The music for this third chapter in the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise is a traditional, efficient action score that, due to the film's setting, occasionally incorporates light Asian touches. The popularity of Hans "Long John" Zimmer (all the credits in the CD's liner notes include pirate-themed nicknames, like the roll call in a Simpsons Halloween episode) isn't in doubt--he sure is one in-demand composer--but afficionados are divided about his artistic worth, and this score isn't about to reconcile them. Some think that Zimmer relies too much on his stable of composers and sticks to tried-and-true recipes; others admire his capacity to weave themes in and out of cues, creating a whole made of subtly interrelated parts. At World's End feeds both camps: Seven of his collaborators are credited with writing "additional music," and the album feels by-the-numbers at times; but those inclined to listen very closely will be rewarded by the way Zimmer sneaks in bits of two main melodies (especially variations on the first track, a pirate theme titled "Hoist the Colours" and cowritten by director Gore Verbinski) throughout. The use of electronics is so light as to be almost undetectable, which will please fans of a more organic orchestral sound. --Elisabeth Vincentelli

The first movie had an innovative and fun soundtrack with some unforgettable themes, and I'd have expected the third movie to stick with the old standards. But for this one, they whip out a few of the most potent new melodies I've ever heard. These are made prominent in the movie, though still seamlessly woven into the old ideas.
I keep this CD in my car, and will never tire of it. It is unbelievably bold and aggressive, though many moments, particularly some in the Maelstrom track ... Read More

The songs reproduced on this CD serve to transport you to the bow of the Black Pearl, and to the deck of the Flying Dutchman, and to Davey Jones' Locker and Beyond!! What a great way to relax with images of Jack, Elizabeth, Will, Barbossa, and the rest of the crew, all floating thru your imagination....FANTASTIC SOUNDS, a Must have composition!!

This is a great CD, I'm a huge POTC fan. I listen to it as I run, it really helps me focus and I find myself running longer. Definitely a good buy if you like soundtracks.

The first POTC movie was great; well written, well acted, entertaining, fun and had a decent story to boot. Both of the sequels were utterly abysmal on all of the formerly mentioned levels. As for the soundtracks, Curse of the Black Pearl was composed by Klaus Badelt, who while obviously a different person than Zimmer, is a clone from the same studio. Still, this was by far the best of the three, providing the groundwork for the well-known theme that would late be expanded upon and butchered at ... Read More

I loved the music from the film, and I can tell when some of these tracks were played in the movie, but it was like a lot of the more instrumental soundtracks - a bit more repetitive than I was expecting. It's not bad, but knowing what it's like I wouldn't buy it again.
