Review of The Purge (2013) by D.a. Z — 29 Mar 2014
It's frustrating seeing a film with so much potential for depth and originality, only to watch it plumet into anticlimactic drivel. The Purge was built around a brilliant political philosophy that could have been executed in an intellectually stirring manner as a socio-political commentary.
Instead, we're left with racist and misogynistic undertones, a pathetic attempt at suspense, and cringe-worthy cinematography. There's a good film out there for James DeMonaco. The Purge is not it.
