I'm guessing you're referring to Knock at the Cabin?

Yeah, updated the post. Although I have my suspicions about Shazam's melodramatic aspects...

I liked Old a lot more than most too, I don't know I guess I just vibe with M. Night's goofy ass modern style.

Yeah Old was great, I liked The Visit a lot too (do you think M Night wrote the little kid's bars?) Maybe Knock took itself too seriously for the "dumb but very entertaining" appeal his movies have for me. And then they slapped a corny ending on it.

Wasn't Knock directed by his daughter and not him so much?
I enjoyed Old.

I can't find anything about that, just that she's working on her debut.

I found an article saying that she was the second unit Director on Old but maybe she wasn't involved with Knock at the Cabin like that I thought.

The ending of Knock definitely sucked. Loved the first 90 minutes, hated the final 10. Book ending was much better
I’m about to walk into a “Mystery Movie Monday” which is a pretty cool concept actually. It appears to be shockingly popular, the theater is packed

One thing I remember is the flashbacks being really poorly written. Do they work better in the book?
