Good overall start to The Purge franchise, acting isn't too bad and the theme of the movie was better than I expected. I had heard much about this movie and though initially not fussed about it, after watching, I wasn't disappointed. However, having seen the next additions - Anarchy and Election Year, this has to be the least interesting but don't let that put you off as it really is better to watch the whole 'Purge' franchise.

The concept of this film is interesting. There were so many areas where breakdown of society on this one night could have been explored. Instead, we're stuck with poor acting and a lot of things that just don't make sense. I give this two stars because the concept was good.

Personally loved this film. I liked the concept. And the thought of if this was true life how scary would that be. For one night only, once a year, the need to protect your family but also the permission to go kill your boss with no consequences 😂 The second film too is fantastic . Its a good believable thriller 👹
