Reception
Jonathan Broxton of Movie Music UK wrote "Ready or Not is a fun action-horror score that never takes itself seriously, but is musically accomplished enough to be worth exploring. The main theme is a wonderfully elegant throwback to the 1990s, and Tyler is clever enough to manipulate it into numerous variations and deconstructions which allow it to run throughout the entire score without becoming tiresome. The action music is bold, ballsy, and occasionally over-the-top, but consistently entertaining, with some especially notable rhythmic ideas and moments of devastating dissonance that will absolutely appeal to fans of the genre. This is one score that you won’t want to hide from, and that you’ll want to seek out immediately." [6] Peter Debruge of Variety and John DeFore of The Hollywood Reporter described the score as "thrilling" and "spine-chilling". [7] [8]
Ian Freer of Empire wrote "Brian Tyler's propulsive score, all driving rhythms and scratchy violins, that pushes the action forward without ever sacrificing the gothic-y mood." [9] Andrew Parker of TheGATE.ca described it a "memorably jauny score". [10] Angelica Jade Bastién of Vulture said, "the heavy-handed score by Brian Taylor that doesn't trust the audience and often lessens the impact of the film's most thrilling moments." [11] Stylist wrote "The score, by Brian Tyler (usually to be found in the Marvel Universe) is perfect". [12] Chris Bumbray of JoBlo.com wrote "the score by Brian Tyler is memorably eccentric." [13] Christopher John of The Curb wrote "Composer Brian Tyler, who I have had problems within his past scores (mostly Marvel stuff), delivers an effective, thrilling, delicate and sumptuous score that thoroughly surprised me and work so well in tandem with the story taking place."
