Movie Review: The Shunning

Recently as a family we had watched the trailer for The Shunning on other movies we rented and were reviewing. The entire family mentioned that it looked good and we should rent it, so we were delighted when the opportunity came along to review it for ourselves.

The Shunning is an inspiring movie, the storyline was great. Go check out the trailer below and the links provided below that as well.

We recommend this movie to all.
