Maybe I'm just a purist, but I like the original score better. The Shinoda one has a very heavy rock feel which is appropriate for the movie, but although Evans sites Die Hard as a major influence because of the setting, the lean but muscular rough-and-tumble style reminded me of Carpenter's Assault on Precinct 13, and I like how the synth score evokes that. It sort of plays like that move directed by Yuen Woo Ping.
