I struggled a bit for the first half of this movie because I didn't like or connect with any of the characters except for the main character Billy. I have been put in the exact position that he was put in about having to choose between my wife and total strangers before so I can identify with that.
With that said, the second half of the movie was better than the first. In my opinion for a movie like this to be entertaining it needs to have quirky and likable characters and it partly succeeded in doing this. Most of the characters started out as unlikable but we got to see a better part of each one of them as the story continued.
The concept for the story was pretty solid. Some of the dialog seemed a bit unrealistic but in a comedy like this it works..

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.
