Midnight...it's a very tough hour..........2006-02-09

I have yet to read a single remark about this movie that makes me think anyone ever really watched it.

I did. Three times.

It's funny. It's also very European. It doesn't reflect an American sense of humor.

There's a gritty quality I really like. I find the visual aspect more than a little acceptable. The darkness of a lot of the scenes is moody, and evocative.

The core of the story has to do with the horrifying accidental wounding/disabling of a young child during an attempt to arrest a major drug dealer by the lead character, Inspector Alex Glass, played brilliantly by Armin Mueller-Stahl. We must observe the wretched condition of the man as the story opens.

He is sleepless, rumpled, irritable, and lacking in any kind of hope. All his life is sour, and he is being beaten down by the one terrible event of his existence, that has caused him to nearly lose himself.

Music is one of his few outlets. And then, there's the job. He has a new assistant, Shirley May, played wonderfully by Julia Kent, and a friend, the District Attorney, played by Michael York.

He also eventually finds himself involved with Lisa, an apparent bimbo, who manages to become another drop of the glue of life that keeps him from disintegrating.

I was not impressed by Morgan Fairchild the first time I watched the movie. Like most others making comments, I thought she was an absurd choice. That is, until I thought it over for a while. It dawned on me that she was actually perfect for the role, and when she threw her head back and laughed in one scene with Mr. Mueller-Stahl, I fell in love with the character, and with the actress. She was funny, sexy and pretty, as this character, and she was brave. Good for Lisa!

Alex is older than she. So what? We should all be so magnetic and well-preserved as we grow older. They're a rather odd couple. That does nothing but lend a spicy, amusing and rather sweet atmosphere to a very gruesome and sometimes terribly sad tale.

Frank Stallone was a great villain. I've seen him in other films, and I was so impressed by his talent, I couldn't figure out why the kid brother got so famous, and eclipsed him. The way the cookie crumbles I guess.

I recommend this as a movie that must be viewed with a sense of humor. And intelligence, because it isn't for dummies. It's a spoof of American cop pictures, where the hero never misses, and sex, as audience bait, takes the place of acting.

Yes, there's sex in this movie, and some of it is hilarious. However, there's never a glimpse of action on-screen. That's a nice change from all the sweating and heaving that goes on here in the US for the purpose of keeping our limited attention on the movie.

This story deals with a serial killer doing his thing, yet it isn't full of gore and splattered brains. In fact it's an excellent flick, in part, due to what you don't see.

See this movie. And use your noodle. Have no expectation, either good or bad, and you'll be pleasantly surprised!

Enjoy!

Belongs on everyone's "worst movies I have ever seen" list. The color is terrible and the transfer is very bad.

Making Armin Mueller-Stahl the love interest of Morgan Fairchild is casting insanity. He could easily be her grandfather so a good bit is lost trying to accept that twosome.

The movie itself is hard to grasp because the police station looks like a garage with busted toilets sitting in the hallways. Nothing is real about the movie plus it would appear the cameraman had no grasp of light versus dark. At times, you can't even recognize where a scene is taking place because of the darkness.

Save your money and don't buy this DVD. This is below a grade B movie...If there is a "C" movie or a "D" this would certainly qualify.

Description

In the early morning of March 7, 1986, multi-millionaire Stan Cohen was shot three times in the head with his own gun as he slept in his mansion in the exclusive Coconut Grove section of Miami. His wife was downstairs sorting clothes for a charity drive. The Cohens appeared to be living a fairytale life. But behind the facade there were cracks: she was addicted to cocaine and spending money faster than he could make it, and Stan had turned to an old flame for comfort. When she called the police to report the murder, saying only that she had seen "shadowy figures" run down the stairs, they were immediately suspicious. Why had the burglar alarm been turned off? Why was their protective Doberman Pinscher locked in a back room with her? The investigation was handled by the real Miami Vice, who played the part down to the Gucci loafers. And like the fictional detectives, they got their man, in this case Joyce Cohen. MIDNIGHT IN MIAMI opens a window into the twisted, hungry world of the sunshine city in the mid-'80s, when greed was good, more was better, and life played second fiddle to the all-mighty dollar.
