Manny & Lo Reviews:
A young Scarlett Johansson 
2009-11-22 - This is about 2 sisters that run away and the oldest sister along the way finds out that she is pregnant. They kidnap a lady to help them with the child's birth. I wasn't really a fan of the movie but it was nice watching Scarlett Johansson in her younger years. I just did not like the story line. The movie arrived ontime without any problems.
A Rare Gem
2009-03-01 - Manny & Lo is one of those rare films that almost everyone overlooks, but those who are lucky enough to find it on TV or take the chance at renting it are pleasantly surprised.
The movie features young Scarlett Johansson, and Mary Kay Place, who perform wonderfully together to create charming on screen chemistry. The story is somewhat serious in nature, dealing with the life of runaway foster girl sisters, Manny & Lo, and their travels, but the storytelling is done in a somewhat humorous, uplifting tone that makes the film so likable.
Anyone who likes deep-thought movies that make you contemplate life while you watch them, will probably enjoy this movie. It's probably my favorite movie of all time.
Saw a part of it on Spanish TV. It is okay. 
2005-02-25 - I never had heard of Scarlett Johansson before, it was until i saw lost in translation that i wondered about seeing her other work(in films). I was fortunate enough to see Manny and Lo On Spanish TV(i only saw a bit of it, but i was not impressed). Scarlett Johansson is a great actress even as a Child she still was super but i don't think this movie has it at all. I thought it was super boring. I felt this movie as being really sad. I still recommend it to you if you love admire Scarlett Johansson. :-)
Movies i recommend to you on Scarlett Johansson.
They are the following:
(The funny movies)
Eight legged Freaks.
In Good company
Girl with A Pearl Earring
Lost in Translation
Home alone 3.
Perfect Score.
Overlooked
2004-08-08 - Scarlett Johannson and Aleksa Palladino play sisters "Amanda" and "Lauren", two foster kids, in this off-beat story. They kidnap a nurse-type (Mary Kay Place) to help them with Lauren's pregnancy. The movie is a bit quirky and the dialog is quite good. The movie did not have any Oscar-caliber aspects to it, but it was entertaining, however.
The DVD itself has a good image quality, but there were no features other than scene selection, and a trailer to 3 other movies. It was over-priced (at $22) for what you get, but at a lower price, or if you are a fan of any of the three lead actresses, it may be worth it to you.
GREAT MOVIE!
2003-12-24 - I saw Manny and Lo for the first time on the OXYGEN channel earlier this year and fell in love with it. The movie is very entertaining and funny at times, I'm so glad that it is finally coming out on Dvd! I'm going to be at the front of the line buying this one when it comes out in January.
