Full Plot Details

Manna From Heaven is a comedic fable about what happens when you get a gift from God (a financial windfall), then find out many years later that it was just a loan, and you must pay up immediately. Once upon a time, many years ago, a neighborhood in Buffalo, New York was mysteriously showered with $20-bills. Theresa, a young girl thought of as a saint by everyone, had little trouble convincing her loose-knit "family" that the money was a gift from heaven. Years later, Theresa has become a nun and now has an epiphany that it is time to pay the money back, so she calls the eccentric group together to repay the "loan." The problem is, nobody wants to give back the money, nobody has the money, they don't know to whom it belongs, and most of them can't stand one another. Along the way, the characters learn about family, romance, reconciliation, and redemption, and by working together they begin to realize their full potential.

Movie Reviews

New York Post - 9/10 by Megan LehmannHokey, overstuffed plot and a messily hand-stitched, often illogical script.
Dallas Morning News - 6/10 by Matt WeitzYou can tell what Manna wants to be -- a light-hearted-yet-profound, feel-good flick in the same vein as It's a Wonderful Life -- but it falls woefully short.
Creative Loafing - 6/10 by Matt BrunsonThe quality of the film doesn't quite match the loving care placed into it.
Common Sense Media - 6/10 by Liz PerleWell-meaning movie will bore younger kids
Washington Post - 5/10 by Natalie HopkinsonOverall it is a nice effort by Five Sisters Productions, which has given audiences a much-needed reprieve from the angst, irony and mean-spiritedness that is endemic to modern cinema.
Boxoffice Magazine - 5/10 by Bridget ByrneLike a hand-knitted sweater, it's a little lumpy and ill-fitting, but it has a wonderful texture and attractive color and is just fine for making you feel warm and cozy.
Christian Science Monitor - 5/10 by David SterrittColorful and cute. It would be better if it weren't quite so sitcommy and if it didn't outlast its ideas.
Deseret News, Salt Lake City - 5/10 by Jeff ViceYou may pull a muscle trying not to cringe as such long-time screen veterans as Shirley Jones, Cloris Leachman and Frank Gorshin embarrass themselves with over-the-top performances.
Salt Lake Tribune - 5/10 by Sean P. MeansThe movie's cloying cuteness and homespun sanctimony make the low production values even harder to forgive.
TheMovieChicks.com - 5/10 by Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann PaloneLike manna, the movie is sweet but a little thin.
