It Came Upon the Midnight Clear Audience Reviews

ActuallyGlimmer The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.
Tayloriona Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.
Janis One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.
Logan By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
Christmas-Reviewer Mickey Rooney plays Mike Halligan, a retired cop from Manhattan living in California with his family who decides to show his grandson, who has never seen snow before, what a real white Christmas in New York is like. But he dies from a sudden heart attack in which Halligan makes a deal with the Archangel of Heaven to return to Earth for a week until Christmas and show his grandson the seasonal glories of New York City.The film is so well made that you can overlook the flaws. The casting is spot on. There is never a dull moment. The film works so well because it does make New York City a co-star. I also love the bound between Mickey and Scott. The film is not available on DVD. You can get used VHS copies. Originally running 96 minutes I am afraid that if the film is shown on commercial television that they will cut about 12 minutes out! If you see a VHS buy it.
mary mc donald i have seen this movie twice,i have tried to buy this movie on video. but sadly it didn't come out on video in Australia. so i bought a used copy through amazon.com but after 6 months of trying to covert the video to pal version it was found the video tape was of poor quality. if anyone out there has a copy of this movie please let me know as i'd really love a copy to watch over and over again. it shows the true meaning of Christmas. my e-mail address is [email protected] i'm really hoping some one can help me to find this movie as it was one in a million. mickey rooney is a excellent actor and makes the movie so heart warming for all the family to watch.
denisebracy This movie is a wonderful film that I have been trying to find on dvd for my children to watch as I did when I was young. Didn't know it was a TV movie which goes to show just how good of a movie this film was.Mickey roonie and his voice is part of my childhood..
kbracco It is my favorite Holiday movie ever . . . It took me forever to be able to find a copy to purchase and I love watching it . . . I hope that one day it might be released in a dvd format . . . The relationship between the Grandfather and Grandson, reminds me a lot of me and my late Grandmother . .. I recommend it to everybody . . .
