There's a story going round, which I haven't been able to either verify
or disprove, that Hans Zimmer only charged $ 1.00 for his work on
Invincible, just because he and Klaus Badelt wanted so very much to work
with Werner Herzog, director and producer of such cult films as Cobra
Verde, Even Dwarfs Started Small and Nosferatu (a remake of the 1922
F.W. Murnau classic). It doesn't show, and I mean that in the nicest way
possible.

The score is quite short (about 35 minutes of movie music and 15 minutes
of source cues), but it really doesn't need to be much longer. The
score, which for the greater part is based on increasingly complex and
--as the story progresses-- dark and gloomy string movements which weave
intricate and powerful layers of sweeping chords, has only so many
places to go before becoming repetetive, which makes this the perfect
length: its not inconsiderable emotive power comes off best when
presented economically.

Of course a comparison with The Pledge would seem a logical thing to do,
that being Badelt and Zimmer's first collaboration...but it's not. The
Pledge is a completely different type of score, as moody and atmospheric
as Invincible, but considerably less emotional and lyrical.

In fact, the music is *quite* lyrical and romantic in style (evoking
echoes of Beethoven, and maybe even more of Wagner), and is surprisingly
subtle in evoking an emotional response (although there's enough
testosteron-pumping drama in tracks like "Master Of The Occult").
Perhaps this is due to Badelt's mittigating influence as Zimmer
generally tends to go for the emotional jugular, with as big a sound as
he can muster, but this an unexpected --and very welcome-- change of
pass for the Great Man from Media Ventures.

Rather minimalist in scope, this score is an unobtrusive, but lovely
little score, which passion shines through in such beautiful cues like
"Visions" and "Souls". Sure to become a sleeper hit!

Enjoy another GREAT release from SRN!!!
