This crime thriller wants to deny us relief.
The Order is about hate, though not quite in the way you'd expect. It seems an obvious theme, given the story follows a white supremacist terrorist cell and the FBI's effort to stop them, and some space is given to the hateful doctrine they live by. But the movie is less interested in hate ideologically as it is in the feeling. And director Justin Kurzel is less interested in explaining that feeling than he is in observing it and its effects.
The lives of both men are defined by hate. Bob has adopted hate as his ethos and used it to build a community, albeit a destructive one. He has a family and friends; he is trusted to lead. Husk, who spent his career fighting organized crime, has been consumed by his pursuit of the hateful. His family won't return his calls. He has one strained friendship with another Agent , and we gather from their conversations that he was once, but is no longer, in charge.
While It Entertains, The Order Is Also Sending Us A Message Two Key Scenes Keep Us On Edge Even After It Ends In thinking of what this thriller accomplishes, and how it stands out from others like it, I am drawn to two moments. One is an image: Husk has taken to the wilderness with a hunting rifle, and is crouched down with a stag in his sights. Unbeknownst to him, Bob is just behind him, looking through his own scope at the FBI Agent on his trail.
