Zach Cregger\u2019s Weapons<\/a><\/strong> has received rave reviews from critics and scored highly on Rotten Tomatoes as a result. Releasing on Friday, August 8, 2025, the horror film is being described as one of the scariest movies of Josh Brolin\u2019s career thus far. Alongside Brolin, the film also stars Julia Garner, Alden Ehrenreich, and Benedict Wong, among many others.<\/p>\n Weapons is receiving high praise from critics and being lauded as a \u201chorror achievement.\u201d The film revolves around the mysterious disappearance of numerous children from the same class who all went missing on the same night and at the same time. This leads to chaos as locals try to decode the mystery behind the disappearances.<\/p>\n Here is what critics are saying about the movie.<\/p>\n John Nugent of Empire Magazine<\/a> wrote, \u201cA hugely accomplished horror achievement, and a significant step up from Barbarian: tense, sad, hilarious, unsettling, ridiculously entertaining, and ultimately oddly uplifting.\u201d<\/p>\n Benjamin Lee of The Guardian<\/a> compared Weapons to a Stephen King story and stated, \u201cIt\u2019s a tantalising setup, pitched somewhere between Stephen King and the Brothers Grimm, and Cregger\u2019s careful slow build keeps us in thrall for the most part, eager to see just how the puzzle-pieces fit.\u201d<\/p>\n Peter Debruge of Variety<\/a> described the movie as a \u201ccruel bedtime story\u201d and stated that \u201cCregger has achieved something remarkable here, crafting a cruel and twisted bedtime story of the sort the Brothers Grimm might have spun.\u201d<\/p>\n Meagan Navarro of Bloody Disgusting<\/a> praised the film\u2019s humor and practical effects, writing, \u201cThis is a horror movie that trusts its audience, while also delivering on practical effects-driven violence, methodically employed scares, and a biting sense of humor that\u2019ll leave you squealing and squirming in equal measure.\u201d<\/p>\n Weapons has received one of the highest Rotten Tomatoes<\/a> scores for a major horror release in quite some time. The movie has earned a score of 95 percent on the Tomatometer based on 96 reviews. Previously, it had a perfect 100 percent on the Tomatometer based on 42 reviews.<\/p>\n It seems that Weapons has not only lived up to the expectations set by Cregger\u2019s 2022 movie Barbarian, which has a 92 percent score on Rotten Tomatoes<\/a>, but also surpassed them.<\/p>\n Originally reported by Ishita Verma on SuperHeroHype<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n The post Weapons Reviews & Rotten Tomatoes Score Prove It\u2019s a Must Watch<\/a> appeared first on ComingSoon.net – Movie Trailers, TV & Streaming News, and More<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.yahoo.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Zach Cregger\u2019s Weapons has received rave reviews from critics and scored highly on Rotten Tomatoes as a result.
