Treasure Lies

source: Treasure Lies

Yes, the acting is quite bad. I was laughing my way through the first, but then something happened. Between Brett Varvel's sharp direction, and the sweet heart of the story, you begin to really enjoy it. And the last few twists in the story are really fun!

I saw a couple angry reviews, which I don't really understand. So I will preface this by saying that I am not related to, or friends with anyone connected to this film. This movie has a great underlying message. The movie is funny and it kept my attention. It is a family-friendly movie and it doesn't take the Lord's name in vain, so that's great! Essentially, the main character gets his hand on a winning lottery ticket, but unfortunately he lets money change his outlook on life.

I know that even the best movie ever will not satisfy everyone.... And I usually do not have time to rate and review movies but I have to say that this movie pleasantly surprised me. When my husband suggested the movie for a Friday Night Family Movie, I had very low expectations. But, the characters and the movie pulled me in the entire time...I will also admit I tend to like movies that others may consider cheesy but I watch them for the takeaway message(s) ! "Treasure Lies" was sobering, edifying and comforting as forgiveness, integrity, deliverance from avarice, and unconditional love themes provided lesson templates to reflect upon long after the movie ended. Great Work! I look forward to more material in the future!

Watched it with my family,fun ,clean,great movie Story was great,a big twist at the end,really enjoyed it. Loved the simplicity of the plot,it keeps you excited and keeps you on your toes Actors are still young,but they are good.

We rented "Treasure Lies" on Vimeo. I watched it with my wife and youngest son (who is 19) and it kept all of us very engaged. My wife and son kept essentially yelling at the screen trying to tell the characters what to do as they got themselves in and out of awkward situations. The twists and turns of the story were great, a few of them predictable and many of them totally unpredictable. It has a very good biblical/moral lesson that does not feel forced and fits in right with the theme of "For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also." It was also very well cast and acted too so the directing was also very good. I would highly recommend it.

It's very rare that I can't predict the end of a movie. I was pleasantly surprised with this one. I started watching it, telling myself I would give it a few minutes...1 hour and forty something minutes later I reached the end of this very good movie. It was a GREAT movie and God spoke to me through it. Watched it again the next night with my wife and kids, my 7 year old daughter absolutely loved it, but so did my wife and the other kids. I highly recommend this movie!!!

I got the whole point but the story was just off. It left you with more questions then before. Like, why did the go back in time once and not twice? Or what happened to his g/f's father that he should be absolved for? If they just wanted to tell a story, fine, but at least make it a believable one. This was a Christian movie yes, but also a family movie. So if you have kids or enjoy Christian movies then this will be great for you. For me this is a hard pass.

It wasn't as abysmal as another review that was written about it suggests. Casting was ok, acting was mediocre but the storyline was saturated with god squad BS. There is a twist at the end which completely negates the whole storyline. The other bad review was correct in assuming that the first two reviews were probably family members. I watched it until the end so it wasn't below 4 stars.

Once again two positive reviews that most likely comes from family or friends and have no real connection to the movie. Casting and story is just soo bad. Sad to see you can´t depend on these kind of reviews :(
