don't think Azkaban gets the credit it deserves because of its choppy album presentation, but the full score is excellent.<br /><br />Doyle's is frustrating because it has a very different sound than Williams, but he maintains the high quality of thematic material and complex action cues.<br /><br />Outside of a few nice cues, Hooper's scores are fairly bland and his action writing in particular is very simplistic.<br /><br />Although Desplat is an improvement over Hooper, it's more of a technicality. Although his writing is a step above Hooper, it isn't much more effective in the end.TheGreghttp://gregnicksarlian.comnoreply@blogger.com
