Reviews
“Absolutely dazzling!…a very exciting score…thematically rich and expertly orchestrated...exciting action and stunning beauty.”
- Mikael Carlsson, Founder, International Film Music Critics Association
“…A gorgeous symphonic score by Greg Sims. The score has sweep and grandeur...”
- James Ward, Gannet Newspapers
“…a terrific soundtrack from Greg Sims…”
- Rick Bentley, McClatchy Newspapers
"Greg Sims... has the talent to pull off a score of JUDAH's richness... Sims' LION is the definition of musical production value, creating a surging scope worthy of a biblical epic...evoking tenderness, and dire suspense... The trumpeting danger of JUDAH ends up sounding like more of an adventurous cliffhanger than anything you'd consider cartoony, which is a measure of the melodic grandeur that Sims brings to the film... LION OF JUDAH is truly inspiration, not to mention pleasantly surprising."
- Daniel Schweiger, Film Music Magazine, July Soundtrack Picks
Review Score: 9 (out of a possible 10)
"…Sims's music works wonderfully as a standalone project. There are old composers whose music I love, and have done for years. John Williams, James Horner, John Barry, Jerry Goldsmith, Alan Silvestri, but even their greatest soundtracks have atmospheric moments. What I mean is that there are tracks that don't do anything for you (they're fine for the movie, but a little dull when listened to in isolation). Sims's score for Lion of Judah is bursting with quality material from start to finish…"
