Very Misleading...

"Avoid this. I'm a batman nut, and love the music from The Dark Knight in particular... I was hoping (and assuming) this was done by a REAL orchestra, but instead sounds like it was done by an amateur in his garage on his favorite synthesizer. Avoid like the plague... you'll feel ripped off if you get this. I believe Amazon may have samples you can listen to before buying, if you'd rather hear for yourself... but you've been warned."
WARNINGS: Avoid this garbage CD made of synthetic sounds ...

"It is unbelievable that a CD of this kind can be produced, while there are so many good soundtracks that are waiting to be released ...
I totally agree with the previous review: listening of the preview of this CD is the most painful thing I have done for a while ...
If you like batman music, buy the original music by Danny Elfman, Elliot Goldenthal, Hans Zimmer / JN Howard ... or at least good re-recordings, like for example The Batman Trilogy: Batman, Batman Returns, Batman Forever (1997 Studio Recording), an excellent re-recording by the Royal Sottish Orchestra directed by Joel McNeely. Fans of super-heroes music can also have a look at this awesome CD: Comic Strip Heroes, made of very nice re-recordings by the City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra.
Actually, these CDs I have recommended for you are made of true orchestral music and are very well recorded ... do not miss them !
And AVOID this terrible product: Music from the Dark Knight and Other Batman Movies [SOUNDTRACK] [IMPORT] ......"
