    FYI, "score" refers to the collective body of composed music for the movie. Individual pieces of music are known as "cues". If you were going to rank a film score, you'd take the entire body of music into account.

    I really like the scores to The Incredibles and Catch Me If You Can. The music in all the Lord of the Rings movies was excellent as well.

    The Fountain, not even close.

    Clint Mansell is a genius. Requiem For a Dream another of his finest work.

    This is worth watching if you haven't seen it.

    I second the Last of the Mohicans. Music was so powerful that they didn't even need dialogue for the last 10 minutes of the movie.

    I hate to be predictable, but in just about every category, the following is the greatest film of all time, including score. Every time I hear it, I want to run off and fight somebody:

    <object width="320" height="265"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/RuxHLzwlDY4&hl=en&fs=1&color1=0x3a3a3a&color2=0x999999"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/RuxHLzwlDY4&hl=en&fs=1&color1=0x3a3a3a&color2=0x999999" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="320" height="265"></embed></object>

    This related film score is also great, though in a different, sad way, which is appropriate for perhaps the saddest movie I've ever seen:

    <object width="320" height="265"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/F4zkZ9q9k1Y&hl=en&fs=1&color1=0x3a3a3a&color2=0x999999"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/F4zkZ9q9k1Y&hl=en&fs=1&color1=0x3a3a3a&color2=0x999999" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="320" height="265"></embed></object>

    I liked the Road to Perdition soundtrack. A bit depressing though.
