The Purge

I liked the movie and all but holy shit this family is so dumb you got the son letting in some random homeless guy, the daughter with her stupid boyfriend thinking killing the dad would win over the daughter, and the wife has the reaction time of a tortoise with the gun 🥴

it was okay… really really boring actually, the premise is better than the whole movie

movie was mid, would be no movie if they weren’t all dumb as a bag of rocks. matter of a fact

-parents didn’t pay attention for shit
-son was dumb as fuck
-mom was usuales, kicking and screaming but not actually fighting like she had kids to live for

3-3.5/10

Basically: Practicality without Empathy vs Empathy without Practicality

I know this is a horror movie but the whole story is an examination of Phronesis: Total practicality can’t exist without morality, because a world without empathy is ultimately unsustainable for everyone.

its okay, I dont feel it deserves the cultural cache its garnered and it feels more like that fact that it holds such a cache of ooh lets do that instead of it being cautionary is a bigger indictment of society then the movie set out to make

How does a film make me hate children more than the vicious masked killers?
