.TheWolfman says KnockAtTheCabin embraces MNightShyamalan's 'narrative and directorial strengths' for a 'thrilling journey into the minds of fanatics.' Full review here:
Few contemporary filmmakers are as unpredictable as M. Night Shyamalan, not solely in the sense that his narratives explore uncharted territory, but the actual success of those adventures can never be anticipated. Over the last 25 years, he's wowed audiences with projects like The Sixth Sense and Signs, yet also delivered definitive disappointments with projects like The Happening and The Last Airbender.
Throughout his career, Shyamalan's proven that his skills as a director far outshine his skills as a writer. While both his hits and misses are often original stories that he both writes and directs, it's the features in which he shows more than he tells that work; once he starts to tip his narrative hand, he attempts to justify the outlandish events, exchanges, and mythology, forcing the audiences to take a look at the absurdity. With Knock on the Cabin being based on the Paul G.
Baked into the story, as well as the novel, is the deadline that the family faces, which also comes with members of this intruding group being forced to make sacrifices of their own at regular intervals if the family doesn't make the decision of who to sacrifice. This gives the entire story a ticking-clock structure, so as soon as the tension of one situation dissipates, it immediately starts building and igniting investment from the viewer.
Especially over the last few years, the Internet has offered the opportunity for anyone with any fantastical and baseless ideas to connect with one another and justify these thoughts merely by finding any other person who shares those outlooks while ignoring all doubters and facts.
