Never watched a purge movie. Should I?
For some reason I never got into them. Which is weird because they seem like my kind of movie.
Should I binge them? Which order? What should I know beforehand, etc?
The only two good ones are the Purge: Anarchy and Purge: Election Year. You can watch those two and skip the rest.
shareagreed. frank grillo rocks!
shareYup.
I always tell people that Purge; Anarchy is basically Frank Grillo LARPing as The Punisher during the Purge. From that absolutely badass armored-up Charger to his arsenal of kick-butt equipment, and his no-nonsense approach, it was a real joy to watch someone like that take of care business during the Purge.
No pussyfooting around, no moralizing the situations. It was straight to the butt-kicking.
I felt his power-level was lessened a bit during Election Year, and there was more of a racial focus to the events, but it was still a pretty decent action-thriller.
