This image released by Universal Pictures shows Ben Aldridge, from left, Kristen Cui, and Jonathan Groff in a scene from "Knock at the Cabin." After seven weeks as the top film in theaters, "Avatar: The Way of Water" was finally knocked out of the No. 1 spot by the M. Night Shyamalan thriller "Knock at the Cabin" and the octogenarian comedy "80 for Brady."
But "Knock at the Cabin" still marks Shyamalan's seventh film as director to open No. 1. With a modest budget of US$20 million, "Knock at the Cabin" should easily turn a profit. The film, which drew mostly positive reviews from critics , added another US$7 million internationally. It seemed to work. At a time when comedies have struggled mightily in theaters, "80 for Brady" had one of the best openings for a live-action comedy in years. Discount pricing is to continue for the rest of the film's run.
