Reviews
ScoobyMint Disappointment for a huge fan!
Konterr Brilliant and touching
Stephan Hammond It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
Sanjeev Waters A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
Jack Vasen I didn't like Cameron Mathison. I thought he overacted. I didn't buy why Jesse would be attracted to Mike. However, Sarah Lancaster held up her end doing a credible job acting. Kaaren de Zilva was the worst of all. The attempt to contrast Ramos with Mike was completely lame and overplayed.All aspects of the romance were weak. Building up Mike as Supernanny was overplayed.But the worst part was the crime story. At least some of the bad guys were pretty obvious from early on. Mike forgot a key clue. The Bannerman's didn't reset the alarm code after Cookie left, especially since they suspected her. In fact with all the robberies, the first thing most homeowners would do would be reset their alarm codes.The climax was a joke. Real police don't work the way it went down, especially caravanning from one suspect to another. No cop supposed to be watching Cookie would have let her escape. A building like the warehouse can't be locked so people can't get out. A kidnapper doesn't hold his hostage in a plainly marked RV in the middle of a centrally located parking lot with the mayoral candidate sitting there also. A suspect can't get hold of a gun that easily. The sad thing is that I watched this movie all the way through before realizing how bad it was.
bkoganbing I confess I had to look twice when I saw that Detective Mike Logan was going undercover as a nanny. I couldn't imagine Chris Noth from the Law And Order franchise doing this after he picked up his pension from the NYPD. However it was Canadian actor Cameron Matthison being an undercover nanny in this Hallmark Mystery film.In the upscale neighborhood of Poplar Point there has been a rash of burglaries. Since this is a rich community Matthison gets the assignment to track down and apprehend those responsible and there are several though only one does the actual burglaries. Matthison decides an unusual approach. He gets hired through an employment agency as an nanny and after a fashion proves adept at the job. He also gets a little romance going with Sarah Lancaster.Typical Hallmark product, but I have to say the motive for all the burglaries is an unusual and original one for these films.Worth seeing for that alone.
lisamba I liked this movie. It was cute and funny at times and had a little excitement at the end. But the strange thing was they had 2 different dogs, a really old dog at the beginning and a much younger dog after the first scene of the dog. The movie kept you guessing who was the guilty person all the way though the movie. Also I didn't hear any loud sounds over the music.
Michael Thompson A reviewer in the USA complains in his/her review about loud music throughout this film. I watched this film and enjoyed it "throughout". There was no "loud" music.Here we have a detective going under cover as a nanny to solve burglaries in a local community.He gets to know the local ladies, as they talk, and I noticed not a bit of litter could be seen on the streets. He gets sacked from the job due to a misunderstanding between his employer and his police chief. But is soon back again.This was a light hearted movie, frothy and fun, with an ending that rounds things off nicely.All I can say is another 10 stars from Hallmark.
