So...How did the rich neighbors never invite the people they hate to their purge party to kill them...it's like obvious... this family they hate they could have killed ages ago...Also none of these neighbors hated each other either? Hard to believe...In this world the Mortuary business must be more powerful then Gasoline, Oil and Nuclear Arms...
Thomas Johansson a 1. Maybe they were trying to do that but many people would have that same idea and pretty much make a blockade and prevent any travel from taking place. So if they left too late, they were stuck in the US. 2. If they did manage to get out of the country before the inevitable blockade happened, it would ruin the idea of the movie because you're just escaping the situation instead of facing it. It's a horror/thriller film for a reason.
I'm giving cinemasins one sin for not sinning the fact that the mother let her neighbors live... I mean, the purge happens every year, what makes she think that her neighbors won't try to kill her again next year?
Plus the neighborhoods hatred of the family makes NO SENSE! They keep making a big deal about how they “became rich off of the neighborhood” but these guys were literally selling the security system the neighbors used to stay safe during the purge. Why is it a bad thing that they made something to make sure you didn’t die? And even if you didn’t want the security system, they weren’t making anyone buy it?
Yeah, but as with anything this channel reviews, the movies try to patch the holes or something otherwise the movie turns ten minutes long. Same with the bad guy or evil entity; 'you were right behind him and could have taken him out right then but are choosing not to so the main character can take you out later' bits.
The whole concept of this movie is utterly mind numbing. All crime is legal for 12 hours. Ok, not a terrible starting concept. People then turn to killing homeless people. WHY!? Isn't there a bank nearby or something. You have all year to plan, get explosives, etc. why on earth would you possibly waste time on people whose death offers you nothing to gain. This movie could have been phenomenal if it was about people who in the 12 hours picked good targets to set them up financially until the next purge. They wouldn't have to work a day other than planning for their next purge. It could have been a great heist movie about people planning and capitalizing on the 12 hours, and even betraying each other because, hell why not? It could have been a smart, crime thriller but instead they made it about a family with the dumbest son on the face of the earth.
Even on top of the heist part, the second stage of the movie could be them escaping the banks and avoiding the murdering people walking the streets. I'd go see that if it was the purge, it as a horror movie is just stupid.
I would probably enjoy watching that movie. If this movie was right and the law was the only thing stopping us from murdering each other, then we'd never have survived long enough to make those laws in the first place.
Even the starting concept makes no sense. How does making crime legal once a year stop it for the rest of the year? And how does that kind of legislation get passed? Or cause a massive drop in unemployment? This movie was doomed to a lapse in logic from the start. It also doesn't help that they chose Michael Bay as one of the producers.
Watch "When They Cry". Not only are the kids normal, but likable. Which makes it all the more horrifying as the village curse slowly turns them into serial killers.
I’d just wait till the day after to by it off some idiot who was dumb/brave enough to rob the some place during the purge. But also I’m assuming apple have like fucking militants guarding the store.
@@alexfrance8864 Or having massive orgies...knowing humanity the majority would just have sex in the streets and do drugs or something, not murder random homeless people
Also wouldn't people this rich take a holiday to another country for this one day? Wouldn't the neighborhood hire private security contractors? Wouldn't they have an invulnerable panic room in the house? Wouldn't they have some sort of agreement with the neighbors to set up crossfires between houses? How many people would be willing to storm armored, fortified houses with clear fields of fire just to kill some random guy and how many of them would be alive and willing the second year?
They'd be leaving the house unguarded. EVERYTHING stolen. Private security contractors would betray you for easy money. Remember, all crime is legal. That'd make too much sense. Again, the neighbors would just betray you. This movie's premise is dumber than hell. Basically, it's trying to say that everyone in America wants to kill everyone.
MetalGearRexPilot Only pay the private security if you survive, not hard to set up. Store goods somewhere safe. Actually rich people would just leave the country fullstop. London would be full of ex-patriots.
SerPinkKnight Transfer of all finances to a foreign country? Yeah, forgot you could do that XD Everyone would move to Europe. Weeaboos would try to go to Japan and then be disappointed.
Imagine you try to kill a fellow employee on the purge and failed and your office cubicals are right next to each other or trying to kill your boss after the purge your definitely fired
The funny thing is that you could probably then sue your boss for wrongful dismissal, since you technically didn't do anything wrong. Unless the company itself has policies regarding employee behaviour on Purge night.
The most annoying gunshot cliché to me is whenever Denzel Washington gets shot. It doesn't matter how many times or where the bullets land, he just takes em all in stride and never so much as flinches.
Another sin: the homeless guy hiding then immediately screaming for someone to offer him shelter, giving away his position to the people who are chasing him.
I mean think about it. On this one night, you and some buddies could make off with a fucking BANK VAULT and the cops wouldn't give a shit. Makes way more sense then just killing some guy you don't like that much and being forced to attend his boring ass funeral.
They drop a line in the second movie about how the banks move the money (where I don't know but that must mean they can't do anything with cash for at least a week before and after the purge). I agree though the whole thing with it being mostly murder people do makes no sense, maybe I just have a high opinion on people but I doubt that many would jump straight to murder. Hell it seems the ones who based a new religion around it are the rich who pray before they kill someone, and hire people to kidnap folks for them to kill. Seriously with the stuff in the second movie it made it seem more like Hostel then what the film should be aiming towards, also sucks how in the second film we don't get any fan service seeing the rich people watching other rich people purge getting murdered. I mean fuck the least they could do is have them lined up and executed since they are such horrible people but instead they let them get away. Still I liked the second film more then the first cause the second was just a Punisher film but they never call the main guy Frank Castle.
Njjar Malak I assume that is why they have the stuff about "cleansing one's soul" via purging. Try to rationalize how they are doing the right thing by killing. If you notice though the people doing the most killing tend to be wealthy. I mean they pay folks to round up the lower class to hunt and pay the families of people so they can kill them in the safety of their homes.
I think they move all money from banks and stuff before the purge, but I get your point. If the purge really did exist, people wouldn't just go on a murder spree. It's not just the law that stops people from killing others. It's morally wrong and most people wouldn't do it even if they got a prize for it. And since it's so morally wrong the people who DO want to kill would still be discrete about it so they wouldn't get cut out from society once the purge ends. I mean, would you be happy to have a one-on-one lunch with your neighbor if they killed during the purge? I don't think so. And finally, murderers who kill for fun often get a kick out of it being wrong. It wouldn't be as satisfying to kill if it was legal. And psychopaths don't follow rules like this. So basically, if this was realistic stealing and petty crimes would increase during the purge, but murders would be happening all year round at the same rate as now.
All banks and big businesses would have heavy security in place so realistically it would mostly be small businesses people would steal from. But yeah, I think there would be a lot more theft and petty crime than murder.
Kerry Rose small businesses would just leave their money where it always is? You make absolutely no sense, everyone with money is taking it but nope the small businesses are a different breed. lol 😂 what goes on in your head where you would even think that makes sense 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
The first thing wrong with the movie is the premise that it would decrease crime. It would actually have the opposite effect, because people don't have the capacity to delay gratification, especially not for a year. And once people got a taste of breaking the law without negative consequences, they wouldn't be able to stop. Look at children. If you give in to their begging for candy in the checkout line even once, they will NEVER stop begging. You'll have to say no dozens of times and endure more intense begging and whining to get it to stop. Most parents these days don't have the emotional stamina, because they themselves cannot delay gratification.
It would also break society down. Just because an action is illegal one day, then legal the next, then illegal the next day, doesn't change the fact that it's just plain WRONG EVERY day. If the makers of these movies had any clue about psychology or morals, they could make movies that would make people think more deeply.
TobyCat This one especially! Think about it: being rude is legal 24/7, 365, but most of us don't put up with disrespect because of that. How is something as emotionally charged as murder going to be any better? Sure, okay, I know I can't legally get revenge, but if one of my neighbors killed my dog or stole something of mine during the purge, do you think I'm gonna forget that just because it's not illegal? No! I'm going to hold it over their heads forever, or try to sneakily get revenge sometime during the rest of the year even though it's illegal, or stock up on explosives and blow up their house in that precious time just before the purge officially starts. And what, are my other neighbors gonna report me for bending the rules to get back at the local dog killer? What is disappointing is that this could have been a pretty cool, thought-provoking story if the creators had spent some time actually thinking things through. Seeing all the perfectly innocent yet illegal things people want to do could be fun, like buying a ton of weed or stealing books or opening a restaurant without a permit. Examining how people rank certain crimes according to their own moral compass instead of fear of the law. Watching people clean up and go about their daily lives after the purge. How do you just get on the elevator with Steve from accounting when you saw him raping a kid at sunrise just a few hours ago? Or sit next to Becky at lunch when she was ready to fight you to the death over your great grandma's jewelry? There have to be a lot of people with PTSD now, is it addressed, or does society try to sweep that under the rug until 75% of the population has a complete nervous breakdown? There have to be some good Samaritans out there building fortified homeless shelters by now. Do religious institutions see more or less attacks than others? What happens when half the banks in the city have been robbed of all their cash?! And even though we're told that somehow, this has actually decreased crime the rest of the year, has everyday law enforcement changed in this other world? Aren't there still corrupt cops arresting innocent people just to fill their quota? If I had to include that ridiculous aspect of the story, I'd see crime dipping down a little the first few years, until more and more people are getting used to the idea of murder being enjoyable and cleansing. Then suddenly homicide rates spike dramatically across the country, as now people have a real blood lust and can't wait for one day a year. Do they start have more and more purge nights a year to make up for it, until society just falls apart? I guess a little bit of classism was addressed, what with the homeless being seen as deserving targets and the wealthy family thinking their kind is supposed to be above this even while their own neighbors plotted against them. But I feel this could have gone further; what do people think about the fact that this policy literally rewards the most violent people and punishes the most gentle? Don't most governments like their people docile and obedient? Maybe we have a moment with the lawmaker who originally proposed it, and it turns out their goal was for all the most violent people to end up killing each other, but they realize it failed horribly because, duh, people who like killing made friends with the other people who like killing, and they formed their own little groups to kill people who can't/won't fight back! Wow, sorry for the long response! I guess once I read your comments I saw an opportunity to cleanse myself of my hatred for this movie... Hey wait a second!
***** Yeah, but as we see in this movie, the bad people aren't really killing each other. They're teaming up to hunt down homeless veterans and terrorize suburbanites. That's why this total anarchy thing is such a flawed idea, even within the movie. I'd think that if you really want bad people to only kill other bad people, you should lock them up in an arena, gladiator style. Not give them free license to kill any of the thousands of innocent people who can't defend themselves.
13gothMoth No need to apologize. You basically addressed what plagued my mind on the whole movie, basically. I am surprised with all crime being legal, they didn't have a sequence where people in Washington D.C. just straight up light the entire city on fire with the politicians in the burn pile... :\ Also, the movie didn't really touch the opposing opinion of the purge. A separate faction of sorts that thought this law of the purge was completely and utterly ridiculous and *quite literally* insane... Surprised the international community didn't have a say in this either since this law seems to also be a huge human rights violation in general.
Watch "When They Cry". Not only are the kids normal, but likable. Which makes it all the more horrifying as the village curse slowly turns them into serial killers.
I still don't get the whole premise. "All crime is legal" No. Because why commit petty crime when there's risk of death? (irl, not that many people would be murderers, either, but whatever). In the movie, we see so many people murdered and gunned down, right? For example, if the Purge was real, and there weren't murderers everywhere, I would go to the shops and steal everything that I want. I know it sounds bad, but come on. Free stuff. Anyway, because there are so many killers in this movie (again, unrealistic) I definitely wouldn't do that because I'm probably gonna get killed. Is a nice shirt and a kilogram of chocolate really worth that risk? In this way, the movie has kinda messed up. It's not "all crime is legal" its "murder time for 12 hours lol good luck poor people". Because of the fact that you *_literally can't do anything else because of the risk of death._*
QueeenBee there is a lot of mind-fucked people in this planet, and definitely, if they have the chance to kill, torture or steal without punishment, trust me they would do it.
Tbh I imagine the purge would be more like more violent black Friday shopping, except with them just looting stores, with murders sprinkled into the mix
I can't believe there wasn't a sin taken off from him doing the smartest thing I have seen in a horror/scary movie. He went around and put a round in each of them to make sure they were dead. They never do that shit
WildCandy I see it like this: There would be people murdering fellow employees or bosses on that night, Female celebrity raping's, Vigilantes, a lot of drug deals going on and school getting trashedWhat would I do? I would raid Gamestop
I love how the movie's intention was to show just how secretly evil humans allegedly are and that only strict laws and punishment are what holds us from constantly going around murdering everyone, meanwhile everyone here in the comments are like "hey man, I'd just steal an iPhone"
if the rules are like the 1st and 2nd purge the people with that idea would have a hell of a time because they are *untouchable* just like the triage van sure you can try to attack them but the are *off limits* ....so you would have to have a lot of fire power to get through a lot of well armed people protecting them but if the rules are like in the 3rd purge movie where the creators of the purge and higher powered people is also allowed to be targeted/killed then the chances are better but be prepared to expect them to be heavily protected just like in the movie you would either need to get very lucky ...have a crap load of fire power or a lot of friends to help you to have even a small chance to succeed
Even if someone did kill the person who approved the law it wouldn't suddenly go away the government would still have to appeal the law for it to go away.
@@astrom8674 Did you ever you know consider taking down the whole government in a civil war which would be aided by the European countries which would certainly not be allies with an America that has a purge.
@@austinblackburn8095 Yeah I did but I was just responding to the original comment which suggested killing one person not the whole government, even though destroying the government would get rid of the purge.
If the purge concludes at 7:00 am, and crime becomes illegal again, what happens if you fatally wound someone at 6:59, but they aren't fully dead until 7:01? Is it illegal then, or not? [Ding!!] If ALL crime is legal, then what, exactly, is the point of "locking down"? Couldn't someone just steal a powerful construction or demolition vehicle, say, a bulldozer, and crash it through your house? [Ding!!] And then there's people with access to explosives! Why is anything still standing? [Ding!!] Also, wouldn't the addition of panic rooms to the rich people's houses, which happens in the real world, where no Purging occurs, be a good idea in a world where it does? But that's been done already...! [Ding!!] Considering the family is rich, wouldn't it make sense for them to hire armed guards? Like, ones that aren't paid till midday the day after the Purge (just to be sure)? [Ding!!] Also, wouldn't you think the family would be able to afford combat training for all its members, from firearms to Krav Maga, you know, in case shit like what happens in the movie happens... which it obviously did...? [Ding!!] And why are there no deathtraps around the outside of the house? Surely it'd be legal if you only use them on Purge night? If they'd installed concealed flamethrowers on the porch or retractable spikes on the lawn or something, then the assholes that want to kill them would either die very quickly and painfully or at least be incapacitated... but, we need a plot. [Ding!!] Also, they have plenty of real expensive security systems, but no backup generator in case the power's cut? [Ding!!] They say that unemployment is at 1%, crime is near zero, and there's next to no violence, yet if every crime that occurs during the Purge is legal, then wouldn't gangs, who can reasonably protect themselves outside make massive drug deals and shipments and what-have-you? The US should be swimming in drugs! [Ding!!] Also, wouldn't this just increase the number of protection rackets nationwide exponentially in less-well-off areas? [Ding!!] And one more thing: Does the Purge's lawlessness include acts that could threaten national security, like hacking into the Pentagon? If so, then why hasn't the country collapsed from home-grown terrorism yet? [Ding!!] Also, what about hospitals? Are they like special safe-zones, or something? Surely if you wanna kill someone, all you need do is target a place full of people who can't run away, right? Not to mention if there's some evil asshole doctor like Harold Shipman? Or if you're gonna be in over Purge night, do you have to draw-up a will the day before? Not really a sin, but it makes me wonder how there's anyone over 30 in the country left alive? And police stations. If everything's legal for a night, does burning down a police station and killing cops count? If there are no police, or simply not enough of them around, how would they stop the crimes the next morning? Same goes for fire stations. Destroy enough of those while you're allowed to, and whole blocks could burn to the ground. In fact, these are sins, as the America we are introduced to at the start of the movie is not the America that would exist if Purge night were a reality. [Ding, ding, ding!!] Incidentally, all the other implications of the Purge beyond being allowed to kill people would have made for a more interesting movie. [Ding!!]
WWEezie1 I never said anything about nukes. Conventional explosives, both high and low, that are available to civilians, like mining and demolition companies could reasonably, no, obviously, take down buildings. Incidentally, does CAPS LOCK count as a weapon?
Awesome. I'm the asshole sharpening the machete. Bit of backstory. 14 day shoot. Was hired as BG, get there and the director said he wanted to have me the neighbor have more of a story but it wasn't in the budget. The machete and grinder are real. Just off frame is a PA saying "get more sparks, get more sparks." Which is problematic because this thing is half on the grass and half on the pavement, not stable. Shoulda gotten stunt pay for this as it was mildly dangerous. Was a bit cheesed about that. That was the 1st day of the shoot. I worked it again in the last day, 14th day. Didn't do much but it was fun. The house they used was absolutely huge. 20,000 square ft. Master bedroom had his and hers bathrooms that were each bigger than most peoples master bedrooms. The scale of the thing was actually a little disconcerting. Fun to visit but living there would be weird. A year or so later I get a random call and they ask if they can re-use the footage for Purge 2. I say yes and they paid me 750 bucks. So basically I got the stunt pay out of the blue. The kids kept to themselves. Ethan and Lena were cool. Director and the rest of the crew were cool as well. Fun little Purge story
Part of my soul really dosemt belive you and you are just saying this shit to be ow look im a brown round guy in a movie. But since I have no proof or you I'll just be nice about it
Wierd Commenter nah I think there'd be that one person hiding a gun and when all the stock runs out and he doesn't have what he wants, he'll kill the first person he finds with what he wants.
Wierd Commenter nah my friends dad owns a gun shop.i would grab a gun before the purge, run to a video game store ans when the purge starts just grab Everything and shoot anyone who gets in my way.
You missed one. Why is Purge Night relevant? People wouldn't murder, they'd steal. Like hardback books and crap. Expensive stuff, TV's and whatever. Like very few murders
Just Your Average Stressed Desserts Hellllll no. I'm stealing the Steam cards at CVS. And 2-liters of Sprite. All the Purgers would go for the pills and cigarettes. The Steam cards would be totally mine!
I still love that the girl was saving her boyfriend, after he was almost killed, TRYING TO KILL HER FATHER. I MEAN SHE REALLY HAS HER PRIORITIES IN LINE.
And how she was so dumb that her boyfriend said he was going to "talk to" her dad and she believed him. Seriously why couldn't she have been killed by the end of the movie?
The Purge looks like a scary movie, but the story is just weird. If you were a mom with a husband and kids, and you weren't planning on killing anyone, why don't you fking fly a plane to Canada or some place and keep your family safe? The family in the movie looks rich enough to buy some plane tickets!!
Well I'd guess the demand for flights would be so high that the tickets would be unaffordable and there wouldn't be any room left for those who missed out! I'd imagine this purge would provoke an exodus of millions of people and only a certain amount of people could be able to get out. This family had their own home defense system and probably thought it would be enough to keep them safe! You only need to use your imagination to fill in these plot holes!
ElaborateTiger Well, yeah, good point. But if The Purge were real I would fly to another country like 2 months before The Purge just to be safe and most people don't fly that early I bet. Better yet, me and my family would probably just MOVE to another country considering that my dad works at an airport.
Oblox When something as bad as the Purge is about to occur; I'd imagine people would want to leave as early as possible so the prices could already be huge even 2 months before! Besides people have jobs to do and probably can't afford to leave for multiple months without losing their job. Your best bet would probably have to be living abroad all together; since this Purge is a clear violation of human rights; you could probably seek asylum somewhere and hope to make a living abroad.
you missed the part were the girl was in her school uniform the purge takes place on a school day the dad probably thought it best to not have his daughter miss out on school, and after seeing how he acts in the movie he seems serious about his daughter education he wouldn't want her to miss out on days weeks or months of school every year.
What got me about this movie was that there were apparently ZERO doors with locks inside the house. I mean, what house doesn't have at least one internal door (say, a bedroom or bathroom door) that locks, and yet this guy designs security systems and not a single internal door has a lock on it? I mean, I'm surprised they don't have a panic room, but is even ONE door with a lock too much to ask?!
How would emergency personnel respond instantly after the purge? Do they wait out the night at work, or do they go to work 30min before work, but still during the purge? SO MANY QUESTIONS
lets be honest there would be buildings destroyed. bodies everywhere. crashed cars and general wreckage all over the place it's bullshit to think that the country would just carry on the next day. it'd take at least a week to clean up.
"Awards for writing, softball, AND gymnastics?! This is an orgy of evidence that perfect daughter is perfect." Actually, she just lives in the USA. We give awards out by the thousands.
You know what just hit me? There have to be some members of emergency services that say "Fuck this" and try and help people during the Purge anyway. A cop (or a few cops) roaming the streets with SWAT gear looking to stop murders; an EMT(s) or firefighter(s) with hopefully reinforced vehicles and a couple guns on-hand going around doing what they do. Hell, this sort of situation can even be played for a little dark humor; an incredibly dedicated security guard or clerk, sitting in front of a store or bank entrance with a shotgun, a metal bat, miscellaneous foodstuffs and a beer. Why don't we get a movie about those people? Why AREN'T we getting a movie about those people?
I just finished reading War Hospital about real life doctors trying to help people in the Bosnian War, this should be a movie on its own, but I am totally on board with the idea for the purge, if the purge was not so ridiculous.
Things Id do during the purge: Go to the store and shake up every can of pop I could find; Go to the store and take multiple samples of food; Tear off all the mattress tags at Bed Bath & Beyond; Jump on all the beds at Bed Bath & Beyond; And finally I would wear underwear on the outside of my pants.
I have two to add to the sin list "Why the hell didn't they hire the homeless guy FOR PROTECTION against the next purge because he already proved that he is freaking badass and basically saved the family (except for the dad) They can offer him a home and job" "Why the hell did they tell the kid what the password was for the house defense system."
Zachary- Sorry my memory of that movie is a little rusty because I haven't watched it for a while Wade- I have no idea where he is, last time I talked with him, he was upset that he wasn't in the new MK X demo or there hasn't been a trailer of him yet
The wiki states that ohter countries are shit in the purge series. And flying to ohter countries is ban 1 month before the purge and it is way expensive. Joke i wasted your time.
I think that isn't a panic room. It's just a room with a few monitors and a gun safe. The normal door and the interior design would not be the best choice for a panic room.
would of been a very short movie ....they all go in the room no reason for anyone to bother them purge finishes they get out ....great 10 minute movie lol
Millie T because this is a fucking bad movie with a fucking bad plot . It's not real and they made sure to put enough sequences to make it fake . concept is good, execution is horrendous.
they say purging is patriotic, so i guess you’d just get shamed a lot for it. maybe it’s illegal to leave the country, idk.but who gives a shit if it’s unpatriotic, if it was possible, i’d be GONE
I have only two questions: 1 - What did they tie the chains to? (the barricades were flat metal panels) ; 2 - Am I supposed to believe that they did this chain yank thing on EVERY SINGLE window on that house simultaneously?
That's actually a really good point. Why don't the rich families just get a plane to keep them in the air for 12 hours? It's not like a purger could shoot them down.
DId anyone think it was stupid that the Mom didn't kill the neighbors that killed her husband and tried to kill her family? Like after the purge is over they are just going to go back to being neighbors and no one is going to hold grudges? LOL
It's not strange. In this movie all the characters, all of them act in strange and stupid ways. I think actually that they all scaped from some sort of Asylum, so...
if anybody watched the darksouls 2 trailer and played the game then this is obvious that they lie i mean the darksouls 2 trailer looks like a new witcher game compared to what the game is
I love how this movie just implies that people literally only have the rule of law keeping them from turning into murderous psychopaths, like if you had the chance to get away with any crime would you either rob a bank, steal as much shit as you could, or just murder a homeless guy for literally no gain? Most normal people would probably pick the first two as again they have nothing to gain from murder unless it's someone they have serious issues with, most people aren't just going to be bloodthirsty lunatics and even then, those people would most likely not have the patience to hold out for an entire year and would likely commit the crime before then. Also, disregarding the rest of the series that "cleansing us of our hatred" line near the end is way too cultish for me, it sounds too forced and comes off as "Sudden movie villain trying too hard to be scary" then again this could probably be said for the entire movie as the villains come off way more cult like than they really need to, the stupid masks and the blonde guy trying to act like some eloquent cult leader, it was something you see once and think "wow that's pretty terrifying" then you realize it seems kinda forced. Also this is a yearly event, she's just gonna ignore that her neighbors will probably try to kill her next year?
If murdering became the norm, the thing people would invest in with their money would be to buy, make better shelters, maybe hidden, or highly fortified, or gun forts and turrets or a bunker or all of the above, and a few days before Purge they would isolate themselves, as no one could trust the other on this day, and barring heavy artillery or very powerful explosives they would be invulnerable in their nifty forts. Maybe they would have these forts for rent, or people would make ones in their basements, or backyards, maybe some would have secret bases in secluded locations. No one in their right mind would EVER choose to live in modern residences on that day, as they are built for comfort, convenience and cost effective. People with lesser income would try their best to make their own, a thick wall or two of concrete could be good enough for small arms, give them shutters and a generators and they could hold for weeks, one day is nothing. Basically, people who don't want to die, which includes most living beings in general would rather play defence than play with their killing urges. Only the very poor and homeless would suffer, but when you think about it, they could very easily make a community shelter or use all their building skills to make good hiding places etc. Only edgy cringy adolescents, and already criminals could want to roam the streets at their own risk, they would also be the ones to die faster. Approaching any shelters armed would mean certain death. Unfortunately, no one in this movie has brains, or any idea what humans are.
Fortress for rent? How do you know the guy renting it to you didn't sabotage it so it's actually a death trap or else leave a back door for he and his friends to come kill you during the purge?
Juddson Ivines Why the fuck would the guy rending building to people kill his tendants? Are you fucking stupid? Then he would have to find a new one as well as being out of money. On top of no one wanting to rent his building ever again because people who know what he did. Then he would be broke..It's not even human nature to "want" to kill people moron.
I would risk going out in the open to loot places. Granted I'd never go alone and bring as many people I could trust i.e. friends, family then work my way down to professional hired guns and ect. But I totally agree there'd be people building forts and play a night of defense tower. And there'd be a never ending amount of heroic/morally driven personality type of people banning together to hunt and save people who are being hunted like the stranger in the movie.
I dont think you can use explosives tho, idk how the american gun system works but something tells me heavy artillery is over grade 4. Since its clearly stated in the emergency broadcast that you can use weapons below grade 4
you better hope no one happens to be purging near there including ppl you may know at the school that may not like you for even a small reason because you may be able to steal the stuff but you probably wont go much further without a purger seeing you
My faith in humanity may have just improved a little bit, oh and in gta online you can't break in to someone's house and murder them with an ar15, just saying.
Exactly. People usually don't randomly kill each other for no reason. Robbery might be hard though, especially if many people try to rob the same place.
Psychotic Productions I figured that as well. Those people in the beginning were complete psychopaths, even though they seemed to be in the same economic class as the family, I doubt they would honestly wait for Purge night to go around killing people.
***** Then you my friend are quite ignorant. One of the biggest reasons things like theft occur is opportunity. If someone sees a chance to take something and they honestly think they won't get caught, they'll take it, and that's just a basic principle of retail. Trying working in customer service for all of 5 minutes. One of the only things our moral compass naturally guides us away from is physically injuring someone else simply because of the mental issues that come with actually seeing a being like yourself in pain, which is one of the main reasons sociopaths will murder, because they can't make that some connection and one of the only thing that does stop a sociopath is, you guessed it, rules and regulations set by society.
***** Don't remember the title or number, but Rick & Morty travel to this planet of cat like people and legit say that they're having a puge go on and join in.
This is one of the stupidest premises I've ever seen. No, really, would murder be the first thing in everybody's mind for the night when "every crime allowed"? For some - maybe, but many more would just burgle, loot all the shops in the area (and who would want to open them again, if year later they are likely to be looted again), trash cars and set things on fire. What are the perspectives of just about any business? If some disgruntled accountant wanted to vent, he would probably use this night to make his boss bankrupt and get away with it or at least to trash his office, rather than to kill some random homeless guy. And what about terrorist who would blow strategic facilities? Cyber crimes? Bringing down banking system of the whole country would be fun. Recovering from damages after one such night would take YEARS let alone vendetta that families and friends of victims would start, because it's stupid to think that everybody would be ok with their children being killed or wife being raped just because it is legal that day
That's what I thought! Some people might intend on doing other activities rather than murder. They can bomb skyscrapers, start a enormous forest fire that would burn all night, hack into a international bank's account system. However, I don't think there would be revenges taken on their relatives' death. I mean, if you care about your son/daughter you probably would want them to be staying by your side. You wouldn't want them to wander on the streets on a purge night would you? Unless your whole family were already spotted by your neighbors, then you would die along with your son/daughter. Purge nights are only one per year, so you will most likely to plan the next victim of yours next year right after the night ends. You've got all year to plan that shit, nothing could go wrong, literally. Nobody can stop you from killing that bitch on the purge, or all the family members of him/her, for that matters.
YOU! I would fear you. Cause really...what's the point of stealing from someone's house when you could just steal from stores and get brand new items instead? New games coming out? I'll just wait until the purge and get it for free. food restaurants would be the only places to not suffer because you'd think they would be smart enough to be closed for a week prior so that they can sell the remaining food and not have any new shipments until the purge is done. :p it just doesn't make sense. I'm not a blood thirsty murderer, it's just not moral but all of a sudden on this day, everyone is? Hell yeah I'd be a thief but damn, taking someone's life?
I think the premise could be expanded on to make more sense. like there would be no prisons, or trial system in this world if you where caught committing a crime your dead. so people waiting until purge night would make more sense. It would be a nice touch if in the next movie they mention special Purge sales in stores so people would have less to steal, and wouldn't have to risk going out to loot with other murderers.
Why would a house with a lockdown system have the power be able to be cut from the outside?

WingChroniam or maybe they just got an opinion and want to comment
Because the premise of this movie is stupid to begin with, and they needed a contrived way for the film to get more tense.
So...How did the rich neighbors never invite the people they hate to their purge party to kill them...it's like obvious... this family they hate they could have killed ages ago...Also none of these neighbors hated each other either? Hard to believe...In this world the Mortuary business must be more powerful then Gasoline, Oil and Nuclear Arms...

1. Maybe they were trying to do that but many people would have that same idea and pretty much make a blockade and prevent any travel from taking place. So if they left too late, they were stuck in the US.
2. If they did manage to get out of the country before the inevitable blockade happened, it would ruin the idea of the movie because you're just escaping the situation instead of facing it. It's a horror/thriller film for a reason.
I'm giving cinemasins one sin for not sinning the fact that the mother let her neighbors live... I mean, the purge happens every year, what makes she think that her neighbors won't try to kill her again next year?

Plus the neighborhoods hatred of the family makes NO SENSE! They keep making a big deal about how they “became rich off of the neighborhood” but these guys were literally selling the security system the neighbors used to stay safe during the purge.

And they themselves were not killing those who didn't buy it, it was fucking retarded hatred.

Yeah, but as with anything this channel reviews, the movies try to patch the holes or something otherwise the movie turns ten minutes long. Same with the bad guy or evil entity; 'you were right behind him and could have taken him out right then but are choosing not to so the main character can take you out later' bits.
It's also not like they were sold shotty systems, this makes them sound like they were being sold lemons
it was quite stupid. Some ppl cant see other prosper in their victories (im aware i cant spell)
The whole concept of this movie is utterly mind numbing. All crime is legal for 12 hours. Ok, not a terrible starting concept. People then turn to killing homeless people. WHY!? Isn't there a bank nearby or something. You have all year to plan, get explosives, etc. why on earth would you possibly waste time on people whose death offers you nothing to gain. This movie could have been phenomenal if it was about people who in the 12 hours picked good targets to set them up financially until the next purge. They wouldn't have to work a day other than planning for their next purge. It could have been a great heist movie about people planning and capitalizing on the 12 hours, and even betraying each other because, hell why not? It could have been a smart, crime thriller but instead they made it about a family with the dumbest son on the face of the earth.
True, first when i heard the concept of the film i was actually excited but well, critics happened lol
Even on top of the heist part, the second stage of the movie could be them escaping the banks and avoiding the murdering people walking the streets. I'd go see that if it was the purge, it as a horror movie is just stupid.
I would probably enjoy watching that movie. If this movie was right and the law was the only thing stopping us from murdering each other, then we'd never have survived long enough to make those laws in the first place.
Some people just want to see the world burn.
Even the starting concept makes no sense. How does making crime legal once a year stop it for the rest of the year? And how does that kind of legislation get passed? Or cause a massive drop in unemployment? This movie was doomed to a lapse in logic from the start. It also doesn't help that they chose Michael Bay as one of the producers.
Those kids, especially the son, were the worst part of the movie.

Also wouldn't people this rich take a holiday to another country for this one day?

How many people would be willing to storm armored, fortified houses with clear fields of fire just to kill some random guy and how many of them would be alive and willing the second year?

They'd be leaving the house unguarded. EVERYTHING stolen.
Private security contractors would betray you for easy money. Remember, all crime is legal.
That'd make too much sense.
Again, the neighbors would just betray you.

actually the main character died.

I mean think about it. On this one night, you and some buddies could make off with a fucking BANK VAULT and the cops wouldn't give a shit. Makes way more sense then just killing some guy you don't like that much and being forced to attend his boring ass funeral.
It's to add fear
They drop a line in the second movie about how the banks move the money (where I don't know but that must mean they can't do anything with cash for at least a week before and after the purge). I agree though the whole thing with it being mostly murder people do makes no sense, maybe I just have a high opinion on people but I doubt that many would jump straight to murder. Hell it seems the ones who based a new religion around it are the rich who pray before they kill someone, and hire people to kidnap folks for them to kill. Seriously with the stuff in the second movie it made it seem more like Hostel then what the film should be aiming towards, also sucks how in the second film we don't get any fan service seeing the rich people watching other rich people purge getting murdered. I mean fuck the least they could do is have them lined up and executed since they are such horrible people but instead they let them get away. Still I liked the second film more then the first cause the second was just a Punisher film but they never call the main guy Frank Castle.
And rape.. In this day and age it should be more common on Purge Night
Njjar Malak
I assume that is why they have the stuff about "cleansing one's soul" via purging. Try to rationalize how they are doing the right thing by killing. If you notice though the people doing the most killing tend to be wealthy. I mean they pay folks to round up the lower class to hunt and pay the families of people so they can kill them in the safety of their homes.

BreachingTBone oh god.... do people actually do that??? o__O
Why don't people just steal things. I'd steal a MacBook Air 13inch. Or pro. Seriously, why do people just kill random people.
What I learned from this movie 97.9% of people want to kill rather than steal money from a bank.
I think they move all money from banks and stuff before the purge, but I get your point. If the purge really did exist, people wouldn't just go on a murder spree. It's not just the law that stops people from killing others. It's morally wrong and most people wouldn't do it even if they got a prize for it. And since it's so morally wrong the people who DO want to kill would still be discrete about it so they wouldn't get cut out from society once the purge ends. I mean, would you be happy to have a one-on-one lunch with your neighbor if they killed during the purge? I don't think so. And finally, murderers who kill for fun often get a kick out of it being wrong. It wouldn't be as satisfying to kill if it was legal. And psychopaths don't follow rules like this.
So basically, if this was realistic stealing and petty crimes would increase during the purge, but murders would be happening all year round at the same rate as now.
All banks and big businesses would have heavy security in place so realistically it would mostly be small businesses people would steal from. But yeah, I think there would be a lot more theft and petty crime than murder.
Jasmine Haskins yeah cause the banks would just leave the money there 🤦🏻♂️ how stupid are you
AM the murder rate wouldn’t change on the day of the purge? How stupid are you for real man cmon 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
Kerry Rose small businesses would just leave their money where it always is? You make absolutely no sense, everyone with money is taking it but nope the small businesses are a different breed. lol 😂 what goes on in your head where you would even think that makes sense 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️

Groovy Movies I woke up on Christmas screaming HAPPY NEW YEARS!

+Hawkward_Akuma who tf wakes up on new years go to sleep
The first thing wrong with the movie is the premise that it would decrease crime. It would actually have the opposite effect, because people don't have the capacity to delay gratification, especially not for a year. And once people got a taste of breaking the law without negative consequences, they wouldn't be able to stop.
Look at children. If you give in to their begging for candy in the checkout line even once, they will NEVER stop begging. You'll have to say no dozens of times and endure more intense begging and whining to get it to stop. Most parents these days don't have the emotional stamina, because they themselves cannot delay gratification.
It would also break society down. Just because an action is illegal one day, then legal the next, then illegal the next day, doesn't change the fact that it's just plain WRONG EVERY day. If the makers of these movies had any clue about psychology or morals, they could make movies that would make people think more deeply.
TobyCat This one especially! Think about it: being rude is legal 24/7, 365, but most of us don't put up with disrespect because of that. How is something as emotionally charged as murder going to be any better?
Sure, okay, I know I can't legally get revenge, but if one of my neighbors killed my dog or stole something of mine during the purge, do you think I'm gonna forget that just because it's not illegal? No! I'm going to hold it over their heads forever, or try to sneakily get revenge sometime during the rest of the year even though it's illegal, or stock up on explosives and blow up their house in that precious time just before the purge officially starts.
And what, are my other neighbors gonna report me for bending the rules to get back at the local dog killer?
What is disappointing is that this could have been a pretty cool, thought-provoking story if the creators had spent some time actually thinking things through. Seeing all the perfectly innocent yet illegal things people want to do could be fun, like buying a ton of weed or stealing books or opening a restaurant without a permit. Examining how people rank certain crimes according to their own moral compass instead of fear of the law. Watching people clean up and go about their daily lives after the purge. How do you just get on the elevator with Steve from accounting when you saw him raping a kid at sunrise just a few hours ago? Or sit next to Becky at lunch when she was ready to fight you to the death over your great grandma's jewelry?
There have to be a lot of people with PTSD now, is it addressed, or does society try to sweep that under the rug until 75% of the population has a complete nervous breakdown? There have to be some good Samaritans out there building fortified homeless shelters by now. Do religious institutions see more or less attacks than others? What happens when half the banks in the city have been robbed of all their cash?!
And even though we're told that somehow, this has actually decreased crime the rest of the year, has everyday law enforcement changed in this other world? Aren't there still corrupt cops arresting innocent people just to fill their quota? If I had to include that ridiculous aspect of the story, I'd see crime dipping down a little the first few years, until more and more people are getting used to the idea of murder being enjoyable and cleansing. Then suddenly homicide rates spike dramatically across the country, as now people have a real blood lust and can't wait for one day a year. Do they start have more and more purge nights a year to make up for it, until society just falls apart?
I guess a little bit of classism was addressed, what with the homeless being seen as deserving targets and the wealthy family thinking their kind is supposed to be above this even while their own neighbors plotted against them. But I feel this could have gone further; what do people think about the fact that this policy literally rewards the most violent people and punishes the most gentle? Don't most governments like their people docile and obedient? Maybe we have a moment with the lawmaker who originally proposed it, and it turns out their goal was for all the most violent people to end up killing each other, but they realize it failed horribly because, duh, people who like killing made friends with the other people who like killing, and they formed their own little groups to kill people who can't/won't fight back!
Wow, sorry for the long response! I guess once I read your comments I saw an opportunity to cleanse myself of my hatred for this movie... Hey wait a second!
***** Yeah, but as we see in this movie, the bad people aren't really killing each other. They're teaming up to hunt down homeless veterans and terrorize suburbanites. That's why this total anarchy thing is such a flawed idea, even within the movie. I'd think that if you really want bad people to only kill other bad people, you should lock them up in an arena, gladiator style. Not give them free license to kill any of the thousands of innocent people who can't defend themselves.
***** Haha, it's cool. (Yeah, looks like quite a few people have had the gladiator idea before us...)
13gothMoth No need to apologize. You basically addressed what plagued my mind on the whole movie, basically. I am surprised with all crime being legal, they didn't have a sequence where people in Washington D.C. just straight up light the entire city on fire with the politicians in the burn pile... :\
Also, the movie didn't really touch the opposing opinion of the purge. A separate faction of sorts that thought this law of the purge was completely and utterly ridiculous and *quite literally* insane... Surprised the international community didn't have a say in this either since this law seems to also be a huge human rights violation in general.

I still don't get the whole premise. "All crime is legal" No. Because why commit petty crime when there's risk of death? (irl, not that many people would be murderers, either, but whatever).
In the movie, we see so many people murdered and gunned down, right? For example, if the Purge was real, and there weren't murderers everywhere, I would go to the shops and steal everything that I want. I know it sounds bad, but come on. Free stuff. Anyway, because there are so many killers in this movie (again, unrealistic) I definitely wouldn't do that because I'm probably gonna get killed. Is a nice shirt and a kilogram of chocolate really worth that risk? In this way, the movie has kinda messed up. It's not "all crime is legal" its "murder time for 12 hours lol good luck poor people". Because of the fact that you *_literally can't do anything else because of the risk of death._*
QueeenBeee it's a dystopian world
yeah, my dude, i get you.
but my point still stands. you cant do anything for risk of death.
Literally ANY other day would be a better day for a murder. Because they wouldn't expect it.

I honestly would quit if my Coworker tried to kill me! 😱
Bill:“ Yea Yea, no worries mate“
Gets murded next purge anyway…
If the purge concludes at 7:00 am, and crime becomes illegal again, what happens if you fatally wound someone at 6:59, but they aren't fully dead until 7:01? Is it illegal then, or not? [Ding!!]
If ALL crime is legal, then what, exactly, is the point of "locking down"? Couldn't someone just steal a powerful construction or demolition vehicle, say, a bulldozer, and crash it through your house? [Ding!!]
And then there's people with access to explosives! Why is anything still standing? [Ding!!]
Also, wouldn't the addition of panic rooms to the rich people's houses, which happens in the real world, where no Purging occurs, be a good idea in a world where it does? But that's been done already...! [Ding!!]
Considering the family is rich, wouldn't it make sense for them to hire armed guards? Like, ones that aren't paid till midday the day after the Purge (just to be sure)? [Ding!!]
Also, wouldn't you think the family would be able to afford combat training for all its members, from firearms to Krav Maga, you know, in case shit like what happens in the movie happens... which it obviously did...? [Ding!!]
And why are there no deathtraps around the outside of the house? Surely it'd be legal if you only use them on Purge night? If they'd installed concealed flamethrowers on the porch or retractable spikes on the lawn or something, then the assholes that want to kill them would either die very quickly and painfully or at least be incapacitated... but, we need a plot. [Ding!!]
Also, they have plenty of real expensive security systems, but no backup generator in case the power's cut? [Ding!!]
They say that unemployment is at 1%, crime is near zero, and there's next to no violence, yet if every crime that occurs during the Purge is legal, then wouldn't gangs, who can reasonably protect themselves outside make massive drug deals and shipments and what-have-you? The US should be swimming in drugs! [Ding!!]
Also, wouldn't this just increase the number of protection rackets nationwide exponentially in less-well-off areas? [Ding!!]
And one more thing: Does the Purge's lawlessness include acts that could threaten national security, like hacking into the Pentagon? If so, then why hasn't the country collapsed from home-grown terrorism yet? [Ding!!]
Also, what about hospitals? Are they like special safe-zones, or something? Surely if you wanna kill someone, all you need do is target a place full of people who can't run away, right? Not to mention if there's some evil asshole doctor like Harold Shipman? Or if you're gonna be in over Purge night, do you have to draw-up a will the day before? Not really a sin, but it makes me wonder how there's anyone over 30 in the country left alive?
And police stations. If everything's legal for a night, does burning down a police station and killing cops count? If there are no police, or simply not enough of them around, how would they stop the crimes the next morning? Same goes for fire stations. Destroy enough of those while you're allowed to, and whole blocks could burn to the ground. In fact, these are sins, as the America we are introduced to at the start of the movie is not the America that would exist if Purge night were a reality. [Ding, ding, ding!!]
Incidentally, all the other implications of the Purge beyond being allowed to kill people would have made for a more interesting movie. [Ding!!]
CLASS FOIR WEAPONS AND LOWER NO ONE HERD THAT IN THE ACUAL MOVIE SOOOO NO CANT NUKE THE CITY AND SHIT
WWEezie1 I never said anything about nukes. Conventional explosives, both high and low, that are available to civilians, like mining and demolition companies could reasonably, no, obviously, take down buildings.
Incidentally, does CAPS LOCK count as a weapon?
Ur second sin is the most stupidest fucking thing I read today
BeastJeffrey Your comment is ironic to anyone with decent grammar.
I never thought of that. I haven't watched the purge yet but it seems stupid so idk if I was wanna watch it lol.
Me during the Purge...
*Drives 1Mph over the speed limit*
...your allowed to go 5mph over it...
Lolcake Put In America? Or UK? I'm from the UK
Im in Australia but I thought u could go over it by 5mph universally.
My god, you're an animal!
Lolcake Put In my state in the U.S., the police don't bother you unless you go above 10 mph over the speed limit.
Awesome. I'm the asshole sharpening the machete. Bit of backstory. 14 day shoot. Was hired as BG, get there and the director said he wanted to have me the neighbor have more of a story but it wasn't in the budget. The machete and grinder are real. Just off frame is a PA saying "get more sparks, get more sparks." Which is problematic because this thing is half on the grass and half on the pavement, not stable. Shoulda gotten stunt pay for this as it was mildly dangerous. Was a bit cheesed about that. That was the 1st day of the shoot. I worked it again in the last day, 14th day. Didn't do much but it was fun. The house they used was absolutely huge. 20,000 square ft. Master bedroom had his and hers bathrooms that were each bigger than most peoples master bedrooms. The scale of the thing was actually a little disconcerting. Fun to visit but living there would be weird. A year or so later I get a random call and they ask if they can re-use the footage for Purge 2. I say yes and they paid me 750 bucks. So basically I got the stunt pay out of the blue. The kids kept to themselves. Ethan and Lena were cool. Director and the rest of the crew were cool as well. Fun little Purge story
That is fucking awsome and hilarious
That's so cool!
Part of my soul really dosemt belive you and you are just saying this shit to be ow look im a brown round guy in a movie. But since I have no proof or you I'll just be nice about it
Great behind the scenes story - thanks for sharing. 👍 You did a good job with the machete grinder, BTW. That thing looked dangerous as hell.
Very sharp! 👍

Hey the black guy actually lived through this movie!
Kai and kory Chameleonpower yay
But the black guy was homeless, so it's still racist.
Did not realize that until I saw your comment lol

OPEN UP ITS THE FBI
Nathen Hutchison, wrong, its not racist.
Realistic Purge - A bunch of people run into Apple Stores looting as many iPhones and cuz of morality, no one dies
Wierd Commenter nah I think there'd be that one person hiding a gun and when all the stock runs out and he doesn't have what he wants, he'll kill the first person he finds with what he wants.
Wierd Commenter nah my friends dad owns a gun shop.i would grab a gun before the purge, run to a video game store ans when the purge starts just grab Everything and shoot anyone who gets in my way.
Moises Antonio Spot on
You missed one. Why is Purge Night relevant? People wouldn't murder, they'd steal. Like hardback books and crap. Expensive stuff, TV's and whatever. Like very few murders
I can see your point from a reader's standpoint, but I could never envision myself in my head going "Everything is legal! Steal the books!!" XD
***** That's what I would do, that and Starbucks. Like have you seen how expensive hardback books are? like $20!! That's too much, even for books.
Just Your Average Stressed Desserts Hellllll no. I'm stealing the Steam cards at CVS. And 2-liters of Sprite. All the Purgers would go for the pills and cigarettes. The Steam cards would be totally mine!
Ian Weston We should meet up during the Purge! We'd be like the best team ever
Just Your Average Stressed Desserts Only if you can scream loud.
"None of your business. Are you even in this family anymore?"
. Thats hilarious i really hate that kid
I still love that the girl was saving her boyfriend, after he was almost killed, TRYING TO KILL HER FATHER. I MEAN SHE REALLY HAS HER PRIORITIES IN LINE.
And how she was so dumb that her boyfriend said he was going to "talk to" her dad and she believed him. Seriously why couldn't she have been killed by the end of the movie?
And her dialouge. Its like directors think all teens are like that. The most rebellious thing ive ever done is eat unsalted fries.
Im so ashamed. :'/
DISHONOR ON YOU
DISHONOR ON YOUR FAMILY
DISHONOR ON YOUR COW
I wonder if I praise the sun enough if I can get Solaire to burn marks onto the film of this film.
if it was the purge I would stay up one second past my bedtime
Master Chef OHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!
That's too far
We've got a rebel!
Master Chef ooooooo bad ass
lol
The Purge looks like a scary movie, but the story is just weird. If you were a mom with a husband and kids, and you weren't planning on killing anyone, why don't you fking fly a plane to Canada or some place and keep your family safe? The family in the movie looks rich enough to buy some plane tickets!!
Well I'd guess the demand for flights would be so high that the tickets would be unaffordable and there wouldn't be any room left for those who missed out! I'd imagine this purge would provoke an exodus of millions of people and only a certain amount of people could be able to get out. This family had their own home defense system and probably thought it would be enough to keep them safe! You only need to use your imagination to fill in these plot holes!
ElaborateTiger Well, yeah, good point. But if The Purge were real I would fly to another country like 2 months before The Purge just to be safe and most people don't fly that early I bet. Better yet, me and my family would probably just MOVE to another country considering that my dad works at an airport.
Oblox
When something as bad as the Purge is about to occur; I'd imagine people would want to leave as early as possible so the prices could already be huge even 2 months before! Besides people have jobs to do and probably can't afford to leave for multiple months without losing their job. Your best bet would probably have to be living abroad all together; since this Purge is a clear violation of human rights; you could probably seek asylum somewhere and hope to make a living abroad.
ElaborateTiger I think I would rather lose my job then lose my life.
you missed the part were the girl was in her school uniform the purge takes place on a school day the dad probably thought it best to not have his daughter miss out on school, and after seeing how he acts in the movie he seems serious about his daughter education he wouldn't want her to miss out on days weeks or months of school every year.

I didn’t expect the black guy to survive
i did not expect that kid to be so stupid

Haha kind of yeah
@AMIA HARRIS get psyched!

@@zoemadison578 Such a stupid comment no cares about rates so stfu and piss off bot!

"Uh, stupid?"
"No, I'm Texas!"
"What's the difference?"
I did too as I was born and raised in Texas
As soon as the purge siren & announcement goes on, I'm definitely gonna pour pepsi into a coke glass
That's a sin.
You should lock your doors on the night of the purge.
@@uf3732 then I'll use the windows.
You fucking psychopath
Too far bro too far
What got me about this movie was that there were apparently ZERO doors with locks inside the house. I mean, what house doesn't have at least one internal door (say, a bedroom or bathroom door) that locks, and yet this guy designs security systems and not a single internal door has a lock on it? I mean, I'm surprised they don't have a panic room, but is even ONE door with a lock too much to ask?!
Maybe because it's not hard to destroy a standard internal door lock, if you have a heavy weapon or tool. Plus it slows down the plot :)
How would emergency personnel respond instantly after the purge? Do they wait out the night at work, or do they go to work 30min before work, but still during the purge? SO MANY QUESTIONS
It's their busy day of the year....
Christopher Erolin i think they are on standby
they would get like three days of
lets be honest there would be buildings destroyed. bodies everywhere. crashed cars and general wreckage all over the place it's bullshit to think that the country would just carry on the next day. it'd take at least a week to clean up.

***** Such is the American way!
You know what just hit me?
There have to be some members of emergency services that say "Fuck this" and try and help people during the Purge anyway.
A cop (or a few cops) roaming the streets with SWAT gear looking to stop murders; an EMT(s) or firefighter(s) with hopefully reinforced vehicles and a couple guns on-hand going around doing what they do. Hell, this sort of situation can even be played for a little dark humor; an incredibly dedicated security guard or clerk, sitting in front of a store or bank entrance with a shotgun, a metal bat, miscellaneous foodstuffs and a beer.
Why don't we get a movie about those people?
Why AREN'T we getting a movie about those people?
Might seem them in the next film coming out perhaps :)
I would enjoy seeing that.
I think they do the same than everyone else... in this shit
I just finished reading War Hospital about real life doctors trying to help people in the Bosnian War, this should be a movie on its own, but I am totally on board with the idea for the purge, if the purge was not so ridiculous.
They should have focused on the wider purge, not just one neighbourhood
If I was in the Purge I would wrestle a bear in Alabama. Yes, that is illegal.
Im Russian i visited usa and a played with a fuzzy big dog in Alabama
Lmfao
I’d go to Lexington and tie a crocodile to a fire hydrant
Self purge. Excellent
Things Id do during the purge: Go to the store and shake up every can of pop I could find; Go to the store and take multiple samples of food; Tear off all the mattress tags at Bed Bath & Beyond; Jump on all the beds at Bed Bath & Beyond; And finally I would wear underwear on the outside of my pants.
It was a joke...
You forgot poke holes in all the condoms with a needle then put them back.
pff Thats nothing. I would wear socks with sandals.
You....monster!!!
And tomorrow on the news you would be known as the most destructive person during the entire purge XD
I have two to add to the sin list
"Why the hell didn't they hire the homeless guy FOR PROTECTION against the next purge because he already proved that he is freaking badass and basically saved the family (except for the dad) They can offer him a home and job"
"Why the hell did they tell the kid what the password was for the house defense system."
Why didn't the house have its own generator for just an event like this? Any normal security system for an event like this would include a generator.
If you watched the movie, you would be able to tell that he saw his dad putting in the passcode, they didn't tell him
Hey loon guys, Sektor! Hey Sektor were is Cyrax or are you two fighting again?
Zachary- Sorry my memory of that movie is a little rusty because I haven't watched it for a while
Wade- I have no idea where he is, last time I talked with him, he was upset that he wasn't in the new MK X demo or there hasn't been a trailer of him yet
WADE WILSON I thought Cyrax died?
So... They just renamed Black Friday?

Kid blinks
Kid blinking in a horror movie cliché
Robbery and rape would be way more prevalent then murder.
because most people wouldnt be morally able to kill someone as easily as they would steal or rape
TexasGTO truth
Mostly option 2 (second one you said)
Why not get a plane ticket and fly to Europe or somewhere a few days before the Purge and just stay there until a few days after it's over?
The plot holes are killer ;/
The wiki states that ohter countries are shit in the purge series. And flying to ohter countries is ban 1 month before the purge and it is way expensive. Joke i wasted your time.
So they take a month long vacation, 1 month before the purge?
emp0rizzle no, during the purge
IAmIsabellaM forget about the purge. let's talk about you. cute ears.
This movie has a huge plot hole why didn’t they just go back into the panic room that’s what it was made for
I think that isn't a panic room. It's just a room with a few monitors and a gun safe. The normal door and the interior design would not be the best choice for a panic room.
would of been a very short movie ....they all go in the room no reason for anyone to bother them purge finishes they get out ....great 10 minute movie lol
and if you steal, you can be arrested for possession of stolen goods after the purge
@@alexmercier3964 we know that, but that's a huge foking plot HOLES
Just like the movie. Panic room? No the other one XD
This movie isn’t a purge,
It’s a break in
"For 12 hours, all crime is legal"
**Uses McDonald's WiFi on the parking lot**
Wait, that's illegal??? Shit, I'm a criminal and didn't even realize it. Sorry, mom and dad, I didn't mean to let you down.
Well that is completely being a Mad Lad....
why doesn't everyone just go on holiday at purge time
Millie T because this is a fucking bad movie with a fucking bad plot . It's not real and they made sure to put enough sequences to make it fake .
concept is good, execution is horrendous.
they say purging is patriotic, so i guess you’d just get shamed a lot for it. maybe it’s illegal to leave the country, idk.but who gives a shit if it’s unpatriotic, if it was possible, i’d be GONE
Millie T because it's worldwide
Which in turn would nullify the idea that ANY crime is legal... ;) Bad movie after all.
Because it's got a horrible and unrealistic storyline
If the Purge were real
Let's just take out the Kardashians.

2 - Am I supposed to believe that they did this chain yank thing on EVERY SINGLE window on that house simultaneously?

But... Restaurants cook / prepare the food? Unless you're a chef that's useless and if you are then you could do that at home anyway xD

Why didn't they just go on vacation that day? It's only in America right...
If it's the whole world they could go the other side of the world (China) and come back after 12 American hours before it starts in China

TheKeyser94 Hmmm? all i read was blah blah blah blah ima reply because i thing he cares blah blaaaaah
That's actually a really good point. Why don't the rich families just get a plane to keep them in the air for 12 hours? It's not like a purger could shoot them down.
If the purge was real I would eat 4 flinstone gummies
Dude youre crazy
DId anyone think it was stupid that the Mom didn't kill the neighbors that killed her husband and tried to kill her family? Like after the purge is over they are just going to go back to being neighbors and no one is going to hold grudges? LOL
"See you at the neighborhood barbecue!" with a smile and wave.
Curious about the thin line between murder and 'accidents happen' in this universe.
It's not strange. In this movie all the characters, all of them act in strange and stupid ways. I think actually that they all scaped from some sort of Asylum, so...
tan2422 it was honestly the most dissatisfying ending.
tan2422 I wouldn't kill them, I'd just beat the heck out of them until purge is over. That is the type of revenge I would do.
They didn't kill her husband, the leader of the purge group did.

Still a bad idea
Brian Griffin Woah, look over there! It's a joke, and it looks like it's flying right over your head!
I love how this movie just implies that people literally only have the rule of law keeping them from turning into murderous psychopaths, like if you had the chance to get away with any crime would you either rob a bank, steal as much shit as you could, or just murder a homeless guy for literally no gain? Most normal people would probably pick the first two as again they have nothing to gain from murder unless it's someone they have serious issues with, most people aren't just going to be bloodthirsty lunatics and even then, those people would most likely not have the patience to hold out for an entire year and would likely commit the crime before then.
Also, disregarding the rest of the series that "cleansing us of our hatred" line near the end is way too cultish for me, it sounds too forced and comes off as "Sudden movie villain trying too hard to be scary" then again this could probably be said for the entire movie as the villains come off way more cult like than they really need to, the stupid masks and the blonde guy trying to act like some eloquent cult leader, it was something you see once and think "wow that's pretty terrifying" then you realize it seems kinda forced.
Also this is a yearly event, she's just gonna ignore that her neighbors will probably try to kill her next year?
During the purge

OMG DUDEE HELL NOO

is this applehead humor? i dont get it
If murdering became the norm, the thing people would invest in with their money would be to buy, make better shelters, maybe hidden, or highly fortified, or gun forts and turrets or a bunker or all of the above, and a few days before Purge they would isolate themselves, as no one could trust the other on this day, and barring heavy artillery or very powerful explosives they would be invulnerable in their nifty forts. Maybe they would have these forts for rent, or people would make ones in their basements, or backyards, maybe some would have secret bases in secluded locations. No one in their right mind would EVER choose to live in modern residences on that day, as they are built for comfort, convenience and cost effective. People with lesser income would try their best to make their own, a thick wall or two of concrete could be good enough for small arms, give them shutters and a generators and they could hold for weeks, one day is nothing. Basically, people who don't want to die, which includes most living beings in general would rather play defence than play with their killing urges. Only the very poor and homeless would suffer, but when you think about it, they could very easily make a community shelter or use all their building skills to make good hiding places etc. Only edgy cringy adolescents, and already criminals could want to roam the streets at their own risk, they would also be the ones to die faster. Approaching any shelters armed would mean certain death.
Unfortunately, no one in this movie has brains, or any idea what humans are.
Fortress for rent? How do you know the guy renting it to you didn't sabotage it so it's actually a death trap or else leave a back door for he and his friends to come kill you during the purge?
Juddson Ivines Why the fuck would the guy rending building to people kill his tendants? Are you fucking stupid? Then he would have to find a new one as well as being out of money. On top of no one wanting to rent his building ever again because people who know what he did. Then he would be broke..It's not even human nature to "want" to kill people moron.
I would risk going out in the open to loot places. Granted I'd never go alone and bring as many people I could trust i.e. friends, family then work my way down to professional hired guns and ect. But I totally agree there'd be people building forts and play a night of defense tower. And there'd be a never ending amount of heroic/morally driven personality type of people banning together to hunt and save people who are being hunted like the stranger in the movie.
I dont think you can use explosives tho, idk how the american gun system works but something tells me heavy artillery is over grade 4. Since its clearly stated in the emergency broadcast that you can use weapons below grade 4
Or just leave the US
Why does the purge have to happen on my birthday?
Great my cake is going to be poisoned, happy birthday to me.

Dont worry, Ill make you another one! 🎂

But it looks so damn good.
same bro!
Love the "turn and walk into a stabbing" cliche
me at the purge: steals everything from my school book fair
you better hope no one happens to be purging near there including ppl you may know at the school that may not like you for even a small reason because you may be able to steal the stuff but you probably wont go much further without a purger seeing you
tbh I'd do the same lol I'm just a huge book nerd

For a not so amazing movie, it had one of the most satisfying scenes I have ever seen.
“Movie borrows it’s premise from a night of losing hockey in Vancouver” My favourite line
If all crime was legal for 12 hours I feel a lot more robberies would take place and not so much murder.
Exactly. People usually don't randomly kill each other for no reason.
Robbery might be hard though, especially if many people try to rob the same place.
Psychotic Productions
I figured that as well. Those people in the beginning were complete psychopaths, even though they seemed to be in the same economic class as the family, I doubt they would honestly wait for Purge night to go around killing people.
***** There'd probably be a lot of rape.
***** Then you my friend are quite ignorant.
One of the biggest reasons things like theft occur is opportunity. If someone sees a chance to take something and they honestly think they won't get caught, they'll take it, and that's just a basic principle of retail.
Trying working in customer service for all of 5 minutes.
One of the only things our moral compass naturally guides us away from is physically injuring someone else simply because of the mental issues that come with actually seeing a being like yourself in pain, which is one of the main reasons sociopaths will murder, because they can't make that some connection and one of the only thing that does stop a sociopath is, you guessed it, rules and regulations set by society.

This is one of the stupidest premises I've ever seen. No, really, would murder be the first thing in everybody's mind for the night when "every crime allowed"? For some - maybe, but many more would just burgle, loot all the shops in the area (and who would want to open them again, if year later they are likely to be looted again), trash cars and set things on fire. What are the perspectives of just about any business? If some disgruntled accountant wanted to vent, he would probably use this night to make his boss bankrupt and get away with it or at least to trash his office, rather than to kill some random homeless guy. And what about terrorist who would blow strategic facilities? Cyber crimes? Bringing down banking system of the whole country would be fun. Recovering from damages after one such night would take YEARS let alone vendetta that families and friends of victims would start, because it's stupid to think that everybody would be ok with their children being killed or wife being raped just because it is legal that day
That's what I thought! Some people might intend on doing other activities rather than murder. They can bomb skyscrapers, start a enormous forest fire that would burn all night, hack into a international bank's account system.
However, I don't think there would be revenges taken on their relatives' death.
I mean, if you care about your son/daughter you probably would want them to be staying by your side. You wouldn't want them to wander on the streets on a purge night would you? Unless your whole family were already spotted by your neighbors, then you would die along with your son/daughter.
Purge nights are only one per year, so you will most likely to plan the next victim of yours next year right after the night ends. You've got all year to plan that shit, nothing could go wrong, literally. Nobody can stop you from killing that bitch on the purge, or all the family members of him/her, for that matters.
YOU! I would fear you. Cause really...what's the point of stealing from someone's house when you could just steal from stores and get brand new items instead? New games coming out? I'll just wait until the purge and get it for free. food restaurants would be the only places to not suffer because you'd think they would be smart enough to be closed for a week prior so that they can sell the remaining food and not have any new shipments until the purge is done. :p it just doesn't make sense. I'm not a blood thirsty murderer, it's just not moral but all of a sudden on this day, everyone is? Hell yeah I'd be a thief but damn, taking someone's life?
***** it was an example? Why would I do that? Why would anyone do that :p
***** Don't people do the same thing on black friday?
I think the premise could be expanded on to make more sense. like there would be no prisons, or trial system in this world if you where caught committing a crime your dead. so people waiting until purge night would make more sense. It would be a nice touch if in the next movie they mention special Purge sales in stores so people would have less to steal, and wouldn't have to risk going out to loot with other murderers.
