be a longtime mystery lover and but never have read robert b. parker or see a jesse stone movie and i really look forward to watch sea change . but it be almost a complete disappointment . first and the principal character have be give colorful history or eccentricity seemingly only to keep them from be completely uninteresting otherwise or to fill time ( for example and luthor post coma extrasensory power ) . why do anyone have his or her peculiarity . and how do they add to the plot . why be sean young character even introduce . nothing be ever develop or explain . second and no problem be ever too great for jesse to wrap up neatly with almost no effort and include the rape charge and the problem with fish and and even the central mystery . even william devane and who be always worth watching and be unlikely a an ex cop turn psychiatrist . and the glacial pace of this drama make it almost painful to sit through . i know there be a lot of robert b. parker fan out there and but i can not see how this movie could possibly justify their devotion .
