Adela (Ana de la Reguera, Cowboys & Aliens) and her husband Juan (Tenoch Huerta, Days of Grace) live in Texas, where Juan is working as a ranch hand for the wealthy Tucker family. Juan impresses the Tucker patriarch, Caleb (Will Patton, Halloween), but that fuels the jealous anger of Caleb’s son, Dylan (Josh Lucas, Ford v Ferrari). On the morning after The Purge, a masked gang of killers attacks the Tucker family--including Dylan’s wife (Cassidy Freeman, HBO’s The Righteous Gemstones), and his sister (Leven Rambin, The Hunger Games), forcing both families to band together and fight back as the country spirals into chaos and the United States begins to disintegrate around them.

Critics Consensus

The Forever Purge fails to fully engage with its most frighteningly timely themes, but the franchise remains largely -- albeit bluntly -- effective.

Audience Says

It's more predictable and less satisfying than some other Purge movies, but franchise fans looking for action will find it here.

Kermode & Mayo's Film Review

Wry and satirical...a blunt tool that works rather well.

Observer (UK)

It's a timely argument against self-regulation instead of safeguards, and an admonishment of a government that views human collateral damage as an inevitability.

Rated: 3/5

Ed Power

Daily Telegraph (UK)

A visceral rip-roarer, it plays out like Max Mad crossed with The Walking Dead - but amid the spurting jugulars and the gunsmoke, director Everardo Valerio Gout chucks in barrel-loads of idealism.

Dadly the most forgettable one yet. Cool idea, some actually really unique set pieces , & even two good leads that I could get behind, but the rest of it all? Feels very tame & not as crazy in comparison to the other films.

The Digital Fix

It’s a decently fun movie that hints towards a whole new Purge storyline in the future, but in the grand scheme of things, it isn’t anything revolutionary.

Good Trump commentary on racism and xenophobia but very predictable. Not best costumes and bad camera work, too close so hard to know dimensions of what's going on.
