Genesis and Bel are annoying with their horrifically bad flirtation and uninventive torturing. Reeves' Evan is annoying as he goes about making mistake after mistake.

The entirety of the movie, from the depiction of Evan's home life to his lustful night to his subsequent punishment is perhaps best described as annoying. What starts out as a kind gesture results in a dangerous seduction and a deadly game of cat and mouse. They start by ruining his kitchen, up the ante by threatening to tell his wife, and soon have Evan tied up as they play a game where he has to answer questions or have physical pain inflicted upon himself. Summary: When a devoted husband and father (Keanu Reeves) is left home alone for the weekend, two stranded young women (Lorenza Izzo & Ana de Armas) unexpectedly knock on his door for help.
KNOCK KNOCK REVIEW SERIES
The audience watches as a series of increasing-and infantile-humiliations are visited upon him by Genesis and Bel. Evan is just a guy who made an inexcusable mistake and who probably deserves to have his happy home life ruined, but does not deserve this particular punishment. If it was his wife doing the torturing that would also work.

If he himself was a killer, if he regularly cheated, if a myriad of other things occurred, Roth could get the audience to sympathize better with Evan's comeuppance. That transgression, however, does not rise to a level requiring his torture, particularly his torture from those with whom he cheated. It doesn't matter if the women get naked and really push for the sex, it's still not okay. The simple fact is that cheating on his wife is not okay. Now, it must be stated that Evan's actions are inexcusable. Evan soon sleeps with Genesis and Bel and the next day they torture him for it. After some laughable (for the audience) flirting on their part, flirting which makes Evan very uncomfortable, the women de-robe and become quite sexually aggressive. It's raining, it's late, and Evan is, as stated, a nice guy, so he lets them come inside and wait as he calls an Uber. In the middle of the first night alone, two women, Genesis (Lorenza Izzo) and Bel (Ana de Armas), knock on Evan's door, explaining that they're trying to get to a party and are lost.
