Stupid to a criminal degree

"Decriminalised Murder. An outlet for American Rage." There's nothing worse than watching a motion picture completely waste a brilliant premise. 2013's The Purge is one such movie. It's built on a marvellous idea that could've made for a mature and thought-provoking examination of contemporary society, but writer-director James DeMonaco has no interest in a quality motion picture, instead deliver... read more

Let me begin by saying that The Purge's box office success reveals far more of the bloodthirsty anarchism that lies barely dormant in today's society than establishing it's viability as a well-crafted film. Now this assessment might seem a bit harsh to some, especially if this film was well-received by you but let me state my case and you be the judge.

The film's premise is more th... read more

I'm way too sensitive to these kinds of movies, I cried at the beginning and when the violence started. Mostly because there were people cheering in the audience, and all I could think was how someone could want to hurt let alone kill another human being. And then when I walked out of the theater, there were people saying how cool it was and that it should happen. I feel like a lot of people misse... read more

Message or Meaning! (24 movies items)

" The message: The basis of the movies rely on The Purge; twelve hours of lawless rule, where any and all crime is legal and there are zero consequences in return, even when it comes to murder. The Purge was created to lower the population in lower-class neighborhoods, specifically areas filled with POC. While people in these areas hide and fight for their lives over the twelve-hour period, people who have a substantial amount of money and are on the wealthy side of the world don't have to w"

"No se cuantos errores evidentes tiene esta pelicula pero el principal y mas grande de estos es su premisa de "Una ley que te deja asesinar por 12 horas" la cual la pelicula demuestra que esta llena de incoherencias en repetidas ocasiones."

Film Journal 2013 (98 movies items)

" I liked this movie because it's a good discussion topic. What if...? Can you imagine? There were parts of it that surprised me and there were parts that didn't. Mostly, I think it was an original idea that was decently executed. I think my favorite character was the Polite Leader. I enjoy characters who use more words than they need, especially in an eloquent way. Yeah, this was definitely cool."
