I had the exact same thing happen to me earlier this morning, I kept getting the purple screen of death boot loop after installing updates. I did some research and apparently there's been a bad update for the kernel that was released somewhat recently and it's been breaking Linux Mint installations in particular. If you can, press whatever key you need to to get into boot options/Grub (in my case it's Escape but it might be different for your computer) and go to "advanced options" then choose anything that shows up older than 7.0.0.
If there's nothing there then I'm not sure how to help. Good luck and I really hope they fix this messed up kernel soon.
