Lost Treasure of Jesse James

Good entertainment. The kids acting are very believable. I think anyone no matter what their age would enjoy this film. Much better than other non-blockbusters I have seen.

I wasn't sure about this film when I heard about it as I didn't know how that story would differ from other adventure films like it but the trailer started to change my mind. Then I recently watched the film and all doubts were cast aside. The young actors in this film make for a great bunch of modern day Goonies which pay homage to them but all have completely different personalities which makes the group their own (complete with the little brother who tags along and makes for some belly laugh moments) all driven by an eccentric grandpa played brilliantly by Tommy Kramer. The bad guys, led by Sage Buchanan, who plays Montgomery, were some of the best bad guys I've seen in an Indie film. Most I've seen go completely over the top but these guys know how to balance over-the-top moments with the serious ones which, to me, makes for a great villain.

The plot itself provided an unexpected twist to the legend that I won't give away but is a nice twist in the Western mythos that doesn't always see the light. This is a definite win. I can safely say it's one of the better indie films I've seen.

I really enjoyed the movie, the acting was good, the story was nicely written. The actors and the kids did a wonderful job. Hats off to the writer & director for a nicely written Indy movie.

Watched with my nephew last weekend, its his new favorite movie. Its way better than I expected, I don't normally watch kids movies but this is real good. I highly recommend it to kids and adults of all ages.

Yeah it's got some stock classic story elements that scream of being inspired by 80s films and if you don't love action, mystery or coming-of-age kids movies well... The spin on Jesse James ,what ends up being the real treasure, a solid message on racism and classism, gravel road car chases, post Civil War horseback shootouts, bank robberies along with a novel twist on American lore left a little something for everyone in our family. I want to grab my old leather jacket, dusty hat, trusty whip and go right some wrong deep inside some old Missouri cave. Its a cool feeling.
