Goldsmith hasn't had nary a misstep since (the real) Planet of the Apes. It was the movie that was lacking...lol, and the franchise was fortunate to have been able to hire his services. This general soundtrack is actually more versatile program music than First Contact (which I subjectively like better for it's martial robustness), and shows Goldsmith was still relevant, searching, and not compromising one bit.
All said and done. Weather you think this one or another one is the best, Insurrection is Gerry Goldsmiths best work. Rip. Thanks for everything and especially for this. Beautiful.
Definitely an underrated movie. It's a shame the Son'a Solidarity wasn't explored much further in the franchise. It would be fascinating to see a glimpse of that society.
I have to agree that all the movies were not great, I must say that the soundtracks move me. In my opinion, Jerry Goldsmith kept the Star Trek franchise going thanks to his beautiful music.
I love the music when Picard is shown how time is slowed down while spending time with the female lead and a hummingbird slowly hovers. Does anyone have that music?
i love your comment about walking up the isle with your future wife. My wife and I went to Las Vegas on our honeymoon and we spent a lot of time at Star Trek The Exerience at the Hilton. This is my favourite score from Trek and was played a lot on the loud speaker in Quarks Bar at the Experience, Ah memories.
its so sad to realise there will never be another trek movie with the next generation cast. we had the plot line after nemesis for a follow up, and patrick stewart and jonathan frakes both said last year they want to do more with star trek. but now we have the overly commercial and plotless, star trek reboot thanks to JJ Abrams.
I Love the new trek film. and regardless of whether you liked it or not it was the only way trek could have lived on. someone tells me Patrick might have a cameo in the next film ...
I actually think is is a nice start to the movie coz it sets the peacefulness up and then you get the change of pace and feel after about 3 minutes and it becomes more sinister. and i can add the lines in to match the music more or less.
I can do the same with first contact- but in the case of insurrection I always thought the music was far better than the actual movie. I think First Contact has one of the best soundtracks of all time imho
such a nice melody .. fits really perfect to the movie
i also own the cd ;-)
and have you recogniced that in star trek XI the music was completely in the background (in almost all normal films the music is in the background) but in older star trek films with goldsmiths music.. it was different - when i hear a piece of first contacts soundtrack i immediately imagine the scene of the movie
I think Goldsmith had more time to create the Insurrection score than First Contact (2 weeks) and it shows. I still think the low key music approach the producers insisted on for the Next Generation movies meant that the films lost some of the magic of Goldsmtihs first two Star Trek movies. The Next Generation movies would have benefited from letting Goldsmith soar a bit more.
Joel Goldsmith is living up to his father's legacy & there are other great composers of this generation like Graeme Revell, Hans Zimmer, Sean Callery, Michael Giancchino & Marco Beltrami
They were deciding if they should kill off Picard or Data & i think they made the right choice plus there is always potential for Data to come back (Y)
its only slightly embarrassing but i am a huge sci-fi and startek fan. this movie has been my favourite since i was very small. and i hum this song all the time.
why be embarrest when you like something? as long as you dont walk around in a Trek uniform to school/work and dream about Orion slave girls your fine! :P
not my fav movie. (not bad or anything i just dont really see the point of this one) but i do like the soundtrack alot and have the CD. (bought it back in the day :)
I actually like this film a lot. I thought the battle in the nebula was fantastic, with Riker driving the entire ship with a joystick.
This is one of my favorite pieces of music as well. I love the softer approach to the main theme with french horns instead of trumpets. The opening gives me goosebumps
If they had made it a drama instead of comedy - as they originally planed it - then it could have become a great movie.
originally data should die in insurrection, killed by Picard, who recognizes afterwards that Data wasn't broken, but Starfleet had gone too far and therefore starts his rebellion. But then Paramount interfered and said it should become a funny movie. :(
Would have been a better insurrection and a better dead for Data
it's a real shame. not that i don't love the ng crew, but as a film buff, this needed more. better antagonist maybe? would've been perfect for the show. score's a 10/10.
i don't think you understood me. i liked the movie a lot. i've seen it a dozen times this year. it's just that the drama of the story was no where near as compelling (still poignant) as generations or first contact. it dosen't fuck w/ your emotions as much as the theme of death in generations and of blind rage seen in first contact (even data dying and picard lonely at the end of nemesis gave reason to invest feeling in the movie). again i really liked this movie- it just needed more.
I felt the movie need more as well. I mean a planet which has the power to restore ones youth would be a highly coveted prize by many species. They could have had war break out for the planet with several other civilizations but I guess they didn't go that route for budget reasons and that they had a war going on in Star Trek Deep Space Nine.
Yeah, this is probably the weakest TNG film to date but it's still a solid watch. Just didn't really need to go to theaters. It could've easily just gone DTV to been an two hour episode but since it was long off the air by then, they made this film.
It's overall rather solid. Never boring, well-acted, beyond corny one-liners, good action scenes & of course the score. The score is what brings any movie to life & this music helps keep things lively.
the reason i didn't like nemesis as much as the others was because they tried to make it an action movie. the entire last third of it was enterprise fighting the scimitar. Though i have to admit, data dying really caught me off guard. it's like what spock did in wrath of khan
Well, I'm glad you uploaded it, because it's one of my favorites. Thanks.

Zimmer's very best is not nearly as good as Goldsmith's worst. Goldsmith commands an orchestra like Picard commands the Enterprise.
