The most provocative yet deep and question movie in this modern age

Rating: 10/10 (26 October 2013)

I was surprised by how deep this concept really struck me, from the simple yet totally bizarre idea that once a year, America, will have one single night of total criminal legalization to outweight the violence and murder that used to be a common fact before the idea was put to action. As it so happens, the statistics has changed over the years, and shows that all kinds of criminal activity has decreased rapidly due to the very fact that people are allowed the pleasure to purge themselves from impulsive and aggressive behavior on this very special night.
But, that is not the only thing that seem to change with this anual festivity. According to other sources, viewed upon as a "everyone has their own opinions" thing, the purge does not only work itself through anger management, but simultaneously erradicating any kind of humanity as poverty decreases due to the lack of affordance to the same kind of barricades the upper class has the means to procure.
What it all boils down to is formed perfectly throughout the movie saying that the purge does not rid the world of aggression, but actually supports evil to manifest itself in the psyche of every single individual participating in this vile and abhorrent ritual.
The ones that partake show no remorse of killing, and rather, religiously, delve in the very thankful gift of the founding fathers that came up with this barbaric idea, giving them the strength to go on, and support an ideal society. It shows that homicidal psychopathy is not a trend, but rather a natural behavior sinking discreetly into every human being, infectious and ruthless, til the point when none can tell the difference, ultimately resulting in a world were caring and understanding does not exist.
The purge (in the movie) has gotten responses from a fraction of mankind, people that still carry a conscience, saying that it is wrong, and has only supported a callous and harsch future, not dissimilar from how the real world looks today. It is a great metaphor for cruelty and egoism that revolves around the supposedly none existing upper class in todays society, saying that equality is a fact of our times, yet in real life unknowingly supports total materialism over the well-being of humanity as a whole.
The Purge takes the face of "the American dream" and rips it open turning the under-belly inside out showing the true face of greed and primal instinct.
This is not a review as much as it is an analysis of a subtle, yet extraordinary message, imagined as a cruel and distorted jest of real life, very parodic, yet with a perfect serious tone that really grips your sences.
As for the rest, I can only say, it was a good movie, no matter the acting or the scripture, but still, I guess it flowed so naturally that there's nothing to analyze from an objective stand-point, but rather a moral one. I think it is important that these kind of movies exist, not to scare us or makes us feel satisfied afterwards, but to stop us, make us sit down, and think about what it really means to be human.
Feel free to have another read after you've seen it. As I've said, it is an experience, more than just a flick, so, prepare I guess, or don't, just indulge in it, and hopefully learn something useful from it.
Have a good one!
