Knock At The Cabin review
A married couple, a young child, 4 strangers knocking at a cabin warning of an impending doomsday unless they make an unthinkable sacrifice..what would you do?? that that is the question asked by Writer and Director M. Night Shyamalan in his latest movie. Knock At The Cabin doesn't take any time in getting going as we're introduced to the real highlight of this movie in Dave Bautista's Leonard. At face value he seems to be a deep and caring man but something just feels off about him from the moment he appears on screen until the time the credits begin to roll. It's a commanding performance from the former wrestler. Once the 4 infiltrators are inside of the young couple's cabin the tension is elevated to higher and higher heights as the choice forced upon both men ticks away, nawing away at them.
Knock At The Cabin is best experienced with little knowledge of it beforehand as it is then when you will truly get everything you need from it. Unlike his movies of the past the narrative doesn't need a massive rug pull in the third act instead there is a really strong and quite touching ending which will leaving you thinking was it all really worth it?? was all of this truly necessary?? are humans bad?? Knock At The Cabin is great, it's really great. M. Night Shyamalan's best work in years and proves that he can still deliver great cinema.
