okay, I'm not going to spend a lot of time bashing this film. It didn't work for me...at ALL, but other people enjoy it and I won't belittle their opinions.
However, I wanted to discuss one of my problems with this movie. It was that the way
[Show spoiler]the neighbors acted when they attacked. Especially Grace, the main one. They acted like they were drugged or Stepford people or something. Okay, so maybe you decide to get out this hostility toward your neighbor, but they didn't act mad, and sure didn't seem at all conflicted about their actions. No, they just walked in like zombies, and acted and spoke like they were high or something.
For that matter, the way ANYONE participating in the purge acted. It's supposed to be about releasing your anger and hate, but the boyfriend, the neighbors, the invading preppy kids... everyone... was calm and relaxed like they were just under a spell or something.
