Sinopsis(1)
Basándose en el siempre explosivo universo que descubrimos en las dos entregas anteriores y que recaudaron más de 200 millones de dólares en la taquilla mundial, "Election: La noche de las bestias" revela un nuevo y aterrador capítulo de las doce horas de anarquía desenfrenada anuales debidamente aprobadas por los Nuevos Fundadores de América para mantener la grandeza del país. Hace dos años que Leo Barnes (Frank Grillo) decidió no cometer un lamentable acto de venganza en la Noche de las Bestias. Ahora es el jefe de seguridad de la senadora Charlie Roan (Elizabeth Mitchell) y debe protegerla durante la campaña presidencial, además de sobrevivir el ritual anual en el que pobres e inocentes se convierten en blancos. Pero una traición inesperada les deja en las calles de Washington D.C. durante la única noche en la que nadie puede ayudarlos. Deben sobrevivir hasta el amanecer... o ser sacrificados por el bien del Estado. (Universal Pictures España)

Me gustó más la naturaleza de supervivencia más íntima de Anarchy: La noche de las bestias que esta película de acción oscura sobre el rescate de una senadora que quiere acabar con toda esa «broma». Pero hay que decir que Elizabeth Mitchell es lo mejor de la película (Grillo ya está muy visto y el grupo de afroamericanos nada interesantes a su alrededor solo puede resultar genial para los espectadores afroamericanos). En cualquier caso, DeMonaco tiene más experiencia y hace mejor su trabajo que en la primera película. Su curso es rápido y la historia no es completamente predecible.

The ascending qualities of the series are topped off for the third time by a superior genre spectacle in which DeMonaco tightens the screws in every possible way, thus giving credit to an admittedly clichéd but meaningful plot that really puts a fire under the protagonists. He manages to play on several seemingly unrelated planes to artfully connect them, and above all, he treats the audience to a decent portion of detailed gore, wherein he has no issues shooting a woman in the face in full frame. Indeed, the genre's template and predictability remain, but the added value in the form of psychedelically bizarre scenes, uncompromising black trash and white power battles, along with the irrepressible Frank Grillo, takes it up a notch. In such a promisingly played game, I might cautiously for one more film.

The previous two Purges weren't great, but they were okay. The weaker writing was compensated by decent action, which made the films watchable. The third excursion to the ever more awesome United States was considerably worse. The filmmakers, under the influence of political correctness, put together a perfectly balanced cast, so the only ones who could still complain are the Asians. The action wasn’t very impressive this time, the monologues and dialogues were downright stupid, the characters’ actions made no sense, and I don't even know what made me give the film two stars.

I wasn't expecting it, but the third sequel managed to inject new blood and formal spark into one of the most interesting horror premises of recent years. This time it's full throttle from the start, the night streets filled with twisted violent souls really make the blood run cold at times and the story around the unwanted senator "on the chopping block" makes sense from the beginning. Plus there’s the nicely headstrong Grillo, the attractive Mitchell and a bunch of supporting good guys, whom we won't wish death on either. All minus points are due to the ending, which perhaps unnecessarily inflated the originally purely economic subtext of The Purge into a crazy religious fervour and bought so many clichés regarding the action itself that it completely ruined the atmosphere and some of the unpredictability. But still, even tanking into account the zero expectations, quite a pleasant surprise; for a moment I even considered a higher rating. 70%

I found the second part more suspenseful and climactic, while the third part has a political touch, more craziness and better props. There's quite a lot of action, but it's mostly gunplay, so it's more likely to satisfy fans of shootouts than horror films focusing on effective deaths. On the plus side, Frank Grillo is again a likeable character who is no stranger to action and the icing on the cake is the Nazi bad guy, with whom he puts on a decent knife fight. There is blood, but given the theme and the number of killers, there could have been much more of it. I was more impressed with the trailer, the film itself didn't have as much of a perverse impact on me as the trailer did, yet this is a franchise that has the chops to rank up there with competitors like Saw or Final Destination. I'm not at all opposed to further installments, this year The Purge will hopefully be at the top though hopefully more towards the bottom of the list. Story 5/10, Atmosphere 7/10, Gore 7/10, Visuals 7/10, Action 7/10, Suspense 6/10,Humor 2/10. Entertainment 8/10, Scares 1/10. 75%.
