Professional Review:
Special Edition Digipak of The Dark Knight. This Original Motion Picture Soundtrack returns with the ASCAP winning composers from Batman Begins- Academy Award winner Hans Zimmer and seven time Oscar nominee James Newton Howard- for a powerful orchestral score.

   Summary: Dark Knight CD
Loved the music. The titles where much better this time. I liked the different names of bats last times but it made it hard to keep up with where it occured in the movie unless you memorized the list. Another great soundtrack!

 Rating 5   Written on August 25, 2008
   Summary: Excellent music for an amazing movie
In short,the OST is what The Dark Knight is to Batman Begins...a bigger,more polished,more emotional,more accomplished version of it's predecessor.

   Summary: The absolute best superhero score ever crafted
Just like Christopher Nolan took everything he started with Batman Begins to new heights with The Dark Knight, composers Hans Zimmer and James Newton Howard take the superhero film score to new heights as well. From the creepily opening epic "Why So Serious?" to the tension-laced and hair raising "Always a Catch"; Zimmer and Howard have not only once again crafted a classic film score, but have raised the bar for superhero film scores, just as Nolan raised the bar for superhero films. The real standout of The Dark Knight's score however is the emotional "Harvey Two-Face", which depicts the tragic fall of the heroic "white knight" Harvey Dent. Other compositions, including "I'm Not a Hero", "Like a Dog Chasing Cars", "Agent of Chaos", and the grandoise closer "A Dark Knight" are masterpieces that are feasts of the ears. All in all, the soundtrack to The Dark Knight is absolutely the best superhero score ever crafted, and like the film itself, will stand as a masterwork to be cherished and imitated for years to come.

   Summary: This soundtrack is another casualty in the loudness war
The music on this album is great, but the mastering of the CD itself is terrible. There's so much dynamic compression that many parts of it are unlistenable -- some are even painful. I haven't heard mastering this bad since the soundtracks for the last two Pirates of the Caribbean movies (also by Hans Zimmer, interestingly).

If you're going to make MP3s from this album and listen to them with a pair of cheap earbuds, you might not notice the problem. But with a decent set of headphones or a real stereo system you'll hear some harsh digital distortion in the loud parts of the tracks.

Audiophiles, don't buy this album. Complain to Warner Sunset/Warner Bros. instead.

For more information, do a Google search for "loudness war."

   Summary: Movie Score Of The Year.
I was impressed with Hans Zimmer's score for Batman Begins. But I'm even more impressed his score, along with James Newton Howard for The Dark Knight. All the scores in the film are excellent. But the best is "Why So Serious?". That score really is errie and matches for The Joker.

I bought the limited edition CD because it comes with a booklet and 3 two-side cards of Batman, The Joker and Harvey "Two-Face" Dent. If you heard the score in the movie, and love it, get this soundtrack.
