A more pertinent comparison is that both films receive scores by John Powell whose career remains a touch hit and miss, but in a reversal of fortune, his score for Paycheck is actually far more interesting than that he penned for The Bourne Identity. That Paycheck has a stronger focus on the orchestra is an immense help, but it's also more varied and memorable. The Main Title, for some reason, made me think of an update on Bernard Herrmann, crossed with Goldsmith's wonderful Hollow Man titles music, all shot through with some very contemporary synthetic percussion. The main theme itself isn't the most memorable on record, but in a score like this, that's not a crucial problem. A secondary piano theme, notably in I Don't Remember and Impostor, is ostensibly the love theme, but it's one of those slightly cold and steely melodies that could do with a touch more warmth, even at the risk of upsetting the uncertain sci-fi sound world.
The score's undoubted highlight is the seven minute Hog Chase, spread over two tracks. The mixture of orchestra and percussion is more David Arnold than Media Ventures, indeed all it needs are a few bursts of the Bond theme and this could easily be for 007. It comes across as a battle between percussion and orchestra, each taking turns in the dominant role, but the upshot is loud and exciting, with enough unexpected flourishes and dramatic punctuation to sustain the energy. The earlier Wolfe Pack is as engaging, although the climactic cues don't quite match the centrepiece. Although the film is a poor relative of Minority Report, Powell's score is every bit as engaging as John Williams' and in some ways a more gripping listen. Powell imbues scenes with a level of drama that the film simply doesn't have on its own terms and small touches, such as the string quartet version of the main theme in the final track, Rachel's Party, are an unexpected bonus in an unexpectedly classy action score.
