The Wrath of Becky is a direct sequel to the 2020 cult thriller Becky. It is an American action thriller released in 2023. Co-directed by Matt Angel and Suzanne Coote, the film features Lulu Wilson reprising her role as Becky, who is older and tougher. The film furthers the bloody mayhem of the original but adds an added politically charged narrative of heightened stakes.

The story starts with a recap of events three years after the first film’s storyline. Now 16, Becky lives off the grid with a kind woman named Elena who has adopted her. Life seems to have finally settled into something resembling peace, but is interrupted when a far-right extremist group called the “Noble Men” raid their home. The group murders Elena and kidnaps Becky’s pet dog Diego.

These captured slaughters relight a fury in Becky that had yet to be exstinguished. In a fervor of grief and vengeance, she sets out on a relentless crusade to locate the Noble Men. Becky is no longer merely a traumatized girl fighting for her life. She has transformed into a focused soldier. Her quest for revenge leads to the shock of the Noble Men: they are planning an assassination of a progressive U.S. senator named Hernandez, who symbolizes everything they stand against.

Lulu Wilson as Becky

Wilson showcases incredible vigor in reprising her role. The once frightened teen, “Becky” has transformed into a ferocious force. Wilson’s performance is filled with youthful sarcasm and emotional depth, tangible vengeance, and dramatic weight that effortlessly carries the film on her back. She certainly proved that she has the chops to pull off an action-heavy story, as her presence adds dramatic weight to the narrative.

Seann William Scott as Darryl Jr.

Scott, known for his quirky comedic roles takes a dark turn here as the cold-hearted and cunning manipulator of the Noble Men. His performance is chillingly restrained and diverges from his usual work which makes this portrayal all the more special. Scott embodies ideological hatred robed in charisma, and hate-worthy villains who are all the more memorable.

Burse’s warm presence in the film’s early scenes evokes stark contrast with the violence that follows. Elena is Becky’s guardian and the emotional anchor of her brief stint at a peaceful life, and her death serves as a thrust of chaos into the narrative, making it all the more gut-wrenching.

Jill Larson as Darryl Sr.

As an ominous figure within the ranks of the extremists, Larson plays a background role that adds to the generational angle to the underlying narrative of hatred the Noble Men embody.

Siegel as Kate Montana

Rebecca’s wrath spawns her first sequel, as previously stated, Siegel makes a cameo in the film’s epilogue as a CIA agent who is interested in Becky’s skills. This hints towards an additional sub universe within the story where installment(s) could follow depicting Becky’s institutionalized or operative-for-hire vengeance.

Step by Step Guidance

The owners edited with vigor that the sequel achieves a frenetic infusion of grindhouse violence and dark humor, making it feel alive. The film is fast-paced, evidently taking just over 80 minutes, and never extending beyond the time frame. Coote and Angel are co-directors. Engagement is guaranteed through mounting disputes.

Swain’s cinematography captures Becky’s LCAD with a sharp and vibrant palette of cooler shades. She, unlike other filmmakers, does not let herself get caught up in the bleak nature of the story. This allows the audience to escape the dull vibe coupled with gritty thrillers. The now chaotic imagery of a bold red and Becky’s foes’ icy bluish, fascist undertones curriculum counterpose creates a new reality.

Aim & Objective

Numerous themes swim beneath the surface of shattered bones, Becky’s Wrath tells a story of deep revenge and trauma radicalization youth: vengeance and violence. Far right extremism comes under a sharply critical deconstructive lens, and Becky, despite being portrayed as a violent figure tasked with defending hate, takes on the role of a morally grounded counterpart.

Her growth is an important aspect in the story. In the first film, she was a survivor who solely reacted to the situations she faced. In this sequel, she is proactive, strategic, anticipates the consequences of her actions, and is morally conscious. The shift in her character towards becoming an (albeit violent) avenger of justice depicts reasonably well how trauma can transform into strength, but also tell warning signs.

Actions & Violence

The film rushes headlong into violence and embraces it wholeheartedly. The methods Becky employs are brutal and artistic, but she always has intentionality behind her actions. Action sequences are hyped and choreographed with the right level of tension–the absurd and the surreal. At times it seems as though there’s glee in Becky’s cartoonish-like revenge, but it compliments the film’s tone and enables the victors to relish in her uncontested fury.

Reception

From audience reviews, The Wrath of Becky received mid-range favourable feedback. Most complimented the film for its fast pacing and stylised violence as well as Wilson’s Lulu’s captivating portrayal of the character. It was often labelled a sequel that improves upon its predecessor by deepening the development and agency of its main character.

While a few critics pointed out that the plot did not deviate much from the revenge-thriller framework, there was consensus that the film’s sharp satire and entertaining execution is what set it apart. Seann William Scott’s role was specifically mentioned for its striking over-the-top violence.

Reflection

The Wrath of Becky is a visceral, unrelenting sequel that amplifies almost every aspect of its predecessor. So far, it has been ruthless in its action, irreverent in its humor, politically charged, and nothing short of relentlessly exhilarating. Lulu Wilson is emerging as a bonafide star, and this role builds her case further, proving she has the presence and charm to lead a franchise. The film builds on its predecessor’s cult appeal and carves a bloody new trail that could easily invite more chapters in the saga.

At its core, it’s a tale of teenage rage and the will to survive—an explosive, vengeful spectacle for those in favor of extreme action with a stylized, unapologetic attitude. And Becky’s rage? Not just reasonable—this is only the start.
