The Freemason

I purchased this DVD mainly because I was curious, not about Freemasonry, but how it would be portrayed. To say I was disappointed puts it mildly.

This film is badly made, badly acted and the soundtrack (music) is terrible. The story line is poor and disjointed.

A good film about or involving Freemasonry is long overdue and I had hoped that this film, with all it's hype, might just be it, but I was wrong.

Personally I think they tried to capitalize on the word 'Freemasonry' and failed.

If I could get my money back I would.

Freemasonry in the movies is a rare and treasured thing. As a member of the fraternity, I was worried about this film divulging too much. This was not the case.

It is a perfect blend of fact and fiction to bring a great story to life. This movie has suspense, mystery intrigue and even some comedy. I watched the film with my wife and she liked it as well. This movie is definitely worth seeing.

Sean Astin plays a detective trying to solve a murder. Who did it? The Freemasons? I can't tell you, but what I can say is it will keep you guessing. Get ready for a kick @$$ ending!

The movie gives you a fair insight into Freemasonry. The story line is suspenseful and intriguing with twists that will keep you on your feet. Even more fun for Freemasons and their families or anyone with an interest in Freemasonry.

I love the role of the Grand Master, he was very Grand Mastery, giving credibility to the movie.

Sean Astin was fantastic, he did a great job. Alex McKenna did an excellent job at her role.

Bottom line, a great movie with an action packed ending.

Well Done!

I enjoyed this film. I sat down to watch it tonight after work. I like how the killer's identity wasn't easy to figure out at the beginning. However, I really like mystery and suspense films so I did figure it out about halfway through the movie and my inkling was right! I really did like this film. It's worth the watch. I learned more about Freemasons as well. And I really liked Sean Astin's performance. It was very nice seeing some fresh faces in film as well--I liked Randy and Alex's portrayal of their characters--great job! It's worth paying the money to either rent it or buy it. But I say, buy it! I hope to see more films from this crew in the near future.

What a great cast of Actors from Sean Astin (Leon Weed), Randy Wayne (Cryus Rothwell), and Alex Mckenna (Rana), to Richard Dutcher (Sheldon Lombard) making a return appearance, and Joseph James playing the voice of understanding (Jericho Beck) a 32nd Degree Freemason. You are taken along on a ride with Rana the wealth daughter and heiress, and Cryus the free-lance writer she has retained to help Leon Weed solve the mystery of her father's ritualistic murder. We learn more about them as they learn more about themselves and each other. Can they trust each other let alone anyone else? And what is this strange and cryptic group of men who are intertwined with this case? I truly enjoyed the story line. Directors turn a script into a movie; and Joseph James has done this artfully and with great skill. I enjoyed seeing his growth as a director since I first became a fan watching his last film Templar Nation. Directors work with actors; makeup artists; cinematographers; writers; and film, sound, and lighting technicians and in each film I like to see progress and a transformation over the one before. It is an ever growing process to achieve a higher level of understanding of their craft. In this film, you can see that this has happened I am looking forward to the next installment. IʘI
