Christopher McQuarrie ” “ THE STAR It’s the most extreme chapter [yet] in every department Tom Cruise ” “ THE BUZZ The helicopter sequence in Fallout looks spectacular Polygon ” The fourth movie in Blumhouse Productions’ highly rated horror saga takes us back to the very beginning of the controversial experiment known as The Purge, which allows Americans – for 12 hours every year – to commit any crime they like, including murder, without consequence. The first three movies were tense and bloody affairs, all extremely worthy of your time. But seeing the back-room machinations that led to the US government sanctioning the event – especially in these increasingly troubled times – plus the presence of Oscar- winner Marisa Tomei (as the doctor who comes up with the crazy concept), adds a layer of intrigue and acting clout to proceedings. It’s not all politics and no murder, though. This powerful prequel has plenty of the latter, too, as a test area’s inhabitants find themselves facing this devil’s choice for the very first time. The result is 100 minutes where you absolutely can’t take your eyes off the screen. 4 JUL
