A bleak, melancholy work nevertheless punctuated by moments of sweeping symphonic beauty, Enemy at the Gates exhibits a musical and emotional economy rare in the Horner canon -- when the drama finally erupts, it means something. Fans of the composer will find much to savor here, and even detractors will discover passages meriting commendation. ~ Jason Ankeny, All Music Guide
