Witch craft, alcoholism, adultery and the dissapearance of 17 classmates in a single elementary school classroom set the tone for "Weapons."
Seventeen students go missing on the same night in Julia Garner's classroom. Garner is the prime suspect responsible for the children's disappearance in Josh Brolin's eyes. Brolin portrays the father of one of the boys gone missing in the classroom. The students all ran out of their homes at 2:00 a.m. This is known because home security cameras from many of the parents, including Brolin show the children leaving their homes by themselfs, and running off into the darkness.
One student remains in Garner's classroom, and he has no answers for the police or parents, and there's no clear evidence Garner is the one responsible.
Who is the witch in the town? Is there dark magic? This flick is more dialogue then action, and it worked for me, despite it's bizarre realm into witchcraft. It's a three star flick that's more of a video than a big screen watch.
