Merolliv I really wanted to like this movie. I feel terribly cynical trashing it, and that's why I'm giving it a middling 5. Actually, I'm giving it a 5 because there were some superb performances.

BelSports This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

Deanna There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

sgpettine This genre of film is a classic example of a theory on average taste: Take a turd covered in chocolate then rolled in nuts and feed to the general public who will give rave reviews to the curiously refreshing tidbit. Now, to fulfill the 10 line requirement, here' an amusing little ditty: There are smiles that make me happy. There are smiles that make me blue. There are smiles that steal away the teardrops, like the sunbeams steal away the dew. There are smiles that have a happy meaning, that the eyes of love alone may see. But the smiles that filly heart with sunshine, are the smiles that you give to me. Poo, poo, poopy do!

soulcharmer I can hardly write something more about this gem considering the comments below. Without any spoiler given I only reveal to you that this movie is wonderfully well acted, plot is very appealing, kind, humorous and highly enjoyable. Really. Really really.Go and see it. Now. 9/10

George Parker "Manny & Lo" tells of two runaway girls and the how they deal with the challenges which arise when one gets pregnant. What this film lacks in big budget blockbuster appurtenances it more than makes up for with it's creative and unpredictable story, depth of character, raw charm, tongue-in-cheek humor, and insightful sensitivity. A wonderful little "sleeper" which necessarily starts slow and builds delivering pound-for-pound much more than films with many times the hype and box office. Most likely to be appreciated by females and more mature males.

RodClif This movie was wonderful. The characters were developed so well I felt as if I knew them. Mary Kay Place was in top form. This movie was unpredictable yet allowed you to come up with your own view as to the future of the characters in the end. This is one of those movies that are a diamond in the rough; a movie that once given a chance, and viewed will be watched by many because of word of mouth. I loved this movie!
