Review of The Purge: Anarchy (2014) by Nilufer R — 31 Oct 2015

I liked the first Purge film enough to warrant me watching its sequel on Halloween. The first film was quite short and I even commented on how they could have expanded it a little, so a sequel made sense.

They did expand on the concept of The Purge quite a bit more in this sequel and I liked that. I felt that the story was pretty good, but since you never really got to know the villains it was hard to root for them at all.

The film was scary at times, but involved way more gun violence than a typical horror film has (save the guns for action films). Overall, this sequel was a worth while watch during the Halloween season, but it was nothing too special in my opinion.
