Spoiler alert (for life) - of course they can…
Spoiler alert (for the film) - …but this is something that one has to learn on their own; this movie ultimately says that no, if two people enjoy each other’s company, then, no matter how long it takes, but sooner or later they will be together.

Suddenly, in Europe, Netflix has added to its catalogue all the films from The Purge franchise. I had already seen the first one, which I loved - twice -, but I was missing all the sequels. Well… I don’t think it was a good idea to see them this close to the US Presidential elections.

There are those travellers who, while on holiday in a different country, try to absorb as much as possible of the local culture, and even when they get to their hotel room at night, they watch the local television programs. And then there are those travellers who go; ‘Let’s see what horror films the local Netflix catalogue proposes’.

I’ll end up watching fewer films just to comply with this obligation faster… just joking.

I’m already very late with the publication of this post, so let’s move straight to the films!
