Stakeout (Dir. John Badham, 1987): While on an FBI stakeout, detective Chris Lecce (Richard Dreyfuss) falls hard for Maria (Madeleine Stowe), the woman he's supposed to be watching. Soon he's inside her home enjoying a torrid love affair, while his young partner Bill Reimers (Emilio Estevez), waits across the street, looking through his binoculars and fuming. But the woman's ex-boyfriend (Aidan Quinn), a crazed, escaped convict who is the real object of the stakeout, is on his way back to see her and poses a very dangerous threat to the new couple.

Director John Badham's entertaining blend of action and humor highlights the comic timing and chemistry between Dreyfuss and Estevez, who deliver first-rate performances.

Another Stakeout (Dir. John Badham, 1993): Reprising their roles from the original Stakeout, Richard Dreyfuss and Emilio Estevez star as two cops whose specialties are surveillance and trading wisecracks. Added to the mix this time out is Rosie O'Donnell as an assistant D.A. who accompanies the pair on their assignment. Posing as a family, they move into a house next to a couple that may be contacted by their quarry. Another stakeout is underway.
