Miracle at Midnight

I have always been a big listener to my grand mothers stories about the freedom fighters in World War 2. During "Drengene Fra Sankt Petri" my eyes wouldn't dry up, but during this movie, my soul cry'ed, triumf'ed and all other known & unknown feelings came out. This "Real Story" tells about how the common Dane fought the Nazi, and it couldn't be more real. It's the first time I've seen a movie about the Danish Freedom fighters, that wasn't Danish. But hey, we are a little country with a big voice. I only wish that people see this movie and change the opinion about Danes, from the ones that lasted 12min in defence but fought the whole war from the inside and saved several 1,000. Please see this movie.

Yes it's got lots of cliches and I have no idea how close it is to truth but I really enjoyed the performances. Some excellent scoring too. A good Sunday afternoon film. One of the hidden gems on Disney+

This is such a great movie. I taped it off TV and I watch it at least once a week. I really love war movies, but I have to say that this one is the best I've ever seen. It portrays the war in a nonviolent way. I also have to say that Justin Whalin and Nicola Mycroft are great actors and actresses, some of the best I've seen. I hope they do more acting. For those of you who have not seen this movie, I recommend that you see it because it is so great!!

The story is fine, but nothing special. Same story as other movies on helping jewish people during the war. What really bothers me about this movie is the unrealistic way they go about hiding the jewish people.

In reality, the jewish people were not so stupid, as in the movie, that they were wearing jewish clothe and jewish hats, while trying to hide from the germans who was comming to get them. Ofcourse in reality they did everything they could to not look jewish and they certainly did not wear jewish clothes or hold jewish ceremonies in a hospital where they knew the germans could walk in any minute. This movie could have been good, but this unrealistic stupidity througout the movie ruins it.

I don't think this movie is very well known because I have never heard of Miracle at Midnight until my recent visit to a video store. I'm glad I decided to buy it because it was worth it. It's an excellent movie, with a great script and a fantastic cast. I wish to recommend it to everyone interested in war movies. Miracle at Midnight is beautiful and its message will stay with you forever. It's a gem!
