  Here is a solid, satisfying movie, very much in the mold of the best of <u>Disney</u>'s product of recent years, seamless, escapist and enjoyable. Be especially on the lookout for the outstanding music by <i>Philip Marshall</i>. While helping drive the action forward and maintaining a resolute pace in the usual professional <u>Disney</u> fashion, the score also gives opportunities for some very tasty virtuoso slide guitar riffage, as well as mood-reinforcing Hawaiian slack key work. The talents of <i>Martha Coolidge</i> have by no means gone astray here. As director of such under-appreciated gems as <b>Real Genius</b>, <b>Rambling Rose</b> and <b>Valley Girl</b>, her efforts as producer of <b>Rip Girls</b> seem to have pulled together a well-coordinated package well worth a look.
