Clevercell Very disappointing...

Kirandeep Yoder The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.

Rexanne It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny

Candida It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

namnhile The idea itself of the purge is very interesting but the scenario in this movie is very disatisfying. Everything seems to be very illogical. All the wealthy family just have hand guns and a shotgun. Look! living in the purge as a wealthy family and you don't even have a riffle and bulletproof vests in your arsenal is just absurd. When people are in front of your house threatening you and you don't have a way to shoot them in the face is just ridiculous. You can have a machine gun mounted on top of your house or a tower just like the ones on armor tanks, remote control and shoot one by one out of them. And even you bust into your door and you don't have a assault rifle mounted behind a steel shied and shoot the hell out of them is another disappointed point. They are rich and suppose to be smart, well prepared but their actions and thought are very simple and predictable. There are hundreds of ideas to make this movie better. If you want to make a satisfying chaos movie, put real actions and thought into it. Don't be lazy!

sergioba-10082 This movie does not deserve much of my time. I just wanna say this movie is stupid and just awful in many levels. The lack of logical sense on this movie is bigger than the Grand Canyon. Don't watch this movie.

tterifajova I remember seeing a screen of this movie years ago and I was strongly intrigued. The idea itself is pretty intriguing, when you do forget the plotholes - at least for myself I find the situation when after a twelve hours of going berserk you become once again a lovely neighbour. Though you'd have to be a really disciplined one to hold the act for 364 days... And also petty.But after less than an hour of watching, the movie got predictable. You don't have to be a mastermind to figure the daughter will be used as a hostage when both of them are roaming around the house and the Homeless Stranger wants to survive. Man, it was Charlie's fault in the first place! What ten-year-old supposed genius let's in a stranger during the most horrible night in the country?! Morally, I would. But open the house without permission or conciousness of my parents? What if someone was lurking around and got to our house first? I dunno. Why I gave three stars? Those. Masks. Are. Beautiful. In my honest opinion. They are what got me to want to watch it. The scenes of the Purgators who are playing in the yard and whe they first break into the house, as stand-alone scenes they could be rated higher. I find them mesmerising. Then it is a domestic horror, they just hunt each other down in the house that is SO DARN BIG. And they are so darn bad at being cautious. Charlie, for life's sake, when you are hiding in the basement, and you are HIDING, put some mind into it and do not fence around with that flashlight. And thank goodness there are the neighbours. Though once they kill the Massacre group, you see they are the next killers. Haha, were you surprised? we got look at fancy american households that had protective membrane around them. why cannot you film how it looks like in lower class households who are vulnerable to any psycho eve when they are innocent? Too bad James died though. If I had to choose, he was the one who got on my nerves the least.

lebronisballinlikeaboss I thought maybe the reviews here were being too harsh, but it is fully justified. It really was a blown opportunity. The production, execution, and script is awful. The only reason this gets any stars is because the acting was actually pretty solid considering what they had to work with. You could tell they did their best with what they were handed.
