Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

OK, I'm 14 years old and the large majority of kids shows get on my nerves. But this show was amazing. I loved it. I plan on continuing to watch it even though it's on while I'm in school. It teaches kids that everybody has a purpose in life. It's a great show that anybody can watch and enjoyOK well I have to have at least 10 lines so I'm going to talk about Handy Manny some more. I just turned on the TV this morning and there it was. So I watched it and it was amazing. It turns out that Handy Manny's voice is pretty sexy. So at the end I watched for his name. It went by to fast, but I did catch "Wilmer." And honestly how many Wilmers do you know? So I came here to find out if I was right. I'm amazing. Then I saw a bunch of people being negative so I thought I'd share the positivity!!!! Love you!!!!

Handy Manny is definitely a cute show, and one that isn't too annoying for parents to watch along with their kids. (Although the parallels to Bob the Builder are obvious). My kids - 6, 4 and 2 - love it. Manny and the tools each have their own personalities and work together to solve problems and help their neighbors. And the projects are ones that kids can relate to - fixing a slat on a baby crib, fixing a latch on a bunny cage. The songs (which are repeated in every episode) are catchy and my older kids have been singing them repeatedly. One issue I have with with Manny is that, since he only has a limited number of tools, he sometimes uses them incorrectly - such as using pliers instead of a wrench to remove a bolt or using a flat blade screwdriver instead of a wood chisel to make a channel in a piece of wood (although he did wear safety goggles which was good). I've tried to explain to my kids that while it's great Manny does cool stuff and helps his neighbors, using the wrong tool for the wrong job can be dangerous. If wish Disney would give him a few extra tools or limit his jobs to the ones he can do with the tools he has. That said, it still has many good points and kids will love this show.

Manny is a repairman with a toolbox full of talking tools, all of which are cleverly named: for example, the measuring tape is Stretch, the hammer is Pat. Together Manny and his tools take on a variety of jobs, which always require thinking through possible ways of getting them done. In one episode, they're trying to help a lady get a new oven into her house, but it's too big for the door, so they have to try to find some other way to get it into the house.Manny is a Latino, and speaks a mixture of English and Spanish, as do some of the other characters on the show; only one of his tools has a Latino accent -- Felipe, the phillips screwdriver. When other characters greet them, they typically say, "Hola, Manny. Hello, Tools."My 4-year-old daughter loves this show. She enjoys learning what the different tools are and what they do.

I think maybe the previous commenter was being a little too PC. This is a lighthearted show, and well executed. Think a CGI Dora the explorer, or maybe a less annoying Backyardigans... I think kids will love it.In terms of comparison to Bob the Builder - the show holds up well with well defined characters and plot lines. The visuals are excellent - I think CGI is something that can be quite "cold" but the animators have really brought the characters to life. I think kids now appreciate really well done CGI movies - think of the quality of some of the more recent films. It's time a cartoon series lived up to this standard. Time will tell, but this show is so well executed that it's sure to be a hit.
