Real Murders: An Aurora Teagarden Mystery 2015 123movies

Watch: Real Murders: An Aurora Teagarden Mystery 2015 123movies, Full Movie Online – The latest meeting of Lawrenceton librarian Aurora “Ro” Teagarden’s real murders discussion club – where fellow member and Ro’s best friend, newspaper reporter Sally Allison, had arranged for new Lawrenceton resident, Ro’s favorite current mystery novelist and temporary university professor, Robin Daniels, to speak – is canceled after one of the club members is found bludgeoned to death in his/her home. The case is being led by Homicide Detective Lynn Liggett-Smith, the husband of fellow detective, and Ro’s ex-boyfriend and ex-club member, Arthur Smith. There is no love lost between Lynn and Ro because of Ro’s amateur sleuthing in past murder cases in town. Because of a telephone call to the meeting venue earlier in the evening referring to the Julia Wallace murder, the initial thought by Ro based on this circumstantial evidence is that the murderer is one of the club members. Julia Wallace’s unsolved murder from 1934, the case which only the club members would have known was going to be discussed at the meeting, mimics this murder. Robin’s coincidental arrival onto the scene and his seeming inability or non-want to provide an alibi for the time of the murder also places him on the suspect list. As the detectives, Ro and the club members investigate, other club members and their loved ones are targeted by the murderer, each attempt mimicking a case previously discussed by the club. Ro systematically tries to discover who the next victim or victims will be both to prevent the attempts from succeeding and discover the identity of the murderer. She also has to decide whether to trust Robin, the two who are beginning to have feelings for each other..
Plot: Aurora finds a member of her crime buff group, the Real Murders Club, killed in a manner that eerily resembles the crime the club was about to discuss. As other brutal “copycat” killings follow, Aurora will have to uncover the person behind the terrifying game.

Reviews:

The man without an alibi.
“A smart woman learns to feign interest in what her man likes”-Aida

Sounds like horrible advice…or a recipe for disaster. Aurora didn’t make things work with the good father, but to Aida’s delight she might be interested in her new tenant. Meanwhile, another Real Murders Club member’s wife is murdered right in their home.

“See Real murders club is a hot date!”-Ro.

At The Real Murders Club Meeting the Talk given by John about Julia Wallace is interrupted by two events, the famous author Robin Daniels shows up to attend and the police show up to inform Gerald about his wife. Coincidentally, the murder was committed the same way the murder from the talk was…putting all of the Real Murders Club members under suspicion. Could one of them really be the murderer?

“I know you need to solve any crime in a fifty mile radius.”-Sally.

Cocoa and nut Crunch cereal on a spoonful of peanut butter? Ok, I would try it.

A book about the Hall Mills Case, got Aurora started in mysteries and In Cold Blood by Truman Capote she learns is the book that got her favorite mystery author, Robin Daniels, started in mysteries. While bonding with Robin, Aida shows up to pick up a package which may or may not be poisoned chocolates for her and Ro.

It definitely looks like someone is trying to set up someone from the Real Murders Club and that they all are in danger. Ro pairs up with the usual suspects (including Robin)to solve the crime(s).

This one was filled with lots of twists and turns and was so very worth watching.

Aurora Teagarden Mysteries remains solidly in my top three mystery series on Hallmark along with Mystery 101 and Hannah Swensen’s Murder She Baked.

This one proved that Aida is sharp and would be a great addition to the Real Murders Club.

Completely miscast and overly sanitized adaption of popular series
I am actually a fairly big fan of cozy murder mystery books series, so I am certainly not against the Hallmark Channel adapting them for TV. However, one would assume that they would make certain that the series in question is a good fit for the channel. The Flower Shop Mysteries (with Brooke Shields) and the Bake Shop Mysteries (with Alison Sweeney) are a fairly good fit. Hallmark’s modus operandi seems to be taking a fairly innocuous book series with a hopefully built in audience, hiring a familiar actress of a certain age who can play cute with some familiar veterans in the supporting cast, and usually pairing said actress opposite a blandly handsome borderline asexual love interest (the Flower Shop mysteries Brennan Elliot is actually an exception here in that he seems to have a pulse and sex appeal) in the quest to find out whodunnit.

By contrast, Charlaine Harris’s Aurora Teagarden mysteries are most definitely a questionable fit for Hallmark. Centering on a likable heroine with a morbid hobby of researching and sometimes getting embroiled in real life murders, the series is often ghoulish with its violence, motives and supporting characters. The first in the book series focuses on very gruesome murder perpetrated on members of a Real Murders research group. When watching the TV version, red flags that this series will be an adaptation failure crop up almost immediately. First, gruesome murders that happen to likable characters in the book are prevented in the film to give it that homey feel that Hallmark loves. Second, Aurora’s family background is changed around to give her a much more traditional family presentation to make her more cuddly to Hallmark viewers.

Last, but certainly not least, is the complete misfire in casting. Aurora’s mother is supposed to be a society doyenne realtor and force to be reckoned with. The books likens her to Lauren Bacall, the film series gives us a distracted Marilu Henner (probably wondering how to wring her agent’s neck and get away with it). Robin Dunne is cast as the love interest here, a visiting novelist who is either the killer or a target. Naturally, he shares absolutely no discernible chemistry with the leading lady and has apparently been directed to play everything in such a low wattage fashion so that viewers can be assured that nothing but the most chaste of flirtation is happening.

The worst decision is the miscasting of Candace Cameron Bure in the lead. I am completely puzzled as to how anyone in the sublimely talentless Cameron family keeps scoring acting gigs. The Aurora Teagarden of Harris’s novels is described as a short, pleasingly plump, bespectacled librarian-type with a lusty sex drive and a borderline unhealthy (but fun) morbid curiosity. There is not one characteristic of this character that comes through in Bure’s performance. Physically, she is completely wrong for the role as she bears absolutely no resemblance to Harris’s character. Indeed Bure’s performance sanitizes pretty much anything that would have given Aurora flavor as a character and replaces it with an over-caffeinated, hyper-cute nonsense performance that seems more like Bure’s audition reel for the Full House reboot than anything that demonstrates an actual performance or an attempt to prove she can…well, act at all.

Just when you think it cannot get worse, the climax where Aurora outsmarts the villain(s) arrives (which is completely different from the book by the way) and you realize just how utterly clueless and foolish this whole endeavor was from the start. Aurora seems less like a resourceful and brave character, then a childish moron with the IQ of a 12-year-old with ADHD and some highly questionable luck.

A complete disaster, even by Hallmark standards, and a total waste of time.
