Movie Reviews:

❤️ I did watch Hearts Around the Table--Jenna's First love--It was pretty good. I like Mishael Morgan so I wanted to give this series of movies a try. I can't wait to see her movie next week. I love how the family always gets together for Sunday dinners and how close they all seem to be. I am looking forward to learning more about the others. You only get a glimpse of them all in Jenna's story. I think you see Shari more, so will be interested in Kiki and Josh too. Love seeing Mondy Cohn too. ~Sabrina

Storyline: Josh, the beloved math teacher and track coach, and Ella, the dedicated English and music teacher, find themselves on opposite sides of a school funding debate—until an unexpected partnership reveals they might have more in common than they ever imagined.

Movie Reviews:

❤️ Josh's Third Serving is safe, and quite the sweet movie! Looking forward to the last movie -Maria

❤️ … My husband and I really enjoyed the third installment of the “Hearts Around the Table” movie series. I normally don’t care for Stephanie, but she was so lovely in the movie. And I really liked Jake and her together. They were adorable. Plus, I loved Mindy’s character even more in this installment. Really looking forward to the final installment of this movie series. ~Joan

❤️ I have to say, I really enjoyed the Hearts around the table movies. I just started Kiki's movie, so I do not have a verdict on that, but I am sure I will love it.

These have been such heartwarming movies, how Angie opened her heart and home to all and so many more kids who didn't have loving homes, or didn't have parents that could take care of them. The 4 adult hearts, Josh, Shari, Jenna and Kiki are so wonderful and always there for each other, and for the new fosters Angie takes in. And Angie, just what a delight. So far, I have loved Josh and Ella's story the best. ~Sabrina

Hearts Around the Table: Kiki's Fourth Ingredient

Premiere Date: Saturday, April 12, 2025

Starring: Kathryn Davis, Torrance Coombs and Mindy Cohn

Storyline: Kiki, a spirited food truck chef, takes on catering her sister Jenna’s wedding. When setbacks arise, she finds unexpected help in Clay, the charming best man and a chef himself. As sparks fly, Kiki discovers that love—whether for family, food, or romance—means taking chances and following her heart.

Movie Reviews:

❤️ Kiki's Fourth Ingredient is safe, and therefore makes the whole collection safe! Well done, Hallmark. –Maria

❤️ We watched the last "Hearts Around the Table" movie last night. I have to be honest. It was just okay. I was hoping for more. We did like the resolution to Jenna's father story. And, the wedding was lovely. The movie was clean, which was good, but I don't know. We liked the first and the third movie's more. ~Joan

❤️ This may be the wrong blog to post this under, but I was finally able to finish the last hearts around the table movie. I wish that this could become a series. But I would also want to guarantee that they didn't sneak anything in it that would ruin it, if you know what I mean. These four movies were so good! ~Grace

Journey to You
(a DaySpring Movie)

Premiere Date: Saturday, April 19, 2025

Starring: Erin Cahill and Erik Valdez

Storyline: After missing out on a promotion, Monica reluctantly walks the Camino de Santiago. She's surprised when along the way she finds inner peace and a potential romance.

Movie Reviews:

🌷 Journey to You is another lovely Dayspring movie. -Maria

🌷 My husband and I watched "Journey to You" last night and we were not disappointed. “Journey to You” was an exceptional movie! Oh, there was so much to love! It started out a bit slow, but then my husband and I were hooked. Erin was just perfect in her role. I could tell how much this movie meant to her. She was radiant and reflective and just wonderful. I also thought she had good chemistry with the lead male actor. I honestly did not know anything about him, but they were a great match. Their relationship was sweet and sentimental and completely believable. I thought all of the relationships were authentic and not phony in any way. The scenery was breathtaking. And, the way they brought the storyline, full circle, was perfect! I won’t spoil it, for anyone who hasn’t watched the movie, but the ending was very moving and unexpected. I wish Hallmark would make more DaySpring movies. It makes my heart soar knowing they can still make movies that matter and have a faith-based message. ~Joan

🌷 Hi Joan, I too watched - or started to watch - Journey to You last night, but I turned it off about half-way through. While I agree that Erin was very good, the movie just seemed to plod along for me and I couldn't get into it. Maybe I should have stuck with it till the end? ~Mark 25

🌷 I almost turned off the movie as well because it did plod along and it took a while to pull me in. But, I am glad I stuck with it. It wasn't the most exciting movie but there really was a lot to like once it got going. Yes, not a lot happened but it was a quiet and reflective movie. If you do decide at some point, to finish the movie, I think you will like the end. :-) If you do watch it, please let me know here and I will tell you why the ending meant something to me. ~Joan

Signed, Sealed, Delivered: To the Moon and Back

Premiere Date: Saturday, April 26, 2025

Starring: Eric Mabius, Kristin Booth, Yan-Kay Crystal Lowe, Geoff Gustafson, and Gregory Harrison

Storyline: The POstables take a road trip to find the recipient of a lost letter and track down a musician who is the key to solving the case.

Movie Reviews:

📪 I saw “To the Moon and Back” on GOOD and all I gotta say is watch with a busload of tissues. Martha and the gang knock it out of the park once again. Can’t wait to watch it on Hallmark. ~Anonymous

📪 To the Moon and Back review: This is by far, 1 of the best movies in the series! And that ending? Definitely a TBC. This is why we need to fight for this series! Hallmark or Great American Family, this series needs a home that will respect it and let it continue on. -Maria

📪 Loved SSD "To the Moon and Back" it is honestly one of their best movies yet! I'll be sad if this is honestly the last we will see of this wonderful show. I loved how Rita was shown eating all the time! lol... I was crying by the end, but just bravo to Martha for writing such an amazing series. ~Sarah

📪 My wife and I watched Signed, Sealed, Delivered last night and were impressed by how well the movie was written and acted. If you’re tired of the same repetitive Hallmark story, then you should watch this. It’s not just about falling in love, there’s an actual story here. Excellent job all around. Robert

📪 I just watched To the Moon and Back on Hallmark + and I think it’s one of my favorites!!! ~Abigail

📪 Signed, Sealed, Delivered: To The Moon and Back – At first, the opening scene didn’t grab me with the unknown characters, but as soon as I saw our four POstables, I felt the warm feeling of being home again!

My favorite scenes were of Oliver and his father, Joe. Oh my, those were absolutely beautiful, touching, and heartfelt moments. I felt many similar and comfortably familiar storylines from previous “Signed, Sealed, Delivered” movies…

As soon as I saw the letters from Oliver’s biological father, I thought of all of the letters Oliver was given from his father, Joe, in “Signed, Sealed, Delivered: Truth Be Told.”

The RV brought to mind, as I’m sure it did for other SSD faithful watchers, memories of their road trip in “Signed, Sealed, Delivered: The Road Less Traveled.”

An incredibly significant moment happening in the middle of a song performance brought to mind “Signed, Sealed, Delivered: The Impossible Dream.”

At the movie's conclusion, they all head back to the DLO to reflect on everything that transpired and simply be together. That scene reminded me of the end of “Signed, Sealed, Delivered: For Christmas.”

As I continue to think on it, I’m sure other familiar moments will come to mind. What a joy it was to see our POstables again and catch up on their lives. It was also sweet to have Rhiannon Fish in a few scenes with her adorable baby, too.

The ending was truly beautiful. That last line, “I love all of us,” still echoes in my mind and leaves me feeling all warm and fuzzy inside.

As I’ve said from the very beginning of this series, “’Signed, Sealed, Delivered’ will leave a forever stamp on your heart!” ~Net

🔎 Aurora Teagarden Mysteries: Something New, A Lesson In Murder. I saw there were only reviews on here for the first 2 movies.

I love this site and it really doee help me decide which ones to watch or skip. Anonymous

My Quick Take:

First, I'm delighted that we will have a DaySpring movie this Spring; however, I'm not sure, yet, if the DaySpring movie will be Easter-themed or perhaps, it will be an inspirational film that takes place in the Spring??? Details to come.

Also, I'm not recognizing Erin Cahill's opposite in "Journey to You." Do any of you know him? (Update: an anonymous commenter provided the actor's name in comments below. He is Erik Valdez)

An interesting note for the "Hearts Around the Table" movie collection, four of the lead stars from these films, Ashley Newbrough, Kathryn Davis, Torrance Coombs, and Jake Epstein were all leads, as well, in the "Unwrapping Christmas" collection of films that streamed on Hallmark+ at Christmastime. (By the way, I streamed all four of those holiday movies, and I really enjoyed each one of them!)

Be sure to stay tuned for more details on all of the Spring 2025 movies.

I hope there's a little Sunshine☀️
in your day!

Blessings,
