Enjoyable

Rating: 7/10 (8 December 2015)

The Purge is the start of one of Blumhouse Production's horror movie franchises like Insidious and Paranormal Activity. The trailer for The Purge looked really promising but in the end the film didn't managed to get status of a modern classic. That doesn't mean I didn't had fun - yes I did. Let's start with the good things.
1)The whole idea of the film is excellent.
2)Some nice performances.
3)The Polite Stranger was a nice villain.
4)The most likable character from all was the Bloody Stranger.
5)There was some great action towards the end.
6)Polite Stranger's group showed some craziness, which was kinda creepy.
7)The costumer for the Polite Stranger's group were well made.
8)Little part of the film switched between something like found footage and non-found footage.
9)Overall, it delivered entertainment.
Let's see now the negatives.
1)Charlie, the son, is pretty dump.
2)Zoey, the sister, is also kinda dump, at least less.
3)The kids's performances weren't that good.
4)Henry, Zoey's boyfriend, was got too minor role.
5)The Polite Stranger's defeat was disappointing.
6)The writing at times.
7)Feels like wasted potential.
I, like many other people, think, that The Purge isn't among the best horror film in recent history. But I think The Purge isn't the worst. It managed to entertain me so from Bad 1 to Excellent 6 I give it VERY GOOD 4.50.
