Sinopsis(1)
El gobierno, ahora en manos de los Nuevos Fundadores de América (NFA), autoriza una Purga anual de doce horas para mantener el crimen por debajo del uno por ciento. Las comisarías y los hospitales cierran sus puertas, y durante una noche cada uno es libre de hacer lo que quiera sin temer consecuencia alguna. Ha llegado el momento de llevar la anarquía a las calles. (Universal Pictures España)

In my opinion, weaker than the more intimate first movie. While it has likeable characters and a great intro that manages to evoke an atmosphere of hopelessness and the fear of ordinary people in the face of an impending storm exactly as I would have wanted throughout the rest of the film, as the minutes tick by, DeMonaco turns the story into a B-grade action video game where the heroes run around the city and seemingly complete new missions at random. The "climax" in this respect is the dark and opaque shootout at the very end, which pretty much says it all. The only thing I enjoyed is the idea of rich men using The Purge to capture random people and then hunt them down in an enclosed arena, purely for fun and, of course, for money. 50%

Significativamente mejor que la primera, consideré la cuarta estrella. Más sensible hacia los personajes, más intrigante, guionisticamente más inteligente y más desarrollado al final. Más apto como crítica provocativa del capitalismo estadounidense. Una película oscura y dura, deprimente con una temática desagradablemente realista y entretenida con un ritmo de suspenso con muchos tiroteos. Es un poco como un videojuego en el que hay que llegar a un lugar seguro atravesando de noche una ciudad abarrotada y muy peligrosa con un arma en la mano.

Mejor, más emocionante, más interesante, más lleno de acción que la primera entrega. Los primeros veinte minutos prometen una mejor experiencia visual. La atmósfera de miedo, adrenalina creciente y nerviosa anticipación fue retratada de manera bastante convincente. Frank Grillo está muy seguro en el papel principal y ganó mi simpatía de inmediato. El grupo de la furgoneta resultó lo suficientemente aterrador e impresionante. Tal vez recortarlo a noventa minutos contribuiría a una mayor efectividad. En general, le doy tres estrellas y media, pero considerando que le di tres a la aburrida primera entrega, esta secuela la elevo hacia arriba. Estoy ansioso por una posible tercera entrega.

The more space the characters have to move around, the more space they have to behave like morons. If anything, I have to acknowledge that the second Purge at least tries not to copy the first episode and makes better use of its initial premise, though its hollowness hasn’t changed at all since the previous one, but whatever. What bothered me the most were the characters, in particular the mother with her daughter, who were very annoying. In contrast, Frank Grillo was fine and I wouldn’t mind if he was the only protagonist, and the entire second Purge was only about his journey across the chaotic city towards his rightful revenge. Another thing that bothered me were the moments where the creators probably think they are delivering a sharp social satire (the scene of the auction, in particular, is utter nonsense), but they actually don’t say anything at all about society, because their world stands on a very wobbly logic. But overall, I have nothing against this film, it’s an inoffensive and eager B-movie.

For me, definitely better than the first part. More likeable characters, especially Frank Grillo, who produces plenty of corpses, amazing pace, the film gets going from the beginning and doesn't let up until the end, solid bad guys and very disturbing masks. I have to say that at times I was scared of the bastards who enjoy killing, and of course the twist in the final third was very satisfying. So for me, I'm very satisfied and I finally know why the film is not just called The Purge 2. 80%

The Purge: Anarchy is certainly not a great step towards realizing its potential. DeMonaco is riding his action spectacle, which surprisingly isn't as gritty or brutal anymore. In this regard, the film has lost some of its edge, and there aren't scenes here that really grab me anymore. That's a shame because I'm sure that with such a setting and premise, it could definitely be possible. The ending is just a classic form of satisfaction that doesn't really push any boundaries.
