 A Haunting And Mournful Music score January 30, 2004
Clint Eastwood's score to "Mystic River" is a first rate accomplishment and music that stands alone without the film. It's main theme, a mournful dirge that repeats itself in different variations throughout the film, seems repetitious at first. But as the story unfolds that main theme becomes a powerful reminder of past sins and regrets for several characters in Brian Helgeland's screenplay adaptation of Denis Lehane's novel. Eastwood's film misses being great by a wide margin but it is an ambitious effort that features some spectacular acting. The music score contributes immeasurably to the sometimes implausible drama.
 Mostly it just doesn't work June 27, 2004
While I was watching the film, there were some spots that I thought the music went pretty well with what was on screen. However, most of the time I was wondering what the heck the composer was thinking. Near the end the score even turns into something you'd hear in a horror film rather than a drama. The score is just too all over the place. The main theme is also repeated way too much with basically no variation at all. I didn't know Eastwood scored it until I came hear to see who scored it. I did like the film a lot. I just think Eastwood should stick to directing.
Haunting and beautiful May 27, 2005
I found this soundtrack haunting and beautiful. I really enjoyed the music it was thought provoking and sadly blissfull.
