Moustroll Good movie but grossly overrated
Matialth Good concept, poorly executed.
Kaelan Mccaffrey Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
Caryl It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties. It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.
adonis98-743-186503 If any of you remember IMucha Lucha! from back in the day 'El Tigre: The Adventures of Manny Rivera' is kind of similar as well in my opinion. It's packed with lots of humor and adventure but also action overall.
ceesolano I remember watching this cartoon back in the day, I clearly remember Loving it a lot, the Animation is truly something to admire, I'm pretty sure it was also in Book of life, just in Computer Generated, out of all the Great shows Nick Needs to bring back, El Tigre is my number one choice, next to Teenage robot & Danny Phantom. I'm Mexican myself so of course I would find El Tigre Awesome
alexramirez-174-77071 After hearing a fact that the creator of 'The Book Of Life' also produced this particular show, i decided to go on it's web-page on Nicktoons.com to see what lies in there for me. When i saw some episodes, never i thought that it would've blown me away.To start off on my review, ill start with the most important element of any cartoon; The Story. It tells the life of a 13-year old boy named Manny Rivera, A young super-hero who is the son of a hero known as White Pantera, but unfortunately the son of a villain known as Puma Loco. Due to this, Manny Rivera's superhero alter-ego has to choose a side: Good or Evil. What makes the writing good is just how complex the Manny himself is (which I'll get into later) and how creative the writing can be with the premise of each episode. The only catch is that sometimes the story structure can get messed up and can be left with a few plot holes here and there, but that doesn't hold it back from being so well-written.Now the Animation. They weren't kidding when they said this came from the creator of 'The Book Of Life'! This is possibly some of the most creative animation to come out of Nicklodeon! The backgrounds and setting are set in a Dia de Los Muertos theme and they look amazing and it can get really colorful at times. Same applies to the character design and animation. Not to mention that it can get pretty fast at times and it's not so sudden like in other Nick cartoons.The Characters are just right down likable. El Tigre/Manny, like i said before, is such a complex character with him having a hard choice to be Good or Evil. This can make him one of the most Likable Nick protagonists of all time. Manny's Best Friend/ Possible Love Interest, Firda is one of the funniest female kid characters nickelodeon has written. Plus i like that they don't make her so focused on her comedic/tomboy side to the point she becomes annoying, they keep her funny yet likable at the same time. Even White Pandara and Puma Loco are funny and likable. Same with the main villains (Santana, Black Cuervo, El Oso)Why don't people talk about this as often as Spongebob and TMNT? Pepole, go to the web-page of this show on Nicktoons' website and go see the episodes of them and have a good time in Maricle City!
ultramatt2000-1 Yelling, crashing, exploding, mischief, face and body alterations, and expressing emotions in an exaggerated manner. The stuff that cartoons these days are carrying since the late- eighties. Created by Jorege Gutierez, inspired by the Mexican masked-wrestling craze from his home country, this cartoon tells the tale of a boy named Manny Rivera, who becomes a El Tigre. He lives with his father, White Pantera, a super-hero and Puma Loco a retired super- villain. He must choose between being a hero or a villain. Going back, he has a wacky best friend, Frida who is the singer of the band, The Atomic Sombrero. The villains are wacky and hilarious. I discovered it has a shade of STAR WARS because he has a choice between being a hero or a villain, which is why I am glad Jorge Gutierez made that idea, because if he was going to be a villain, then we would end up what would look like, a Latino DENNIS THE MENACE running around (or amok). After watching eight episodes, I noticed that this show is great. It is like the new MY LIFE AS A TEENAGE ROBOT. I found some similarities between this show and THE HI HI PUFFY AMI YUMI SHOW. They are both Flash-animated, but PUFFY has Japanese references and TIGRE has Spanish references. The best part is you can learn some Spanish. I find nothing wrong with this show what so ever. There is a lot of good moral for the kids to learn. It teaches kids that the world is not coated with sugar, and it teaches them to play with the cards they've got and play them right. Unlike SPONGEBOB SQUAREPANTS. He is nothing but a pest. He drives Squidward and other characters up the wall. Then kids copy and drive other people, no matter the age and gender, completely bananas, and when they get bullied they are screwed. Worst part is about SPONGEBOB, is that apart from a predictable plot, he is taking too much air-time and franchising!!! I am angry at the Sponge! Thank goodness there is shows like EL TIGRE and TEENAGE ROBOT. Besides the character designs in the show are good, not to mention the classic Hanna Barbera stretching noise as heard in such cartoons as THE FLINTSTONES, THE JESTSONS and SCOOBY-DOO. The best part is, that it ranked number 15 on the list of America's top- rated shows. Perhaps the viewers are Latinos apart from kids. I give this a four out of five stars. Really fun entertainment for the entire family, but it is rated TV-Y7 for comic and fantasy violence, mischief, crude humor, and all manner of wacky going-ons.
