Have been to the Chicago Field Museum a couple of times when I lived above the city (1976-79) and thought it really good, especially the T-Rex skeleton that greets You as You walk in and we only get glimpses of it in the film. **1/2
This movie is one of my guilty pleasures

never seen it. interesting to note: the creature was both a practical effect (physical) and for the running and jumping they used a CG creature.

The First Purge: maybe not an original comment, but The Purge-films do seem to get better with every installment. Though I do think the original film gets too much slack.

Guilty pleasure... Is that because of the (perceived/alleged) douchiness of the characters?
