Joe McGovern
For most of the film, returning writer-director James DeMonaco favors gore and shock inserts of music over the edgy, nasty parody for which the material seems ready made.
Wesley Morris
DeMonaco is more interested in scenarios than in stocking them with human beings. Everybody here is a backstory in a T-shirt.
Michael Nordine
Grillo's performance will make you wonder why he didn't start headlining movies like this before turning 50; his is the soft-spoken kind of charisma that helped make half of the Expendables into stars back in the '80s and '90s.
Bilge Ebiri
The Purge: Anarchy is basically a slasher movie in which society is the deranged killer. It plays like it's already a grindhouse classic - dark, dirty, and disreputable.
Adam Graham
"The Purge: Anarchy" is more in line with what people going to a "Purge" movie would want out of a "Purge" movie.
Tirdad Derakhshani
An equally effective, deliciously disturbing movie.

James Berardinelli
It is better than the first film in almost every way but that doesn't mean it's appreciably smarter or has appeal to those who like meat on their action-oriented bones.
User reviews
Not Scary A lot of people say this movie is scary but I don't think so. I want a movie that gets me out of my seat with fright and this didn't do the job. It was more violent than anything else. It was also very predictable. Like the car breaks down and the get caught in the purge. Seriously not impressed.
