Ashlee Simpson, Doug Noble, and Morgan Bradley in The Recipe Files (2023)
This holiday mystery follows the newly single Isabel, who is looking for a fresh start in the small cookie-cutter town of Shady Oaks. As a baker, Isabel knows that the best recipes aren't made just from a list of ingredients, but from the heart. So, with a dash of ambition and a dollop of liquid courage, Isabel buys the recently vacated town bakery with sweet dreams of restoring the shop to its former glory.

Upon discovering a mysterious old book full of handwritten recipes of unknown origin, Isabel finds inspiration and re-ignites her passion for baking. As business is booming, Isabel starts to suspect this special recipe book holds clues to its former owner's death -- and finds there's more layers to this story than a devil's food cake! With the help of cautious and calculating Ben, the big city high-profile lawyer, and other newfound friends, Isabel sets out to crack the code of her first case -- but will she solve it in time for the holidays, or will her efforts be a recipe for disaster?

    Not a well thought out plot

    I was excited when the movie came out. Amurdermystery holiday movie. The plot was weak and made no sense. You find out that it's a possibility that your mom may have been murder and neither of the characters playing her children appeared bothered. From the shady realtor slash thrift store owner slash to the news paper owner was ridiculous. The cookie raffle with the QVC hosts and was soon cheesy. I could have done without the commentary interrupting the movie, was unnecessary. When the truth comes out the emotion the characters showed was lukewarm and not realistic. The scene jump from the arrest to the sheriff scene was disconnected to the storyline. Overall they needed more rewrites and takes. Maybe work harder on making the story more streamlined and cohesive.

    Really?

    What a hot mess this piece of garbage has proven to be. I guess some Z list actors are absolutely desperate for a paycheck. To add to the no talent long list of pretend actors, they also have that dolt of a QVC host, David whatever his last name is, playing a character. Apparently, he is not satisfied shilling items of extremely questionable quality, but now considers himself a thespian. With his pathetic lack of talent, his job should be handing out small samples of food products at either Sam's Club or Costco's. Why do you people insist on reviews be at least six hundred words? It doesn't take that many words to describe tripe.
