    Flawed but still good

    I don't understand all the hate for this movie. No it is not a masterpiece, but I found it to be perfectly watchable. I went into this without any expectations and was pleasantly surprised. It's not without it's flaws, it was probably made on a small budget by people who love movies (which I like - those are sometimes the best movies to watch) but it still had some really good gut-punch scenes in it, two that come to mind, without giving anything away, towards the end. That's where this film really gains it's momentum. It was suspenseful, the main characters were good.

    I don't know what else I can say.

    A poor script sinks any promise

    Treehouse starts well and the opening scene suggests this may be a small budget gem however any hope of this is quickly extinguished.

    The premise is decent, young adults and children are being kidnapped and it all seems linked to a strange tree house. Unfortunately a very poor script never even gets close to tapping the films potential. There are plenty of superfluous scenes that add little or nothing to the story.

    Treehouse changes direction at the drop of the hat as if the writer didn't quite know what he wanted the film to be, slasher, supernatural or gritty thriller. As a result we just get a jumbled mess of a film that is at times confusing and at times boring.

    Although it's a pretty poor film, it's not a total write off as there are at least a couple of decent scenes and some of the filming is quite good.

    I can't really recommend this film and am probably being a bit generous giving it a 5 but I have seen far worse films.

    Mixed feelings

    Not as bad as I expected it to be based on the comments people have been leaving. Main boy was more annoying to me than the main girl, but I did end up liking both of their characters, or at least the progression of their characters. Overall, I found that the movie had both good and bad. Pros: excellent soundtrack, some chilling moments (and those were really great), unique ending. Cons: not really scary except for those few chilling moments, ridiculous antagonists (although I don't actually care about that much in regard to this film specifically, because I see the villains more as a device to show how the main boy changes as a character, not as actual frightening entities), several inaccuracies/plot holes. So it's really up to you to weigh this out and decide if it's worth it or not. I believe it's entertaining for one watch, but beyond that, I'm not so sure.

    Not what it looks like

    I watched this movie before release and was anticipating some mystery and maybe even a bit of horror. There were no ratings or reviews so I watched it without knowing what to expect. All I got was a dragged out film that went nowhere... Judging by the poster you would think that this movie involved some seriously creepy and exciting plot.. But it was quite the opposite and frankly a waste of time. With a disappointing ending that didn't boost my thoughts of the movie. If you are looking for horror, certainly don't watch this movie. I suppose at most you could call it a Mystery. Overall highly disappointing and not a movie exciting or good enough to watch with a friend.

    Had no expectations

    I had no idea what this film was about but my daughter liked the title. I rarely write reviews but I always read them before and after a movie. I feel like this movie doesn't deserve all of the negative reviews. It was fun to watch and had I gone by the reviews, I would have missed 101 minutes of entertainment. It wasn't complicated and there were flaws but you can overlook them if you're not expecting an Oscar contender.

      I worked on the music and sound design for this film. One interesting sound was the squeaking of wet bike brakes recorded on the porch of the recording studio on the island of Lanzarote where I was working. Also featured is a multi tracked Erhu which is a Chinese two stringed violin type instrument.

      At the beginning the teacher tells them their assignment is to create a time line of events leading up to the Civil War beginning with the election of Abraham Lincoln in 1868. Wow. Lincoln was elected in 1860, the Civil War ended in 1865, and Lincoln was assassinated in 1865. Too sad.
