My quick rating - 6,0/10. Good to start out right away with a creepy Dave Bautista. The flick presents an intriguing premise with its mix of hostage drama and apocalyptic themes. The film follows a family on vacation, who are unexpectedly taken hostage by armed strangers. As the situation unfolds, the family is presented with a life-altering choice that could potentially avert the end of the world. The performances of the cast are generally solid, with Bautista doing a commendable job of carrying the emotional weight of the story. The tension and suspense are well-maintained throughout, keeping the audience engaged. However, the film does suffer from some pacing issues and plot holes that detract from its overall impact. Some of the character motivations are also unclear, and the resolution of the story feels a bit rushed. The supporting players that invade the cabin did fine in their respective parts but after the initial explanation, their stories seemed quickly forced in. This is one of the few times that M. Night Shyamalan pretty much stayed the course of what was presented and didn't get wrapped up in some forced twist that he occasionally has failed on working into the rest of the narrative. Overall, "Knock at the Cabin" is a decent thriller with an interesting concept and fairly solid performances. While it falls short in some areas, it still managed to keep my attention with its tense atmosphere and complete uncertainty until the very end.
Usual suspects are all streaming this one for theater-at-home pricing of $19.99.
