Review of The Purge: Anarchy (2014) by Guywhoreviews — 17 Jul 2014
The Purge: Anarchy may not be amazing, but it's a huge step up from the first movie. The Purge: Anarchy focuses on 5 characters. The first two are a couple named Shane and Liz who are driving to one of their sister's house in Los Angeles to wait out the Purge when their car is sabotaged and breaks down in the downtown area.
Meanwhile, police sergeant Leo Barnes goes out into the streets to get revenge on the man who killed his son. The last two are a mother and daughter, Eva and Cali, who are rescued by Leo after a group of men breaks into their house and attempts to kidnap them.
The five people meet up and attempt to survive the night together. The concept of this movie is great, meanwhile the movie itself doesn't execute it as well as it should. The plot is pretty interesting including a lot more thrill than the first movie.
The people purging are more exciting and although it doesn't give a lasting scare, this movie still does have some good jump scares. If you liked the first Purge movie or thought it was okay you will enjoy this movie.
Don't expect too much, but the concept and the plot of this movie are very interesting to watch.
