AZUMANGA DAIOH: THE COMPLETE SERIES (reviewed by Joel Pearce, overall
score 89/100):
"If you missed ADV Films' original DVD releases of Azumanga Daioh, there
is good news. Now you can get the whole series in this cheaper box set.
It's a great value, and highly recommended for most anime fans."

BACK ROADS (reviewed by Bryan Pope, overall score 70/100):
"Back Roads wants so badly to be another of Ritt's raw, honest stories
about ordinary people living extraordinary lives -- but, like its
desperate characters, it gets lost somewhere along the way."

IN THE REALMS OF THE UNREAL: THE MYSTERY OF HENRY DARGER (reviewed by
Russell Engebretson, overall score 82/100):
"In the Realms of the Unreal is a good introduction to the weird world
of Henry Darger if it is consumed with a pinch of salt. Since the
director did not see fit to include a devil's advocate to balance the
scales, the fascinated viewer might use his search engine to delve
further into the murky controversies that surround Darger."

IRISH AMERICAN NINJA (reviewed by David Johnson, overall score 80/100):
"Some of the funnier sequences arrive in montages (Sebastian stops just
short of going overboard with this tactic), depicting either a moment in
the Irish American Ninja's life or in his mind. For example, we see a
sequence set to breezy pop, as George envisions what his idyllic life
will be like once he reunites with his brother. You want to know what I
think is funny? Two ninjas running around holding hands, pushing each
other on a swing or dancing in a gazebo."

LA PETITE LILI (reviewed by Rob Lineberger, overall score 79/100):
"Visuals are La Petite Lili's major strength aside from its convoluted
structure of cinematic self-reference. Miller somehow manages to make
grass seem evocative, to say nothing of walls, clouds, and cows."

MADLAX: ELDA TALUTA (VOLUME 4) (reviewed by Mitchell Hattaway, overall
score 90/100):
"The creators of Madlax have thrown another curve, but by now I have
come to expect that."

MAJOR DUNDEE: THE EXTENDED VERSION (reviewed by George Hatch, overall
score 95/100):
"Like Major Dundee, Peckinpah deluded himself into believing that if he
could deliver a handful of great scenes, the studio would back off and
continue to finance the production. He wasn't able to prove himself, and
the film was finally taken out of his hands."

THRILLER: THEY CALL HER ONE EYE (reviewed by Paul Corupe, overall
score 83/100):
"Even in those scenes that don't intoxicate the viewer with a heady mix
of sex, violence and drugs, Thriller is still able to shock with its
surprising amount of artistic pretense. Vibenius has taken obvious pains
to create attractive arthouse shot compositions, including some amazing
dreamlike sequences."
