Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Good Tuneage, but more like a radio listen of the movie.....
I have mixed feelings about this CD. I love Queen's music, and I loved the movie, even if it was a little hokey in places. So I really, really wanted to love this CD. Well, the music is still great, but it was as if they simply ripped the music while it was playing in key sequences of the movie, and kept the spoken lines from whatever character was speaking at the time. If they could have removed the spoken lines, it would have been much better. However, if you did like the music and the movie, ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Flashing Synthesizers Throughout the Mix
With two numbers geared to FM radio play - Flash's Theme and its reprise, The Hero - the remaining 16 numbers on this February 1981 release were synthesizer-laden instrumentals with snippets of movie dialogue in the mix.

The single - Flash, which is titled Flash's Theme on the album - stalled at #42 on the Billboard single's chart, with the soundtrack achieving a tepid gold sales status while peaking at #23 on the album chart.

A platform for a superstar band that could afford ... Read More



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Find it all pretty satisfactory...
This is probably a mistake reviewing this record, but I am something of a completist so here it goes. `Flash Gordon' is a movie soundtrack, nothing more and nothing less and not particularly memorable. "Flash's Theme" is great for this record and "The Hero" is the best song and surprisingly heavy as compared with the rest of the album which is heavily syth laden. The movie can be enjoyable is watched in the right frame of mind, which is to enjoy it as a live action comic book with all the cheesiness that ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Flash Gordon Soundtrack Review
Flash Gordon was a great album. It was a great instrumental that just screamed Queen and where they were singing, it was Queen all the way. I would reccomend this album to any Queen fan looking for instrumental pieces and genuine Queen eccentricity.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Flash + Queen = Unforgettable
This is a masterpiece. Flash Gordon is one of my favorite movies. I bought the LP record, the CD, the VHS movie, the LD movie, the DVD. I watched it one hundred times and listened to Queen's soudtrack as well. This is just unforgettable.
