MOVIE TITLE: The Jane Mysteries: Inheritance Lost
This romantic mystery is now available on the Hallmark Movies & Mystery channel
RATING: TV-PG
LENGTH: 1 hour and 30 minutes
MOVIE REVIEW MOM GRADE: B-
IN A NUTSHELL:
The story is about Jane DaSilva, a singer who inherits a foundation that runs a detective agency. While investigating her first case, she discovers a company that exploited her client’s mother, and she realizes that delving into the past can be dangerous.
The film was directed by Marco Deufemia, and written by Neale Kimmel.
THINGS I LIKED:
- The mystery movie stars Jodie Sweetin in the lead role. She does a great job and is easy to like. That’s really her singing in the movie!
- Other cast members include Stephen Huszar, Paris Jefferson, Rob Stewart, Martin Roach, Brian Cook, Cindy Hampton, Tonjha Richardson, and Angelo Grey.
- It was fun to see all of the wigs and costumes that Jodie Sweetin got to wear when she was trying to disguise herself. It was a cute idea to have her character’s aunt supply them since she was supposed to be a famous actress in years past.
- I love that Hallmark has been pumping out mysteries that offer the thinking woman something more than just a cheesy-easy romance.
- It’s fun to follow the clues and try to figure out what happened.
- If you enjoy this movie and Jodie Sweetin’s character, you’ll be happy to know that sequels may be coming soon. There are more mysteries to solve and only a budding romance by the end of this first installment, leaving much territory left to be explored and expanded upon.
THINGS I DIDN’T LIKE:
- There are some really big goofs in the script that would never happen in real life.
- Some of the dialogue is super cheesy.
TIPS FOR PARENTS:
- Portrayal of murders (we see 2 dead bodies)
- Talk of network marketing (multi-level marketing scams)
- No profanity
THEMES:
- Healing crystals
- Caring for and helping others
- Using your strengths to help others
- Confidence
- Love and loss
- Family
- Greed
FUNNY LINES:
- “Be careful. Remember, you’re not Sherlock Holmes.” – Detective John Cameron (Stephen Huszar)
INTERESTING LINES:
- “Care about the people involved.” – Detective John Cameron (Stephen Huszar)
- “Lean into who you are, Jane. Lean into your natural talents.” – Aunt Sadie (Paris Jefferson)
