Bridge to Terabithia
価格: ¥1,155
If the Bridge to Terabithia soundtrack skims the surface of the movie instead of mining for the richest material, it wasn't necessarily a bad move on the producers' part--given the film's 12-and-under target audience, the disc amounts to a snug fit for kids who walk out of a matinee wishing to extend the uplifting mood. And with a trove of songs this good, the grown-ups in their lives shouldn't have much of a problem listening in, even if they're only awaiting Aaron Zigman's four majestic disc-closing score selections. Of the nine bubble-gummish tracks aimed squarely at grade-schoolers, several come across as radio-ready: Jeremy Camp's "Right Here" is crazy-catchy, Jon McLaughlin's "Another Layer" avoids laying on the message too thick, and Miley Cyrus, a.k.a. Hannah Montana, handles herself with Hilary Duff-reminiscent poise on the charming "I Learned from You." Lament the shortened score if you will, but there's still a lot to like here. --Tammy La Gorce
