To push the crime rate below one percent for the rest of the year, the New Founding Fathers of America test a sociological theory that vents aggression for one night in one isolated community. But when the violence of oppressors meets the rage of the others, the contagion will explode from the trial-city borders and spread across the nation.

"Great movie"

Elizabeth Sanders
"Rich white people experiment on impoverished African Americans so they fight to the death and kill each other. A battle of racism vs family and friends ensues. The government in this movie is so damn racist and I hate them and want them to fail for being rigged from the start. A flawed but better Purge movie."
"Have not seen the others in the series yet but this prequel was actually much better than I expected. The characters were believable and the main characters sympathetic. Very disturbing though that the setting of the first purge “experiment” would be set in a housing project on Staten Island, mainly involving people of color while coordinated by white government officials, is very disturbing"
"This is hard. I liked but disliked this. It had a great story line until close to the end. The idea of "purging " .... I can see that but how they tracked people was not realistic. The ending seemed a bit rushed to finish it when there was so much more to develop in the storyline. Ok watch."
"unique concept for a horror movie that is fun"
