Murder on the Menu

So like the other reviews say, Holly Robinson is about the only reason to watch this. The writing is truly awful (even for a Hallmark movie) and some of the other actors are pretty bad, particularly the male lead who must be an athlete(?) Certainly not an actor by any stretch of the imagination.

I made it through two of these but I think that's it for me. I enjoyed catching up with Holly again but wish she'd find something a little more worth watching.

This Hallmark series is really good! The acting is great and I enjoy the storylines. I love Aunt Cassandra, she is so funny!

Being a Hallmark movie, this mystery comes with my usual cheese warning. This is especially evident when we see Ian's pre-teen daughter. On the other hand, there is something so sweet about the scenes she is in that it is hard to object. Just know it is coming when you sit down to watch, and you'll be fine.

One final warning, they spoil the first movie in the first few minutes of this one, so if you haven't seen it and care, you'll definitely want to watch it before you see this one.

Murder on the Menu is a fun second mystery with these characters. If you enjoyed the first film, you'll definitely enjoy revisiting them. James Welch Henderson Arkansas 4/17/2021.

This movie really disappointed . So slow and pretty boring.

Let me put it this way..............Monotone voices , expressionless faces , and stiff dialogue.

I like both lead characters , but unfortunately it just does'nt seem to work , no chemistry , all a bit stilted .

This is one of Hallmarks weaker offerings .

6/10 - not the most exciting HMM flick, but always good to see Holly Robinson Peete
