    Editorial Reviews

    Though John Badham's Stakeout doesn't flinch in the violence department, the film concentrates primarily on characterization. Richard Dreyfuss and Emilio Estevez play a pair of Seattle detectives, assigned to capture escaped hood Aidan Quinn. The twosome spends much of the film on stakeout in a lonely, deserted house; the object of their scrutiny is Madeline Stowe, Quinn's former girlfriend. Pretending to be a telephone repairman, Dreyfuss plants a bug in Stowe's apartment--thereby inaugurating a romance that compromises the detective's objectivity. In the climax, Quinn gets the upper hand--at least until the fists start flying. Perfect as it stood, Stakeout didn't need to be elaborated upon with a sequel, but Another Stakeout was produced all the same. Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

    October 02, 2002: This is one of the funniest movies I've seen in a long time. Dreyfuss and Estevez are in top form playing detectives on a stakeout. Stowe is as sexy as ever playing Dreyfuss's love interest. The blend of comedy and action is carried off well by director John Badham. You'll roll off the couch laughing. Just avoid the sequel at all costs.
