Mount Hideaway Mysteries: Heartache and Homecoming

Mount Hideaway Homecoming is a good series for young viewers.

Amy took a long time to get emotionally unstuck. She was fun to watch her get back to her sleuthing.

But I saw how Amy was introducing each character that was left behind with tramas.

Detective Rogers was good! A natural feel to his acting.

Tina Shanholtz (Neff) and Brett Monk were good in their steady roles.

Heartache and Homecomings was great for me. Mystery, love story and God finally got a part in a good movie.

I liked this thriller. Showed complications being worked thru. And the characters grew with the storyline. Good stuff.

Give me more!

I'll bet the books are fun. The movie? The script is bumpy. The film itself is 30 minutes too long.

The acting? Aside from Caleb Martin who plays the detective, these people can't act their way out of a paper bag. It is absolutely laughable that the town veterinarian, who rarely works, always open carries. Seriously?

I appreciate the faith angle. Christians have their point of view, and while not for everyone, it is nonetheless legitimate and positive.

I also appreciate the lack of profanity, sex & CGI. Too often today those elements carry a movie and acting is tossed to the side.

In this movie, the STORYLINE keeps it interesting. As I said, I'll bet the books are fun.

If you have time to kill, slough through it. You could do worse.

According to IMDB this movie had a 200 thousand dollar budget, a speck compared to the big guys. It also plays on a religious theme aimed at Christians. That may sound like a joke but odds are this will be a money maker because of its intended audience, who will look past the tiny budget, lack of effects and focus instead on the passable acting, decent storyline and emphasis on the spiritual. The chemistry between the two protagonists was adequate and the supporting cast, from friends to villains, got the job done. You won't see rhis movie in Cannes but as the entertainment portion of a Church supper the target audience will have received their money's worth.

My wife and I aren't very religious. I got this movie because it had the word "Mysteries" in the title and we watch a different mystery every night. If we can sit through it the intended audience will be delighted.

It makes it difficult to continue to watch when the acting is that bad, my husband gave up and just went to bed. . but I am about giving everything a chance.. the story was a little hokey.. but at least it was clean. I am by no means claiming to know anything about acting, however I acted in high school, and one thing I learned was to forget myself, relax and just be the character I was portraying. These actors were obviously reciting their lines.

However, it is great to see a Christian film, without cursing, violence and sexual content. Good, clean and inspirational is most appreciated. Thank you.

So honestly the first one wasn't that bad considering it was low budget with pretty much local actors, and not like your budget movie with typical Hollyweird actors and special effects etc ..the first movie at least a little more sense, better acting, and some funny lines. The second movie was definitely not as good acting, everyone was mad angry all the time, and freaking rude to police officers who were just doing they're job and honestly way better of it then the locals. So the second movie was decent but the second movie other then one or two characters is rose and maybe the cowboy were honestly kindav annoying. Just my two cents...
