Hallmark Mystery Movie Review

March Mystery Movie Review Madness – Sugar and Vice: A Hannah Swensen Mystery – Hallmark+

Cat

In this movie, Hannah and the Cookie Jar are catering dessert cookies and coffee for a costume party at the local hotel. It’s a fun mystery and it takes place partly on a stormy night which adds to the mystery. I did end up figuring it out before Hannah but it was still fun to watch Hannah and Co go through the evidence. Dolores was great in this one as always. I recommend this movie just make sure you have sugar cookie and coffee when watching! Based on the book Sugar Cookie Murder by Joanne Fluke.

Great American Family Movie Review

March Mystery Movie Review Madness – Ainsley McGregor: A Case For The Watchmaker – Great American Family

Cat

Ainsley McGregor is a criminology professor and small business owner that recently came home to Sweet River, Texas from Chicago after a mysterious incident occurred. Her small business, Bless Your Art, is an artisan shop that she sells products the townsfolk make. She has a best friend Shannon that owns a coffee shop and there are many other townsfolk that we meet along the way. There is also a book club that meets in Ainsley’s shop that started as the Widows Circle that turned into a mystery book club and is now a crime solving group. Ainsley also has a loveable dog George, a younger brother Ryan, the police chief, and her brothers best friend Jake, the Fire Chief, and Sara, the coroner that are involved with the crime solving.

This is the third movie in the series and I’m very glad it’s continuing. In this mystery movie, Ainsley and her “book club” at Bless Your Art are sad there are no mysteries to solve in Sweet River so they decide to look at a cold case. The cold case they randomly pick just happens to involve a member of the “book club”. The” “book club” member agrees to looking into the cold case. The cold case involves a watch which was an interesting twist on a mystery and introduces a quirky new character to the series. Ainsley also enlists the help of her friend Sara Sweet River’s coroner. George, Ainsley’s Sheepdog makes an appearance but not enough in my opinion. I highly recommend this movie and movie series.
