This is How Movies Should Be Made
In other words,this film is a surreal ride.
Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies
It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...
Nice sequel to The Good Witch has beautiful and mysterious Cassie (Catherine Bell) dealing with a stranger out to steal her home. How she handles this causes some conflict with police chief boyfriend Jake (Chris Potter). But don't worry things will be fine between them by the end. More than fine, actually, but I don't want to give away spoilers. In addition to the house thief drama, Cassie also finds time to help the people in her life with their problems. Most notably she helps Grandpa George find love. That's what makes the character of Cassie so enjoyable. It's fun watching her set people on a certain path and seeing events unfold the way she wants. Her seemingly effortless way of resolving problems is my favorite part of the Good Witch movies. As with the first movie, it's a nicely-paced little charmer with a very likable cast.
Not bad film where a woman living in a place of history is about to lose it to someone who goes around the state producing false deeds to drive out people from their property. This gentleman then goes on to sell the property to developers.Catherine Bell is absolutely delightful as our Good Witch. Billie Burke, of The Wizard of Oz, take heart: There are still some good witches left after all these years.Catherine loves the widowed police chief and also thwarts 2 youngsters from doing something bad on Centennial night. They had tried to force the chief's son to go along with this dangerous prank.
Catherine Bell struck gold again in this adorable and very sweet sequel. Her character, Cassie is like no other we see on TV today. She tries to find the good in people and doesn't give up, yet sometimes the good doesn't always want to come out. Catherine and Chris Potter's chemistry is so much to watch. The kids were sweet and I thought did a better job acting in this one. But what I loved about the whole story was its messages it sends. This movie series has the potential of running very successfully and with Catherine Bell as their lead, Hallmark cant go wrong with the series. If you have not seen it yet, see it!
In the initial offering we learned that this mysterious, happy, calm lady is in town to fix up and live in the Grey House, which had fallen into disrepair. This movie is a continuation of that story, with a bit more focus on the "garden." But that is not the root of the mystery.Pretty Catherine Bell is back as Cassandra Nightingale. Her house is all fixed up and her garden is brimming with all kinds of different plants. She has made lots of friends in the small town, but has also decided to take in guests to help meet expenses. Run a sort of Bed and Breakfast service.Also back is Chris Potter as town Sheriff Jake Russell. In the first movie they started to develop a romantic interest in each other, and that continues in this movie.The significant event is the new stranger in town who takes a room at the Grey House then starts to get nosy. He goes into the public records to find out such things as how much taxes Cassandra pays, and we see him sneaking in the house to examine things that are locked up. Sheriff Russell is suspicious and doesn't trust him.While this one didn't hold my interest as well as the initial one did, mainly because the newness had gone, it is an entertaining movie, especially for Catherine Bell.SPOILERS: The stranger eventually gives legal papers to the Sheriff to have Cassandra evicted from Grey House because he claims to be the real descendant of the real owner, a sea captain that the Grey Lady had been tied to. But he was eventually exposed as a fraud and locked up. Cassandra and Jake get engaged.
