Christmas on Candy Cane Lane (2022 TV Movie)

Really, GAC????

[2/10 · 4 December 2022]

2 points for Dan Payne. I loved his movies particularly the one based on Karen Kingsbury's book. But this one is a "BIG DUD." I am so disappointed because this movie could have been a good one. Andrea "Kimmy" Barber has a long way to go to be in lead position. Honestly, the cop and the handyman should have been the leads. They made watching enjoyable.

Candace Cameron Bure should not picked lead actress or actor based on friendship alone. GAC is still trying to be in competition with Hallmark. But the way I see it, it'll not happen anytime soon based on the movies being shown. GAC 2021 Christmas movies were much better than 2022 (before Bure showed up). 🤗

Please, Mr. Abbott. Do something. You made Hallmark great for 20 years.

I quit watching Hallmark for 2 years now since I felt they started embracing wokeism. I might hold my nose and start watching Hallmark again. GAC is regressing instead of showing progress.

A Merry Christmas Wish (2022 TV Movie)

Jill Wagner .... But....

[9/10 · 14 November 2022]

Personally, if it's Jill Wagner it's a 10!!! But not this one. Something is off about this movie. There is big time mismatched between leads. Not enough chemistry unlike the awesome connections between Jill and Nick Bateman in A Christmas Miracle For Daisy. Chemistry between leads makes movies interesting and fun to watch. Nicole (Deanna Jarvis) and little Gracie (Taya Messier) did their part extremely well and noticeable. Let me just say, I have watched Cameron's movies in the past, sorry but not a fan🤗 I really hope that GAC will create another Jill and Nick Batsman's movie soon. We can only hope 😊

Francesca Quinn, PI (2022 TV Movie)

NOT!!!!!! SO GOOD

[1/10 · 26 September 2022]

First of all, thank you HMM for showing Mystery 101 marathon before this not so good new PI show. Mystery 101 fans was able to binged watch the best detective show HMM has ever created.

HMM should once again consider to continue new episodes with Mystery 101, especially after the ending of Deadly History. Mr. Plummer in corroborations with Robin Bernstein and Lee Goldberg must create episode 8.

Francesca Quinn is way below the feeding pole. The leads' actings were below mediocre and forgettable. The story is a has-been, same-o, same-o., far fetched and plain stupid. There was no chemistry between leads. Waste of time.

Cut, Color, Murder (2022 TV Movie)

Snoozer!!!!!!

[1/10 · 8 February 2022]

This one doesn't even deserve a 1! The leads' actings were forgettable and mediocre. The story is far fetched and just plain stupid. The only good thing that HMM did was the Mystery 101 marathon before this movie! It gave Mystery 101 fans to binge-watched the show. 🤗

A Christmas Miracle for Daisy (2021 TV Movie)

A very touching Christmas movie

[10/10 · 12 December 2021]

OMG! Jill is back and she didn't disappoint! The casts are well-chosen who played their roles extremely well. The story touched your heart that miracles do happen. I am blown away and could not believe that this is the first for Rubi. I can see a bright future for this girl in many movies. She was so confident. Nick and Jill had awesome chemistry. I hope to see them again in future movies.

Thank you GAC!!!!!

Jingle Bell Princess (2021 TV Movie)

Perfect Royal Christmas

[9/10 · 5 December 2021]

The story was so simple but goes to your heart. Merritt played her role perfectly including her accent. She is becoming one of my favorite. Trevor was likable on this movie as well.

Thank you GAC for creating wholesome, family oriented movies. For giving Hallmark a run for their money.

Mystery 101: Deadly History (2021) Season 1, Episode 7

WOW! Excellent Installment

[10/10 · 2 August 2021]

Mystery 101 is the best mystery series HMM has ever created. Each episode is better than previous ones. Jill and Kris are the most talented among Hallmark actors. Kudos to the writers!

On this episode, it was hard to guess bad guys from good ones. It seemed that everyone was suspect.

I watched this episode with a group of friends. We were so excited that Amy and Travis showed more PDAs and proclaimed love with each other. Until "11 months later" and Travis said "he is Amy's fiancé." That one statement burst our bubbles. Can't wait for the next one.

We are in the 21st century! Being pregnant and working is not a sin 🤗

Love, for Real (2021 TV Movie)

Ditto: Don't waste your time

[1/10 · 1 August 2021]

What's happening with Hallmark? Did you fire the talented writers you have in the past? What a waste of resources 👎 This movie is unwatchable!

You Had Me at Aloha (2021 TV Movie)

👎

[1/10 · 6 June 2021]

Can't go beyond 30 minutes watching this ridiculous movie. Hallmark, you made this the 2021 summer night opener? I pay too much to subscribe HM and HMM. Aurora Teagarden Mysteries but especially Mystery 101 are the two shows that keep me from dropping my subscription. I wish I can only subscribe to HMM. Maybe HM needs new writers. LOL what a waste of resources.

Matchmaker Mysteries: The Art of the Kill (2021) Season 1, Episode 3

Bad, Bad, So Bad

[1/10 · 20 April 2021]

Hallmark, why is this series still on? Is it because Danica is one of the Executive Producer? Please save your reputation. I am one of those who pay too much to subscribe Hallmark and this is what you can come up with? Danica is so annoying to watch because she cannot act normal. Everything with her is fake. Her facial expressions are extremely nauseating to watch. As for Victor, I have never seen him in any movie act uninterested, just delivering his lines. No chemistry between leads. Can't blame him for that.

This is the worst movie series HMM has ever created. After 30 minutes, Rizzoli and Isles was so much fun to watch 🤗

Mystery 101: Killer Timing (2021) Season 1, Episode 6

DOUBLE WOW!!!

[10/10 · 22 March 2021]

This is the best of the series by far! Kudos to the writers! The twist and turn of events keep you guessing! Amy (aka Sherlock) somehow sees and solve the mystery that surprises everyone. No doubt that Mystery 101 is the best mystery series that HMM has ever created! In addition, the chemistry between Jill and Kris is s unbelievably awesome! Hallmark, please keep the series coming!

Fit for a Prince (2021 TV Movie)

Super cute!!!

[9/10 · 7 March 2021]

Natalie is becoming one of my favorite. Her wittiness made this movie so much fun to watch. Jonathan was not too bad either. He played his role as expected. 👍

It Was Always You (2021 TV Movie)

Bad, bad hair

[1/10 · 1 March 2021]

Nothing else to say. Can't watch the whole movie! Painful to watch.

Sincerely, Yours, Truly (2020 TV Movie)

Super cute movie!!!

[9/10 · 21 February 2021]

This is a 2020 movie but first time I've seen it. The chemistry between leads was awesome. I love Natalie Hall since A Winter Princess. She did not disappoint on this one also. I am now a fan of Marshall Williams. I hope to see more movies with these two.

Beverly Hills Wedding (2021 TV Movie)

Another miss 😳

[1/10 · 7 February 2021]

Are Hallmark's good writers on strike??? This is another bad movie. There is no plot except for the annoying sister who took over the wedding plans without asking the bride & groom's permission. Seriously!! Brendan Penny had some good movies but he was doomed on this one.

Snowkissed (2021 TV Movie)

Extremely Boring

[1/10 · 1 February 2021]

Chris is one of my favorite but Jen????? Just awful, stoic, whining Jen. I can only take 15 minutes and I'm done.

A Christmas Carousel (2020 TV Movie)

DISASTER!!!

[1/10 · 20 December 2020]

There was something really bad from start to finish. The fake accent, make up (lead actor) plus wearing suits that appeared to be 2 sizes smaller. Holy cow, this was the worse Hallmark movie ever created. The dialogue between leads are horribly awkward. Come on Hallmark. You can do better! This year has been very disappointing. You were trying to be politically correct in some movies. Maybe you need to always remember the phrase "quality over quantity." At least, Hallmark Movies and Mysteries has better movie selections and so has Lifetime and Up.

Love, Lights, Hanukkah! (2020 TV Movie)

Nothing to brag about

[2/10 · 13 December 2020]

The acting is so amateurish. No chemistry between the leads. Not my cup of tea. One time watch for me.

The Angel Tree (2020 TV Movie)

Great premise and Jill is baaack!!!!!!

[10/10 · 23 November 2020]

Per usual, if it's Jill it's a 10. She played her role perfectly. She is undoubtedly the best Hallmark actress. Lucas surprised me by talking a little more on this movie. There was instant chemistry between him and Jill. Cassidy (Cassie) cannot be outdone either. Her smart comments sometimes made it hilarious. This movie warms your heart. Christmas is truly the season of giving and helping the less fortunate. Thank you, Hallmark!!!!

A Nashville Christmas Carol (2020 TV Movie)

Bad Movie

[1/10 · 22 November 2020]

The plot is all over the place. It is so frustrating to watch. Hallmark, really!!! Past, present, then past again. I stopped watching after 45 minutes. Too bad, Wes is one of my favorite. Waste of time.

Jingle Bell Bride (2020 TV Movie)

Flat and boring

[1/10 · 25 October 2020]

2020 season opener 👎, really Hallmark??? I am speechless!!!!!!

Matchmaker Mysteries: A Fatal Romance (2020) Season 1, Episode 2

DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME!!!!!!

[1/10 · 28 April 2020]

This mystery series is the worst HMMM series ever created. Mckellar should stick with romcom. She is not cut out to be a wanna be detective. Her facial expressions was so annoying cause her looks like she'll gonna cry at all times. Victor is just wasting his talent and time. Had to stop watching after 45 minutes of dull and horrible movie. This movie doesn't even deserve a 1!

Mystery 101: An Education in Murder (2020) Season 1, Episode 5

WOW!!!!!

[10/10 · 30 March 2020]

I'm speechless!!!

By far, Mystery 101 is the best of all HMM mystery series. The plots are well written. Each episode has its own circumstance that it gets harder to guess the perpetrator. Kudos to the writers. The series' casts are well picked. Jill and Kris once again showed their versatility as actor (despite of Jill being pregnant). Their chemistry is awesome. Loved the ending. The attraction between Amy and Travis finally showed up. Cannot wait for the next installment.

Hearts of Winter (2020 TV Movie)

This is a 10!!!

[10/10 · 27 January 2020]

The story was well written coupled with well chosen casts. Jill, per usual, has done it again. She is the most talented of all Hallmark actresses. The chemistry between her and Victor was awesome. Victor played his role extremely well. Once again Rukiya has proven that she deserves to be a lead in a movie. Lauren's acting cannot be ignored either. Overall, this movie warms your heart!!

A Beautiful Place to Die: A Martha's Vineyard Mystery (2020 TV Movie)

Predictable Ending

[3/10 · 18 January 2020]

The plot of the movie was so predictable. The chemistry between the leads was not there at all. This is a series that's hit or miss. It's not well written.
