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... Full review

The first time I saw Another Stakeout was on opening night back in 1993. I had just gone through a nasty divorce and was living out of my Saturn. And I was floored by this movie. As the final credits rolled... Full review

Where to start... I genuinely appreciated Rosie O'Donnels performance in this film. Totally believable. The action scenes were epic, and I think influenced a lot of movies that came after it... specifically buddy cop sequels. The jokes were hilarious and the... Full review

Before we get started, a little caveat for the reader: this may not be the easiest film to find. Your standard video rental outlets will be hit or miss, as well as libraries. Your best bet will be an online rental... Full review

Reading others comments on Another Stakeout, I can't believe we watched the same film. It is one of our family's favorite movies. It's not deep or meaningful, but when you talk about sheer comedic genius while at the same time having... Full review

Don't ask me why but when I was younger I would often watch this movie and the first one; "Stakeout". Of those two movies this is the one that has always stayed most in my mind. Basically this movie is just... Full review

Director John Badham created a classic in the "buddy action" genre when he directed the original "Stakeout". He blended gritty cop drama with fun action sequences, romance, and humor resulting in a unique and entertaining cinema experience. So what to do... Full review

This film is not as bad as everyone seems to make out! Granted, you do have to look past certain elements, i.e. Rosie O'Donnell (the movie-killer) and the lack of a hugely complex story-line. But after watching the first film you... Full review

Final Thoughts : A pretty uninvolving sequel that's balanced more towards awkward comedy than action, "Another Stakeout" is a pretty disapointing effort. Recommended for fans of the film only; not recommended otherwise. ... Full Review

However, that was six years ago, and while "Another Stakeout" must have looked good on paper, the film seems like a hurried proposition that could have used another screenplay draft. Perhaps the film's worst miscalculation, however, is having Madeleine Stowe's character return from time to time for an extended but unbilled cameo. ... Full Review

However, that was six years ago, and while "Another Stakeout" must have looked good on paper, the film seems like a hurried proposition that could have used another screenplay draft. Another Stakeout" is rated PG-13 for violence (which seems truncated, edited down to purposely avoid the R rating of the original film), profanity and vulgar dialogue. ... Full Review

Another Stakeout has some entertainment value if you seek a few good laughs and over-the-top, mostly senseless action, and don't really give a damn as to how it's presented. It's usually a bad sign for a comedy when things are desperate enough for the director to go to a dog for a funny reaction shot, and Another Stakeout does this more than once. ... Full Review

Throwing a cranky woman (and her dog) into the already volatile mix might have sounded like a brilliant idea at first pitch, but O'Donnell's sizable talents as a comedienne bring little to Badham's convoluted storyline. Surely this couldn't be a sequel to that tedious, manically unfunny buddy-cop movie from 1987. ... Full Review

There's lots of shouting and very little plot in this too-often- tedious sequel to the entertaining original. Embarrassments and misunderstandings far outweigh the action in this story and, although Richard Dreyfuss and Emilio Estevez are back on duty, it just... ... Full Article
