James Newton Howard is a brilliant film composer. It's a shame he had to work within the constraints of Hans Zimmer's billionth retread of the exact same theme he uses for every movie. I think the lack of original music was a (minor) weakness in this film, it's mostly just the same stuff from Batman Begins. I would have really enjoyed hearing the use of new music to differentiate the mood of this film from the last one.
