Jazz Ramsey: A K-9 Mystery

First I have to comment on the terrible wardrobe in this mystery...it was truly atrocious, with the exception of the detective Nick, whose suits dapper enough for his station. Second I thought the German Shepard who played Zeus was a lovely dog, who I wish was used a lot more in this film especially sine it is called "a K-9 mystery". Third, I didn't really appreciate the negative backstory between the two leads. It didn't seem like a very believable story...but maybe that was just due to their lack of chemistry. I really like the actor Corey Sevier, who played Nick, and I have seen him put in some great performances, but I think he needed a better script. Finally, I thought there were far too many coincidences for this story to be believable...and the dental records-wow!

In general I am a fan of Hallmark mysteries, but this isn't one that I can recommend.

While giving a corpse smelling dog demonstration for the forensics club at the school she and the now principal both attended, she finds a year old body under the floorboards...it looks like it might be a strict teacher from the school, but who did it and why?

Could not find this movie on Hallmark. It showed up on YouTube.

Good enough to watch to the end, but not good enough to recommend.

The writing in the acting all seems very forced. I wanted to like it, but I couldn't warm up to it.

The former boyfriend is not even very likable. Of course, neither is the main character. I wish they would've written more lines for the dog, Zeus.

Continuity issue when she's at the house of the murdered woman. The detective tells her to stay there and don't knock on the door however she goes in and then they show her going for a run and getting whacked with a 2 x 6 in the head. A hit like that would've put her in the hospital and broken her skull.

No spoiler here, but it is a screwy ending.

I found this movie really, really boring. And I love dogs! No, scratch that. I LOVE dogs. But here dogs are used as props, the main character isn't even believable as a dog trainer.

The worst part is it's a really boring Hallmark mystery.

I love cozy mysteries, I don't mind crazy storylines about bakers and floristis who solve crimes. I don't mind stupid unrealistic plots as long as they make me feel good and entertain me.

To be honest I couldn't even finish this one, this film was... bland. I mean the plotholes were hilarious, but not in a good way.

The lead actress is pretty, but the script was way too weak.

The detective - also fine, but weak writing. Same about her friend. Actually they don't even seem to be friends! I mean they say they have such a long history between them, but we see no chemistry, nothing. Just random actresses saying their lines.

Unfortunately very poor writing and directing made this movie unwatchable. I'm being generous with 5 stars.

This is movie has an interesting plot that keeps you entertained and guessing the outcome. Jazz Ramsey, played by Rachel Skarsten, who trains crime detection dogs and they team up to solve mysteries with a little help from Nick-her ex-boyfriend and the town's lead detective, played by Corey Sevier. (and Corey is hot, hot, hot!) This episode involves accidently discovering remains of a body while demonstrating the talents of her crime detection dog to students at her old school. Jazz reflects on her school days and tries to free her friend, who is now the School Principal from being a suspect even though their is strong evidence that leads to her. Their is great chemistry between the two leads which despite their breakup you can sense they still have feelings for one another. The ending has a bit of a surprise. An entertaining movie, but I wish they had incorporated more of the dog in the story to make it true a K9 mystery.

First, the good. Rachel Skarsten did well in her role. She brought some much needed energy to the film. She wasn't great, but she was great by comparison.

Cory Sevier, on the other hand, was not great. And if you've seen him in other films then you know what I mean. Not sure what dirt he has on Hallmark execs to keep getting lead roles. But he's the most robotic lead in the Hallmark stable. And by extension that means there's never any romantic sparks in his films. This one is no different.

Th mystery itself was actually kind of interesting. But I agree with other reviewers that there was an especially large number of plot holes in this script. At times it felt like a minute couldn't go by without one. Cool twists though.

By the way, the song to close out the film was honestly a highlight. Great tune. It's called "I Think We Might Have Something" by Logan Richard.
