A Ira dos Anjos

There was no reason for them to make the changes they made, it could have been filmed much closer to the original plot. A bright example of why it's better to read the book.

Rage of Angels is a great film, and Jaclyn Smith did a great Job, and yes became the Queen of the Mini series. A tear jerker with a bit of an edge of the seat thriller to it. Unlike most films miniseries the ending is not so happy, and the twists and turns in this story are a trademark of Sheldons excellent writing. He keeps you thinking all the way through and keeps you interested because Mr Sheldon does not follow the typical path of many other books/films etc at that time. Sheldon's influence can be detected in the screenplay. Love it!!! If you see any book or Mini series of Sheldon's books watch/read them. He is one of the best writers... Sorry WAS one of the best writers around. I for one am sad no more books will be written by him. In my opinion avoid Doomsday Conspiracy.

This is probably one of the best adaptation of a Sidney Sheldon's novel. Shown in 1983 as a two-part TV miniseries, Jaclyn Smith stars as Jennifer Parker, a novice New York lawyer who had to clawed her way to the top.

Book lovers of Sheldon's novels, will enjoy this adaptation. Sheldon serving as executive producer of this film, made this film like reading his book.

Smith's performance is an added plus.A capable performer, Smith is excellent as usual. Armand Assante and Ken Howard provides the love interests. Assante is excellent and Howard portrayed his role of a politician like a real one -- huge,and boring! Excellent music and Smith's never been so beautiful on the small screen. A must for fans...

I kinda miss the '80s actually, when it comes to television! They don't make miniseries anymore like they used to. This is a perfect example of why the '80s are so huge and bigger than the movies.

This major tv-miniseries based from the bestselling novel by Sidney Sheldon, catapulted Jaclyn Smith as the undisputed QUEEN OF TV MINISERIES. If I'm not mistaken, there was no other actress before her that was dubbed as the Queen. Yes, Richard Chamberlain, was the King of TV-Miniseries but no actress claimed the title of the Queen and you can see why critics and the viewing public bestowed the title to her. A big major event when it was released and ratings blockbuster, that the producers wanted to create a tv-series after it became the toast of tv town. Smith, did star in a sequel three years after and most hollywood stars wants to star in any Sheldon based movies right after!

This movie is full of exciting characters, shot in beautiful locales, wonderful performance by the players and seductively appealing performance by Jaclyn Smith. This is basically like reading Sheldon's books. If you're going to start watching it, make sure you don't do anything or you're not working the following day because you won't be able to stop. It's like an addiction.

I can't think of any actress in TV Hollywood, who can really glued viewers to their television like Smith does to her fans. Smith and Armand Assante should do more movies together.

Jaclyn Smith is at her best in this outstanding miniseries and this one is worth adding in your collection.

To Maiahaines and the rest .....

Jaclyn Smith is THE UNDISPUTED QUEEN OF THE MINISERIES and TV MOVIES and just in case you don't know -- the title was bestowed by TV & magazine critics not just her fans. Jane Seymour may have starred in more miniseries but Jaclyn Smith top the Nielsen Ratings Chart by the mile. She's got the most No.1 rated miniseries and TV movies than any other actresses in Hollywood during her time.

As for who's the better actress, well...that's your opinion !

This miniseries adaptation is executive produced by the writer himself Sidney Sheldon and has an approval of Robert Joseph's script from start to finished, as explained in a written article by the master storyteller himself (TV Guide Oct 1983). It was a rating blockbuster during its first telecast and more viewers tuned in during its encore performance.

If you enjoy reading a Sidney Sheldon book then this miniseries is a must see!
