No Remorse, the sixth entry in the made-for-TV series of Jesse Stone mysteries featuring Robert B. Parker's small-town police chief, is another satisfying blend of detective thrills and character drama, anchored by coproducer-cowriter Tom Selleck's typically fine turn as Stone. Picking up shortly after the events of the previous Stone film, Thin Ice, the action finds Stone struggling with suspension from the force and his alcohol issues; intervention from old friend Commander Healy (Stephen McHattie) gets him back on his feet and on the trail of a serial killer preying on young men. Stone and his deputies (Kathy Baker and Kohl Sudduth) uncover a trail that leads them to Boston mob boss Gino Fish (William Sadler), whose secret past may uncover the guilty party. Meanwhile, Stone has to deal with a rash of convenience store robberies that have turned deadly, as well as his ex-wife and relationship issues with his new dog, Reggie. Though the tone is a bit darker than previous Stone features, and the resolution of the convenience store subplot somewhat rushed, the performances, led by Selleck and abetted by an all-pro supporting cast (which includes William Devane as Stone's shrink and Saul Rubinek as the hapless Hasty Hathaway), are engaging, and the direction by Robert Harmon top-notch. Sadly, No Remorse was the last Jesse Stone film to see production during Parker's lifetime, but under Selleck's stewardship, fans can rest assured that Jesse Stone will continue in good hands. The widescreen DVD offers no extras. --Paul Gaita

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.

I still wish someone in Hollywood would make this into a TV series. I - and all Jesse Stone fans - waited for this movie for over a year! I just hope that the next in the series "Innocents Lost", scheduled to be released later in 2010, will not be put on hold.
"No Remorse" was brilliant. I've read the other reviews and don't understand why some are knocking this movie as portraying Jesse Stone to be a darker character than writer Robert B. Parker created him to be. Really? Have you read the books? Jesse Stone is meant to be a loner haunted with his former life destroyed because of a drinking problem brought about due to Jesse's weakness in dealing with his former wife's affair. Jesse loses it all and must pick up the pieces of his life, all that is left, to begin a new life in Paradise, MA. That's about as dark as it gets. He is a man with some serious issues - issues he is aware of and is working on.
This movie does an outstanding job in revealing Jesse's life suspended from the police force for "too many deaths in Paradise" as we see in the final scenes of "Thin Ice". Now Jesse is moonlighting for Captain Healey (major case) and assisting Rose and Suitcase in their own caper (minor case).
Too Dark? No. I think the last two movies are the best yet. I hope there is more to come after "Innocents Lost" airs. Tom Selleck is great as Jesse Stone. I look forward to these movies like a child waiting for Christmas day. Keep 'em coming.

It's a movie. Isn't it nice to have something to actually look forward to on a Sunday night? Seriously. All the junk on tv these days...it's so nice to be able to anticipate a tv movie besides something from Hallmark. My family had the date marked on the calender for weeks just to be sure we didn't miss it.
Jesse Stone IS a dark character, so it naturally follows that what goes on in the series will be dark. But his interaction with the rest of the cast of characters is so great, and we all can see his developing fondness for Reggie. How could one NOT love Reggie? He loves Reggie but is afraid to let himself show it. Same with his other friendships. CURSE YOU, JEN!
While I really like Kathy Baker, I also miss Molly's character. It would be nice to have them both back in some way. After all, the Paradise PD needs staff, right?
Suitcase is a treasure. I also love the psychiatrist(although I get the urge to break out an inhaler while watching his scenes) and Capt. Healy. Everyone in the show is great. A wonderful cast of character actors. Character actors are the spine of entertainment (ask me--I was a theatre major).
This last episode seemed to bring in so many of the old characters from previous ones. It was great. No, it wasn't quite as good as some of the others, but still, it was great, compared to what we're offered on tv these days.
So keep 'em coming, Tom and crew. Tom Selleck just gets better and better. He was an adorable younger man, and now he's a gorgeous and introspective mature man. It just doesn't get much better than that. Besides, who has ever had a better 'stache or brows? No One!

Jesse Stone. It's raining and it's hard to see. It's how Jesse Stone movies begin. The music is somber.
Jesse Stone, Sheriff of Paradise, job is to see and find out who has killed without regard, without remorse: cold as the night is dark. It's particularity hard to see through the rain at night and wanting to see, to understand becomes a motivating force in Jesse Stone's life. Now that Jesse Stone has been suspended from the force for telling it like it is his job is tougher. At home with Reggie his Golden retriever,
a bottle of booze, Jesse Stone has been left for the moment frustrated. Both Reggie and Jesse Stone are grieving; Jesse Stone has an unfaithful wife and Reggie's owner has died. It is hard to feel good. Yet thankfully Jesse Stone
has his work, has his purpose; find the killer and protect the people he cares for. Jesse Stone is no sloucher; he has been working with a Psychoanalyst to help him not only figure his character out but also find a way into the mind of an obsessed killer. It all sounds familiar to Jesse Stone. As Jesse Stone begins to understand himself his drinks becomes curtailed, and he develops a caring bond with Reggie. Recognizing that solitude has its limits, and booze is a bad friend, Jesse Stone is no longer between a rock and a hard place. Jesse Stone has turned the corner.
RIP Robert B. Parker

sigh .. wonderful as usual. Suitcase, Rose, Healey, and the lot are great with the pretty town of Paradise. So glad he finally decided to nix Madam Queen who couldn't let go of him and played havoc with his emotions (Jen). Keep them coming, Tom!! They are a great tribute to Parker.
