Summary: Came real quick!
Comment: the product arrived in great condition, we watched it that night. I couldn't believe the speed at which it came-I wish that 3rd party retailers for Amazon would ship their items with such enthusiasm. Amazon needs to instill a condition in regards to 3rd party retailers, that they must send their items (books & movies) using USPS Priority Mail-the cost that is charged is the same versus having to wait four weeks for your purchases. Not only using USPS Priority Mail to speed up delivery, using Priority Mail will ensure a much better chance of deliverys not getting lost. That has happened twice in regards to books I've purchased through 3rd party retailers. Amazon, please listen and please do something about shipping by 3rd party retailers who sell their products (books & movies) through you.

Summary: Tom Selleck's Best Role!
Comment: The Jesse Stone character is the best role Tom Selleck has ever played. He was great as Thomas Magnum, fantastic in Quigley Down Under,(and of course wonderful in pretty much anything he does), but this role seems to have been written especially for him. I just wish he'd do a weekly TV series or at least do more of these Jesse Stone movies. I buy them as soon as they come out on DVD, and am chomping at the bit for the next one to be released!

Summary: Fourth movie in the series, not our favorite
Comment: Jesse Stone: Sea Change
This is the fourth movie in the Jesse Stone series, derived from Robert B. Parker's novels. In this one, there are once again two storylines. The first involves an old bank robbery and murder of the bank teller that was taken hostage. The second involves the rape of a young girl on a yacht.
This movie picks up right where the last one left off. Deputy "Suit" comes out of his coma and suddenly has remarkable intuition. Molly is on maternity leave and her predecessor Rose (Kathy Baker) is doing dispatch. Hasty, the bank president that was put away for money laundering in the third movie is back because it turns out the bank robbery haul was $2 million, not just $20,000. Robert Genest, the thug that was killed in the third movie, is dead, but his brother shows up in this one, following Jesse (Tom Selleck) around for a mafia don.
We had the twist in the bank robbery figured out rather quickly, long before it's revealed in the movie. That was a bit disappointing. The resolution for the rape was also rather disappointing. Of all the movies in the series, Stone Cold was by far our favorite, although we like Rose almost as much as Molly, and Suit's new intuition is pretty funny. Jesse's longtime infatuation with his cheating ex-wife is now old and his drinking is much worse. Deputy D'Angelo is even more of a jerk in this one, still sore over not being chosen for Jesse's job. And we're wondering how many of those Genest brothers are out there.
I picked up one of Parker's novels and tried reading it. The dialogue wasn't as good as the screenplay and the plot moved very slowly compared to the movies. So I guess I'll just wait for the next movie to come out.
The previous movies in the series (in chronological order) are: Night Passage, Stone Cold, and Death in Paradise.

Summary: Tom Selleck at his best
Comment: Tom Selleck is beyond great in these movies about Chief Stone. The director and filming is also superior. I was pleasantly surprised at these series of movies. I did not expect such a high standard of acting and direction. Thumbs up for Tom Selleck in particular.

Summary: Tom Selleck at his best...
Comment: The second of a series we recently acquired, Death in Paradise is a great find because Tom Selleck is one of our favorite actors and we own the entire Magnum PI collection. In this series a more mature but still incredibly handsome Tom Selleck plays the character of the Chief of Police of a small New England town called Paradise, Massachusetts.
Jesse Stone is a former Los Angeles homicide detective who left life in the big city and is now underemployed, but still doing service to the community, which he loves. He is divorced from the "only woman he is able to love" but still talks to her each and every night, and is now seeing a psychiatrist who is helping him with his issues to attempt to stop his addiction to alcohol. At some point the shrink makes Jesse realize that he is able to avoid drinking only when a case is serious and has him totally involved in finding a solution, so he goes out of his way to find cases and tries to resolve an old murder that took place a few years back.
Life in Paradise is slow and for the most part the Chief of Police only gives out traffic or parking tickets. In this episode a local girl accuses a yachtsman of rape, a man who is visiting town during Racing Week which is rather important to the local economy.
The old robbery - murder case becomes rather interesting as we see the detective work uncovering details that finally solve the mystery. While the case is being solved, we have the opportunity to witness great photography and the scenes by the sea are simply magnificent. As with all DVD's, our favorite part is the opportunity to watch the special features and we saw the interview with Tom Selleck where we learned that he was involved in the production of this film.
Don't miss it, the pace is slow but introspective, the plot is deep and intelligent, and you are left with feeling admiration for a man that has done wrong things while always attempting to do what is right!
