Diagonaldi Very well executed
Bereamic Awesome Movie
Philippa All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
Fleur Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.
writers_reign This is one of the stronger episodes in what is itself one of the strongest television shows of the last decade. This time around Stone, suspended from his job as chief of police by a vindictive councilman, is tapped by Commander Healey to help the Boston force solve what appears to be random shootings by a serial killer. Meanwhile Rose and Suitcase - now comprising the entire Paradise police force - are doing their best to track down the perp who is not afraid to beat up the staff of convenience stores. This remains one of the finest of the television 'cop' shows and scores in its hard core of supporting players, Suitcase, Rose, Hasty, Gino Fish, Healey etc. Here's hoping they issue a boxed set.
blanche-2 "Jesse Stone: No Remorse" is a 2010 movie based on the character created by Robert B. Parker.I like a lot of things about these movies, one of which is how incidental characters are carried through to the next story, for instance, Emily Bishop, now working in a convenience store; and Hasty, now out of prison and still in love with his ex-wife.In this film, Jesse has been suspended by the town council and isn't supposed to be talking to Suitcase or to Rose. And now he has a cell phone and Rose has the number, if he could only figure out how to work it.Healy (Steven McHattie) hires Jesse as a consultant to look into a series of murders. Jesse gets the word that everyone on the police force is going to be fired, and the council plans on using these unsolved murders as an excuse. So Jesse points out it would behoove everyone involved to get them solved.My problem with these movies, though I think the stories are good, is Tom Selleck. I happen to be a fan of his. What I like about him is his smile, his flair for comedy, and his immense charm. None of which he displays here. He has a sad, depressed look on his face and mumbles his lines, and it's supposedly called ACTING. It's a generic, monotone performance. If a more complex actor were playing this role it would help the movies.I read a story from a woman who gave EST-type courses to actors, in which she promised them a result - not stardom, but something. There was this one guy in the class who would get close to roles but never get them. She called his agent and told the actor, I have wonderful news. You have no talent.Now, the actor was very upset, but the teacher pointed out to him that now, he didn't have to worry - all he had to do was use his charm and his winning personality to sell the role and not worry about the other stuff.She ends her chapter in this book by saying the actor became a household name. Given that this was written at the time that Magnum was so big, I have always suspected the actor was Selleck.Whether it was or not, this role does not play to his strong points. He's not Al Pacino and he shouldn't pretend he is.
SanteeFats Alright, another Jesse Stone movie! I really enjoy them!! Tom Selleck seems to actually live this character. Jesse Stone is the suspended without pay police chief of the small Massachusetts town of Paradise. The town council weenies didn't like how he ran the town's small police force. He ran it to enforce the law (more or less) and they were a lot more worried about the tourists. The state homicide chief hires him as a consultant in an apparent serial killer case. Now the killer is not a serial killer but a soon to be let go lover and secretary of a local drug dealer named Gino Fish. Having a masters in criminal shrinkology this nut case kills the first victim thinking him to be his replacement. He wasn't. The guy goes on to kill two more at random to make it look like a serial killer. Going to Fish Jesse relays some info to him and guess what? the secretary is run over crossing with the light. Saul Rubinek is back as the one time mayor/money launderer. He is now a used car dealer. His character is a sympathetic one even though he is a felon. His ex-wife is played by Krista Allen and she is basically a nympho. She keeps coming on to Jesse but he turns her down every time. Suitcase has been made temporary police chief and while he is a very good cop he does not have the experience to handle the chief's job at this time. As usual in the Stone movies things turn out well. Not that this necessarily a good thing for the bad guys.
markmccracken I have read all the novels and have seen all the movies with Tom Selleck. He will always be remembered as Magnum P.I., but Jesse Stone is his very best work. If you are looking for loads of action No Remorse will not fit the bill. It has excellent characters, very smart dialog and great performances. I am tired of reading how this series is slow. I don't want car chases and super human cops kicking down doors. Tom Selleck's Jesse is flawed, human and holding on for dear life. The supporting case is first rate, William Devane, Saul Rubinek (whose character is very much wounded like Jesse), Stephen McHattie as the State Homicide Captain, Kathy Baker as Rose and Kohn Sudduth as Luther are all excellent, nothing blazing, but the perfect touch by each in support of Tom Selleck. Another under rated performance is William Saddler as Gino Fish, his cat and mouse game with Jesse is always interesting to watch. In No Remorse, Gino lets his his guard down ever so slightly to Jesse, SLIGHTLY, their scenes together are superb. I look forward to Tom Selleck's Jesse Stone, is in many ways the movies characterizations are superior to the novels. That is very hard to do. In No Remorse Jesse is still suspended as Paradise Police Chief, he is drinking heavily. There is a crime wave in town and Luther and Rose are prohibited from talking to Jesse. Capt Healy calls on Jesse for help with apparent serial killer in Boston. The dialog and performances are excellent and my only disappointment was the ending. Of course the ending is the set up for the next Jesse Stone movie Innocents Lost. My final note is that this web site does not make note of this production. My understanding is that production is complete and another movie is being readied for filming.
