AutCuddly Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,

Dirtylogy It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.

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

Staci Frederick Blistering performances.

FlashCallahan A witness against the Mafia is being secretly held till the trial when an attempt on her life is made that kills several of her guards. She disappears and Bill and Chris are sent to, guess what? Another Stakeout. This one is arranged by the D.A.'s office and comes with Gina who is to keep an eye on them since the observation post is a vacation resort community in the home of a judge.And many times in the background, you can just make out John Badham trying to recapture the magic....The first Stakeout was a fresh, fun movie. It had a serious plot, but the comedy spark between the two leads made the film just that little more than a cop movie.Times must have been hard for the two stars and the director, because although the film is highly watchable, as soon as we get to the titular part of the film, it all seems to go downhill.Estevez and Dreyfuss are more or less separated for the majority of the film, and it's up to Rosie O' Donnell to try and get that chemistry from the first film. She doesn't.But the first twenty minutes is as good as the first film. There is an amazing explosion in the opening ten minutes, one that Jerry Bruckheimer should be envious of, and the initial chase scene with the two leads is as funny and as immature as you would expect.So the decision to separate the two is a little pointless, just as is the inclusion of Madeline Stowe returning to do nothing more than give Dreyfuss a little grief via the phone.But if you were a fan of the first film, there is a little bit of fun to be had...

AttyTude0 Another reviewer said there's a caveat to this film. It's hard to find. Hard, maybe. Impossible, alas, no. Hubby found it, more's the pity.I saw the first Stakeout. It was not bad. Not brilliant, but quite watchable. I am very wary about sequels and rot like Stakeout 2 is the reason. The makers of this film hit on every single cliché with dismal regularity: from the dysfunctional married couple/family to the 'clever woman who kicks dumb men @$$' (hah, hah, hah), to toilet humor, they didn't leave one out. Not one. I don't know who told these guys that people shouting their heads off at each other is funny, but he certainly told them to pitch it strong. The only reason I'm going on is that I cannot submit a review less than ten lines long. Oh, and to add insult to injury, Rosie O'Donnell is in this mess, in all her loud, shrill obnoxiousness (can she be anything else?).Give this one a pass, do your brain cells a favor. Do your laundry, walk your dog, watch the grass on your lawn grow. Anything, but avoid this (bleep).

Welshfilmfan I've not seen the original movie so I don't know how this sequel compares in comparison, but on it's own merits, 'Another Stakeout' isn't too bad and actually quite enjoyable, despite Rosie O'Donnell getting on my nerves throughout.Richard Dreyfuss & Emilio Estevez play DET.Chris Leece & DET.Bill Reimers respectively and are joined by 'comic-relief' Assistant D.A Gina Garrett played by the universally annoying Rosie O'Donnell along with her Rottweiller pet dog as all three are staking out a lakeside home on a remote Island, where a Mafia trial witness is supposed to be going to, so as cover they pretend to be Husband,Wife & son with 'hilarious' results.... The comedy is absolutely dire and does jar with the occasional bouts of violence.co-starring Dennis Farina & Miguel Ferrerall in all not a great film by any means but worth watching if you've nothing better to do*** out of *****

sheptamler What a hidden treasure this movie is! Quite possibly the best sequel ever, though that MIGHT be a toss-up with Godfather 2.Richard Dreyfus is always a solid actor, but his work here really deserved an Oscar.Emelio Estevez might be best known for being Charlie Sheen's sane brother, but check out this movie and you'll be a life long Estevez fan, like I am.Of course, it goes without saying that this is the movie that made Rosie O'Donnell. Before this film, she was just a bit player. A stand-up comedienne. But this is where she made her mark. Even Donald Trump would agree that she's genius in this near-masterpiece of a movie.
