- "Zidane: a 21st Century Portrait" also features a well sounding production job, and while some tracks come off a little loosely structured and probably could have benefitted from a bit more composition time, it´s still overall a good quality release from Mogwai. A 3 - 3.5 star (65%) rating is warranted.

Nov 4, 2006 · Mogwai Zidane. A 21st Century Portrait. OST (PIAS/Wall of Sound) Mogwai have earned the right to have their albums considered events. And when the album in question has been so long a rumour, the project so keenly awaited, event status is guaranteed.
Douglas Gordon called upon post-rock band Mogwai to create this soundtrack and it was probably a good choice. They have plenty of songs with climatic and huge points, but they also possess the opposite end of the spectrum.
As an admitted Mogwai enthusiast, I approach Zidane: A 21st Century Portrait with lowered expectations. It’s a soundtrack, after all; its first-and-foremost quota is syncing up with images of slide-tackles, corner kicks, and goalie lunges from a soccer film of the same name.
