Making a sincere film about religious faith is a tricky thing to pull off. And this folksy dose of misguided manipulation demonstrates many of the common pitfalls. Sam Worthington stars as Mack, a husband and father whose Christian faith is understandably tested when his youngest daughter is abducted and murdered during a camping trip. He is summoned to the shack where his daughter died by “Poppa”, his wife’s overly familiar nickname for God. And there he meets Octavia Spencer, dispensing cracker-barrel wisdom and twinkly smiles at odds with the crude child-death device.
