Watch Real Murders: An Aurora Teagarden Mystery For Free

To me, this movie is perfection.

Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay

A Masterpiece!

Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

The second film in the Aurora Teagarden film series, based on the first book. I liked it better than the previous one. That film was a little simpler, like everything happened in a small circle of setting. In this, there's no a major leap, but slightly extended, either it be characters or the story that takes us to the places. Lived up to the expectation, but as I always say, for the television standards and in particular keeping in mind the women audience. Because Hallmark might be exploring the crime related themes lately, but it always remains a women's favourite channel.It was just a second film, but as I observed in these two, I think showing a blurred very brief crime event at the opening is its trademark. In this tale, the killing follows a pattern. The pattern of old murders, mostly from Europe. A woman got murdered at the beginning and then as usual Aurora jumps in to investigate on her own, despite warnings from the cops not to involve. It seems this time her reporter friend is on her side. Not much helpful in solving the crime, but on the reverse side, it's Aurora, whose tip off impacts her from a possible danger.What major change I unexpected was the romance part. I don't know what happened to that church guy she was dating, but now it's with a mystery novelist, who's also a temp university professor called Robin Daniels. They together do all the latest case related work, since it could be helpful for his future novels. The regular monthly 'Real Murders Club' members meet up and so that's where the question begins that the killer could be one of the members who just recreating the group's case study. That leaves out strangers involving in this matter. But who is it and why he/she's doing it are the remaining narration to unfold.❝Is she always two steps ahead of everybody else?❞They had retained the same director for this film as well. I think he did well. I don't recognise Candance Cameron Bure suppose if I had seen her in any films before, but she was good so far in this film series. Looks she's one of the best television actresses. The supporting cast too was not bad. Shot in the nicest places, good dialogues and the fine scene transitions. The mystery was well maintained. I thought I had guessed, but like most of the time I was wrong. Not because I did not see it coming, but they hid that precious twisty part/character to bring on at the best section of the film, which's the finale.I would say the new boyfriend was one of the best things happened in this. If you watch it, you would know why. You know, in a crime- mystery, maintaining the plot is very important. At a same time revealing a few details on the other end must go on. This was a short film like nearly 80 minutes. An average runtime for any television film. Then the pace of the storytelling was good, followed by the list of possible suspects and possible future victims puzzling around. Simply to say, it was not a very intelligent crime solving film, but good enough to enjoy, especially the whole family together without restriction of age.Comparing the first film, it was less dramatic, but more tense, moving quickly from one scene to another. Not everything was perfectly done. There was a scene that looked intentional. It was a scene, finding an evident and then they succeeded. There's nothing wrong in it, but they simplified it, to move on to the next level of the investigation. From all, leaned too much on or you could say depended on the character Aurora. That's the title, that's what you might expect and so they gave it. Overall, a win-win kind of film for both the viewers and the makers. They did well for the second time, so I'm expecting the same for the third as well. Watch it if you had finished the first. Meanwhile, I'm getting ready for the next review in this film series.7/10

The second Aurora Teagarden mystery came a cropper when our perky librarian with a taste for murder mysteries is nearly done in herself by someone jealous of her expertise. I kid you not that is the motive for the murders here.As in the first Aurora Teagarden film, Candace Cameron Bure in the title role hosts a murder mystery discussion group after hours. She's even got a professional mystery writer in Robin Dunne staying with her and mother Mailu Henner. Then someone starts bumping off club members in the same manner of some famous cases. I think the whole idea is silly and the film veered almost toward satire. But believe me it's well clear.

There wasn't much on TV so I gave Aurora Teagarden a go and couldn't believe how annoying the main character was! If you enjoy childish, simplistic women who act like 10 year olds, then this is the show for you! Aurora is suppose to be 28 years old, but it seems as if they are trying to appeal to young teens because any self respecting adult would find Aurora annoying as hell! I don't see the point in outlining the flaws and faults in the actual story line, which are too many to list, when the main character is so unbearable! For a mystery show, this one is full of insultingly stupid scenarios and murders, which I assume are aimed at simple children! I must say that there were a couple of actors that I do like normally, which was the only reason I gave the show a go, but to my dismay, even they were annoying! I am disappointed any self respecting actor would agree to be in such a stupid show!

Candace Cameron Bure is back as Aurora Teagarden in another Hallmark movie adapted from Charlaine Harris' series of crime novels. I've never read any of the books but I did see the first Aurora Teagarden movie and liked it a lot. The plot to this one has members of Aurora's book club being targeted by a killer who is mimicking famous murders. Aurora investigates (mostly in purple jeans) with a mystery writer newly arrived in town and eager to help.As I said, I liked the last Aurora movie but I wound up liking this one even more. Candace is as lovely and engaging as ever. I was happy to see the cast of supporting players from the first movie has returned here, most notably the delightful Lexa Doig as Aurora's best friend. In this movie she doesn't get to play sidekick, though, as that role is taken by Robin Dunne. She does get plenty of enjoyable scenes, including one particularly amusing one with her parents. For his part as investigative sidekick and potential love interest, Robin Dunne is charming and fun. I was pleasantly surprised by this as the last time I saw him in a TV movie he was remarkably wooden and seemed bored by the whole thing. Here he steals the show and has a playful chemistry with Candace that I enjoyed a lot. He's a vast improvement over the forgettable minister love interest from the first movie. Again, I'm not familiar with the books but I hope if there are more of these movies made that his character is a part of them.On the negative side, the movie is darker in spots than it probably needed to be. It's hard to do a story where your lead character's friends are being murdered while still keeping things light and frothy. The movie doesn't always maintain that balance well, especially in the first half. There are also some issues with the sound quality at points, such as the grocery store scene where it appears dialogue may have been dubbed for whatever reason. Not a big thing but it is a tad distracting. Another nitpick would be the gruff police captain who is nothing more than an irritating cliché. He exists just to show up and yell about Aurora's meddling. Finally, the solution to the murders is a little too similar to the first movie.The complaints I have are minor, ultimately. For a made-for-TV movie, it's well done and very entertaining. It keeps your interest throughout with good characters and a decent murder mystery. If you liked the first one, I'm sure you will love this one. If you didn't like the first one, I doubt this will win you over. Candace fans will, of course, find lots to enjoy here.
