‘Love Again’ Review: Not Even Celine Dion Can Save This Wildly Contrived Rom-Com from Its Own Sadness The outsides have that rustic “ Carrie Bradshaw in Suffern” feel, but the insides are giving gay-decorator, toile de jouy realness. Daddy Andrew (Ben Aldridge, definitely evoking that nomenclature and all it entails) and Daddy Eric (Jonathan Groff, never quite daddy-adjacent but still in his twunk era) have taken their daughter, Wen (Kristen Cui), for a summer vacation at a lakeside New Hampshire cabin. In the same way “Unbreakable” disguised itself as a superhero movie before revealing different stripes beneath its cape, “Knock at the Cabin” begins as a traditional home invasion thriller.

As sturdily crafted as “Knock at the Cabin” may be, Shyamalan’s funny games never achieve the profundity they’re reaching for, ending up as a preachy end-times message movie wrapped up in a slick horror package. Tremblay, a source material much bleaker than Shyamalan’s faith-based end-times and cheaply hopeful interpretation of the text. It’s based on the horror novel “The Cabin at the End of the World” by Paul G. Night Shyamalan’s new thriller “ Knock at the Cabin,” the fate of the planet lies in the hands and whims of… a pair of single-child-family gay dads? Regardless of your thoughts on the movie’s quality, that’s certainly a tick toward representation even if the film comes in a largely conservative package that isn’t entirely Shyamalan’s conception.
