Rating: 2.5/5 -- Like manna, the movie is sweet but a little thin. Full Review

It's shot like a Lifetime-influenced student film, and the overall artlessness makes the spoony dialogue all the more glaring. Full Review

Rating: 2/5 -- The Burtons' hearts are in the right place, but they need to get more tough-minded. Full Review
Los Angeles Times

Rating: C- -- You 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. Full Review

Rating: 2/4 -- The five sisters responsible for the old-fashioned fable 'Manna From Heaven' have a lot of plates spinning in the air -- but even their 10 hands aren't enough to overcome the hokey, overstuffed plot and a messily hand-stitched, often illogical script.

Rating: 2/4 -- You 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. Full Review

Rating: 1/4 -- The movie's cloying cuteness and homespun sanctimony make the low production values even harder to forgive.

Product Description:

An all-star cast contributes their invaluable talents to cheery comedy MANNA FROM HEAVEN. Shirley Jones (THE PARTRIDGE FAMILY), Seymour Cassel (RUSHMORE), and Shelley Duvall (THE SHINING) are among the actors helping to render this story of a family that becomes incredibly wealthy when a sizeable portion of money falls out of the sky. Having no idea where the loot came from, the family declares they are the recipients of a miracle. But when the money is spent, and Theresa (Ursula Burton) becomes a nun, further comedic hi-jinks are in store as she decides they must pay all the money back. Fans of genial comedies such as THE MONEY PIT and BREWSTER'S MILLIONS should find much to love in MANNA FROM HEAVEN.
