The Purge: Anarchy is a 2014 American social science fiction action horror film directed and written by James DeMonaco. It is the sequel to the 2013 film The Purge, and the second entry in The Purge Universe. The film stars Frank Grillo, Carmen Ejogo, Zach Gilford, Kiele Sanchez, Zoë Soul, and Michael K. Williams, while Edwin Hodge reprises his role of "The Stranger" from the first movie. It was released worldwide on July 18, 2014.The film is set on the night of March 21, 2023, and follows Leo, a sergeant who lost his son, as he plots a vigilante mission of revenge during the mayhem. However, his plans of vengeance are sidetracked as he becomes the unexpected protector of four innocent strangers who desperately need his help if they are to survive the night.In its expansion of setting (taking place in the Greater Los Angeles area) and depiction of the logic and implications of the Purge, the film seems to address many questions that the original film's premise generated. Are there really that many monsters around to make the Purge so successful? If everybody's preparing for Purge Night, how come so many people die? Why would your average monster wait a whole year to satisfy sadistic urges to murder and kill? How does it even work?This film answers a few of those questions, most notably showing that the Purge doesn't work — at least not the way people think it does...Followed by The Purge: Election Year. | |

| The Purge: Anarchy / int_1235f055 | comment |
Dirty Coward: In addition to the usual gaggle of psychopaths running around the streets on Purge night, there are wealthy people who don't risk their lives going out to Purge. Instead people either sell themselves to be purged by a specific family for an exorbitant sum, as Eva's father does, or the wealthy attend big parties where potential victims are rounded up for them by other Purgers. The wealthy then bid on who will kill these victims, all within the safety of their fortified mansions. This backfires dramatically when one of these groups kidnap Leo and his friends, who not only put up one hell of a fight against the Purgers, but ultimately get rescued when the Resistance storms the mansion. Roddy attempts to hold Liz at gunpoint to call his Ax-Crazy wife Lorraine's bluff to save his own skin, despite the fact that she's obviously not holding back. | |

Another day of Purge is going to come and he has to watch helplessly in a sickroom while his broke daughter and granddaughter anxiously prepare to defend themselves. What does he do? Sacrificing himself to the Purge, in exchange for a hefty sum of money for his family, of course. | |

Sequel Escalation: This film moves the story directly into the heart of The Purge rather than on the outskirts of it. It also extends the perspectives from just one family to several different groups (albeit coming together as the story goes on), as well as showing a wider array of antagonists, including the United States military and a gang of youths that capture civilians for an audience of wealthy people who then bid between each other for the chance to hunt the victims. | |

Curb-Stomp Battle: Leo deals these out like candy throughout the movie. There are other examples, however: After Shane is killed, this appears to be the case for the main group, as the rich Purgers have called in every bodyguard in their private army. However, this is subverted by... Carmelo Johns and his crew of revolutionaries. They outnumber the already considerable opposing force, and roll in with flashbang grenades and automatic weapons. They proceed to avert Hollywood Tactics hard by forming an orderly line with overlapping fields of fire, and wipe the floor with the unprepared group of guards. | |

Actionized Sequel: This sequel puts more emphasis on being an action thriller than the first film which leaned toward suspense. A good example would be the sequel's protagonist Leo being a gun-toting, Crazy-Prepared badass, reluctant Purger while the first film's protagonists, James and Mary Sandin, were a husband and wife who had little combat experience and were unprepared for what's coming to them as they initially attempted to stay out of the Purge rather then getting involved in it. | |

She starts the night arguing about her separation with Shane, before having to endure the horror that is the Purge. She almost has to lose Shane once, and she eventually does. All we see of her at the end is a sobbing wreck who mutters quite surely that she's participating in the Purge. | |

Many travel in packs armed to the teeth, roaming the streets ready to kill anyone they come across, while a lone sniper has considerable safety despite the fact he's alone due to him being on the roof of a tall building. Then there's a man wearing nothing but pants, boots and a kind of gimp mask, with PIG written on his chest. He's prowling the streets entirely by himself and armed with nothing but an axe. | |

Idiot Ball: Liz and Shane, who try to drive to Shane's sister's house when it's only hours until the Purge begins, and even stop to go grocery shopping, getting their car secretly sabotaged by Purgers in the process. If you watch it closely, you will find that when their car break down, it's on a completely vacant road, meaning that most people had common sense to stay off the roads and inside their houses much earlier than these two. Eva doesn't leave work until it's two hours from the Purge (this one might be justified in that she needs the money, and is looking forward to a raise). However, when she gets home, she decides to take a shower FIRST, THEN barricade the house. The barricade didn't work anyway, but shouldn't she make sure the house is safe first, THEN take showers or whatever? | |

What Happened to the Mouse?: Liz decides to take a step in badassery after Shane's death by joining the Purge and is never seen or mentioned again. Presumably, she survives the night since the Stranger has made a promise to protect her, but who knows? It is unknown what happened to Tanya's family after her sister murders her, forcing Leo, Eva, and the rest to escape. Seeing the NFFA death squad entering the building with door cutters in order to track down Eva, it is presumed that they all got killed. | |

Men Are the Expendable Gender: The death count heavily weighs on the men, although there are female casualties. Most of the villains and mooks the party encounters are male, though the Big Bad is surprisingly female. Shane is also the only main character to die by the end of the film. The only named female characters who die in the film are Tanya and the Hanover sisters. | |

While a year has passed, there's no indication the unemployment rate has jumped significantly.

Anarcho-Tyranny | |
| The Purge: Anarchy / int_e659eb7e | comment |
Anarcho-Tyranny: A sinister group called the "New Founding Fathers" have taken over the United States and established an annual nationwide event where crime - including violent crimes like murder - are legal for a 12-hour period, which began as a way to persecute the homeless and other vulnerable people and to maintain their grip on power. The Founding Fathers and their allies themselves are of course protected by armies of security personnel. | |

Hobbes Was Right | |
| The Purge: Anarchy / int_e96fe76d | comment |
Hobbes Was Right: Not so much. It turns out not enough citizens are actually willing to go out and kill their fellow human beings, so the government has to send out their own kill squads to rack up a higher body count. Not only this, but there is an entire organization devoted to fighting the NFFA and stopping the Purge. | |

Big Damn Heroes | |
| The Purge: Anarchy / int_eb81c601 | comment |
Big Damn Heroes: Contrary to what Eva's father said early on, the Resistance is the real deal, and their leader personally takes part in the raid on the wealthy Purgers, saving most of the protagonists from them in the process. | |

No Good Deed Goes Unpunished | |
| The Purge: Anarchy / int_eb8f64a6 | comment |
No Good Deed Goes Unpunished: Zigzagged. Leo stops his car to save Eva and Cali from the deathsquad, then reluctantly save Shane and Liz as well. As a result, his car is shot, and he cannot be where he initially want to be. He also gets shot a few times and almost killed at the end. However, spending the entire night protecting complete strangers seems to have changed him. He ultimately forgives the man who killed his son and apparently finds peace at the end of the movie. | |

Anti-Climax: The hyped-up motorcycle gang turns out to just be a pack of scavengers selling people to wealthy Purgers. They all pull a massive Karma Houdini and are never seen again after they get paid. | |

Choke Holds: Leo uses one to stop a Purger from finding his group. In a more realistic example, the Purger struggles hard and it takes Leo a while to KO him. | |
