New Order Reviews
De verdad a alguien le gustó una historia clasista como esta?
Whoa. Ok, this movie should Never get the high rating it has- it's simply for how provocative the subject matter is. Everyone should watch this movie ONCE- You'd never want to watch it again and you'd probably not want to add it to your collection, I don't plan on keeping it after ripping it from the library.
This is one of the best political movies ever made. It's not made for entertaining, which is why some critics knock it. It's not about Mexico. It's about what can and had happened in the real world. It can happen anywhere and to anyone, and that realness is terrifying. If you don't get the ending (I didn't) Reddit explains. You can't appreciate the movie without understanding the ending...
This movie terrorized me. Werewolves and xenomorphs, I can handle, but the gory realism of this movie is equivalent to experiencing a real life hurricane or a tornado. Note that people who disliked the movie quote the very same reason
Excelent movie. It shows that a revolution has consequences... The ones offended usually are mexican leftists that are mad that their beloved revolution is no romanticized.
Clearly it was made to cause controversy but the movie is thankfully very clear eyed and merciless in its depiction of revolutions and their aftermath.
Finally a movie that says the things as they are. I read that the director faced a lot of criticism about the stereotypes and the excessive violence it presented. If we don't want to see the reality, this is doesn't mean it's different. The movie can remind you about medieval era where people were simple instruments for the ruler's. It can remind you as well about the fierce fight for independence. It has been reported that the heroes were not always vertuous. This is definitely not a Hollywood movie, nor even a Bollywood or grand distribution film. This is the reality for the people that are willing to consider it. Did the human nature changed? I don't think so.
A film utterly lacking focus and imagination that managed to be both chaotic and predictable at the same time. No real character development, just people taking advantage of and brutalizing everyone around them. In his zeal to make the audience uncomfortable, the director perfectly forgot the importance of story. "New Order" is forgettable,
GREEN MONDAY The revolution will be bathed in, uh, green. An odd choice, and one that may excite environmentalists until it becomes quite clear that "New Order" is all about class struggle, and not climate change. In his visceral dystopian Mexico City tale, director Michel Franco pushes buttons, many, many buttons. Class discrepancy is on crystal clear display via the glamourous wedding reception opening, interrupted by a former employee's desperate plea of funds to save his dying wife. Greeted with faint empathy, some not so well-disguised contempt, and an unsatisfactory handout, he is briskly and discretely ushered off the premises. When the heart of gold princess bride to be gets a whiff of the events, she bolts the mansion to save the day. The disrupted nuptial festivities is soon the least of the elites' niggling problems, as revolutionaries storm the grounds and matters get nasty mighty quick. Touching similar themes (and cinematic flare) as "Parasite", "New Order" captures the explosive desperation when the haves meet the have-nots on level ground. Digging deep to turn the classes upside down, the focus is on the inherent greed and situational compassion dichotomy lurking in most everyone. It is uncomfortable, disruptive, vicious, anxiety inducing, and bluntly shocking. But unlike "Parasite", there are no moments of levity. No amusing interludes. No time to digest the revolving, evolving struggle. Barely time to take a breath. Many factions are involved, taking turns ruling the day, with corruption and merciless brutality the only common threads. It is a bleak, ninety minute commentary on a world that doesn't seem too far away, creating a provocative, powerful film. The dystopia of fiction past is unfortunately an unsettling present day proposition in many parts of the world. How it plays out is anyone's guess. Franco's is now on the big screen. - hipCRANK
Stopped watching after 20 minutes! Nothing happens!
Merciless, unforgiving and striking no one gets out of here unscathed. Strongly directed and edited with no slow point and an entertaining premise, it manages to install uneasiness in a new daily order. Maybe the only problem might be that it sometimes does not feel clear where it was going all along and end on a brutal yet unclear note. But a very effective movie with strong visuals about class struggle.
Clearly it was made to cause controversy but the movie is thankfully very clear eyed and merciless in its depiction of revolutions and their aftermath.
This is the most non sense movie I've ever seen, at some point the movie just get tedious and it's increíble the lack of reality you see in this movie, the way Franco portraits Méxicoa working class is just sad
worst movie that I have yet to watch this year. The world in the future is more integrated, where humans are deeply more connected to each other and nature, yet this world view is divergent from the path that most people believe in. Where are the morals? There is no faith, even though we are all God's children, this shows no compassion, no human dignity, no appreciation for life. Pure dumbness, pure stupidity, and whoever directed this, clearly did not think through the details. I had high hopes for this movie, but it is a major let down.
Pésima película. Ahórrense su tiempo y no vean esta basura.
A gut wrenching film about societal collapse and class war. This film will sit with you for days after viewing.
This is a bold and disturbing film. There's an incredible feeling of truth and credibility about New Order, a nightmare come true at a country level, not only for the rich but for everyone. It starts so strong, I just wish we cared more about the characters, as we lose interest little by little for them and the story.
