A product neither of Hollywood nor the New York-Sundance indie axis, Manna From Heaven is a true outsider film, and while it would be easy to fault its lack of technical polish, somewhat discursive script and uneven performances, it is also refreshingly sincere, gentle and good-natured.
Frankly, the story behind Manna From Heaven is a truckload more interesting than the movie itself.
Hokey, overstuffed plot and a messily hand-stitched, often illogical script.
Colorful and cute. It would be better if it weren't quite so sitcommy and if it didn't outlast its ideas.
Regrettably, neither cast nor crew is able to save it from itself.
It's shot like a Lifetime-influenced student film, and the overall artlessness makes the spoony dialogue all the more glaring.
