Interesting new concept - had me interested for the whole movie. I can see how it's gotten so much dislike here, but I enjoyed it.

Mindless entertainment like the tv show...momma wouldn't approve

The Purge is a surprisingly fun and original horror/thriller flick.

The acting in my opinion is on point for the absurd nature of the film. The actions feel relatable for most the characters, and nobody really feels like they're out of place.

I would classify the Purge more as a graphic thriller than a horror, but there's some good scares throughout.

If you're into bloody thrillers, I think The Purge is a great watch.

It was a beautiful film, the last scenes were extraordinary but the movie came too fast

Nice to revisit this one. Enjoyed it much better the second around time. It drags at times and the antics of the teenaged daughter are annoying to say the least. Still the movie has pop and pulp.
