Plot:
It is election time and Leo Barnes (Grillo) who was a police Sargent who turned vigilante during The Purge: Anarchy is now head of a government security team that is assigned to protect Senator Charlie Roan (Mitchell) who is running in the presidential race. Her primary mission if elected would be to eliminate the annual event "The Purge", the one day that gives people 12 hours to commit whatever heinous crimes and they will be legal. This is something that the counsel of founders do not want so this purge event will be the first time that political figures are not granted immunity, leaving Senator Roan as a target to be assassinated by whoever claims the prize. This also means that Leo has his work cut out for him because he must keep her alive so that she can hopefully win the election and keep himself alive while the streets are filled with blood from The Purge.
Reel Talk:
If you saw the previous 2 Purge films you pretty much know what to expect from this third installment to the purging experience, you know blood, violence and lots of senseless killings. Frank Grillo follows up his role from The Purge: Anarchy as the take no prisoner butt kicker Leo Barnes. Story wise this one is so much better than the second film and to be honest not as much gore. The Purge films has built up a strong fan base so they will enjoy this one as well. It is a busy film that will keep your attention so you won't get bored. A good weekend movie that is worth checking out if you're into the craziness of senseless violence.
