CrimeTime: Freefall

The actors seemed to have great rapport, and it was clear that they enjoyed their roles and on-screen interactions. Voices were clear and strong and the pace of the movie was just right. It was a very enjoyable movie with characters you could find empathy with.

The plot was just complex enough to be easy to follow, and the few red herrings in the mix were fun to follow through. I though each of the actors made the most of their character and put in good performances that made a viewer feel the where honest and invested in their roles.

I hope there are more movies in this series to flesh out the developing characters and relationships.

This is well above the average Hallmark production.

99% of new Hallmark mysteries are astonishingly bad (and the bar isn't really high). Not this one!

Loved both leads, they are fun together, fun on their on. I was afraid Lyndie Greenwood's character would be fake and irritating, but actually she was cute. As in quirky cute.

Loved other characters. The mother, the realtor, the cop boss, etc. Family members in these films are often... just there, just wasting screentime, but not in CrimeTime.

Even the kids were not annoying (and I expected them to be annoying).

So I hope it won't be a one time thing like many others.

This is seriously the first good Hallmark mystery since Curious Caterer.

I have no idea why this currently has a pretty low rating, because I absolutely loved this movie. I don't typically enjoy the vast majority of Hallmark's mystery movies. They tend to take themselves too seriously, leaving my eyes rolled back, and my face naturally cringing. Crimetime was different, though, not one eye roll or cringe to be found, from me!

If you are like me, and get annoyed by the Hallmark mysteries that have a civilian jump into play detective, without any cause or being asked, give this movie a try! While our leading lady does play an actress, she didn't join the investigation on her own accord. She even pushes back, not wanting to join it, at first. Those small script changes made this movie 10x more enjoyable for me to watch.

*I just checked, and the Crimetime writer also wrote, Haunted Harmony: Murder in G Major, which was one of my favorite movies last year; so I'm not surprised I love Crimetime so much! 👏👏👏

The cast was adorable, and everyone portrayed their characters, beautifully. Great chemistry throughout!

Crimetime is perfect for those who, like me, enjoy the more quirky mysteries, such as Haunted Harmony and Dancing Detective. 10/10 - no notes!

The characters were truly interesting and love the quirks of lead "Hadley Warner". Playing a sleuth for 10 years made the character part of her. Loved her kids and mother.

The detective likes to be in control so he wouldn't admit he knew her show, but he's going to be fun.

This is the kind of show that Hallmark has been sadly lacking in recent years. They're trying different characters and partnerships in different places, but are having trouble replicating the Garage Sale and Gourmet Detective series, or Murder 101. This is a serious contender, like the Tamara Mowry series in Ireland. I can't take 6 months of Christmas romances, so I cancelled. Mysteries this good would make me pay monthly again.

I didn't expect so many laughs in this one.

Hadley as the Hollywood actress moving to small town and having a hard time adjusting at first drew the most fun on this one for me.

All of the characters were really different and quirky with weird lovable ways.

I also loved her trying to find out just not the mystery but detectives secret. Don't worry I won't spoil it.

The back and forth between her and the cop had me smiling all the way up until their last lines. They're hopefully going to end up together of course but when? Knowing hallmark and murder she baked we may have some waiting to do.

But not too long okay?
