I also couldn’t warm up to Thin Red Line or Interstellar. Somehow Zimmer’s melodies (when he has any) sound to me somehow improvised, like he always uses the Keys close to each other on the keyboard und likes using recurring melody figures like you might do when you improvise at the keyboard to a silent movie.
Means, first of all I miss the melodies in his music. And when they are there, then I miss the originality in these melodies.
Can’t help it. It’s just not my thing.
Still happy for those who like it.
