about the well being of small children."

GANKUTSUOU: THE COUNT OF MONTE CRISTO, CHAPTER 2 (reviewed by James A.
Stewart, overall score 90/100):
"Gankutsuou has a breathtaking art deco futuristic setting -- the Count
joined Paris society after a meeting with young aristocrat Albert on
Luna -- but the story of revenge shaping up doesn't seem too far away
(at least so far) from Alexandre Dumas pere's original."

GHOST IN THE SHELL: STAND ALONE COMPLEX: 2ND GIG (VOLUME 3) (reviewed by
Adam Arseneau, overall score 92/100):
"In the third installment, Ghost In The Shell: Stand Alone Complex: 2nd
Gig takes a bit of a dip, but still manages to pump out the political
intrigue and high-tech action the series has become known for. If you
haven't been watching, you have some catching up to do!"

RUSTLERS OF RED DOG (reviewed by Steve Evans, overall score 80/100):
"This serial is chock full of truly dangerous (even foolhardy) feats
that would make modern stuntmen cry for their union rep."

S.A.V.E. LEVEL 1 (reviewed by Rob Lineberger, overall score 80/100):
"From the bear hugger to the double wrist grabber, Phil instructs you
how to thwart aggressors and keep safe."

SO FRESH, SO CLEAN (reviewed by Bill Gibron, overall score 80/100):
"Not really as funny as it thinks it is, but definitely engaging and
wonderfully inventive, this African-American Clerks may be short of pop-
culture riffing, but what it lacks in knowing references, it more than
makes up for in colorful, creative characterization."

20 FUNERALS (reviewed by Bill Gibron, overall score 81/100):
"Unlike many low-budget films, this effort shows promise, not problems,
for everyone involved. DJ Naylor and Mark Mench are actors to watch, and
if he ever gets his game totally together, Anghus Houvouras could be a
genuine journeyman filmmaker. 20 Funerals may merely be a resume
builder, but there's more here than future possibilities. It is a
thoroughly watchable genre offering."
