If 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) UniversalIf You Like this movie you can streaming The Purge movie without downloading HERE

Review For The Purge
DeMonaco clearly hopes to make a significant moral statement on the level of Shirley Jackson's literary masterpiece The Lottery. Alas, his aim at political conservatives who support the gun lobby falls flat before he can pull the trigger.Rex Reed-New York Observer
If The Purge is as far-sighted as Network proved to be, we are in for very ugly times.
David Thomson-The New Republic
That old horror-movie standard, a homestead besieged by psychos, gets remixed with a bit of Occupy-era class-conflict satire in the disappointing future-set thriller The Purge.
Leslie Felperin-Variety
Gimmicky chiller lacks the robustness and distinction needed to support its social-commentary ambitions.
Neil Young-Hollywood Reporter
The blunt instrument plot allows for a few sneaky moments of satire and social commentary lite.
Peter Hartlaub-Hearst Newspapers
When critics bemoan the dumbing down of movies, they're talking about stuff like The Purge.
James Berardinelli-ReelViews
DeMonaco makes his point, but it's one that only resonates in the improbable scenario he's concocted.
Margot Harrison-Seven Days
The premise is intriguing but the movie is pretty disgusting. If it really had something to say about violence in our society okay, but it's just there for entertainment so beware.
Pete Hammond-Movieline
Writer-director James DeMonaco's The Purge fritters away its promise in lurid, frenzied violence.
Michael Sragow-Orange County Register
The execution is lackluster in this subversive examination of contemporary suburban violence, which gradually drains the credibility from its intriguing if cynical futuristic idea.
Todd Jorgenson-Cinemalogue.com
Have you seen worse? Sure. I suppose you could call this efficient, but that stops short of being a recommendation.
Ken Hanke-Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)
Lacks the Strength of its Flimsy Convictions
Charles Koplinski-Illinois Times
It really oughtn't be quite this easy to screw up something as bog-standard as a home invasion thriller quite this thoroughly.
Tim Brayton-Antagony & Ecstasy
"The Purge" plays like a weak "Twilight Zone" episode whose message gets horribly muddled by its over-the-top violence.
Sean Means-Salt Lake Tribune
doesn't spend enough time with the characters to give us much insight beyond the bare necessities, so their eventual devolution into primordial self-protection feels more like genre machinations than psychological intrigue
James Kendrick-Q Network Film Desk
True to its title, "The Purge" is an unpleasant experience with no one to care about or root for. What you expect to happen happens. Like most home-invasion thrillers, it's more nauseating than frightening.
Glenn Lovell-CinemaDope
'The Purge' purges every trite home invasion scenario. That said, audiences will enjoy 'The Purge' more than critics. We're suckers for screeching villains, big explosions and victims getting their gory revenge.
Clay Cane-BET.com
A cerebral screamfest certain to give you goosebumps!
Kam Williams-AALBC.com
...the plot strains credulity to the breaking point, but it holds up, even through the violent, bloody ending.
Tony Medley-Tolucan Times
there's an interesting 'what if' scenario that makes for good conversation and speculation by the audience. However, the execution borderlines on silly
Kevin Carr-7M Pictures
A mediocre home invasion film whose implausible central plot device undercuts whatever point it was trying to make.
Scott Nash-Three Movie Buffs
Go primal or go home.
Willie Waffle-WaffleMovies.com
Despite some cliched horror characters and tropes, The Purge is recommendable to those who like the short, sweet, and cathartic violent enjoyment of a solid thriller.
Kofi Outlaw-ScreenRant
Feels like the speculative offspring from a shotgun marriage between real-life, tenuous policies and discordant bluster. From a political point of view, it invites you to the wedding, lets you decide on which side to sit and avoids any sermonizing.
