And Ford (as I recall) pointed out the Silvestri score -- as some of us have heard it and obviously as used in that clip -- is missing overlays, so we have yet to hear the score as intended.
MV said a release is unlikely to happen.

Interesting. I wish they could...underlay the electric guitar, but it actually works really well in the train cue. Still uncool, even in 1996, but better than the electric guitar in fucking Attack Of The Goddamn Clones in 2002.

Zimmer's MI2 is very good. The two by Giacchino did nothing for me. Haven't heard the rest.

I really enjoy all the Mission: Impossible film series scores - sometimes just select tracks and sometimes the whole darn thing. In the latter category, both of Giacchino's efforts, III and IV, are my most listened to albums, I love those scores from start to finish. For Elfman's M:I score, I like the first few tracks and the last 15 minutes. For Zimmer's, I love the Spanish guitar track, "Injection" and "Bare Island" and for Kraemer's there are highlights throughout, but I skip a few tracks on the album. We'll see how Balfe's music fares when I pick up the album and see the movie.
Good luck, man. The Balfe score is THREE DAYS LONG.

I think Elfman's is clearly the best, but really all of the first five are pretty strong. Zimmer's was ridiculed at the time but it's got real style and I like how outlandishly different it is. A shame the record has come to an end with the extraordinarily dull sixth one.

Since all music is subjective, here is my list.
1ST - Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation (Kraemer)
2ND - Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol (Giacchino)
3RD - Mission: Impossible II - (Zimmer)
4TH - Mission: Impossible (Elfman)
5TH - Mission: Impossible III (Giacchino)
Mission: Impossible - Fallout (Balfe) - I have not heard this yet so it remains off the list for now.
Both Rogue Nation and Ghost Protocol are two albums I listen to frequently. I love the ethnicity embedded in each score and the Solomon Lane track is the creepiest villainous score in modern cinema.
Hans Zimmer is not usually a composer I speak highly about but he did some nice tracks for film #2
Elfman's score has some nice tracks but few and far between for a total listening pleasure. His album falls into what I call the black hole of film music compositions of the 1990's. There was music and then there was silence.
Kraemer's score is absolutely the BEST. It hits all the right notes for a great action film, sadly he was not asked back for the latest. I can only hope the new composer will keep it memorable.
I bought both Rogue Nation and The Man from UNCLE scores around the same time in 2015, and each score is a plethora of great music that feels it belongs in another era. I was so excited I could not wait for SPECTRE's score, which sadly I was very disappointed. O h well, two out of three isn't bad.

First post! Hello everyone!
After taking a few days off to listen to the longest score ever released since… Brian Tyler's The Mummy…, I thought it would be quite interesting to see how people were liking Bafle's take on Mission: Impossible. No surprise, it is mostly disliked.
My personal rating is:
1. Mission: Impossible. The purest MI. Crazy cues. Fantastic orchestrations. I love and miss the collaboration between Bartek and Elfman.
2. Ghost Protocol. Giacchino is having so much fun, it is hard to not enjoy it for me. Nice tunes, some powerful action sequences, great opening, superb villain/Russian theme.
3. Rogue Nation. I fell in love with Kraemer's Jack Reacher and Rogue Nation is a wonderful and powerful score. Love every bit of it even if the album is a bit too long for my taste.
4. III. Great action sequences we've already heard before. Giacchino at the time was still stuck with a handful of motives and "tricks" that work perfectly but make this score a bit bland.
5. Fallout. While the score is basically a 3-hour-long trailer music, this is quite enjoyable here and there. I'm not a huge fan of the boring time signature. And the final chorus is probably one of the worst things I've heard this year.
6. 2. Nice themes. Nice colors. This doesn't seem like a Mission: Impossible score to me, so… It lies here, at the bottom of my list.

Silvestri totally ripped off Williams' prequels music here.
This was released long before the prequels.
It reminds me a lot of BLOWN AWAY, though.
