Mysterylover-60198's rating
True Justice: Family Ties was a little different for Hallmark. It's still a murder mystery but with a larger cast working to prove that the brother of the lead actress is innocent. This movie takes you into the criminal justice system. The cast is made up of newcomers to Hallmark along with two of my favorite regulars - Nikki DeLoach and Benjamin Ayres. DeLoach and her writing partner, Megan McNulty, did a good job with a script that provide twists and turns to keep you guessing. I liked the fact that the writers didn't throw in a gay couple that didn't fit in with the story as Hallmark has had a tendency to do. Hopefully, True Justice will become a regular series.
I enjoyed this latest movie in the Curious Caterer Mysteries series. Nikki Deloach is one of my favorite actresses on Hallmark. Deloach is good in both the Hallmark romantic movies and now the mysteries. She and Andrew Walker are good together. The writing was better than the last movie in this series. Several of the reviewers were critical that the movies had some differences from the book. That always happens when a book is made into a movie. I would suggest that viewers just sit back and enjoy the movie. Hopefully, Hallmark will make more of this series along with my other favorites - Murder 101, Murder She Baked, and The Chronicle Mysteries.
I liked the fact that is movie was a little different than the usual Hallmark mysteries. It was somewhat convoluted at the beginning. The writers should have slowed down the pace and introduced the characters more slowly. The actual mystery was good with several suspects for the characters to consider - almost too many to keep track of. There wasn't much time spent on the romantic backstory of the two main characters. The acting was good, not great, other than the always watchable Teryl Rothery. I wish Hallmark would have her in more movies. If this becomes a series, I would watch future episodes, but hopefully, Hallmark will bring back my favorites: Mystery 101, Morning Show Mysteries, Hannah Swensen, and Martha's Vineyard Mysteries.
