Did Anyone Like The Musical Score?

While I do understand that MANY were upset by the fact that this movie featured Americans capturing the Enigma Machine, and not the British... And I can totally understand that...

But, who here at least like the musical score for the film?

I liked most of it, but the main theme of the movie, also heard clearly at the start of the end credits was fantastic.

I actually like to listen to that piece on my MP3 Player.

Makes me think of an old military ship being re-activated, and assigned with a crew of military specialists and sent off to perform secret missions, behind enemy lines...

Which I guess was a bit like the plot to U-571... LOL!

For you Star Trek fans out there... it make me think the theme could be used for "Star Trek: Battles", (A Federation Warship is assigned with the best characters from existing Star Trek TV Shows.)

Can we all at least agree that music was great?

The film had a very good score ... memorable main theme ... but subliminal the rest of the time. It never got in the way.

the pathetic patriotic trumpet music that these types of films does my head right in.

Too OTT. Too old fashioned.
