Henri Mancini
Revenge of the Pink Panther (1978)
Henry Manciniin his fifth Pink Panther film, its theme music and much of the soundtrack draw heavily from the disco trends of the late 1970s. The Pink Panther Theme itself was reworked to include a more dancy bassline, electric piano and guitar solo. (Wikii)
I don’t especially think this is a notable inclusion to most people’s Mancini Collection. Not one of his best (to say the least).
John Powell
How To Train Your Dragon (2010)
AllMusic loved it ***** rating. 
I prefer - perhaps due to the martial arts styled Chinese themes and rich interludes.
John Powell and Hans Zimmer
Kung Fu Panda
12/4 Edit…it would probably help to include the cover. 
I’d say, all things considered, I’m not such a fan of action movie soundtracks, especially the kind that seem geared toward cinematic emphasis coupled with surround sound. That’s not to say there’s not some strong and memorable title themes, more so the overall soundtrack content lacking as an enjoyable listen without the visuals.

The Bourne Supremacy (2004)
Benjamin Wallfisch & Sarah Schacher
Preadtor: Badlands (2025)
I’ve posted quite a few Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross soundtracks. IThis doesn’t do much for me & I’m not a fan of the Immigrant Song cover.
The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo (2011)
Rockers (1979)
The soundtrack for Rockers was developed concurrently with the film’s production, evolving from director Theodoros Bafaloukos’s initial vision of a documentary on Jamaica’s late-1970s reggae scene into a hybrid narrative that embedded authentic music performances to drive the story of oppressed musicians reclaiming agency through reggae culture.

Song selection prioritized tracks that captured the era’s vibrant yet gritty reggae landscape, curated by Island Records founder Chris Blackwell.
Now to something completely different:
These two abbreviated soundtracks defy any attempt of classification. At times they sound like Hollywood vintage blockbusters, mostly like naive soviet family movies (which the second one was actually meant for, ´Rikki Tikki Tavi´ is a figure from Rudyard Kipling´s ´Jungle book´ collection), sometimes avantgardistic, like Philip Glass had met Bartok, Mahler and Wagner.
Alfred Schnittke is mainly known for his polystylistic ideas, developing a unique style of serious classical music in the second half of 20th century. It is fair to say his symphonies and concertos were mainly inaccessible. His film scores are highly enjoyable, IMHO. He was one of the most prolific movie composers of the Soviet Union.
