this movie tried so hard to ensure there were no homosexual undertones that even when a boy was needing CPR, they didn't show the man who saved him giving mouth-to-mouth

8/10 i was bawling in the theater after watching this ngl🤣 very sad story but great film
Hunter lovedThe ShackMade it 30 minutes into the movie and started crying. Hit me like a ton of bricks and I never cry during movies. This was one of very few that had me in tears. Definitely had to look at myself during some parts of the movie. Some parts weighed on me heavily
Nanoeli01 lovedThe ShackI personally feel that film was a tough one to watch definitely a dramatic and Greenfield movie also has forgiveness this move. You is tough to watch. I would advise you if you may have triggers be warned overall beautiful movie.
- Kat is "meh" onThe Shack
Another iconic re film. Papa slays. Didn’t like film tho
nancy dislikedThe Shackvery slow paced and very religious
Mia Uribe lovedThe ShackGrew up catholic— strayed when I became older. This movie brings to light what I’ve always believed: there is a reason for everything. People say god will not give you more than you can handle and this movie made me see the world in new ways. Religious movie. EXTREMELY recommend.
- Lauren likedThe Shack
i actually really loved this it gave me a new look on my relationship with God it turned something that I wasn’t extremely familiar with into something that now gives me immense joy and peace. The Holy Spirit is a friend. And I don’t have to conform to religious texts
Rylee lovedThe ShackAbsolutely beautiful, I find it so hard to watch Christian movies because I feel like the plot and story that draws u in gets lost withen the Christianity aspect but this movie is wonderful, it shines light to so many questions and is genuinely such a wonderful watch
Autumn lovedThe ShackSuch an amazing movie especially if your baby Christian or someone who find yourself asking God “why” i absolutely loved this movie. They did a beautiful job of representing God,Jesus & the Holy Spirit❤️and it made me cry countless times because it makes you think

ELEthan LivingstonYou cry, I cry, ... we all cry. Makes you look at things in a different view point.

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!
NMNadia Alicia MontesDid not disappoint, very close to the original book story.
AWAdrain WogomanIt wasn't the best but it was okay. God isnt a woman so putting a man in there would be better

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.
Richard Roeper
Chicago Sun-Times
Mar 2, 2017
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.
