If you are debating to either go to the theaters and watch Weapons or wait to rent it at home, I would wait it out. Weapons is another one of those, "Greatest movies of the year!" That falls short of just being ok.

After watching it in theaters, I realized Weapons was simply a long drawn out witch movie, with weak character plotting, very few scares, and cringe jokes. Although these things made this movie seem very underwhelming, it wasn't terrible. There were a few good gory scenes that had me disturbed and the writing was decent, but that alone couldn't change my mind that this was just a mediocre movie. I feel that people don't remember great movies anymore, so when a halfway decent movie comes out everyone is so surprised.

So in my opinion, save the bucks and wait for it to go onto streaming services. You're not "missing out."
