Perfect cast and a good story

The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.

The movie is made so realistic it has a lot of that WoW feeling at the right moments and never tooo over the top. the suspense is done so well and the emotion is felt. Very well put together with the music and all.

In the Tradition of the classic 80s films including the Goonies and Stand by Me, comes one certain film for kids and adults would definitely enjoy since it's not on DVD that they both remembered watching back in the nineties when they rented movies long before Netflix came around.the plot and story is very impressive, the cast is still good but some of the actors have been forgotten since who knows when, neat narration told by the lead character "David Shipper" and of course the music score is really nice.the Story is very that simple, we're the protagonist David notice his cousin Jonathan is coming over for the summer during the 100th Anniversary of the Emerald Cove's establishment and they decide to have a camp out at the beach along with his friend Freddy who can be a goof ball most of the time, until they found a piece of a paper which happens to be a map and even read about the lighthouse murder that began 30 years ago.around that time, Cap happens have lost his mind after he can't remembers his own name and start to think of the girl named "Sally Mae" and some bad guys who are more like the Fratellis and a little bit redneck (since this movie is filmed in California) who somehow in search of the treasure itself since Mr. Haley happens to be the lighthouse murderer and wore that uniform and pick-ax all along that look it came out of a murder mystery novel.on and all, this is a unique family film ever to come out in the late 80s and early 90s since I've seen this many times at my local Blockbuster Video store in the early 2000s before DVDs became popular, if you love some films ever to come in the eighties like the Goonies, Explorers, Stand by Me, the Monster Squad as well as the Indiana Jones films In which they are kinda rated PG and it's third film "Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade" is given a PG-13 rating then this is worth seeing when you come across it on YouTube since there are a few other movies that never did get a DVD Release to this day including the Prehysteria Trilogy, Trading Mom and even The Gate II: Trespassers.

Intense action scenes...enticing wardrobe...quixotic narrations... What more can you say about this delectable movie? Three teeny boppers find an abandoned boatyard in Emerald Cove.If you thought that the Goonies was the signature movie for the 90's, you haven't been on the tumultuous ride that Treasure takes you on. Treasure has you biting your nails and cracking your knuckles at the same time. It keeps you on the edge of your seat wondering what these crazy kids are going to do next.The film quality is impeccable. The sound quality is even more delicious. The adventure these kids take you on leaves you spun out at the end, wanting more. The villains are truly frightful, and the reality of using real overweight actors shows the heart of America, the overweight fast-food society of our generation.Treasure is the signature movie for the adventures children of the 90's. If you have any culture in film-making or even film watching, Treasure is truly a family hit you don't want to miss. Two thumbs very up.Sequel anyone?

This is one of those movies that I loved because despite its efforts to be a normal, children's adventure tale, it actually turns out to be a comic gem. Why? The acting, the plot, the dialogue, the characters. This is one of those movies that made me exclaim "It hurts!!!" because I was laughing so hard. (Also check out "Trucks" for this same effect. I am 21 and I love this movie (maybe I'm just immature and easily entertained). I would give a lot to have this movie released on dvd with director/cast commentary.

I remember watching this when I was about 10. My mom rented it for my brother and me, she said it was going to be like the Goonies. Well, it wasn't. My brother and I thought it was the worst movie we had ever seen, up until that point in time. I've seen it a few times on tv since then and my feelings are the same. to be avoided
