An Impressive Collection of Rock,
May 15, 2000 Brent Larson (My Chair) - See all my reviews
This review is from: M:i-2 : Music From And Inspired By (2000 Film) (Audio CD)
Recently, we've seen quality soundtracks for Scream 3, TheCrow: Salvation, Heavy Metal 2000 and many others. The soundtrack forM:I-2 is no exception. The headliners on this album deliver with great results. Limp Bizkit's "Take A Look Around" is one of the most sophisticated songs they've ever done, and it gives Fred Durst an opportunity to shoot back at his critics. The chaotic, frenzied remix of Chris Cornell's "Mission" (re-titled "Mission 2000") is an intriguing stand-out. Another intriguing addition to this disc is the Foo Fighters' cover of Pink Floyd's "Have a Cigar" with drummer Taylor Hawkins on vocals. They add a bit of adrenaline to it for some splendid results. Buckcherry's "Alone" and Godsmack's "Going Down" easily dwarf the material on both bands' albums. One of the best tracks on this album is Rob Zombie's thundering "Scum of the Earth."

A dream team of rock and rap stars!,

This review is from: M:i-2 : Music From And Inspired By (2000 Film) (Audio CD)
This is the best soundtrack that i've heard since The Matrix. Metallica's "I Disappear" is an awesome song(I'm a big fan of Metallica) and Uncle Kracker with Kid Rock is really cool, but in my opinion, Limp Bizkit's "Take A Look Around" was the best track on this CD. This CD is a crowd-pleaser, unlike the soundtrack to The Crow: Salvation.The Crow: Salvation had some truly awesome bands, i.e. Kid Rock, Rob Zombie, etc. but all the songs were remakes or remixes or just plain un-origional songwriting. But not Mission:Impossible 2. After this soundtrack, I am ready to see this probably-awesome movie. The film stars Tom Cruise and is directed by John Woo, who directed Face/Off, Broken Arrow, and The Replacement Killers. Enjoy this soundtrack, you won't be disappointed!

It's a Soundtrack, not a Score,

This review is from: M:i-2 : Music From And Inspired By (2000 Film) (Audio CD)
I noticed someone in an earlier review gave this CD a very disparaging review simply because it was not the score.That's exactly what it's not. It's the soundtrack, not the score. The score *is* being produced, and *will* be out soon.There's a difference, you must realize, and this CD is a good one by itself... Don't judge it just because it's not the score.
