The Hallmark movie ‘Three Wisest Men’ is the third and final installment in the ‘Wise Men’ franchise, the other two being ‘Three Wise Men and a Baby’ and ‘Three Wise Men and a Boy,’ in that order. Directed by Terry Ingram, the film revolves around the Brenner brothers, Luke, Stephan, and Taylor, who are navigating their respective holiday season duties and expectations. Luke is anticipating the arrival of twin children, Stephan is preparing for his wedding, and Taylor is anticipating a new job that will take him out of state. In the midst of all the positive developments, they learn that their mother has put their childhood home up for sale. As is customary with Hallmark, the visuals shine bright in holiday lights while establishing a familial setting, wherein there is happiness, mirth, laughter, but also sadness.
