Rango

Director Gore Verbinski’s (Pirates of the Caribbean) first animated feature, Rango, is shaping up to be one of this spring's biggest films. The tale of a chameleon in the old west (voiced by Caribbean star Johnny Depp) forced to become a reluctant hero, Rango features an all-star cast, and a soundtrack that combines a soaring score by best-selling composer Hans Zimmer (The Dark Night, Inception, Pirates of the Caribbean) with original songs by Los Lobos, who act as a Greek chorus, commenting on the story in much the same way as Jonathan Richman in There's Something About Mary. With driving norteno melodies mixing with Ennio Morricone-inspired orchestral themes, Rango is a soundtrack both kids and adults will want to own. From the Label
