Movie Reviews

Onslaught opens Friday at 74% on the Tomatometer

What happened

Rotten Tomatoes’ page for Onslaught, pulled live for this filing, shows a 74% Tomatometer from 35 reviews. The Popcornmeter lists 0 verified audience scores. The film is rated R, runs 1 hour 32 minutes, is an A24 release, and is dated to open wide Friday, September 4, 2026. Adam Wingard directs. Simon Barrett is on the script side as RT lists him. Adria Arjona stars as Celeste, with Dan Stevens in the company. The site’s synopsis, as printed, is the plot line this recap will not rewrite into a fan wiki: Celeste fights to protect her family when their home becomes the hunting ground. Those credits, that runtime, that rating, and that tomato number are what the page shows this morning.

There is no Critics Consensus block on the page yet. This desk does not invent one. A 74 from 35 reviews is a critic-side snapshot before Friday. Zero verified audience scores is the pre-opening bucket, not a claim that nobody liked it and not a claim that the audience meter is broken. The strip is the ripe meter, the empty popcorn, the blank sticky, and a ticket. Color on the tomato, the bucket, the note, the stub. White gutters. Cartoon stand-ins, not actor portraits. Movie Reviews here recap what RT actually prints: Tomatometer, review count, audience score, consensus if present, rating, runtime, studio, date.

Why it matters

Onslaught is the new wide date this week. Readers get the numbers without a made-up blurb. If consensus lands after Friday, that is a later pull. Today’s page does not have it. Wingard and Barrett are the genre pairing RT’s credits already show. Arjona as Celeste is the lead name on the page. Stevens is listed. Those names go in the recap as credits, not as a review this desk is writing on top of the tomato. Certified-fresh math is RT’s business. What this filing needs is the printed 74, the printed 35, the printed zero on the Popcornmeter, and the honest blank where consensus usually sits.

The Friday, Sept. 4 wide date is the clock. R and 1:32 are the label on the ticket. A24 is the studio on that same ticket. This recap is not a spoiler sheet, not a box-office guess, and not a substitute critic quote. It is a scoreboard copy of https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/onslaught as the page stood for the Wednesday batch. The comic’s last panel is the ticket. The first three are the meters and the missing consensus, which is the honest story of a pre-opening tomato.

Conclusion

Onslaught sits at 74% from 35 reviews, 0 verified audience scores, no consensus block yet, R, 1:32, A24, opens Sept. 4. Adam Wingard directs, Simon Barrett on the script as listed, Adria Arjona as Celeste, Dan Stevens in the company. The strip is a 74% tomato, an empty popcorn bucket, a blank consensus sticky, and a Friday ticket. Those scores are RT’s, copied as printed, not guessed.
