Knock at the Cabin

"Satisfyingly atmospheric and tense."

"A preachy end-times message movie wrapped up in a slick horror package."

"Preposterous yet gripping..."

"(Shyamalan's) apocalyptic mystery horror is short on both mystery and horror and the ambiguous finale is deeply ridiculous."

"Quickly paced but single-note and ineffectual..."

"The message is mostly lost in sentiment..."

"An apocalypse movie that doesn’t feel all that apocalyptic..."

"One of the more pessimistic entries on (Shyamalan's) resume."

"Knock at the Cabin perpetually seems to be stalling for time..."

"Hopefully, Knock at the Cabin will serve as a reminder that Shyamalan should be celebrated as much for his craftsmanship as he is for his shock tactics."

"The empathy (Knock at the Cabin) displays toward all of its characters marks it as one of the few apocalyptic dramas to earn its enduring faith in humanity."

"While the script is shaky, Knock at the Cabin features some of M. Night Shyamalan's best direction in a while."

"(With this film) M. Night Shyamalan reminds us why we liked him in the first place."

"Trouble is, these days, it’s no surprise to be let down by a Shyamalan movie."

"A well-crafted intimate thriller that plays with your expectations..."

"The more you realize where Shyamalan is leading us... the more difficult it becomes to locate a worthwhile point."

"Rushed but effective..."

"Clever without being over-clever, it's also earnest and affecting..."
