Goofs

When Jesse and Capt. Healy were shot in the car, the shooter was on the drivers side and shot through the drivers window. The next shot from inside th car show gunshots through the windshield and they are round holes, as would be the case of shots fired from a straight ahead position. Any shots fired by the shooter that might have hit the windshield would show as long narrow slots, if the windshield had not shattered from the angle of the shots hitting it. Also Capt Healy showed a chest wound in the hospital, again the shot would have had to have been shot from the front of the car. All his wounds would have been in his left arm or the left side of his body.

User Reviews

Weakest entry in the series

A fair mystery and secondary plot, but this one doesn't measure up to the previous episodes in the series. Changing Molly to Rose is inexplicable, the town council is larger than the police force and Sidney Greenstreet(!) are just a few of the irritants. Tom Selleck is terrific as usual, Cathy Baker does a fine job as Rose and William Devane is sarcastic and entertaining but the plot with the town council just doesn't seem believable or logical.With the force down to three people with one on light duty, it seems counterproductive to threaten Chief Stone over such petty matters. Oh well, what can you expect from politicians? We hope there are more movies coming. My wife and I really like the Jesse Stone movies, but this one is not as good as the rest, not really bad, just not on par with the rest.
