Director : Zach Cregger
Julia Garner, Josh Brolin, Benedict Wong, Amy Madigan & Alden Ehrenreich
From Zach Cregger the helmer of Barbarian comes WEAPONS a picture that is truly unlike anything you’ll see in the cinema this year… it’s mysterious, unsettling, fresh & original yet tainted with a darkness of peak Shyamalan… if the narrative that involves young children vanishing from a school doesn’t make you feel unnerved then what happens next to some of the citizens in this small community surely will… there’s so many “Kevin” hands to mouth moments throughout Weapons but I particularly loved the convenience store scenes, Gladys visiting Marcus at home and my throat tightened when Justine came across the house with newspaper cuttings covering the windows… the witch hunt, the paranoia, the dark & moody suburbian streets, the cop chase & even the utterly insane moments of dark humor are all captured magnificently by Seiple’s all consuming camera work & Cregger’s direction and fucked up script ★★★★★
