Rage of Angels

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...

The actors in this film were great. Although I can't see why she would want that senator. He is completely dull at least Armand Assante's character is entertaining enough to bring this movie to life. I can't wait to see the sequel.

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.

Her gorgeous looks can't hide Jaclyn Smiths embarrassing attempts at acting while being regularly employed in the 80s. Hilarious.

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.
