Summary

'The Shack' Movie Review

The Not Old Better Show, Movies for Adults

Over the course of the last week, we’ve really had some great interviews, of course we’ve talked to star Octavia Spencer,…author, William Paul Young, who wrote the best selling novel, The Shack, that the movie is based on, actor Sam Worthington, and of course star Tim McGraw. Please check out the full complement of shows on the new movie, The Shack, at The Not Old Better Show, and today, a complete review of the movie.

The movie has inspiring messages about everything from seeking help/counsel to processing grief in a healthy way to the power of forgiveness. That said, the ideas related to God's role in people's lives will particularly resonate with Christians/those open to faith-based questions. I recommend the movie to my audience and specifically to people who are looking for a basic explanation of who the Trinity is; those looking to start a conversation about Christianity with their friends; people who enjoyed the bestselling novel.

And, now, After months of both anticipation and controversy, The Shack (based on William P. Young's 2007 bestseller) is a wonderful film. There are those who’ll find fault with it, but again, for those interested in starting a conversation about God, this is a great place to start. And, here’s my review… Enjoy!
