I watched all three films in this Purge franchise and reviewed the earlier two on the Austin Public Library site. Perhaps I wasn't sure what, exactly, to make of the first two films. The first one came across as an intriguing cross between a home invasion thriller mixed with dystopian themes. The second film expanded the dystopian thimes, and part 3 certainly felt timely: The film arrived at the Redbox ten days before the real world 2016 presidential election. So make what you will of the franchise's politics.
