Is it nikka hunting season again? Yes, the return of the Purge. Where one day of the year, to reduce crime. It becomes legal to kill. Now as is stated there are spoilers. If you don't wanna know, read no further.
Now, this time, they ain't hunting nikkas. They getting their Ryan Gosling/Karl Malone on and hunting little Mexican/Latina girls. A woman named Eva and her annoying daughter. The other two who are hunted are a married white couple who have some major martial issues. The star of this is Frank Grillo who plays a charcter name Sergeant. He's basically carries this film with his acting. He's a mysterious character because of instead hiding like everybody else he's on the streets while the Purge is on. You find out at the end of the film why?
Bottom line, I felt like did at the end of the 1st. 70% average below average movie. Then the last 30 minutes it's what it should have been the whole movie. Just about every stereotype of horror films is in this. Character falling down and can't walk. Screaming, crying, yelling. Basically, the Latina women (mother and daughter get hunted. They get resuced and you spend the next hour with them, the White couple and Frank Grillo.
The problem with this film is there is no good villians. You see glimpes of potential villians. The biggest one with potential is in advertisement of this movie
. So yeah, there are killings but none make you like "Dang, that was cold. Did you see what he did to so and so? It's just stabbings, shootings and you have no connections nor emotions.
Other problem is Frank Grillo should have been by himself. Story would have been way more interesting if he turned into your typical action hero/horror film hero. But he has to drag these 4 idiots which basically slow him down. And the ironic thing is he tells them "If you slow me down, I'm cutting you off". But he never does. Now, at times the married couple at times has some humor. But the Latina's women daughter really ruins this movie. Constantly asking dumb questions like a little kid. Trying to preach Grillo about the Purge. Just annoying.
But as I said the last 30 minutes are satisfactory. Way more action where Frank is good. One surprise character really steals the show. For the Wire fans, you will be satisfied with whom it is.
The ending was cool. But it's not enough to save this film to be considered good. But bottom line if you like the 1st one. You might like this one a little better. Since it's not just in one place. But going around the city. Though it's pretty pointless at times. Bad acting between the Latinas. And overall just making the same mistakes of not delivery like the first. C-

A character by the name of God. He and gang walk around with masks. And look dope but they never develop them into a killer team. You'll find out why at the end

That nikka Omar came in there and crush the buildings. He plays a revolutionary who is against the Purge. Has a band nikkas with guns who go around killing these rich white folks. When he and his crew appears it's one of the best parts of the film
