The Order

L'Ordre est une obscurité cinématographique maîtrisée de manière solide pour un cercle très restreint de spectateurs (sombres). Similaire au scénario des Stigmates, mais moins axé sur la forme et davantage sur le contenu. Un film avec très peu de chances de succès commercial. (01/04/2003)

This was stupid. I wonder what horrible thing happened to Brian Helgeland to write (this in particular) and direct something as stupid as this "combination" (meaning an irrational mishmash that doesn't know what it is) of all possible film genres. Content-wise, from my point of view, it was about absolutely nothing, it didn't even look that great, and there were so many unintentionally funny moments that I lost track of them. Get this out of here. This movie would make a glutton choke on it. (15/11/2012)

It was as if the film was trying to say something, but I didn't end up finding out what it was. I was glad to see Heath in another film that I hadn't seen yet, but this wasn't a movie that I'll remember him for. A bit of horror, a bit of exorcism, a bit of critique of the church, but overall just nothing memorable. (09/01/2017)

For fans of mainstream entertainment, it is slightly unsophisticated and lacking artistic ambition. For fans of B-movies, on the other hand, it is unattractive and essentially boring with a bizarre storyline. However, Brian Helgeland tried to handle the problematic script as best as possible, and I wouldn't deny the film its atmosphere. Overall impression: 35%. (11/04/2009)
