Dove Review

It’s Vinnie’s birthday. This year, Vinnie, along with his brother Tony, are taking all their friends into the woods to go camping and search for a treasure that their Uncle Davey hid years ago. They heard the story from their grandpa for years. Tony believes he has figured out all the clues, but little do the friends know that other people want that treasure, too.

The group has to wait for the moon to be in the right position. When they discover that two thugs are after them, they figure out a way to look for the treasure and keep the bumbling thugs away. Vinnie and his friends set up booby traps, and Tony and his gang map out the clues to where the treasure may be buried.

Adventure of the Treasure Boys is filled with humorous antics, adventure and, best of all, an exciting treasure hunt. We award this film the Dove-approved Seal for All Ages.
