Kelsey Grammer as a cop?

No matter what he says in this TV movie, whether grunting, laughing, yelling or whispering, Kelsey Grammer still sounds like Frasier Crane. I'm not sure he can break out of that role, ever. It was like watching Frasier playing a cop.

It didn't help that the film is really the same old TV movie plot, about an autistic child who witnesses a murder, and then has to be protected by Kelsey the cop, from the sadistic murderers. My husband liked it, I didn't. Really not much worth watching; but if you feel you have to Grammer is the only reason to watch it.

Good flick

Kelsey is great as a cop and is a Jim Belushi type. This nice nice combination of people and action about an autistic kid who is the witness of a crime possibly making him a target.

It should have a higher number and has something for everyone.

an autistic boy who witnesses a murder and is the only one who can help crack the case

Loved this movie!!! Want it at home. Kelsey Grammar did a beautiful job as a cop and very handsome I must say. Great work for Keegan as the autistic child. Hope to see Kelsey in another police detective role like this one. He doesn't, to me, have his Frasierness in the movie what so ever, which I really like, don't get me wrong I love Frasier but I think it is great when someone is very well known for something or someone else such as Kelsey Grammar is for Frasier. He did not seem to be like Frasier at all. I liked the attitude he had as the police officer. I thought he looked really good as a action kinda guy. I liked his attitude towards Keegan's character as well. The movie is great.

A bit embarrassing

Had to watch a film with Kelsey Grammar in it but it so poor it was embarrassing. In his first scene he turns up at the hospital with a black top and white jogging bottoms and a gun on it's holster no jacket - he looked stupid. The acting was poor but the script was worse. Maybe it was the direction because he is better than this and it doesn't have to be comedy. Even Dean Stockwell seemed to be going through the motions. The only good acting was the kid who I thought may really be autistic in real life. Apparently not so he was excellent. You do care about the characters but I'll be taping over it soon.

I thought it was pretty good!

I caught this movie on t.v. and thought it was a pretty good movie. Sure, Kelsey does sound like Frasier but the rest of the cast such as that cuty pie little boy was so cute and very believable as an autistic child. I also enjoyed watching Dean Stockwell, post Quantum Leap in this film. He was excellent in the role as the police chief. All in all a good film!
