I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama

Handy Manny (originally titled Roberto The Repair Man) is a show about a Latin American repair man who goes about his city helping out various people or so it would seem on the outside. This show is deeply rooted in American racism all of the American characters sit back and watch Manny do all the work while giving him no form of pay, they frequently insult him using racial terms such as Spic and even Beaner which I find absolutely disgusting and I expect you would feel the same. This show is being shown to so many children without their parents even realising what is being said and I believe this is causing many kids to grow up racist without it even being their own fault. Please do not let your kids watch this show and if they already have please tell them that the things they are learning from it are extremely wrong and disgusting.

Unlike all the other kids shows that have Spanish and English included in the show, this one is easy to follow. My son and daughter both love this show and are excited when they hear the theme song. It is a bit like Bob the Builer, but as an adult it annoys me how the people walk and the characters in the show talk. It's not how people talk everyday. Bob is too proper and Manny is more of how people hold conversations in their everyday lives. I love this show because it teaches kids how to get along with one another in a group and solve problems within that group in an easy to understand way. Hope they make many more of these shows. Good Job!!

I have a one year old who isn't interested in cartoons yet, but I occasionally turn on cartoons in hopes she'd pay attention. I turned on Handy Manny and she was not interested, but I watched all four episodes in a row! I love that it teaches Spanish and has good messages, plus it is entertaining! Not too much singing and doesn't make me want to gag watching it! I can't wait until they put it out on DVD! I also was surprised to find out Manny was voiced by Wilder Valderrama. At first I thought it sounded like Mark Wahlberg, that's why I looked it up. I also like the graphics- very easy to watch. They seem like the graphics from Veggie Tales.

This show is great for kids. It's unique and has great lessons for kids to learn. It's not like Bob the Builder nor should it be compared to it. This is totally different and effects a completely different age group and possibly generation. The mix of English to Spanish is good because it's not trying to teach kids Spanish but keeps them understanding that some kids might talk in broken English. Therefore it teaches them tolerance. Lately I believe that kids shows have been striking out for age groups 5 to 10 but this is a great one and the producers did a fantastic job on this one. I love to sit and watch it myself with my niece. She learns about fears, expectations, and that you can do and be anything you want. This show is great for both boys and girls. It's worth the watch and it's worth the time to set your kids in front the the television (which normally I would not condone). I love that the voice of Manny is a former "That 70's Show" Character. Way to go "Fez". How wonderful for you to break the mold of mainstream TV stars and break into children's television. You have earned my respect as an actor. Back to the show though, this show was worth the wait to see and continues to surprise me with the great episodes they put out. This show has earned my respect as a children's show. The voices and the people behind the show are wonderful creators and deserve so much credit.
