 A very strange soundtrack CD. November 28, 2001

This CD is sawed off version of what was in the film, probably to make it a Zimmer showcase (does Zimmer need a showcase). Aside from the one Mozart piece and Larry Wright's drum solo, the CD is all Zimmer. No Enya. No Soul II Soul. No David Carr. No Zorba the Greek. No more Mozart. Etc. etc. I don't think this should deter you from enjoying this CD unless you happen to focus on the other pieces in the film. I mean Zimmer is a noted film scorer. I think the oddest thing about this CD is the title of the film protagonist's composition: in the film it was "For" Bronte, not "Pour" Bronte. I mean, that was right in the film. See Enya's Watermark CD for her work in the film.

I love this CD. I have had it for many years and actually broke the first one, so I bought another. There is no other CD in my collection that I regard so highly as this one. I am a member of the Armed Forces and I listened to this CD on a training exercise in the south Pacific. Not that anyone would understand without being there, but I had one of the most beautiful sunrises while on radio watch. Silly as that may sound, I will remember that morning for as long as I live.

What is it about this CD that has captivated my family for nearly ten years? As my kids have grown up and gone away to college, they all have requested this as a Christmas or birthday gift. Is it the subtle African themes? The Mozart? The joyous, driving rhythms and melodies? Whatever the reason, they want it as part of their new, independent lives and their memories of home.
 Early Zimmer, Awesome Zimmer August 30, 2000

Green Card is a great score. If any of you have followed Zimmer, you will have noticed his style changes all the time. Green Card's score is similar to Zimmer's Driving Miss Daisy or Rain Man. If you are looking for a Crimson Tide, Backdraft, or The Rock (Hell, look at Green Card's cover), look elsewhere. The score is almost all synths, and almost never gets depressing (unlike many scores out there). It's a fun, upbeat score that always has you feeling good. I perfectly understand what the above reviewer is saying about the day he will always remember while listening to Green Card on sunrise. It does make you feel good, and given the right moment, can exceed that. If you like Zimmer's scores to Beyond Rangoon, Rain Man, or Driving Miss Daisy, pick this one up, as I can almost guarentee you will like it.

By far this is one of THE best soundtracks I have ever heard. My musical likes vary quite a bit but this is one for everyone. The music is romantic and catchy and always helps me remember the movie which was also brilliant! This is a must have.
