Weapons

Zach Cregger proves himself more than capable of making a film on a much larger scale than his previous work. Weapons takes its time and builds trust with its audience. It never feels like it’s holding your hand. A lot of people are complaining about things going unexplored and to that I say this; you simply weren’t paying attention. The screenplay is very tightly written, somehow because of Cregger’s chaotic writing style. And not just his writing, but his direction as well. You can feel the confidence behind the camera with every story beat and character decision. He doesn’t just surpass Barbarian in quality. He laps himself tenfold.
