The Shack (original title: The Shack) is an American film by

improvement and your sense of justice. By watching this

yourself be carried away by love.

The Shack (2017 Movie) Official Trailer – ‘Believe’

Mackenzie Mack is a man traumatized by the mistreatment suffered by his father in childhood.
He now has raised a healthy Christian family, he has a life. One day he decides to take his
children to a cabin on a lake. Everything is going relatively well until the youngest of the family,
Missy, is kidnapped and murdered by a missing serial killer. Mackenzie's life becomes a spiral
of pain and guilt. One day he will receive a whole mysterious letter in his mailbox signed
"God", this letter invites Mack to spend a weekend in the same cabin where he and Missy last
vacationed. Guided by his curiosity, he arrives in the woods of Oregon, finding a deserted cabin
covered in winter snow. There he meets those who claim to be the representation of a name
that you surely know, “Christ”, also called “Jehovah”; "superconsciousness"; God; To; etc. The
movie wastes no time trying to give the character we've known since the dawn of mankind a
name. Mack is hosted for the weekend at his cabin. There he finds great hospitality
accompanied by great teachings. "God" teaches him to love rather than hate, not to judge, to
accept the challenges he encounters, to let life follow its cycle, and that all truths are nothing
more than half-truths.

Tens of billions of people have tried to explain higher consciousness at some time,
philosophers, scientists, guides, religions, etc. It is now Stuart Hazeldine's turn. This director
explained very well with his film the need to raise our consciousness. To return to being the
person we have forgotten we are. To not be afraid of what happened to us or will happen to
us. Worrying about the moment now, just living in it, with no more limitations than we want to
have. He invites us to love the one next door without judging. Neither the other nor ourselves.
Because the judgments at the end of the day are only ideas that without any truth you have
wanted to believe. To discover that beauty that is covered by your pain. That no matter how
hard you try to believe that you know everything, you don't know even 1% of anything.
Because there are 7 billion truths.

The true journey of discovery is not about looking for new landscapes, but about having
new eyes.

Opinions

"Its potential to inspire a film of controversial spirituality should not be underestimated, but its
inability to summon the vertigo of the ineffable through images and words is manifest"
Jordi Costa: El País newspaper

"It's nothing more than two endless hours of self-help book slogans and 'new age' mumbo
jumbo about the need to have faith. (…) Rating: ★ (out of 5)"

Nando Salva: El Periódico newspaper

"Tedious and biased: manna for parochial film forums. (...) Rating: ★½ (out of 5)"

Javier Cortijo: Cinemania

"Admitting what the film states (that God is one and triune), it must be recognized that its
mechanism works, its development does not incur in bigotry and even offers certain edges of
delirium"

Antonio Trashorras: Stills

"Pathetic proselytizing. (...) a full-fledged attack on the viewer's intelligence."

Alberto Luchini: El Mundo newspaper

"The questions are deep, and so is the boredom"

Sheri Linden: The Hollywood Reporter

"It reduces faith to a kind of spiritual comfort food"
