| This
disc is one of the few soundtracks that can actually
get away with a runtime of only a little over half
an hour, because the music is simply that good. Of
course this disc features a lot of songs on it, so
it will likely be hit and miss with some. Still, one
would be hard pressed not to enjoy the over the top
"I'm a Collector" song done by actor Takeshi
Kaga (which was not used in the film) or the movie's
end theme "You and Me" (aka "Toi Et
Moi") done by Namie Amuro, which seven years
later still remains one of my favorite Japanese pop
songs. Those looking for some more classic compositional
work also have some tracks to look forward to, especially
since composer Shinji Miyazaki does not fall back
on using primarily stock themes like he had for Pokémon:
Mewtwo Strikes Back (1998). Miyazaki's star
attraction on this release, and a career high for
the composer, is easily "Jiraldan's Theme",
a very foreboding track with heavy chorus work that
sounds far too ominous for one to picture the music
attached to a Pokémon movie. Unfortunately,
this soundtrack is not complete, and is missing some
key themes from the movie including the more upbeat
cue that plays when the heroes are rafting their way
across the river of ice. Considering its short runtime,
it's anyone's guess why some of the themes were left
off as there was more than enough room to accommodate
them.
