Amerika Új Alapító Atyái meghívnak téged az éves Megtisztulás ünnepére. Ezen az éjszakán minden bűn törvényessé válik 12 órára. Míg az előző rész, A bűn éjszakája egy család sorsát követte nyomon a Megtisztulás végzetes éjszakáján, az anarchia éjszakája egy csapat véletlenül összeverődött ember viszontagságainak krónikája a bűn éjszakáján a pokollá változott városban, ahol minden sarkon újabb veszély, és újabb fordulat leselkedik.

Jelentősen jobb, mint az első, a negyedik csillagot fontolgattam. Érzékenyebb a karakterekhez, izgalmasabb, okosabban megírt és a vége felé jobban kidolgozott. Találóbb az amerikai kapitalizmus provokatív kritikájaként is. Sötét és komor, kellemetlen valósághű téma és szórakoztató thriller tempó, rengeteg lövöldözéssel. Egy kicsit videojátékra emlékeztet, amelyben egy lepukkant, veszélyes éjszakai városon át lövöldözéssel kell átjutni a biztonságba.

The more space the characters have to move around, the more space they have to behave like morons. If anything, I have to acknowledge that the second Purge at least tries not to copy the first episode and makes better use of its initial premise, though its hollowness hasn’t changed at all since the previous one, but whatever. What bothered me the most were the characters, in particular the mother with her daughter, who were very annoying. In contrast, Frank Grillo was fine and I wouldn’t mind if he was the only protagonist, and the entire second Purge was only about his journey across the chaotic city towards his rightful revenge. Another thing that bothered me were the moments where the creators probably think they are delivering a sharp social satire (the scene of the auction, in particular, is utter nonsense), but they actually don’t say anything at all about society, because their world stands on a very wobbly logic. But overall, I have nothing against this film, it’s an inoffensive and eager B-movie.

For me, definitely better than the first part. More likeable characters, especially Frank Grillo, who produces plenty of corpses, amazing pace, the film gets going from the beginning and doesn't let up until the end, solid bad guys and very disturbing masks. I have to say that at times I was scared of the bastards who enjoy killing, and of course the twist in the final third was very satisfying. So for me, I'm very satisfied and I finally know why the film is not just called The Purge 2. 80%

In my opinion, weaker than the more intimate first movie. While it has likeable characters and a great intro that manages to evoke an atmosphere of hopelessness and the fear of ordinary people in the face of an impending storm exactly as I would have wanted throughout the rest of the film, as the minutes tick by, DeMonaco turns the story into a B-grade action video game where the heroes run around the city and seemingly complete new missions at random. The "climax" in this respect is the dark and opaque shootout at the very end, which pretty much says it all. The only thing I enjoyed is the idea of rich men using The Purge to capture random people and then hunt them down in an enclosed arena, purely for fun and, of course, for money. 50%

The Purge: Anarchy is certainly not a great step towards realizing its potential. DeMonaco is riding his action spectacle, which surprisingly isn't as gritty or brutal anymore. In this regard, the film has lost some of its edge, and there aren't scenes here that really grab me anymore. That's a shame because I'm sure that with such a setting and premise, it could definitely be possible. The ending is just a classic form of satisfaction that doesn't really push any boundaries.
