I was totally surprised at how great this film.You could feel your paranoia rise as the film went on and as you gradually learned the details of the real situation.

Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.

Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

I enjoyed all 9 movies. I have all 9. I understand they maybe a 10th in the making. I hope so. Much better than most of the garbage on TV today

The movie is just fine, but the dog should have been put down at the animal shelter, it was sick. Liberals masquerading as Conservatives(Selleck) disgust me. This is some sick stuff. Dogs are not equal to humans in any way shape or form, they do not give their love freely because they do not know what love is. Period. Sick stuff, ignore it, enjoy the rest of the movie.

Some might consider this to be a spoiler so reader be aware.I was so eager to see this movie & was really startled at how slow & dry the beginning was HOWEVER it was necessary to set the tone & put the viewer in the same proverbial boat with Jesse. It was very clever & made me start feeling antsy for the action the same as the character. Well done... very well done. This story had layers & depth. This story had some major ups & downs & Jesse continues to struggle which makes him flawed & so very lovable. Love Steve.I DVR-ed this movie & have watched it multiple times. I will be at the store the day this comes out on video (I HOPE for Christmas). I can't get enough of Jesse Stone. Tom Selleck gives a brilliant performance. I believe Robert B. Parker would be very pleased & they've stayed true to the character.I CAN NOT WAIT for the next one! Good job Hallmark & thank you for giving Jesse Stone a well deserved & perfectly executed home. The Jesse Stone series of movies is my favorite. You gained a loyal viewer from this fan.

I like the Jesse Stone movies probably because I was a fan of the novels: heavy on dialogue, sparse on description. Selleck as writer/collaborator maintained that balance. I don't like the dropping of characters from film to film but that may be because the films are so sporadic and actors need to eat. This entry is slow moving and focuses on Jesse being dissatisfied with the way the "last" victim of a serial killer was put to rest. Jesse battles his usual demons—drink, loneliness, emptiness—and doggedly pursues leads with the aid of a certain disreputable boxing promoter. There are a few toss away scenes with Luke Perry, William Devane, and Kohl Sudduth but that's about it. There is a minor subplot featuring Mackenzie Foy as a troubled teen. But the heart of the story is that the last victim, Mavis, was butchered while she was still alive and Jesse knows even though the serial killings have stopped, Luke Perry wasn't the murderer. In the end you won't be surprised to find out who the guilty party is, just follow the "scrubbed" file to the obvious end. Not the most satisfying film of the series. I did like Steve the dog.
