Jesse Stone: No Remorse

We thought that Jesse Stone No Remorse was excellent. Tom Selleck is at his best playing Jesse and he is as handsome as ever!!! We were a little frustrated at the ending but will just have to wait until Innocents Lost airs. Jesse is very methodical in looking at crime scene videos and he is very adept at recreating the actual crime scenes. I love the way he interacts with Rose. Maybe in the next instalment, Innocents Lost, he will become involved with Rose, and forget about his ex. Hopefully, at the hearing, Jesse, Rose and Luthor will be reinstated. The casting of William Sadler as Gino is great. I remember him from Die Hard 2 but in Jesse Stone he is perfect in the part. He still looks to be in great shape. Can't wait for the next Jesse Stone.

I am a huge fan of Jesse Stone series of movies. The storylines are well written ,and acted by a wonderful cast. The location is stunning , and adds to the moody atmosphere ,and the gentle unobtrusive background music creates a mysterious foreboding feel throughout. If I have any criticism it would be the constant stream of women offering themselves to Jesse on a platter! Yes he is" Magnum PI The Hunk! " , however, I do find it a little cheesy , It kind of seems that there are not too many available men, and too many single women in the town, and nearby area ! Jesse, show some self control, and stop giving these poor women false hope!!! However, that applies to each movie in the series. For me " No Remorse" was equally as engaging and interesting as the previous ones . Slow and deliberate , atmospheric and deep....... a winning formula.

No Remorse, the latest installment of the magnificent Jesse Stone series is only for those who love good character driven drama performed by some of today's greatest character actors. And its for those who can appreciate lens work which teases our senses with charming Cape Cod scenery in contrast to gritty Boston backdrops. The multiple story lines keep it moving, some stories meandering through the work like a brook through the salt meadows, still others rushing with the force of a North Atlantic tide. But all the stories flow in the same direction, some to a conclusion and others to a continuance... like stories do in real life. And as in real life, Jesse's flawed character remains but we can forgive him. After all, who among us has not experienced a broken heart, if not a broken spirit? And who has not witnessed the struggle of loved ones with substance abuse? Talented, productive people with a problem... we have all known one and in some cases we have been one. And so we can all root for Jesse and in doing so we root for ourselves.

Robert B. Parker was a master. Tom Selleck is perfect as Jesse. These movies are well made. But Parker was a dog lover. The ongoing theme of Jesse showing Reggie, the dog, no affection .......is bullshit. Pet the GD dog. Tell him he's a good boy. What the hell is wrong with whoever decided this was a good change from Parker's writing? The movie does Mr. Parker a disservice and the franchise should be ashamed.

It has been a long time since I watched a series with such a delight. The Jesse Stone series is surely going into TV-History. It is beyond time and will be watchable even in 50 years from now. Tom Selleck is an icon of the 80's, but I'm sure he will be remembered for these wonderful movies. Tom is playing with minimalism, but every word, look, and breath is telling more than any short handed written hip cop series can say.

The pictures and the music are leading you into the small town world perfectly. If you are open for it, you can dive in and follow.

Even from an European perspective I can tell, that America can be proud of such a quality TV-work.
