Atom User Reviews for The Shack
Very inspirational movie. It definitely makes you check your faith in God.
This movie can change people's outlook on their lives. Best movie I've seen in a very long time!
WALK OF FAITH AND HEALING
If you've ever wondered about God, see this movie!
You cry, I cry, ... we all cry. Makes you look at things in a different view point.
Did not disappoint, very close to the original book story.
All truth presented so beautifully! Bottom line is we all need to keep our focus on God at all times to experience His love for us and His Peace!
Beautiful movie!
It wasn't the best but it was okay. God isnt a woman so putting a man in there would be better
I felt like I was turning the pages of the book all over again!!!
The previews were misleading to anyone who didn't read the book, but it was a great movie. I'm glad I saw it!
Great message

It is my new all time favorite movie.
This is a must see movie.. such a blessing
I loved it. It has touched me with the loss of my mother and my trust and relationship with GOD. I always needed to know if she is ok. I trust in GOD to know she is!
With all the Christians debating this movie, I think if you as a non-Christian or new Christian, please view with a mature or seasoned Christian. Go with a church group so you can understand why this movies perspective applies to people that are already following Christ.
awesome perspective on life!
As Powerful as the book. Very carefully brought to the screen. I got teary a few times!
Amazing!
thanks be to the highest
Wow, this movie is amazing
loved it
One of the best portrayals of Christ's love for us, in our understanding. Simply wonderful!
What a powerful movie.
after getting past the weirdness, the meaning was good, no great. I believe it all hit me on the way to my car.
wonderful
Thank you God
Movie was missing something.
I don't think you can watch this movie without crying. Such a beautiful movie. a great way to understand gods love!
Good movie.
Actors delivered. the mivie was true to the book. Amazing!
Great film that gives new insights. Would highly recommend it.
I absolutely loved this movie!
bring tissue lots of tissue.
Not a movie about religion. But a movie about having a relationship with God! Religion is work. Speaking to God is not!
Seeing is believing. Sometimes you have to remove yourself to see the bigger picture.
You have to see this movoe
great story, less than mediocre acting by the main guy. Too bad, considering 90% of the movie is carried by the main character.
I will be more forgiven and not the judge....
I cried 4 times during the movie. Bring your tissues and heart to this film. Absolutely amazing film
Awesome film! Cast was great. As with most books made into movies the book was better, but still a beautiful picture!
Great movie
I took my 12-year-old and we had a wonderful time we were both in tears it was beautiful and test a lot of things in the Bible I had a wonderful time
Loved It !!!
as close to the book as you can get!
Watching it I heard God remind of the promises He has for me
I read the book years ago but this movie is one I want to buy and watch many times and give as a gift to others!
The only reason I made it four stars instead of 5 was because Papa was a woman. I am a woman, but that was disturbing. The
I came watching the movie with so much pain in my heart and watched this and it brought healing to my broken heart. I related a lot with Mack.. and I needed this movie. God is good. And He will never leave. I left the movie with a light heart and knew that this movie has touched some of the deepest pain. I may have not all the answers... but it was worth it. to remember who God is
Metacritic
Avatar’s Worthington is adept at playing a tortured soul, but his American accent and dramatic range are both wanting in this movie.
The Shack is a well-acted and sometimes moving but far too often slow-paced and unconvincing spiritual journey.
As directed by Stuart Hazeldine, even its jolts of surrealism feel curiously stilted; what it needed was a director whose reverence would be tempered by a healthy sense of the ludicrous, an ability to tap into and draw out the material’s stranger undercurrents.
