Above average, but no masterpiece

I would say the movie is above average, but it's not a masterpieceJude Law is really good in his role as this weary and seasoned FBI agent. I like the supporting cast members. I think Nicholas Hault actually looks a lot like Bob Matthews (based on his picture, which I saw on Wiki), and the young sheriff who works with Jude Law is good too. The movie's scenery is gorgeous, with the forests, mountains, and lake. I like the score too. There is an overall dark and gritty vibe throughout the filmThe movie doesn't reach greatness because of the plot and predictability. I know that the events are based on a true story, so I get that the plot was limited since they had to follow the events that really occurred (note: I had never heard of Bob Matthews or the Turner diaries until I watched this movie). But they telegraphed some events, such as one character's death, way too obviously. I also feel that the film could've given more about the villain's motivations other than "they're evil racist white men." The movie early on shows a divide between Bob Matthews group and another white supremacist group: the latter believes that the right way to push white supremacy is through legal means, such as getting white supremacists elected to office. I feel this plot thread could have been explored more. The police scenes include some cliches tooLastly - there was no need to insert politics at the very end, with a reference to January 6th, 2021.

GRIPPING THRILLER WITH BRILLIANT TURNS BY HOULT AND LAW

Jerry Kurzel's solid, gripping, well executed fact-based crime thriller about domestic terrorism perpetrated by a white supremist group known as the Order. In 1983 in the Pacific Northwest a veteran federal agent named Terry Husk, marvelously played by Jude Law, believes that a series of violent bank robberies, counterfeiting, and armored car rip-offs are being done by a new dangerous group of young separatist white supremists that are led by an icy radical leader, Bob Mathews, brilliantly played by Nicholas Hoult in an impressive performance, who is amassing vast monies from these robberies to build an army to attack the U. S. government. What follows is a suspenseful and deadly game of cat and mouse between Husk's FBI team and Mathews' lethal group. Astute direction by Kurzel, with superlative supporting performances by Tye Sheridan, Marc Maron, Jurnee Smollett, George Tchortov, and Danny Yip. Outstanding cinematography by Adam Arkapaw, and an effective score by Jed Kurzel.

You Get What You Order

The Order is a mostly paint-by-numbers crime drama with some solid execution.I don't have too much to say about this film since it's actually not really stand-out in any way. It's at its best when focused on the life and times of members in The Order and fleshing out this world of the rural pacific northwest. Nicholas Hoult is having a hell of a year and this is another great performance to add to the resume for the year. Everyone is was just okay performance-wise but there has to be some blame on the writers for leaning so deeply into the hard-boiled detective tropes. Sometimes the FBI officers just act way too-cool-for-school and it shows some laziness on the writers' part. A nice foil to that is Jamie (Tye Sheridan) who does a fantastically accurate impression of a small town cop. I'll be a defector and say that I actually enjoyed the action sequences, and I like that details within action plot points have actual effect later in the story. I'm getting a lot of No Country For Old Men influence, and that's a good thing.The film has a really good handle on itself with a steady mix of tension building and discovery until the third act in which themes muddy significantly. There was some kind of two-sides-of-the-same-coin subtheme being attempted in the end between Terry and Bob that didn't really work for me, and cops suddenly lose all the discipline they had earlier in the film to do action hero things. There is a whole lot of world building in the film that adds to the whole rural aesthetic but I wonder if it contributed to its slow pacing. The film certainly felt long for a less than 2 hour movie.Enjoyable crime thriller with some salient themes of racism and uprising to think about.
