The great thrillers also veer into the categories of mysteries, action-adventure, horror, sci-fi, spy films, and both noir and neo-noir. Regardless, a movie this smart and ambitious isn't easy to dismiss.The Merriam-Webster dictionary defines a thriller as "a work of fiction or drama designed to hold the interest by the use of a high degree of intrigue, adventure, or suspense." When you think about the standout thrillers from this genre a film, you'd be hard-pressed to find any that do not meet this definition's description. Only Rhys Wakefield as a strangely polite, intelligent, grinning invader provides anything of human interest. The typical cat-and-mouse chases around the house rely on characters never looking in the right place at the right time, and it becomes clear that they're more important to the movie as representations than as sympathetic characters. The movie isn't quite as clever at its story and character level. It's impossible to watch and not wonder, "What would I do?" and "Is this right or wrong?" Or, worse, "What if it's a little of both?" The Purge is clever enough to begin asking these questions right away and to make the audience implicit in the discourse. His idea of the futuristic "purge" brings up many layers of ideas worth discussing.
Writer/director James DeMonaco, who previously wrote the screenplays for The Negotiator and the remake of Assault on Precinct 13, adds a new wrinkle to the "home invasion" subgenre here. The movie has a fascinating premise, but it's too dark for most teens, especially younger ones. Which Side of History?
