Product Description A hard-edged former Los Angeles cop has become the police chief in a small New England town and reopens an unsolved murder case.
Amazon.com Tom Selleck's reliably appealing performance in the title role carries Jesse Stone: Sea Change, the fourth in the series of films based on Robert B. Parker's novels. His Jesse Stone is one gloomy dude; fired from his job as a detective with the LAPD, unhappily divorced from his wife (with whom he still talks daily on the telephone), and now police chief in a picturesque but sleepy New England burg ironically called Paradise, Stone has relieved his boredom and general disaffection by taking to the bottle. But things are about to change. First one of the local girls accuses a visiting yachtsman, in town for Racing Week, of rape, an allegation that may or may not be true (in a scenario straight out of Jaws, when the presence of a shark threatened to ruin a holiday weekend, the tourism-obsessed Paradise town council wants to sweep this one under the rug as swiftly as possible). Then there's a robbery-murder case dating back a dozen years or more, which Stone at first takes on simply so he'll have something to do but later becomes a good deal more complicated. Sea Change is a great-looking film, with a lovely setting, gorgeous cinematography, and a golden retriever that can be relied on for adorable reaction shots. But it's also a TV movie of the week, which in this instance means that it's almost entirely predictable, with professional but less-than-convincing performances by actors dealing with a script in which the characters simply don't talk like real people (Kathy Baker and Kohl Sudduth as fellow cops are among the few exceptions). As for Jesse Stone, well, this is Tom Selleck we're talking about, and drunk or not, he is still thoroughly likable, not to mention a major chick magnet. That alone will be enough to entertain viewers looking for some easy escapism. --Sam Graham

TV At Its Best August 28, 2010 Adam Love (USA) This is the Fourth movie in the Jesse Stone series. It continues the same great entertainment viewers have come to expect. If you have never seen this series of specials, don't think of them as "sequels". Think of them as stand-alone chapters in an on-going storyline. Unlike movie sequels, the entertainment value does not deteriorate with each new chapter. TV hasn't been this good in a long time. Don't ever stop making these!
SEA CHANGE August 27, 2010 G. A. Hudspeth (Dallas/FtWorth,TX) THIS IS A GREAT MOVIE IN THE SERIES, THIS MOVIE IS A MUST HAVE FOR THE TOM SELLECK FAN----CAN'T WAIT UNTIL MORE ARE MADE, TOM SELLECK IS BACK ON TOP.
Jesse Stone: Sea Change August 4, 2010 Linda H. I have all the Jesse Stone movies except the last one and we have really enjoyed all of them..I hope there are more to come.
very enjoyable July 4, 2010 Leah Verderame (California, USA) We have enjoyed another evening of movie watching in our own home with no commercials
Tom Selleck is back June 12, 2010 John Benavidez II I have read all the Jesse Stone novels, and the movies are just as good if not even better. Tom Selleck (Magnum) is great as Jesse Stone. He brings a real face to what you have read in the novels. Playing a now and then drunk Police Chief, Selleck shows why after all these years he is still loved.
Having watched and loved Spencer for Hire, the late author Robert B. Parker has done it again with Jesse Stone. Perhaps we may even some day see a Jesse Stone TV series.
