I will give it another go but ONLY if the director/producer sorts out the soundtrack.
Wholly inappropriate (booming when the 2 women are in the car, so much so that you can barely hear them, and what was the ridiculous whine when the old woman comes in and drops the books?!?).
It as is if the director feels it needs to be there all the time, and it needs to be some clichéd mystery music irrespective of what is going on in the background, and he hasn't bothered to watch it through properly afterwards or he would have realised that not only does it distract, it drowns out the audio on several occasions, all the time having no meaning/relevance to the plot. Appalling first 15 minutes, I gave up.
Remove the soundtrack and start again.

I watched this movie tonight, and I was hooked during the entire two hours! I didn't even get up during the commercials because I was afraid I would miss something crucial to the plot. I didn't expect any of the things that happened. I was so happy to see Beth Broderick in a new movie. She is a brilliant and totally versatile actress, and did an amazing job playing Clare Beckman. The whole "Mystery Woman" series is awesome! When you're watching this movie it really seems like you're there. I don't really know how to sum this movie up without giving anything away----so you have to see it. I was never a big fan of Kellie Martin's but after seeing her in this mini-series, I will definitely start to watch more of her movies when they air.

When I first saw the previews for the Mystery Woman series I was convinced they were going to be good. I never thought they could be this good! Excellent casting and plots make this one of the best contemporary mysteries ever. Some may think the Chief is over the top but I grew up in a small town and Chief Conners is just what one would expect. It's his town and he is the only one who knows what is really going on. I especially like Clarence Williams portrayal as Philby,a character with a mysterious past yet as common as the next man on the street. The entire cast is excellent and Hallmark has outdone themselves. I hope this can continue for quite some time. I had just seen "Snapshot of a Murder" and it to was excellent.
i didn't like this movie.i found it moved at a glacial pace.i also didn't think the acting was all that great.i only liked 2 characters In the whole movie,which is sad,because there are a lot of characters.i liked the character of Philby,played by Clarence Williams III.i also liked Williams himself.i thought he was on of the 2 best actors in the movie.the other character i like was Cassie,played by Nina Siemaszko.I thought Siemaszko also was very good in her role.these 2 characters(Philby and Cassie) i found to be interesting. the rest of the characters were either boring or annoying. Kellie Martin plays the lead character,and to me,she was bland.to be honest,most of the movie was uninteresting,in my opinion.it just seems like nothing really happens.i was really just waiting for this movie to be over.this is not the worst movie i have seen("Dracula 3000" holds that distinction so far)but it was nothing special either."Mystery Woman:Mystery Weekend" gets 4/10 from me.
Kellie Martin is the new Nancy Drew! My wife and I love this show! We have TiVo'd it to make sure we do NOT miss it. Kellie is Brilliant. If you like a good Mystery then this is the one for you. I have been a fan of Kellie's for a long time and really enjoy her work. You are seeing a mature Kellie Martin, not a kid anymore. Her acting is top notch. Her character owns a bookstore and solves mysteries and pushes to find the truth. Whether it is breaking into a house to look for clues or just plain snooping she finds the answer. I love the way her character can get on others nerves when she starts pushing buttons to get her way. Anyway you go this is a HIT, I can't wait for the DVD's!
Did you know
- GoofsThe exterior of the jail/police station/morgue clearly has the words "CHURCH OF CHRIST SCIENTIST" on the facade. Part of it is covered up by the tree. In full it reads "Second Church of Christ, Scientist, which is a famous church in Los Angeles. They never removed this tell-tale sign in post-production.
