MatchMaker Mysteries: A Killer Engagement

6/10 - good start to a new HMM series and glad to have Danica McKellar finally join the HMM family

I watch this movie and enjoyed how the movie kept the audience guessing until the end who the killer was.i thought it was hard to figure out who the killer was right away. This movie kept the audience guessing. The character of Angie Dove was played perfectly by Danica Mckellar. The supporting cast did a good job too. Without saying who the killer is or spoiling the movie for anyone I can leave you with this if you watch this movie you won't be disappointed. I recommend this Hallmark mystery movie!

The acting was bad. Painful to watch at times.

Even Danica McKellar's cuteness could not mask her substandard acting here.

It's a shame. Was hoping I had found something to watch now that there is no longer any more new Aurora Teagarden or Garage Sale Mysteries.

Mystery 101 and even Crossword mysteries are both better than this movie. I might try another, but do not hold out much hope.

I have to admit I am not THAT familiar with Danica's body of work, knowing her primarily from a classic episode of How I Met Your Mother (The Pineapple Incident) and the episode she appeared on of The Big Bang Theory.

She was pretty good on these two sitcom roles, but not here.

Good story and great cast. Kept me guessing. Complaints from others about sappy start. She's a matchmaker, duh.

Our female protagonist in the Matchmaker Mysteries is Danica McKellar who has a knack for bringing fated to be mated people together. She's got reality television show for that purpose. She's really hit it big when she matches up CEO Robin Thomas with some younger woman. Danica's big ratings score will be their wedding.

But at the engagement party the bride to be is stabbed to death and collateral damage might be Danica's show. She has to save her reputation and the show. Danica moves in on Detective Victor Webster's investigation with the help of her former detective father Bruce Boxleitner who was also Webster's training officer back in the day.

I have to say I was fooled by the identity of the perpetrator. There is an ocean full of red herring suspects in this one so chances are you will be as well.
