I watched WEAPONS to find out if it was really bad
Hello everyone, today I want to talk about the last movie I had the opportunity to see, a “horror” or rather suspense movie called “WEAPONS,” which I really didn’t want to see because of the amount of advertising I saw on TikTok for this movie. As you know, these days, many TikTokers use their fame to recommend countless things that end up being terrible, including movies or series. I was also discouraged to see some negative comments about this movie, but finally, after thinking about it a lot, I decided to watch it… I thought, “Anyway, I’ve wasted my time watching worse things,” and well, to my surprise, the movie caught me very quickly and I really liked it, haha.
The film begins with a narration telling us that an entire class (except for one child) disappeared in the middle of the night. All the children left their homes, and no one knew where they had gone. A very strange event ends up driving all the parents to despair, and they blame the teacher in that classroom. They even believe the teacher is a witch.
And the interesting thing about this film is that it caught me pretty quickly, even though it's not a horror film where you get scared every five minutes. There's drama, suspense, some horror, and even laughable moments. The story is told from six different points of view, and little by little, it helps you understand what's happening and how everything connects.
I don't want to give too many details since it's one of those movies that's better to watch without knowing everything that awaits you. I don't want to say it's a perfect movie or the greatest work of art I've ever seen, but it did feel pretty good to see a different plot without knowing what awaits you in the next act. Although it has some plot holes that can be overlooked since the acting is quite good and makes you forget about those details, it's very important to me that it conveys the true emotions and reactions of an average person in such a situation, and this movie does that very well.
The only spoiler I can give now is that movies that include witches are the ones that scare me the most, but I love them, I feel like this topic is something that can really happen and that it's really scary to know that there are people that crazy out there in real life. And if you've already seen this movie and know the ending, I would like to know what you think about that ending, since I saw a lot of people complaining that it had a very discordant ending with the whole movie, I thought it was perfect, I literally loved it hahaha, although I would have liked to know how they explained that whole situation to the police since I highly doubt that the police believe in witchcraft. Anyway, this movie surprised me quite a bit and I didn't expect it to be like that, my final score is 4.8/5.
