As a passionate movie enthusiast, I’ve been eagerly anticipating the arrival of Zach Cregger’s latest horror masterpiece, Weapons. The build-up to its release has been electrifying, and now that it’s finally gracing our cinema screens, I couldn’t be more thrilled! And just when my anticipation was reaching its peak, the Rotten Tomatoes score for this chilling film has been unveiled, leaving me even more intrigued about what lies ahead in the darkened theater.
According to 160 reviews available at this moment, the movie has received an impressive 96% approval rating from critics. In other words, out of all the critics who have weighed in on the film so far, nearly 96% have given it positive feedback, as opposed to a review that is more critical or negative.
The movie is currently rated at 90% by the Popcorn Meter, a tool that assesses the level of excitement in user reviews in a comparable fashion.
According to Rotten Tomatoes’ review consensus, Zach Cregger skillfully weaves a chilling tale filled with suspense and excitement in the film “Weapons”. This second effort cements his reputation as a horror genre maestro.
Previously known for roles in shows like Friends with Benefits, About a Boy, and Wrecked, Cregger made a striking entry into the horror genre as the writer and director of the critically-acclaimed 2022 movie, Barbarian.
In simpler terms, the summary of Weapons implies that most children from a single classroom disappear simultaneously during the same night, leaving the community puzzled about who or what could be responsible for their vanishing.
In this intriguing movie, you’ll find actors like Josh Brolin, Julia Garner, Alden Ehrenreich, Austin Abrams, Cary Christopher, Benedict Wong, and Amy Madigan gracing the screen.
Brolin conversed with TopMob about the eagerness that’s accumulated among horror enthusiasts regarding the upcoming film, as they’ve been speculating and forming their own theories about the plot, attempting to decipher the mystery within the movie.
Brolin expressed that the appeal lies in it, similar to the excitement of a fresh book or upcoming movie. You dive into it, eager to unravel its mysteries. Yet, there’s an element of intrigue as it’s not always possible to fully understand.
This occurs with a fresh voice, a debut filmmaker, and an authentic visionary who isn’t tied down by a studio’s control.
Additionally, it’s clear that everyone shares the common goal: the movie’s success. Yet, what I believe sets us apart – and likely Zach too – is the desire for the audience to have an unforgettable, landmark experience they can reminisce about in the future.
Reminiscing with friends, I often find myself saying something like, ‘Don’t you recall when the band Weapons debuted? It was quite a moment!’ Sometimes I share, ‘I happened to witness it when I was fourteen,’ or ‘I was twenty-three at the time and it made quite an impact.’ I believe this sentiment resonates with me.
