Disappointed..

Rating: 3/10 (9 June 2013)

Were to start with The Purge..
Firstly, For this film that was said to be from the makers of paranormal activity and sinister, what a disappointment.The purge in my opinion has what you would think a 'good' concept to it, An Just by the thought of there being one day in the whole year were every crime is legal, You would think they would have done something just a bit more with this film.
The beginning was almost as-if the writers just couldn't be bothered to give us any background knowledge of the family. it seemed as though whilst your watching the film that there's a few second of slow moving at the beginning and then BAM, straight into action! Every time there was a slight climax were You thought this film is about to perk up and possibly even start getting half good, the peek would just be a shamble of bad over Exaggerated acting and and no real exciting horror that would force you to look away. The only part that i could even remember making me slightly turn my head was the pressing of the wound on the fugitive that entered their home, and even that slice of action could be found on an episode of Casualty.
For me, i was expecting a bit more for this very short lived film and Would have at least liked to be slightly scared as i was by paranormal activity and sinister! Its defiantly more thriller than horror! The ending was very predictable and lets be fair, We all knew the fugitive would be saved at the end by the family as this film is showing that maybe even high class people have at least some consideration for the poor. Even though maybe just maybe she could have offered him a home at their house at the end, Yunno giving the fact that he did just save their lives, maybe IM asking for a bit much.
But all in all maybe i did have a pessimistic attitude before even going into this film because the plot is so UNREALISTIC that it almost put me off even before hand, This plot is something that would NEVER EVER happen. But others might enjoy this film :)
