Review of The Purge (2013) by Meme L — 24 Jul 2014
It's just a stupid movie. The very premise is completely unbelievable and pushes suspension of disbelief one too many times and the characters all act like stock horror/thriller characters, they're unlikable and none of them act like actual human beings would in the situations the film presents.
Any attempts at terror in the movie are just cheap jump-scares, the plot-twist near the end is obnoxious and can be seen coming from a mile away, the film is obnoxiously mostly shot in the dark and it clumsily attempts and fails at trying to say more than what it is: another cliche thriller/horror film devoid of any kind of true tension or fear.
