Editorial Reviews

Tom Selleck reprises his role as Jesse Stone, the anguished and relentless former police Chief in the small town of Paradise, Massachusetts. While in self-imposed seclusion following his suspension from the Paradise Police Force, a mysterious series of related murders in nearby Boston draws Stone back into the fold. Before long, he’s following a crooked path that leads to none other than the city’s most notorious crime boss Gino Fish (William Sadler).

Based upon characters created in best-selling author Robert B. Parker’s Jesse Stone books. Co-starring William Devane and Kathy Baker, Jesse Stone: No Remorse is a trip to Paradise that you will not want to miss!

4.0 out of 5 stars Remorse Code, May 9, 2010

This review is from: Jesse Stone: No Remorse (DVD)

As a result of his Thin Ice feud with the Paradise City Council, police chief Jesse Stone is suspended from his duties and his former colleagues on the force are forbidden to talk to him. Jesse is pretty depressed and drinking a lot, but he does finally decide talking to his ex-wife Jen is a bad idea.

Things start to look up when Healey of the state police invites Jesse to consult on an apparent serial killer case in Boston and there's been a rash of convenience store robberies in Paradise that Rose and Acting Police Chief Suitcase feel inadequate to cope with. Since Jesse also spends a lot of time with his psychiatrist trying to figure out why he can't give his dog affection, his schedule fills up fast. He also needs to learn how to use a cell phone since there was an, ah, unfortunate accident with his land line. Because of the interdiction on Jesse's communication with Suitcase and Rose, the cell phone becomes a plot point and the cloak and dagger element just misses being comic.

Jesse doggedly pursues the serial killer who seems to have a connection with the boxing promoter Gino Fish, and aids Rose and Suitcase, who need Jesse's help in identifying the perpetrator of the convenience store robberies from security tapes. The entire Paradise police department in a superb display of teamwork catches the convenience store perp. The serial killer case is wrapped up in the last few minutes of the movie in an incredible twist that left me saying, `Huh?'

With No Remorse, the movie character of Jesse Stone diverges irrevocably from that of the late lamented Robert Parker's books. He's more angst-ridden and struggles in ways the book Jesse doesn't. No Remorse, co-written by Tom Selleck, is dark. All the characters are having major problems both on and off the job to the point that it's almost painful to watch. The delightful repartee that's always been a feature of the Jesse Stone movies is much heavier handed and honestly, the movie could use some comic relief in addition to Jesse's problems with his cell phone. Several plot threads were left dangling but I read there will be at least one more Jesse Stone movie, so perhaps things will be resolved.

Three and a half stars rounded up to four. I really missed the lightness of touch of the earlier entries. And I still miss Molly.

This review is from: Jesse Stone: No Remorse (DVD)

Good News, Bad News. The good: that Tom Selleck is continuing his role as Jesse Stone, the aging, half-alcoholic police chief in Robert B. Parker's series set in Paradise, Massachusetts. The bad: that with Parker's death, this series of made-for-tv movies may be at an end. Back to the good: that Selleck was producer and co-author of this last episode, called "No Remorse." Suit and Rose are running the department alone, because the town council has suspended Jesse and banned them from even speaking to Jesse. The story line involves two cases, a series of armed robberies of convenience stores in Paradise and what appears to be a series of three murders in Boston. Jesse is helping his old Boston buddy Healey as an intuitive assistant on the Boston murders. And he's also helping Suit and Rose with their case, knowing that they will need to solve it to keep their jobs. Some viewers object to the darkness of this episode, missing the light banter so typical of Parker's style. I disagree with the objectors, finding the character, as Selleck has defined him in this episode as well as the first four, to be perfectly in keeping with Parker's original intent. And I hope there will be at least one more in Selleck's repertoire before he's done with it. I simply have to see him and Suit and Rose back on the force together, and Jesse's growing love for Reggie, the setter with the biggest, most mournful eyes since Boomer. That would be truly good news.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Actor, Good Story, Good Ending, May 10, 2010

This review is from: Jesse Stone: No Remorse (DVD)

I believe they did Robert Parker justice when they opted to have Tom Selleck portray Jesse Stone. He does an excellent job of it. He's moody, drowning in booze, non-talkative with one word answers. He's lonely as hell, craves human & animal affection, but will never admit to it.
No Remorse does a nice job of fitting two story lines together. It melds them very well. The ending delving into the Paradise Police Department's staffs future. is a cliffhanger that fits well. Oh, Reggie is adorable
Sad to see "In Memory of Robert B. Parker" at the end though. He will be missed
