Treasure Lies

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!

We dumped all of our streaming services because of the increasing amount of crap and agendas being pushed out there. Our alternatives are few and admittedly PureFlix is kind of a weak alternative. Most of the movies are cheesy and low budget. This one is slightly low budget and the acting isn't top quality - and so I wasn't expecting much. However, the plot has multiple levels and even when I thought it was going a direction that would have left a TON of plot holes, it rescued itself. There are several situations that might pull on your heartstrings if you're not too calloused.

Admittedly this is for a Christian audience and so a lot of people might be annoyed by how clean it is and that there is a Biblical message - I for one find it to be a breath of fresh air when movies these days are plenty preachy with all kinds of other ideals.

I do wish the resolve of the plot went a little different but there is a twist in there I didn't see coming and that is worth a ton when one of my biggest complaints about PureFlix-type movies is there ridiculous predictability.

Funny, thought provoking, thoroughly entertaining. The actors were engaging. Can't wait to get family together and watch it again.

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!
