On April 7, 2013, a flight MA828 from Montego Bay, Jamaica to Kennedy Airport in New York suddenly disappeared.
On November 4, 2018, the plane suddenly appeared over New York. What will the 191 people on board face? How will their families accept them again?
This is what NBC's new TV series "Destiny Aviation" will tell.
The play is directed by David Frankle, who has directed "The Queen Wearing Prada" and "Brothers". Melissa Rosberg and Josh Dallas play a pair of siblings.
For Ben and Michaela, they just encountered a bump on the plane. But for their families, it has been five and a half years since they disappeared.
Time can test many things, including family affection and love.
In five and a half years, Ben and Mikaela lost their mother. Ben's boyfriend is married to her best girlfriend, Lords, and has become a police detective.
Michaela will also reintegrate into his family, including the lack of fatherly love and the responsibility as a husband.
If you think this is just a family ethics drama dressed in science fiction, then you are wrong.
After Michaela and Ben returned to their lives, they often had "auditory hallucinations", as if they were talking to themselves.
This kind of "audience hallucination", from the first episode, at least has not caused "weird power and chaos".
Not only that, but he also guided Michaela to save the children who ransacked on the road and two little girls who were kidnapped by the owner of the hardware store.
And all this seems to be related to the number 828.
For such a weird phenomenon, FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) people will definitely investigate it.
But after questioning all the crew and passengers, and checking all the luggage, no weirdness was found.
When FEMA was about to dismantle the plane for inspection, everyone on board seemed to be called upon to witness the explosion of the plane they were flying in.
The play feels a bit like "Lost". From the beginning, there is not much narrative about why the plane disappeared. The suspense creation is quite sufficient , including the setting of "auditory hallucinations" for all passengers, which seems to be "guided" by some kind of force.
However, the reshaping of family and social relations is still a bit old-fashioned and procrastinated, resulting in a weak sense of rhythm in the whole drama.
The setting of "Time and Space Shuttle" has also been used in many movies and TV series, which is not novel. The whole plot will also remind people of the rumors of Pan Am Flight 914.
However, why did the plane disappear for five and a half years? How did the “audience hallucinations” caused by the passengers on the plane come from? What is the meaning of the number 828? Why the plane exploded on its own, all kinds of suspense is worth continuing to watch.
PS: To add to the rumors about Pan Am Flight 914:
"On September 9, 1990, on the control tower of Caraga Airport in Venezuela, South America. People suddenly found an obsolete "Douglas" passenger plane approaching the airport, and the radar on the airport could not find the plane. The existence of the plane. When the plane landed at the airport, it was immediately surrounded by guards. After the pilot and passengers got off the plane, they immediately asked: "What is wrong with us?" where is this place? "The airport staff said: "This is Venezuela, where are you from?" After hearing this, the pilot exclaimed: "Oh my God! We are Pan Am Flight 914, flying from New York to Florida. How can we fly to you? The error is more than two thousand kilometers! Then he immediately took out his flight diary and showed it to the airport staff: The plane took off on July 2, 1955, 35 years later! The airport staff said in surprise, "This is impossible!" You are making up stories! It was later verified by telex that Flight 914 did indeed take off from New York on July 2, 1955 and flew to Florida. It was suddenly missing on the way and was never found. At that time, it was thought that the plane fell into the sea with more than 50 people on board. All passengers paid death insurance money. These people returned to their homes in the United States and surprised their families. The children and relatives are old, and they are still as young as they were before. The US police and scientists have specifically checked the lives of these people. ID card and body confirm that this is not a farce, but a conclusive fact."
——————————————————
The second episode has been updated.
But overall, there is still nothing new.
The second episode continues with three lines.
The first is that the heroine resumed her position and was promoted after the police re-assessment and psychological evaluation. At the same time, she also forgave her girlfriends.
The second line is that the male protagonist (the female protagonist’s brother) always hears the sound of a violin. He followed this sound and found an artist who played the violin, only to know that the artist’s son was in jail.
He asked her sister for help, after getting some information. By coincidence, the case was solved again. It turned out that the son of the owner of the jewellery store had guarded himself and stole it.
This is really terrible. Solving the case is based on the guidance of GOD, and it is a coincidence every time.
Here, the male protagonist also knows that his wife has something new about her, and seems to have been forgiven.
The third line is that when FEMA was investigating this matter, it targeted 22 people.
At the end of the second episode, a passenger on the plane was interviewed by the TV station and then killed!
Therefore, it can also be inferred that the mysterious power similar to "alien" does not want the people on the plane to make the matter public, nor do they want them to tell what happened on the plane. (Although the airplane passengers did not feel that other unusual things had happened.)
Therefore, the follow-up should focus on how the siblings use this ability to solve cases.
And this mysterious power will prevent certain things from happening.
In the third episode, I will continue to wait and see, but I am ready to abandon the show.
