4 out of 5 stars Star Trek Generations.......2007-03-30

I never think about movie sound tracks but the music in this film is just full of emotion.

4 out of 5 stars Star Trek Generations.......2004-01-27

I Like it, The Overture Is Good. But, When You Watch The Movie
The Overture Is The End Titles. Why Is That? In The Middle Of
The Overture They Used Vocals Instead Of Insturments. I Call The
Song With Vocals "The Nexus". The Main Title Has Vocals Too. I
Call It "The Bottle's Journey". "Kirk Saves The Day/Enterprise B
Was Kind Of Like The Overture. "Deck 15 Was Kind Of Sad, Because
Of Kirk's Death. But He Really Didn't Die. He Was swept into The
Nexus [Energy Ribbon]. "Outgunned" Sounded Like A TV Song, So Did "Out Of Control/The Crash". "The Nexus/A Christmas Hug" Was
Wishy-Washy. I Liked The Sound Effects To.

5 out of 5 stars Wonderful Soundtrack.......2003-12-19

Dennis McCarthy composed some great music for this great movie. It can't be compared to the earlier Star Trek movie soundtracks, because this movie is much different than the earlier ones. The music does indeed have a lot in common with the music of the series, which is exactly what makes this score so great, because you realize that this is still Star Trek. This score has everything you want, action, excitement(Kirk saves the Day, Outgunned, The Crash), also very touching, calm suites like "Nexus/Christmas Hug". Dennis McCarthy's music is maybe a bit harder to "understand" than that of Goldsmith and co. but the more you listen to it, the more you love it, and it is too bad that he didn't compose music for the later movies, he would have done at least as well as Goldsmith, especially on "Insurrection". All in all, this CD is simply great, not only if you are a star trek fan, I can recommend it to anyone. You really don't want to miss it!!!

5 out of 5 stars Dennis McCarthy did it again!:).......2003-11-16

This is the very best damn Star Trek CD. The Star Trek: Generations Overature is whit I think is the best. *****

3 out of 5 stars A bigger budget does not equate better quality.......2003-05-31

Like Mark Snow of "X-Files" fame, Dennis McCarthy was given a bigger orchestra and more composition time to prepare for the big screen adaptation of the television series. One would think that this would yield a memorable score in the tradition of the film series. Goldsmith, Horner, Rosenman, and Eidelman had contribution greatly to the Star Trek musical saga with their respective scores. The pressure must have been great for McCarthy to top, or at least, equal their efforts.

Unfortunately, "Generations" is a score in search of a voice. It lacks the dynamic melodies characterized by each of the preceding and subsequent soundtracks. There are no thrilling tonal structures, no fascinating rhythms.

It just lies there, going nowhere.

With the limitations of episodic television, McCarthy worked miracles for both ST: TNG and its sister show "Star Trek: Deep Space Nine".

It's a shame that McCarthy's "creative juices" didn't flow as well in his composition for the movie.

The CD is also saddled with a "sound effects library" that can only be appreciated by obsessive Trekkers.
