Why watch the movie Weapons?
"Weapons is a film by Zach Cregger, an actor and comedian who surprised the world with his directorial debut in horror with Barbarian. The plot presents a mystery that is sustained from start to finish: one night, precisely at 2:17 AM, 17 of the 18 children in teacher Justine Gandy's (Julia Garner) class wake up and run out of their homes into the darkness, never to be seen again. The event leaves the entire town with more anger and questions than answers, Justine as the only suspect, and the remaining child, Alex (Cary Christopher), in a precarious situation. The film unfolds with an episodic structure, showing different characters' perspectives on the events and their repercussions, slowly revealing the complexity of the mystery and its horrors. It's not a film that fits solely under the horror genre definition, but one that plays with many others, enriching the experience and making it one of the best films of 2025.
