In Stakeout, cop Richard Dreyfuss fell in love with Madeline Stowe, the woman he and his partner Emilio Estevez were watching during a police stakeout. Stowe's back in Another Stakeout, but her part is fleeting and unbilled. On the other hand, we get plenty of Dreyfuss and Estevez, still both as cantankerous and obnoxious as ever. This time, our two heroes are in search of a Mafia witness who has disappeared after an attempt on her life. While holed up in a judge's mansion, staking out the apartment where the woman may or may not return, the pair are subject to the comic aggravation of DA's assistant Rosie O'Donnell, who's brought her "darling" little rotweiler along for company. Another Stakeout works a little harder for its laughs than its predecessor; the best scenes go to Ms. O'Donnell and to nonplussed supporting players Dennis Farina and Marcia Strassman. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

Richard Dreyfuss and Emilio Estevez return with Rosie O'Donnell in director John Badham's sequel Another Stakeout. Presented in very nice 2.35:1 anamoprhic widescreen transfer, this picture sports solid colors, black levels and flesh tones throughout. Aside of a small amount of edge enhancement in the image, this transfer looks great and should please fans. The soundtrack is presented in Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround in English and works very well with the film that it's supporting. With crystal clear dialogue, effects and music and a few well placed directional effects, this 5.1 mix is better-than-expected and a welcome addition to this disc. No alternate soundtracks or subtitles are available on this disc. Sadly, fans of the film are stuck with a completely bare bones release -- not a single extra feature has been included on this disc. ~ Patrick Naugle, All Movie Guide
