Jesse Stone: Im Zweifel für den Angeklagten (TV Movie 2012)

Jesse Stone: Im Zweifel für den Angeklagten: Directed by Robert Harmon. With Tom Selleck, Kathy Baker, Kohl Sudduth, Gloria Reuben. Jesse Stone comes out of involuntary retirement after the sheriff who replaced him exploded in their police car. The other officers Jesse worked with have left the department so he is forced to solve the crime on his own.

“This show starts out with a bang, literally. In a small, coastal town, two policemen die in a car bombing while out on a routine call. That certainly got my attention. Retired L.A. detective Jesse Stone is appointed to investigate. After that, the story wanders. We get to meet the various locals who live in the gloomy community with its rocky coast and gray weather, a place which has clearly seen better days. Itu0026#39;s filled with cynical people one comes to expect in a movie like this. As expected, Stone (played well enough by Tom Sellink) asks questions of people, trying to find clues. As far as I could tell, but only finds little hints. In fact, the investigation doesnu0026#39;t go anywhere until the last half hour and the ending was very rushed. It also seems as if a sequel is being set up at the end.”
