Customer Reviews

Great!
Came upon this movie quite by chance when surfing Amazon.com. It arrived yesterday. Just finished watching it. Even though it is approx 3 hours in length, it kept us spellbound right to the very end. This movie is proof that one can have an interesting mystery without all the foul language. Hightly recommend this one.

Detective is worthy your time
Tom Berenger's newest release, "Detective" is an engrossing but long movie with excellent character development, exciting episodes, and a very good and emotional secondary theme with Tom's usual stellar performance. I really recommend this DVD. It is taken from a series (I believe) but well-directed and edited. I especially admired the performance by Sybil Shepard as the detective's ex-wife who loves him deeply. Their scenes with the counselor are especially effective and ring true. You will watch this one over and over again - I did - mainly, for me anyway, because Tom is in almost every scene and who can't love that - plus it is great entertainment all the way!

Well-developed story that's worth your money and watching time
The plot is well-developed to keep you stay still with the screen so that you cannot miss any scene. A good movie that deserves to be owned and kept in your priceless collection.
