POSITIVES…
Fans of the Purge franchise will find a lot to like about this installment.
Those who like peaking into dystopian realities will find some interesting stuff here.
Arguably is the scariest and most intense entry to the series.
Day after “the purge” scenes of confusion that leads into the “forever purge” was a good build up to the rest of the narrative.
Once it kicks in, the story for this one is pretty engaging in a non-stop thriller kind of way, that you’ll want to see how they conclude it.
Good ensemble cast which includes Ana de la Reguera, Tenoch Huerta, Josh Lucas, Cassidy Freeman, Alejandro Edda, Leven Rambin, and Will Patton.
Movie just wouldn’t be as entertaining if it wasn’t for it’s solid cast, their interactions with each other, and their reactions to what’s going on.
That one scene in El Paso Texas that looks shot like one continuous take, gives you a fun take on what an amusement ride for The Purge could look like.
Guessing the type of weapon just based on hearing the gunshot. How twisted is that?
“Speaking english! Translate!” LOL
I appreciated the social political commentaries that this story had. Cautionary tale indeed.
NEGATIVES…
While the idea for this franchise is fascinating, it’s still a flawed concept that lends itself to questions it can’t seem to answer, and thus ruins that suspension of disbelief when watching this in one form or another.
Honestly, it could have been more violent, more chaotic, and more traumatic. Despite it’s attempt at horror, it’s still too tame for a concept like this.
Fake out jump scares. Meh.
Has that bit of predictability since it follows some familiar plot tropes and cliches.
Plot conveniences caused by stupid character decisions. Yeah. Still in this movie.
Although they roughly touched on it here, I still wished they showed more of what the day after the purge actually looks like.
The untranslated Spanish language spoken might bother some people.
