Spotlight customer reviews:
Customer Rating: Summary: Jesse Stone - Death in Paradise Comment: Good movie, very true to Robert Parker's books. Tom Selleck is perfect as Robert Parker's Jesse Stone. I have purchased the whole collection. Customer Rating: Summary: Selleck a great fit Comment: Tom Selleck is perfect for the role of Jesse Stone. I always prefer a book to a movie and this is no exception. The Robert B. Parker series featuring Jesse Stone is just great. But this movie does a fine job of capturing the essence of the story. There are some major changes, but they do not detract from the enjoyment of this movie. (Unlike "Sea Changes" which, unfortunately, bears little or no resemblance to the book.) I would recommend this movie very highly, but if you haven't read the books, you really should. Customer Rating: Summary: Flawless Comment: Tom Selleck was born to play this character. His delivery is flawless! I hope he continues to produce these gems for quite some time to come. The setting and supporting cast members are wonderful. And if the hold list at the libary is any indication (I'm number 36 in line and their are 15 copies!) I'm not the only one who loves this series. I plan on buying all three DVDs for my collection as well. Thank you Mr. Selleck for your wonderful work here. Customer Rating: 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" and battles against alcoholism.
While life in Paradise is slow and for the most part the Chief of Police only gives out traffic or parking tickets, a series of murders take place, and in this episode a young student is murdered and a wife is battered by her alcoholic husband.
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!
Customer Rating: Summary: Tom Selleck is Great Comment: I love Tom Selleck in this role. He has the Stone character down really well. Even though the character in the book is supposed to be much younger, I can't imagine anyone but Selleck in this role. He makes an alcoholic, ex-LAPD cop turned police chief the kind of police chief I would want in my city.
