First, it's lovely to see Ginna Claire-Mason in another movie! I think she is a wonderful actress, so I'm delighted to see Hallmark continue to work with her. And yes, I've also been seeing the news that she is filming a Christmas time-travel movie with Wes Brown titled Newport Christmas.
Speaking of Wes Brown, it's nice to see the Love on the Danube collection of films come to the Hallmark Channel, especially for those who do not have Hallmark+. I have seen the first two and can you that they are, indeed, family-friendly, lighthearted stories. Of the two I saw, I enjoyed Love On The Danube: Royal Getaway best.
I have also seen the mystery The Jane Mysteries: Murder At Moseby, and I must say it was my least favorite movie of the series. It was rather slow for me personally and just didn't interest me much, but I stayed with the story until the end. As I recall, the Edgar Allan Poe Festival in the movie is rather creepy. It's definitely best for preteens and up.
Have you seen any of these Hallmark movies? If so, please feel free to share your thoughts on any of these movies in comments below.
Was Hats Off to Love previously titled A Derby Romance?
ReplyDeleteYes Hats Off To Love was previously titled Derby Romance during production
Deleteyes
DeleteGinna Claire-Mason is becoming quite the Hallmark actress.
ReplyDeleteI'm not happy at all with this cop-out by Hallmark - 4 of the 6 "new" movies previously aired on Hallmark+.
There were suggestions that Hallmark might be giving up on the + channel but that would not appear to be the case
I'm being kind when I say Murder At Moseby is dull and uninspiring.
The Love On The Danube trio are pleasant enough but are all mostly slow-paced - more of what I would describe as movies to watch in the afternoon.
Much as I like Dan Jeannotte for me the best of the three was Kissing Stars - there was a slight spark to it.
The one shining light here is the return of Paul Greene I thought my eyes were deceiving me at first - I've liked him since first seeing him in A Christmas Detour - Florence
I think the Hat movie was filmed in my home location of Tampa FL. I will watch it to look for locations :) I did want to watch the Danube movies. It feels like we get less really new stuff with the Hallmark plus stuff moving to HM. I think they even have a home improvement show now on plus. I do love my HGTV.

so nice to see the Love on the Danube movies finally airing, I highly recommend them. -Maria
ReplyDeleteHmmm? I’ve seen the Danube movies; they’re fairly fun. Great to see Paul Greene again, don’t recognize his opposite.
ReplyDeleteI think it could be Gail O'Grady. Maria, since you've seen the Danube movies are they family safe????? Happy Birthday Net Have a great Day with many blessings to you and your family from above !!!
DeleteI wouldn't recommend them if they weren't safe. :))) -Maria
DeleteHappy Birthday, Net! I hope you have a wonderful day, however you celebrate it, filled with lots of fun and laughter...and cake too!
ReplyDeleteI agree Net, the Moseby mystery was so slow! But I felt that way about all the Jane Mysteries….they just didn’t wow me at all, no chemistry between her and the detective, and her Aunt Sadie is just off to me, always done up in a 3 piece outfit with makeup at 11pm 😂 A lot of these new movies for May look great!

So Gina Claire Mason is the only new made for Hallamrk movie. The movie with Paul Greene is an acquire movie although it is nice to see Holly Robinson Peete in a movie.. And than of course 4 movies from Hallmark+..
ReplyDeleteAlthough it screams acquisition after filming for the Paul movie, people were saying all along when it began filming in Jan that it was going to be for Hallmark, so despite a cast that seems like low budget fare & filmed in New Mexico, which is also a typical indicator of make-to-sell, apparently HM had approved it before it was made, although it was likely like a lot of GAF fare...if you make it, & put this actor in it, we'll buy it. Either way, although I'd prefer a co-star that is familiar, it's nice to see Paul Greene back for a movie & looks like a sweet spring type of movie.
DeleteI will look to watch the Danube movies. Some look interesting. The movie with Jodie Sweetin--a NO for me.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Net!
ReplyDeleteLoving the movies. I don't have +, so it will be nice to see them.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday!
ReplyDeleteI might be the only one, but I really like The Jane Mysteries. Jodie is not my favorite actress, but I enjoy her in these. I also think she has good chemistry with Stephen. I like her singing, too. The lyrics are cute and get stuck in my head. All 4 movies are clean. Murder at Moseby was a little creepy with the Poe Fest, but not too bad. There were a couple holes in the Too Much to Lose mystery but overall I hope there are more Jane Mysteries to come.
