Seems ambitious but bites off more than it can chew. The whole class warfare struggle set against the backdrop of the annual Purge (where all crime is legal for 24 hours) wants to be edgy and topical but the characters are paper thin and the plot too predictable despite a few chilling moments. Overall, simply adequate, nothing more.

A marked improvement over the first 'Purge'. This time we take to the city streets in a non-stop action thriller set on the next night of 'Purging'. The political agenda is much more clear from the very beginning and it's carried through to a better climax. Though, the message does become just a one note repetition. There are enough new situations and ideas to offset that. I actually liked the main characters this time around, thanks to better characters and an entertaining cast. A few too many conveniences and predictable outcomes brings it down a bit. Still better than the first.

I saw the first one and liked it, mostly because of the originality and novelty. The sequel had no redeeming qualities. It was only about 90 minutes long but it dragged for me.

A squeal that doesn't even try. Remember last year with the first Purge movie and I really didn't like it, but this movie is nothing different. This movie is still filled with stupid characters that make stupid choices throw out the film. They is this one scene in this movie where these homeless people are hiding underground trying to get away from this horrible event and they are hiding in complete darkness and nobody can't see them. but these people with flamethrowers come underground chasing are main characters not seeing the homeless people, and then the homeless people got up from there hiding places, and started running in past them for no reason at all. Overall this movie is nothing much as a violent train wreck.
