Conceived six years ago, Michel Franco's near-future dystopia feels ripped from headlines that haven't yet been written. While protests rage in the streets, Marianne's high society family prepares for her wedding. At first, only splatters of green paint and the appearance of Rolando, a former employee seeking emergency medical funds, intrude on the festivities. But soon the party is unable to keep the reckoning at bay, and what follows is a swift disintegration of law and order defined first by class lines, then by disastrous government recapitulation.

Tara Brady Irish Times A fascinating, stylish, uncompromising thriller for all its repugnant prejudices: punk rock movie-making for the ruling elite. Rated: 3/5 Aug 13, 2021 Full Review Peter Bradshaw Guardian New Order very effectively persuades you that a real-life revolution might well be every bit as ugly, horrifying and un-Hollywood as this shows - and that it is on the way. Rated: 4/5 Aug 11, 2021 Full Review Trevor Johnston Little White Lies The refusal of hope is offset by a lack of platitudes, making this an antidote to complacency. Rated: 4/5 Aug 9, 2021 Full Review Rolando Gallego EscribiendoCine Once again, here's filmmaking bearing witness to what may happen, has happened, or will happen, in a totalizing cinematographic experience that resonates long after viewing. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 8/10 May 15, 2024 Full Review Amy Smith InSession Film Instead of being suggestive and sticking to entertainment, this film is dark and is more focused on telling the truth and showing it all. Rated: A- Feb 29, 2024 Full Review Ben Flanagan Vague Visages By the time Franco joins together strands that the audience will most likely have seen coming, New Order grinds to a halt.

Pete D wow. I haven't read any of the reviews or commentary of the film as I want to share my unique thoughts. This movie disturbed me more than any other film I've seen, in a good way. Everything that has happened in America in the past few years this movie is a cautionary tale to say the least. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/04/21 Full Review Roktrah Political criticism delivered with unrelenting brutality. Begins slow and ends with "wtf did i just watch?" impression. Nice movie for date night. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 06/02/21 Full Review Itzayana Horrible movie. It is realistic with a sadistic touch. It was our first time in a movie theatre after one year and a half and it felt horrible. Don’t recommend. Wanted to throw up afterwards. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 06/01/21 Full Review alex Weird movie. Lots of rapes and killings. Made me dislike mexico Rated 1 out of 5 stars 06/01/21 Full Review Mario Really surprised great movie from beginning to end Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/29/21 Full Review joel What I can only presume is the movie equivalent of being dropped head first into a blender. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 05/29/21 Full Review Read all reviews
