The movie was superb. The underlying and overriding theme that "you can't put God (Papa) in a box" was demonstrated masterfully. Organized religion has poorly and badly misrepresented the real God. I hope the whole world takes a visit to the "shack". It will free you from the hang ups put upon us by religious minded people, who are void of God's love and grace. The message that God is good came forth. The fact that there is a true presence of Evil in our world and that we cannot blame it on God was made clear. I went to see it twice, Powerful.

Went with a friend the day before the anniversary of my son's death and three days before the anniversary of her son's death....although we consider ourselves both "religious" as regular churchgoers and "spiritual" in that we just don't "know it all", we found great solace in the forgiveness possible in all situations and the great love God has for everyone....and the affirmed belief that our boys are great and we'll all be together again....

Fiction or not, this movie is treading on dangerous ground as it portrays the holy trinity of God in a deceptive way throughout the story. It is Interwoven with universalism and New Age thinking. It is a false representation of the God of the Bible and His plan of salvation. This false god will appeal to countless people though because no-one is responsible for their sin; no-one will be judged; & everyone will end up in heaven to live happily ever after. It's as simple as that ... or is it?!

You need to go within to get the full sense of the movie and the Truth. Absolutely worth the watch! Love is all there is and Honey.... "I chose LOVE". :-)

Loved the messages and lessons about family and faith in this movie. Highly recommend and will probably see again myself. It is spiritual but stays nondenominational. We have all had horrible times in life when we auestion everything. The movie provides answers and solace in a beautiful setting.

I really love this movie!! I loved the dialogue and discussion of the very serious questions people have about why there continues to be unspeakable horror and violence in the world! I also love how God views all people and what happens when we as the created desire to sit in the judgement seat! It is really revealing to see that we make bad judgments all the time! Great Movie! I read the book about a year ago and loved it! While movies cannot match the book reading experience for depth of character and our imaginations, I thought the movie was a pretty good attempt to show us the book!

I did not care for this movie at all.I would not recommend it to any one. I did not read the book & do not intend to. I walked out before the movie was finished because the whole thing made no sense to me. It was ridiculous. I tried to accept what was happening but just could not.
