JESSE STONE 6: NO REMORSE(2010)
This is the sixth of the Jesse Stone movies, based on the
books written by Robert B. Parker!
These films all star Tom Selleck who is absolutely perfect
in this role!!! Thin Ice is again a dark movie, as are all of
these movies!
Very convoluted movie here! It picks up where the last one,
Thin Ice, left off! Jesse's still on suspension, there's a
rash of murders, Jesse learns that the board plans to
get rid of the whole police department!
If possible, this is even more dark than the others,
but again still a great watch! B+
A review from Amazon.com:
No Remorse, the sixth entry in the made-for-TV series of
Jesse Stone mysteries featuring Robert B. Parker's small-town
police chief, is another satisfying blend of detective thrills and
character drama, anchored by coproducer-cowriter Tom
Selleck's typically fine turn as Stone. Picking up shortly after
the events of the previous Stone film, Thin Ice, the action finds
Stone struggling with suspension from the force and his alcohol
issues; intervention from old friend Commander Healy (Stephen
McHattie) gets him back on his feet and on the trail of a serial
killer preying on young men. Stone and his deputies (Kathy
Baker and Kohl Sudduth) uncover a trail that leads them to
Boston mob boss Gino Fish (William Sadler), whose secret
past may uncover the guilty party. Meanwhile, Stone has to
deal with a rash of convenience store robberies that have
turned deadly, as well as his ex-wife and relationship issues
with his new dog, Reggie. Though the tone is a bit darker
than previous Stone features, and the resolution of the
convenience store subplot somewhat rushed, the performances,
led by Selleck and abetted by an all-pro supporting cast (which
includes William Devane as Stone's shrink and Saul Rubinek
as the hapless Hasty Hathaway), are engaging, and the direction
by Robert Harmon top-notch. Sadly, No Remorse was the last
Jesse Stone film to see production during Parker's lifetime, but
under Selleck's stewardship, fans can rest assured that Jesse
Stone will continue in good hands. The widescreen DVD offers
no extras. --Paul Gaita
