Manifest (2018–2023)
2/10
Narcoleptic Melodrama
5 July 2022
There is a point after the basic plot is drawn out when several episodes return to the premise, the plane in a storm & picks out an individual passenger/character whose story forms the plot of that episode. Dull though this sounds, this would be more interesting that what actually unfolds.

A lot of the acting & shot composition is poor.

There is a specific scene in Ep.12 which is surreally bad/funny: A missing child's sketchbook is explained to be a portent of future events. "This next one shows... us right now." A lame child's sketch of three adults looking at a piece of paper cuts to the same scene composition in camera. A lame child's camera shot surely?

Everything seems unintentionally wooden & comic thereafter.
