Title: Beware of mediocre composers...
Review: ...especially when they are given icons to play with. Such was the case with composer Eric Serra and "Goldeneye". I hadn't been this disgusted with a soundtrack since Leonard Rosenman's travesty for "Star Trek IV" -- Next to no use of the classic Bond theme, hokey synth solos which suck the life out of every scene they appear in, one track ("A Pleasant Drive in St. Petersburg") which was so bad that it was left out of the film...and oh yeah -- Serra's delusional belief that he can sing any better than he writes ("The Experience of Love"). Thankfully, this was Serra's first and last opportunity to soil the Bond icon. David Arnold was handed the reigns for the next two pictures and helped erase the painful memories of this score from hell (In all fairness, I should mention that Serra's next score, "The Fifth Element", was far better.).
