Memories of Midnight Audience Reviews

Greenes Please don't spend money on this.
InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
Paynbob It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
Justina The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
clanciai It's not as bad as it looks. On the contrary, it's a great story, there is nothing wrong with its screening and direction, and I can't see why so many fail to appreciate it for what it is. It's a regular Greek tragedy, and the wife of Omar Sharif is the centre of the drama - her exit is simply magnificent, and is followed by the intricate scheming of Theodore Bikel, who plays an important part as the final nemesis - when he first gets disposed of it provides an interesting question mark, since his death is never followed up, but then this story is a series of deaths that inevitably fail and turn up again as ghosts too much alive. Omar Sharif, who happened to die today at 83, makes an excellent performance all the way, he is actually the star, while Jane Seymour, beautiful as always, accompanies him excellently - no one brings the show down. It's a wholly Greek story of rivalry between dominant ship builders, great fortunes are at stake and are gambled and wasted, and love gets caught in between and is sacrificed, while it turns the other way by a surprising twist of fate. A much underrated film and story, also the music is very satisfactory and excellent accompaniment all the way, so it definitely deserves better appraisal. Better than most of the Bond movies of the time.
vpilutis First off it does help to understand the story if you know this is the sequel to: "The Other Side of Midnight", so the characters of Noel, Larry, Demirious, and Cathy all were in TOSOM, one different is while TOSOM (both book and film) takes place before during and after WWII and MOM the book takes place right after TOSOM, MOM the Mini takes place in the modern age.Poor Jane must have gotten a neck pain having to look up at Ken Howard.One thing I hated is what Melina did to herself to frame her husband, (For those who haven't seen MOM, I won't say what it was)Our Greek friend is a first class baddie (Played by Omar Shariff), more so than Raf Vilone who played him in TOSOM.Paul Sand is first class as the office odd ball.
lambiepie-2 Well this one is. Big time. Being young when this came out and a die hard Jane Seymour fan, This was one I HAD to see. Gotta be honest, I was bored silly, I couldn't believe Sidney Sheldon wrote any part of this or Ms. Seymour acted in it.All I could get from this was Jane played Catherine, a woman who lost her memories who's husband Larry (played by a man who's lead singing for the group Chicago I adored as a child but to whom I barely recognized as an adult with his acting in this film, Peter Cetera) thought he killed and she shows up elsewhere trying to remember her past life. Maybe it wasn't worth remembering, for the story just fizzled out. It starred alot of actors and actresses who got thrown into mini-series staples as they reached middle and old age of that time but the direction was really bad and so was their acting. Even a fan of Seymour's like myself couldn't find a redeeming quality to this. The writing was bad...not even "campy" bad, just--bad, very sub-par for Sidney Sheldon. The direction didn't add to it, it was choppy, made it worse. Maybe it needs a big time do-over like a film within a film sorta thing, or maybe it should just be left alone. I would not recommend this for any fan of Sheldon's work or Seymour's work at all. Sadly, a 1 out of 10...and even that is being generous.
petershelleyau Catherine Alexander (Jane Seymour) is an amnesiac who is found on a Greecian beach by nuns, taken in by shipping magnate Costas Demiris (Omar Sharif) and given a job in his Amsterdam Hellenic Trade Corporation. Catherine is actually Catherine Douglas, a woman believed to have been murdered by her husband Larry (Peter Cetera) and his mistress Noelle Page. Noelle was also the mistress of Costas, and he blackmailed the trial lawyers so that Larry and Noelle would be executed. Catherine's emergence however causes a threat of exposure to Costas, and he hires Atana (Ari Meyers) to assassinate her. Will he succeed? And will Coastas' wife Melina have her revenge?Seymour uses her American accent and appears wearing her long brown hair draped in front of her on one side. When being pursued by Larry she gets to run on the beach in the rain, fall into the ocean, is tied to a chair in front of an exploding pressure cooker, and says a memorable `Gawd. I feel so lost' to psychiatrist Alan Hamilton (Stephen Macht) whom she marries. The teleplay by Paul Wheeler, Richard Hack and Michael Viner, based on the book by Sidney Sheldon, is forgettable pap, with one laugh line Melina says to Costas - `How considerate you are, especially to women half your age', and director Gary Nelson adds nothing noteworthy.
