Watch The Purge Movie Online Streaming No DownloadingIf on one night every year, you could commit any crime without facing consequences, what would you do? In The Purge, a speculative thriller that follows one family over the course of a single night, four people will be tested to see how far they will go to protect themselves when the vicious outside world breaks into their home. In an America wracked by crime and overcrowded prisons, the government has sanctioned an annual 12-hour period in which any and all criminal activity-including murder-becomes legal. The police can't be called. Hospitals suspend help. It's one night when the citizenry regulates itself without thought of punishment. On this night plagued by violence and an epidemic of crime, one family wrestles with the decision of who they will become when a stranger comes knocking. When an intruder breaks into James Sandin's (Ethan Hawke) gated community during the yearly lockdown, he begins a sequence of events that threatens to tear a family apart. Now, it is up to James, his wife, Mary (Lena Headey), and their kids to make it through the night without turning into the monsters from whom they hide. Directed by James DeMonaco (writer of Assault on Precinct 13 and The Negotiator), The Purge is produced by Jason Blum of Blumhouse (Paranormal Activity, Insidious, Sinister), Platinum Dunes' partners Michael Bay, Brad Fuller and Andrew Form (The Amityville Horror, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre), as well as Sébastien Kurt Lemercier (Assault on Precinct 13).(c) Universal Release Date The Purge Jun 7, 2013 Limited | |

Review For The Purge | |
| A blunt takedown of 1%-er politics masquerading as a home invasion picture. Matt Patches-Film.com The film morphs into a dull version of Straw Dogs ... Joshua Rothkopf-Time Out New York The set-up is arresting, the domestic scenes well observed and acted, and the payoffs involving that Roomba toy excellent. Also, a late-film twist isn't a surprise, exactly, but it is delicious. Alan Scherstuhl-Village Voice The film's would-be subversive ideas about the kneejerk appeal of social violence get lost in the mix. Nigel Floyd-Time Out ...a smartly crafted movie that will leave you not only glad you don't live in that world, but wondering who you could trust among your friends and neighbors if you did. Daniel M. Kimmel-Sci-Fi Movie Page A rote home-invasion thriller afraid to be seen as just another rote home-invasion thriller, the film turgidly grasps for profundity by framing bloodlust as patriotic duty. Ed Gonzalez-Slant Magazine Heavy handed satire of a violent, haves vs. have-nots America remade in the NRA and Tea Party's image. Roger Moore-Movie Nation A dark allegory that never justifies its central conceit, dooming all that follows. Tim Grierson-Screen International DeMonaco's movie lacks the courage to explore the possibilities suggested by its stoner argument conceit. Ed Whitfield-The Ooh Tray The tension is well sustained and the film is an effective, predictable cross between Assault on Precinct 13 (the remake of which DeMonaco scripted) and Funny Games ... Philip French-Observer [UK] Truly original dystopian high concepts don't come along that often. We should, thus, savour a good one when we encounter it. Donald Clarke-Irish Times The flip into action mode for the final act is slightly incongruous but mirrors the audiences own desire for release, revenge and bloodshed. Henry Northmore-The List For all its silliness, The Purge is a pretty decent suspenser, effectively shot in semi-darkness in a confined setting. Russell Lewin-SFX Magazine A home-invasion thriller with a twist, this fiercely clever film is both thought-provoking and terrifying, mixing a Twilight Zone sense of morality with skilfully developed menace and genuinely horrific violence. Rich Cline-Contactmusic.com A slice of low-budget, high-concept sci-fi, a passionate, if somewhat pulpy, homage to paranoid classics such as The Stepford Wives. Charlotte O'Sullivan-This is London In American suburbia you are never safe, least of all when you think you are. Keep your friends close and your fellow 'burb-dwellers closer. Nigel Andrews-Financial Times it is not long before the film's high concept is beleaguered by an aggressive incursion of standard genre plotting Anton Bitel-Grolsch Film Works It's clever in the way it takes some disagreeable elements from our own time - fear of racial minorities, envy of wealth, needless aggression and gun crime - slightly exaggerates them and projects them into the near future. Christopher Tookey-Daily Mail [UK] The film doesn't develop its one good idea so much as stumble around in the dark with it for 85 minutes, crashing noisily into the furniture. Mike McCahill-Guardian [UK] James DeMonaco's blood-splattered thriller begins well before expiring slowly from multiple improbabilities. Neil Smith-Total Film Asks us to look anew - and askance - at conventions of cinematic horror while also engaging in startling satire of America's culture of violence.
