Fresh on HBO Max

Zach Cregger's Film

  • Type: Horror mystery
  • Length: 2h 8m
  • Director: Zach Cregger
  • Cast: A star-studded lineup

A small community is torn apart by the enigma of the fate of a group of kids from the same third-grade class who rose simultaneously in the dark and disappeared into the night. The prior film Barbarian director Zach Cregger follows the perspective of various characters seeking the truth in this deeply moving and highly troubling cinematic work.

Key inquiries with an elaborate mystery are always whether that narrative momentum can be maintained, and whether the journey is finally rewarding. Fundamentally, Weapons delivers impressively. Once its grand finale unfolds, it feels both inevitable and delightfully fresh, ideally structured to challenge any mutterings of “That’s it?”. Once the frights fade, there are remaining uncertainties about the exact reasons the plot used a multi-perspective cast.
